A wonderful Moroccan Riad on the foot of the Medina facing the Atlantic Ocean. Wonderful location with lovely Moroccan decor. The rooms are basic and small, but the property is lovely and the hotel manager, Ronone (spelling??), will make your stay incredible.

Fantastic ocean view and great hospitality
We sadly stayed here only for 1 night. Wish we could spend more time in the lovely town of Essaouira and in Riad Kafila. The team of the riad made us feel extremely welcome and right at home. They were super nice and helpful. Our room (no 3) overlooking the Atlantic Ocean had one of the best views ever. It was amazing to wake up and watch the huge ocean waves crashing on the rocks. Breakfast was plentiful, tasty and very generous, we didn't need lunch that day! Location is also good, very close to the city walls, great for sunset. Some lovely restaurants in close vicinity and of course shopping.

A Little Gem
A wonderful Riad, super helpful and friendly staff who spoke very good English. Room was lovely, clean, fresh, roses on the side table, free bottles of water. The public spaces were beautifully decorated, a mix of quirky modern and traditional, just lovely. Breakfast was tasty and fresh. Great positon in the old Medina with the waves crashing on the shore outside the open window, but totally quiet with the window shut. Can't recommend this place highly enough

Top notch service
I stayed in this hotel because of the glowing reviews of costumer service, and I’m happy to report that this is indeed the case. Examples: my iPhone charger cord broke during the trip and the man behind the desk gave me his. The credit card machine wasn’t working so the man behind the desk escorted me to my nearest atm branch and then the train station. The area is also good as you close to a cool fortress.

This is a lovely riad, well-kept, clean, good location. The lounge upstairs is very cosy with outstanding ocean views. Very relaxing, calm atmosphere. Best of all is the warm, friendly, kind staff. They were truly hospitable as we were there during the stressful coronavirus time. They cooked dinner for us at no cost and generously offered us their kitchen and food and anything else we needed as Essaouira shut down. We will never forget this kindness. Highly recommend this property.

Amazing Views in Great Location
Lovely Riad in an absolutely amazing location. Close to the ramparts of the city and easy walking distance to everywhere in the medina. Cannot beat the views of the ocean from the breakfast room! Wish it had been warmer when we were there, because the rooftop terrace looked amazing! Staff were all wonderful and very helpful with arranging transportation for us. Breakfast was delicious too. Room was comfortable and clean, even if minimal frills. Be advised: cars are not allowed where the Riad is located, so you either need to carry your suitcases a decent distance or hire someone with a cart. Having the staff arrange for someone to meet us at the riad with a cart and having a cab waiting outside the medina for us was incredibly helpful.

We really enjoyed staying at Riad Kalifa, mostly because we were always welcome with a big smile, Musin was amazing, super kind and always pointing us in the right direction with food, what to visit.... the Riad is beautiful, very cosy, and holy. We slept like babies in those bed. I read some reviews about the humidity since is close to the beach. I am sensitive to humidity and I didn’t feel that at all. Breakfast was amazing! Definitely staying at Riad Kalifa made a difference in how we experienced Essaouira. Defiantly I recommend staying there

This is a cute hotel tucked away on the far side of the medina, nestled against the windswept ocean walls. The highlight is surely the wonderful breakfast set against the backdrop of an incredible ocean view. The staff here were friendly and efficient. My room on the ground floor was basic but clean. The only window was out into the attractive courtyard. Good wifi and a terrace with dramatic ocean views. There's also a fantastic restaurant just around the corner.
