I had a lovely stay at the hotel with very clean rooms and friendly staff. The location is beautiful, overlooking the golf course and ocean, though you do need a car to get around. The dining options were good, but I was disappointed by the noise from the nearby music festival which impacted my relaxation. Overall, it offers great value for the price, but I'd recommend checking for events before booking.

My husband and I absolutely fell in love with this hotel! The serene surroundings and stunning design made us feel pampered from the moment we arrived. The pool areas are perfect for relaxation, and the staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the high-quality food, especially at breakfast, but we did encounter a couple of issues during our stay, especially with the room service. Overall, a lovely experience, though I wouldn't recommend staying during a music festival as it can get quite loud.

My stay at Sofitel Essaouira was truly magical. The staff treated us like royalty, and the location offered a serene escape from the bustling cities of Morocco. While the rooms were comfortable, they did show signs of wear which took away from the overall experience slightly. The dining options were excellent, especially the special birthday dinner, but I wished for a bit more variety in the breakfast spread. Overall, it felt like a great value for a luxurious stay.

This hotel is absolutely stunning, located in a beautiful part of Morocco with breathtaking views of the sea and a well-maintained golf course. The atmosphere is luxurious, and the staff's commitment to providing exceptional service really stands out. However, some aspects of maintenance and dining options could be improved, especially if you're expecting top-tier amenities. It's a great choice for a relaxing getaway if you appreciate stunning design and a serene environment.

The hotel offers beautiful spacious rooms with a nice view, but there's a noticeable lack of maintenance that needs to be addressed. I enjoyed the attentive service from the staff, especially in the dining area, which provided a lovely environment. However, the dining options were decent but nothing to write home about, and the facility upkeep left much to be desired, particularly in cleanliness.
