This is NOT a thalasso hotel.

TripAdvisor rating 3.0/5

Good location and friendly staff but beware this hotel no longer has thalassotherapy facilities only limited spa treatments. The hotel is also undergoing extensive construction and remodeling until September 2026 causing dust and noise and meaning a large part of the indoor facilities are not available to guests and more than 50% of bedrooms are still to be refurbished The main entrance looks as though the whole hotel is closed.

The hotel location and pool is beautiful. They were undergoing renovations and we were placed in one of the older rooms. I wish I was told or even knew that some rooms were renovated . . It was clean but a little stuffy and outdated . The heated pool was not working. There was only the bar to hang around at . It was a good stay overall but I feel I paid more for a 5 star hotel than what it was at with renovations ongoing .

Ajmatu TripAdvisor review

Stayed here for a night. Hotel caters more for Euro/American tourists on a package tour. The hotel is like any standard quality hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean. Decor was humdrum The location on the sea front was excellent. The hotel has exclusive space and a a restaurant on the beach which was pretty good. The food served on the beach was pretty good.

The only drawback this time was that the beautiful hotel lobby was under renovation. This detracted from the charm. Massage and Haman services were not available even though I would not have had the time to take advantages. Shops were also closed.

Chère Mme C., Merci beaucoup pour votre retour. Nous sommes ravis que le cadre et les prestations vous aient plu, et nous vous prions de nous excuser pour les services momentanément indisponibles durant les rénovations. Nous espérons avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau dans des conditions pleinement optimum. Bien à vous Loubna Boubrik Room Division Manager

Great stay with even better potential!

We stayed here for 4 nights at the end of an amazing Morocco adventure. This place has such potential and it 60% there. Once all the renovations have been completed it will be the place to stay. The external view of the resort is pretty shabby and very dated. The old rooms which are all in the front building do all need work but they are onto it and it won't be long until they are all done. We had booked a sea view room not knowing that those are all the unrenovated ones. We asked before we got there to have a room that was renovated and away from the noise of the construction. In reality we got an old room next door to the building work aaaargh! At check in, they advised that a new room would become available the next day if we wished to change. We decided we wanted to - the old rooms are not hideous but they do really need some work - dated bathrooms, grout is old and stained, fixtures are pretty poor. The bed however was still very clean and comfortable. The small balcony facing the ocean has peeling paint etc and the external walls are very grotty. The amazing Nezha at front desk helped us out and relocated us to a new room the next morning (Thankyou Nezha!!) These rooms are gorgeous!. Bathroom is beautiful, balcony large and comfortable. Couldn't fault them. Only feedback that was negative about the back building was occasionally there was a really bad smell in the hallway (sewerage??) which may or may not have been the hotel. This did not affect our stay though. The pool area is beautifully remodelled, the bar has been beautifully remodelled. At the time, they were working on reception and the side building rooms and apart from that first night the work did not affect our stay. The restaurant in the hotel is yet to be renovated and does need work, but I'm sure its on the agenda to get done soon. Breakfast was good, with Moroccan and Western options. The staff across the hotel was all lovely. The staff at breakfast was great but tended not to be on top of clearing dirty tables or re-setting for the next guest but it wasn't the end of the world. We also accessed the beach side restaurant and the food was fantastic! The staff here were also lovely but service was very slow. The location is the best in Essaouira in our opinion. All in all a great stay and can't wait to see how the renovations end up. Once finished this place will be a 5/5!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your stay at Hôtel Le Médina Essaouira Thalassa Sea & Spa. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your experience overall and truly appreciate your kind words about our team—especially Nezha, who will be thrilled to read your praise 🌟. We’ve also taken note of your helpful feedback regarding the unrenovated rooms, the restaurant, and a few maintenance details. As you mentioned, extensive renovations are currently underway to offer our guests a fully refreshed and modern experience while preserving the warm, authentic spirit of Le Médina. We’re glad that you enjoyed the newly renovated rooms, the pool, and the bar, as well as our unbeatable location and the kindness of our staff. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon so you can discover Le Médina Essaouira in all its renewed splendor once the renovations are complete. Warm regards, La Direction,
