Riad de l'Audeline

Riad de l'Audeline occupies a traditional riad on Rue Mohamed El Qorry inside Essaouira's medina, the 18th-century walled port city on Morocco's Atlantic coast. The adults-only bed and breakfast operates two outdoor pools alongside a full spa menu — body scrubs, hammam treatments, couples' massages and facial therapies — which is uncommon at this price tier within the medina walls.

Rooms feature hardwood floors, bathrobes, slippers and private bathrooms. The property runs cooking classes, local culture tours, bike rentals and horseback riding excursions, making it a practical base for exploring the Gnaoua music quarter and the ramparts overlooking the Atlantic. Airport transfers are available in both directions.
