Essaouira (formerly Mogador, Arabic: الصويرة aṣ-Ṣawirah,), is a port city and a municipality of Morocco, capital of the province of Essaouira, in the region of Marrakech-Safi. It is located at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean and has 77,966 inhabitants in 2014.

Although the region of Essaouira was inhabited since antiquity by the Berber natives, Phoenicians and Romans, it is only from the sixteenth century that the site is really occupied by the Portuguese, who build in 1506 a fortress and ramparts quickly abandoned before the fierce resistance of the local population.

The foundation of the city of Essaouira proper is the idea of ​​Sultan Mohammed ben Abdellah, who orders its construction from 1760. Several renowned architects participate, such as Theodore Cornut, who draws the plan of the city. Once built, it continues to grow and has a golden age and exceptional development, becoming the largest commercial port in the country, but also its diplomatic capital between the late eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth century. It is also becoming a multicultural and artistic city.

The situation of the city deteriorates considerably between the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century following the bombing it suffered in 1844 and with the installation of the French protectorate. It is losing its importance and is no longer the international port and diplomatic capital of the country. After independence, the departure of the Jewish community also causes a very significant economic loss to the city.

Pretty terrace apartment for 3 people offers its guests barbecue grills and laundry facilities. The front desk is open around the clock.

Smoking is allowed in designated areas at this Essaouira apartment.
