If you've never had a Moroccan hammam, sort your life out and go get one. On the way back from a day on the beach and before you get to your Riad, stop by 'ere for a steamy body-scrub. Half the price of a massage, and no slippery oils to wash off, you'll be instantly ready for the Medina nightlife.
Horrible and great experience. Explained.
I was super excited to get a massage. Was craving it for 24 hours. I took a one hour massage with a girl (girl 1) and I enjoyed it. Thanks to reading a previous post - request not to do the hair. I enjoyed so much so that after she left the room I walked outside and asked the manager for another 30 min. It wasn’t the best massage, but it was suave and enjoyable. 5 stars.
This is where part 2 comes in. I went to the bathroom and when I came back down a new girl (girl 2) followed me. Girl 1 I figure had another customer.
Girl 2 was an utter disaster. I had specified that I wanted 20 min for my back and 10 min for my legs. I didn’t want anything else. She worked about 20 min on my legs. She tried going to my feet and I said no. She did about 6 min on my back. And 4 min on my hair and my arms (none of which I wanted). The part that made it so bad was that she was not suave at all. She was extremely fast - like 100 mph and very aggressive. It was horrible. Basically erased all the work we had done just a few min before. 1 star review for girl 2. If I had started with girl 2 I would’ve hated life.
Next bad part. I went to pay and they don’t accept credit card. They never told me before and I didn’t have enough cash for 90 min. And so I had to underpay them - that’s their loss, but at the same time it was such a disaster I wish I didn’t have to pay at all for that. It killed my day.
Most relaxed atmosphere. The one hour massage took me to a dreamless sleep. So peaceful. The staff surely provided a soft hands delivery upon my body. Price is very reasonable.
Walking, shopping, eating around the various stores inside Bob Market .you will get lost in your imagination of colours , souvenirs, a private world of sights and products..you wish you could take them all back home.
Massage was fine, very nice staff. If there’s something specific you want to ask for, and you’re an English speaker, you must state your requests at the front desk because the therapists do not understand English.
I am so impressed by this spa!
Extremely professional and beautifully authentic. The place is spotlessly clean and relaxing, the products used are of excellent quality, and I couldn’t speak more highly of the staff. My mom is a massage therapist in Miami Beach and I am quite critical when it comes to spa services. The massage and facial I received were absolutely perfect. I also had a traditional hammam which I had never done before and I hope to do as often as I can moving forward. More than anything, thank you to the staff for being so wonderful and giving me so many biscuits and tea! I will recommend this place to everyone who visits Essaouira city. Thank you Youssera!
