El Hanchane Holiday Rentals

"spotless rooms and fantastic staff"

"Exceptional hospitality!"

"Close to the beach and the market"

"Genuinely exceptional stay. The staff are friendly, attentive, and quietly professional, always present without ever being intrusive. The owner is visible throughout the day and in the restaurant every evening, making sure guests are comfortable and everything runs perfectly. The entire place is spotless: immaculate uniforms, tidy bar, calm atmosphere, and a real sense of pride in the work. My room faced the main seafront road into Essaouira from Diabat, yet I didn’t hear a single trace of traffic noise, a remarkable level of peace and soundproofing. The location is a little out of the way, but that’s an advantage: it’s quieter, more relaxed, and only an 8 MAD taxi ride to the Medina. The pool area and restaurant are spotless, and the food is excellent. For the standard of service and comfort provided, you’d easily pay double or more in the UK. Outstanding value, beautifully run, and genuinely one of the best stays I’ve had anywhere. Highly recommended. "

"From the moment I checked in, the staff from the front desk to the café and restaurant were incredibly professional and welcoming. Their cheerful attitudes and outstanding customer service made our stay truly enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!"

"Really super hotel. Staff amazing esp Ahmed at Beach Bar, Imad at breakfast and our chambermaid Nazah. There is some refurbishment underway but no impact to our stay and it’s good to see the investment. The hotel is ideally located with its own beach area and bar which we used a lot. "

"Lovely staff. A good small breakfast for 1x night stay."

"This was an amazing stay Jamal and his wife go all out to give guests a great experience- nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast is huge with a big selection of different items. The pool was an added bonus. The lady who cooks (sorry I don’t recall her name) is friendly and helpful as well as a good cook! It’s a few miles/kilometres out of Essaouira so a car is probably preferable but if you want a fab place to stay that is peaceful, calm and clean then this is the place for you! I will certainly return there if I visit Essaouira again. I just enjoyed chilling out by the pool and popping into Essaouira late afternoon/early evening. If I had one tiny criticism it’s about the coffee- I drink loads every day and if they’d invest in a proper coffee machine that would be an 11/10! However the fantastic Tea Royal more than made up for the lack of coffee machine! Merci Beaucoup. A la prochaine! "

"A pearl in the Medina indeed. A wonderful room, facing the pounding Atlantic, with easy access to all of Essaouira. The breakfast was a great start to the day. My hamman and massage -- like my wife's pedicure and facial -- were refreshing, relaxing and effective. Add the amazing staff, and we'd come here anytime Essaouira calls."
