The holiday homes on this page are grouped under the name villas, and the label fits: each is a whole house, not a room. The smallest has four bedrooms and a solarium, five minutes on foot from the Medina. The largest has eight bedrooms, a private pool and a sauna, about a five-minute drive from the coast. If you came to Essaouira for a house with space to spread out, these three are the options — pick by size and how close you want to be to the old town.
On this page, prices start at 2027 Moroccan dirham a night — that's the four-bedroom Villa Allun Essaouira near the Medina. The eight-bedroom Chez Didier Et Bernadette, with its private pool and sauna, costs 8927 dirham a night. There are no mid-range options listed here, so budget for either end of that range.
The closest to the old town is Villa Allun Essaouira, a five-minute walk from the Medina. If you want to be right by a landmark, the house called Bab Marrakech Essaouira 11 is steps from Place Moulay Hassan and Bab Doukkala. For a quiet drive to the coast, Chez Didier Et Bernadette is about five minutes from Essaouira's beach.
Only one of the three is really built for walking to the coast — Chez Didier Et Bernadette is about a five-minute drive from the beach, so plan for a short ride. The other two are closer to the Medina and the central squares, where the beach is a longer walk. None of the three is directly on the seafront.
Essaouira's holiday homes are a different proposition from its riads and guesthouses. These are self-contained houses — not rooms off a courtyard — where the whole place is yours for the stay. They sit within an easy walk of the Medina's gates or a short drive from the coast, which matters in a city as compact as this one. With between four and eight bedrooms, they suit groups travelling together who want to share meals and evenings without tripping over each other.
The spread is real. One home is a five-minute stroll from the Medina walls, another sits right by Place Moulay Hassan and Bab Doukkala, and the third — the largest — is a ten-minute drive from the coast with a private pool and sauna. Prices follow the space: from 2027 Moroccan dirham a night for the four-bedroom to 8927 dirham a night for the eight-bedroom with the extras. If a holiday home is the point, this is the shortlist.
These holiday homes are for travellers who want a whole house in Essaouira — space for a group, a kitchen, and privacy away from hotel corridors. The four-bedroom near the Medina suits those who want the old town on foot; the eight-bedroom with a pool and sauna suits longer stays or bigger parties who don't mind driving to the beach. If you'd rather be right on the seafront, look at the beach hotels page; if you want a classic riad experience inside the walls, the riads page has that. For those who want a hotel's services instead of a self-catered house, the central hotels page is the counterpoint.
