Riad Dar Bô | TC5027 | Bright, fully staffed 3 bedroom Riad with ocean views & two outdoor terraces as well as daily breakfast

Riad Dar Bô is situated next to a small and quiet square in the heart of the Medina of Essaouira, with views of the ocean from the roof terrace, and is less than a five-minute drive to the main beach, Plage d'Essaouira, which is lined with bars, restaurants and surf shops. The Medina itself is perfect for exploring as it is encompassed with small shops and stalls, as well as featuring colourful blankets, rugs and hand-crafted wooden artwork. Riad Dar Bô is offered for exclusive private rental and the price shown is for up to 10 guests on a bed and breakfast basis.

Riad Dar Bô's large and bright structure, along with its traditional elements, creates a modern oasis for guests to enjoy on their holiday. The Riad's interior uses natural materials with carved and polished wood, Berber textiles, and brick parquet flooring combined with tadelakt walls to create a truly authentic experience. The decor features abstract art juxtaposed with classic souk finds, hand-woven rugs and wall hangings that are sure to delight the eye.

Staff and Services:

Every morning breakfast will be served to guests and lunch/dinner is also available on request (this would be payable locally). All meals use local, fresh produce and traditional Moroccan recipes so you can get a real feel for the flavours of the country.

The property manager, Damien, will be there to greet guests when they arrive and see them off at the end of their stay. Guests will be given Damien's contact number and he will be on hand to help them throughout their stay.

Due to extensive knowledge of the town, its surroundings and traditions, the staff can recommend and organise day trips for you and your party to local places of interest, or activities such as cooking workshops, or a visit to a hammam.

Riad Dar Bô also has a non-resident maid who comes into the property to clean.

Accommodation:

Arranged over three floors, Riad Dar Bô combines both traditional architecture with a contemporary and stylish design and accommodates up to 10 guests in three en-suite bedrooms (one double bedroom, one triple bedroom and one large suite with a double bed and two single beds). Each bedroom offers a warm and rustic feel and most have handcrafted wooden beds with cotton canopies, helping to create a relaxed ambience.

The Riad has a spacious open-plan living area with an indoor fireplace, library and comfortable seating. There is also a dining space where guests can enjoy relaxed evening meals. It's cosy with a light and airy feel, making the indoor spaces great spots to congregate in when the sun goes down.

The light inner courtyard provides another place to relax and is furnished with comfortable rattan seating and an array of ceramic pots filled with succulents and other desert plants. The views of the winder staircase ascending the atrium to the glass ceiling are spectacular from here.

Outside:

Riad Dar Bô offers guests two separate outdoor terraces where you can relax, sunbathe and enjoy the meals that have been prepared for you.

Located on the roof top, the Ocean Terrace has excellent sun exposure, expansive sea views and is furnished with cushioned rattan sun loungers.

Located on the second level, the Chill Out Terrace offers guests both shaded and sunny areas. The large, cushioned, U-shaped sofa which wraps around an ovular table provides guests with a comfy seating area set in the shade, and depending on the time of day, the two hanging basket chairs can be found either in direct sunlight or shade.

Please note that pets are allowed on request.
