Where does one start. I am clearly not the only person who believes that a stay at Rebali Riads is an experience not to be missed. Out of 194 Trip Advisor reviews, 176 people have awarded the highest score of 5 and probably would have awarded higher if that were possible. 17 reviews gave it a score of 4. Clearly the high rankings speak volumes. For me, it is my perfect paradise that I can’t imagine that I will ever stop visiting. Rebali Riads offer the whole package and excel in every area. Each Riad has a unique appeal and every riad has been tastefully decorated and is spotlessly clean. The team who work at Rebali all deserve the credit that is bestowed upon them. The manager, Mohammed, who leads the team personifies the phrase ‘goes the extra mile’. I really believe that he would blow away the clouds so that you can enjoy the sun. Fatima, the assistant manager is graceful in her manner and has a permanent smile that simply brightens your day. The food is exquisite, freshly prepared and served professionally. A real highlight. The grounds are kept in immaculate condition, no mean feat! Help and advice are always at hand without being intrusive or pushy. Well done Rebali Riads for offering such a wonderful holiday destination and allowing so many people to enjoy the experience with you. For those reading this, you need to experience the wonders of Rebali Riads first hand and you too will understand my words of praise and gratitude.

Sidi Kaouki was a perfect spot to start our vacation. Relaxing but with enough to keep everyone busy. The meals were amazing and being able to walk to the ocean but not swim in the ocean filled our days as well as the great shopping in Essaouira.

It was the best family holiday, we truly loved it. Muhammed and Fatima were brilliant, as were all the staff. We loved Rebali Riads, it was such a great luxurious oasis after surfing, and we had a very happy time there. We felt safe, well looked after, and the whole process from booking to coming home was great.

Dar Mevada was absolutely perfect for the 5 of us, it felt very spacious and luxurious. We loved the privacy of the pool and eating outside every evening. I couldn’t fault it, it was immaculately cleaned every day and it suited us really well.

The mouette restaurant was fantastic, but I wouldn’t bother eating out at Le Kaouki or the surf club, the riad food was the best. But I guess people have to work that out for themselves.

We have been raving about Rebali riads since we came back! We were very well looked after by all of the staff so please pass that onto them, and we hope to visit again.

We had an absolutely lovely time – not easy with the needs of 3 generations! Both Riad Sila and Valmar were beautifully decorated with lots of useful details. The grounds and pool areas were great and the meals we had prepared for us were excellent. However, a particular mention has to go to the superb staff especially Mohammed and Fatimah for whom nothing was too much trouble. It really is a ‘home from home’ – Fleewinter has created just the right balance of the privacy and the amenities of a hotel. We all loved our trip.

Rebali Riads is perfect for us. The location is fantastic. Mohamed and Fatima (the whole staff) are super friendly and do perfect job.

Flying into Essouira was so easy, and we were in Sidi Kaouki in 15 mins with Rebali Riad as our base and wow…. what a gem! with a heated pool, tennis court, table tennis, resident turtles and a team of friendly hosts, led by the delightful Fatima and Mohammed. We explored Essouira, souks, ramparts, the harbour, beach walks and enjoyed lots of delicious food, including Rebali home baked cakes, pastries and the breakfasts/evening meals were excellent. Self catering was an option too. Sidi Kaouki was a brilliant base. Big skies, spring sunshine, huge waves, miles upon miles of golden sand beaches plus ever changing dunes. A real highlight was horse riding with Equievasion through argon forest, salt marsh, dunes and beach. I booked this in the UK after rave reviews by Tourdust and Mohammed at Rebali, via email. It was the most fantastic riding experience. Jawad was the perfect host; rightly very proud of his 18 Arab stallions, all of whom were treated with upmost care and respect. Well managed horse yard with space, good feed and care for his horses. We galloped for miles along the deserted beach. We are keen riders at home & this ride was brilliant.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rebali Riads & Equievasion. It was a perfect holiday.

We loved our accommodation and thank Rebali Riad for the riad upgrade! The use of a heated pool in winter was a big bonus. We played tennis and ping-pong and went for a very long walk on the beach. We bought food in Essaouira and cooked in the riad. Also, thank you so much for all the attentions on the day of my birthday, February 9th. The cake was the best I ever had! It made it a very special day I will remember for a very long time. Loved it so much we want to return next winter for a week long family reunion!

Superb. The accommodation at Rebali is magnificent in its low-key luxury. Breakfasts and dinners are excellent. But above all, the service is absolutely outstanding in its friendliness and solicitousness. This goes from top to bottom – from Mohammed in his managerial role where nothing is either too small or too big, through Fatima and her warm manner and her detailed care of housekeeping, via Selima whose cheery looking after us was much appreciated, through to Hassan in the gardens and Habib with his smiley lighting of our fire. And the same goes for all the others!

We were all impressed with the excellent service we received at Rebali.The riad was extremely comfortable. The food was divine. The staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful. We would have no hesitation in recommending to any of our friends (and we already have).

Please pass on our thanks to all the staff for making our holiday so fabulous, in particular, the Manager and assistant Manager. They are both an asset to Rebali.

The information provided at Reballi was very comprehensive and all of it was more than helpful and the recommendations were top notch.

Villa was lovely, we loved the social mint tea and cake to share ideas with other guests. The food quality was outstanding at a great price and my children loved trying all the new foods. Mohammed and Fatima were very welcoming and keen to talk and give you tips and advise about their country. Loved that you could just chill on the roof terrace reading but there is enough activities available if you wanted them. It really was a great Christmas for us as a family and as I say we are already talking about going back, it’s a gem of a place.

Rebali is located in the village of Sidi Kaouki 10 miles south of Essaouira and 100 miles west of Marrakech and 70 miles north of Agadir. The easiest way to get there is to fly direct to Essaouira and then you are just 15 minutes from paradise! There are direct flights from London Stansted, Paris and Casablanca. You can also fly to Marrakech and we will arrange a driver to pick you up - it is around 2.5 - 3 hours. Agadir is the same distance but a longer journey. You can also come by bus to Essaouira and then a 25 minute taxi journey (£7).
