Wahed: perfect for families or couples

Light and airy Wahed (‘one’ in Moroccan Arabic) is a three-storey townhouse-style apartment.

From its imposing French windows, you can watch daily life unfold – children playing on the street; women drawing water from the public fountain; craftsmen heading back and forth to their tiny workshops; horses coming home to their stables at night.

Details

Wahed has two bedrooms, two shower rooms, a living room, simply equipped kitchen/dining area and a split-level roof terrace with open views across the medina and to the sea. One bedroom, a double, gives onto the terrace; the lower one can be made up as a double or twin, and has a small extra bed suitable for children. The middle floor has Wi-Fi and i-pod speakers.

Prices & booking

From £45 to £60 per night for a couple, depending on season and length of stay. Additional adults £10 to £20 per night each. Children aged 5-16 £5 per night; under-5s stay free. Prices include household essentials, daily breakfast delivery and cleaning. Taxi transfers extra. Make an enquiry.

From the moment we stepped off the bus and took the short walk through the great walls into the alley way, we were taken back in time. The pace of life is slow, and the people are warm and friendly. Dar 91 is in the perfect location, close to everything, yet tucked away enough so you’re able to appreciate the sounds and silences of the Essaouira way of life.
