Le Médina Essaouira Thalassa Sea & Spa - MGallery Collection
Got one of the ocean view room and the view is gorgeous. Great location, short walk to the medina for shopping and photos. The room was spacious and clean. Although not an brand new condition, the upkeep is good. If we come back, we'd stay here again.
