Ida Ou Aazza Holiday Rentals

"Is good hotel and staff in reception thanks Ines "

"Very elegantly decorated and very well upkept throughout."

"One of the most serene and beautiful place I have ever visited. "

"We had high expectations from the lovely photos and great reviews, but when we walked in we were still blown away by how amazing the place is. It felt like our own little oasis. Completely private not overlooked at all, with immaculate gardens and generous accommodation. We felt thoroughly spoilt the whole week. We spent our days laying in the sun, hopping in and out the pool. Eating breakfast on the roof terrace and enjoying a game of boules before dinner. Essaouira Medina is a must visit, we enjoyed wandering the lanes with their bustling shops and cafes, and watching the sun set over the sea from the battlement walls. The beaches are also perfect for long walks. In February when we visited the sea was warm, sun was hot, and the beaches very quiet. We will definitely be back."

"Beautiful boutique hotel with lovely rooms. Five-minute walk to the beach. Wonderful staff & service. I had a relaxing stay - merci beaucoup!"

"Excellent pool, all the staff were great - friendly, professional & fun. Superb gardens & accommodation & delicious food. Perfect for a few days relaxation."

"Absolutely stunning place, beautifully managed by Said. All the rooms were beautiful and the pool absolutely amazing - the kids had a wonderful time. We got massages at the house and used the hammam, plus were cooked for by Said's wonderful wife, whose name I'm so sorry but have forgotten. Warm, friendly and unforgettable."

"Dar Do is a lovely place to stay. We visited as a family of three adults and three children (8,10,13) staying for 14 days and there was plenty of room for us all. All the rooms are clean and spacious, the kitchen is well equipped and the sitting room has a large TV with USB ports for your own downloaded films. The garden is lovely, complete with tortoises - we counted nine but they were well hidden at times! We all loved the superb pool and the shady sun beds. Communication with the hosts via email was very quick and easy. Communication with Said was tricky, due to our terrible French, but he BBQ'd for us and we managed to order and eat his wife's delicious tagines (chicken as well as vegetarian option). It would be useful to have a car, as recommended, as there is not much in the immediate area, but found we could easily order an inexpensive large taxi via Said to ferry us to the Carrefour supermarket, the town and the beaches. (Driver Abdul was helpful and spoke a little English). As it was peak-season August, the beaches and Medina were very crowded with Moroccan families. Having been to the Beldi Country Club in Marrakech a number of times, we had lunch in Villa Beldi, which was just down the road and a welcome oasis from the heat of the Medina .. and it was certainly hot, 42 degrees at one point, dropping little at night - even the wind was hot. All in all, a fabulous holiday and we hope to return one day."

"Calm views away from Essaouira"
