A high quality riad-style hotel located on the northwest corner of the Medina. This property will appeal to those of you wanting a very traditional style combined with Marrakech levels of service and quality; this is the only Riad directly in front of the ocean!
The Riad Mimouna is near the "Squalla" quarter of the medina and is built into the remains of the first big mill of Essaouira. A dream from another century .... It was 1896 when Ferdinand SANDILLON built this wind-mill. Now, in an ambiance of the Berbere culture, beautiful carpets throughout the hotel rooms, splendid views of the sea and the medina, ceilings of fragrent thuya woods, beautiful salons, sunny terrace over the Atlantic, everything has been re-designed for your comfort.

Customer comments:
" I was very pleased with our accommodation and I would like to thank you for your choices, especially Riad Mimouna in Essaouira, sadly we could not have stayed a little while longer. The trip was a success. Everything about Morocco was great, the food, the people, the terrain was breath-taking, along with the country's history and culture, and the weather were all great. I would almost certainly use your services again, thanking you kindly. " - P. McClymont (May, 2011)
"Essaouira was delightful and the Riad Mimouna is lovely."
