Essaouira

Authentic, elegant riad in Essaouira

The Palais des Remparts can be found at the heart of Essaouira’s wonderful, perfectly preserved medina, just three minutes’ walk from the beach. It takes its name from the huge fortification walls, or ramparts, in the old town. Its enchanting roof terrace is the highest point of the medina, offering visitors incomparable views across the rooftops to the far reaches of the Atlantic Ocean.

A charming, luxurious riad with authentic courtyard architecture in the heart of the coastal city of Essaouira, combining cultural delights with sea breeze.

Palais des Remparts

Palais des Remparts

Essaouira might well be the ideal place to start your first visit to Morocco. The wonderful, completely preserved medina is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The stunning souks, the port with snack bars serving fish in the evening, the cries of the seagulls and the crashing of the waves, the workshops at the foot of the Skala de la Kasbah walls where the country’s famous woodworkers ply their trade and, of course, the wind. Hints of history and its stories waft through this magical city.

The luxurious Palais des Remparts is a converted 18th-century town house built between the old city walls in a space of 400sqm. Since its renovation, it fits in perfectly with the classic forms of the traditional medina. It is one of the most elegant luxury riads in the coastal city of Essaouira. In the style of the local Moroccan architecture, the entire building is adorned with antique pillars and columns. In the magnificent courtyard, palm trees and green plants create an inviting natural atmosphere. A palace of hospitality.

The décor and fixtures in the rooms exude a simple elegance and reflect your hosts’ excellent sense of art and form. Its superb location allows visitors to explore the whole of the old town on foot, stroll along the vibrant beach promenade lined with restaurants and cafés, visit the picturesque fishing harbour, and enjoy wonderful sunsets and sunrises on the vast sandy beach.

  • Breakfast beneath palm trees in the light-filled courtyard
  • City tour of the historic medina
  • Golf de Mogador: rise to the challenge set by PGA champion Gary Player

To discover a hidden gem at Palais Des Remparts, seek out the rooftop terrace. This lesser-known spot offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding city and the Atlas Mountains in the distance. It’s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the medina below while enjoying a quiet moment of reflection or capturing stunning photos of the picturesque landscape. Whether you visit during the day to soak in the sunshine or in the evening to admire the sunset, the rooftop terrace at Palais Des Remparts promises a memorable experience that few tourists have the opportunity to enjoy.

A wonderful beach holiday.
