I loved the place for its amazing sea view. My apartment was on the 4th floor, with a large terrace overlooking the sea. It was worth going up the narrow staircase which could be better lighted at night. The staff was welcoming. The breakfast was simple but of good quality. The apartment was spacious and the bed very confortable.
I don't recommend the first floor apartment which is a duplex but is quite dark and above the cafe. They don't clean the apartment on a daily basis. Excellent value for the rate and perfectly located.

An amazing sea view

Just an amazing view. Worth every penny and every step.
We stayed, over new year, in the third floor apartment. The firth floor one us smaller but has a balcony. The third floor one is bigger, has two big windows which open and almost makes a balcony.
There us a small kitchen area and a movable gas heater.
The views are amazing, just like the pictures.
It is 66 steps up to the third floor, and you can smell smoke (from the bar) on the stairs, but not in the apartments.
Good breakfast, lovely owners and, for what you get, really quite cheap.
I've been to over 100 countries, this is one of the best views I've ever had.
Stay here, you will not regret it.

Amazing

We stayed in the top suite and walking up those stairs several times a day carrying a toddler was still worth it - the view is amazing! The tide is very dramatic and offers a variety of scenes that play out 5 stories below you: fishermen diving and dragging bags and bags of stuff out of the sea, waves crashing or lapping at the rocks below, couples exploring the exposed rocks at low tide and many seagulls flying at the same level as your windows. The owners are very friendly and accommodating, the breakfast was great and even included omelettes and strong cappuccinos, the accommodations were very spacious (except for the bathroom but that is minor) and we loved having a little burner stove to boil water for tea, eggs or a quick soup when a few of us were not feeling well.
We parked our rental car behind the bigger parking lot, a smaller privately owned venture. It was 100 MAD for 2 days and gave us in and out privileges. The gentleman that assisted with carting our bags from there to the hotel wasn't such a good deal but he took as around the block to make the way seem longer (not accommodation affiliated but may be helpful all the same).

Unparalleled view and welcoming hospitality

Dar Ayour is located inside the medina of Essaouira, allowing easy access to the beach and the markets.  Hotel room was beautiful, with lots of details and color.  Large windows open to give an amazing view of the ocean directly below.  There was a slight smell from one of the bathroom drains but this was easily fixed by covered the drain.

Beautiful view, Centrally Located

Stayed in this apartment as a family of 4 for 3 nights on the last floor. 5 stars for a spectacular view and beautifully decorated rooms. Apartment has everything you need for self catering. A bit difficult to get up the stairs but we did not mind the workout. As soon as you open the door you are wowed by the view and the breeze from the ocean. The building is very old as expected for Médina and therefore the “old” smell which we got used to. Overall a pleasant stay, despite the lack of stars from other reviewers.

Breathtaking views

We stayed nearly a week in the top room with the balcony, (the photos do not do this justice), it was absolutely amazing sitting there each evening and/or afternoon, watching the birds, ocean, and sun go down. It is true that there are many stairs to climb but not impossible,(unless you have mobility issues, (we are 60 and did it easily). They help you with the luggage both up and down. Previous people have said you can smell smoke from downstairs, we smelt non and think it would only be possibly on the floor directly above the cafe. Also, we saw all the rooms and the room that is mentioned in a previous review saying it has no windows, does in fact but there is no view - they face the city wall, this is the room directly above the cafe. This was one of the best accommodation I have stayed at and I have travelled the world, the only down side was that there was a smell from the drains in the bathrooms.

Amazing hidden Gem

We stayed at Dar Ayour in Essaouira for 5 days. The studio was clean, with enough space. Our room was on 2nd floor so we enjoyed the most beautiful view in the city. Breakfast was very good and really big enough. The hosts speak a little English and they were polite and trying to be helpful.

Wonderful ocean view

This hotel is in a great location at the foot of the ramparts and just around the corner from cafes and restaurants.
The owners were very personable and willing to please.
The breakfast was good and plentiful; bread and butter, jam and honey, croissants and crepes and sometimes omelette. Tea or coffee and orange juice. Good value.
Our apartment was on two floors and in good condition but we were disappointed because it was dark and did not have any outside space. On booking we were led to believe that we would have a sea view and/or a balcony. We would not have chosen this apartment if we had known that there wasn't a view or balcony but others may not mind.
The apartment and bed etc were clean. 
There was enough room in this apartment for two or three children to sleep on sofas upstairs from the main bedroom.
All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Essaouira and thank the owners for their kind hospitality.
