Anyone for Tortoises…?
Each of the riads has a private garden extensively planted with indigenous and tropical plants, grassed lawns and berjmat tiled patios with sunloungers and mozaic ‘zellige’ dining tables.
In addition there is a large communal garden with room for a game of boules or volleyball or to find a space to curl up with a book. There are also various garden and beach games including cricket and rounders.
Bordering the garden and surrounding the hammam is a walled olive garden which acts as a sanctuary for Rebali’s resident tortoises. If you are lucky you will also see our tame chameleon…
On the other side of the hammam is a tennis court and there are rackets and balls to borrow if you don’t want to bring your own.
Use of the communal garden and tennis court is free for guests.
Sidi Kaouki has long been known as a watersports paradise with surfing dominating the winter months and kitesurfing and windsurfing in the windier summer months although all 3 sports can practised all year round.

The bustling old medina and port of Essaouira is one of Morocco's most attractive towns and is a Unesco World Heritage Site. A lot more laid back than Marrakech or Fes, the souks and markets will absorb you for hours.

Kasbah d'Eau is in the village of Sidi Kaouki, 10 miles (16km) south of Essaouira, one of the prettiest towns in Morocco, with its ramparts and medina full of traditional shops, great bars and wonderful restaurants. The beach is the main attraction with surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing for the adrenalin junkies, horseback and camel rides to explore the area, and quadbike tours to get into the dunes and down the coast. It is also a place beloved by runners and walkers - the immediate beach is 1.5 miles (2.5km) in length and then miles more beyond that - even at the busiest times finding calm and solitude is never an issue. Essaouira is a 25-minute taxi ride away (around £10/€12 each way) and it is easy to pop in for an afternoon shopping in the medina, or an evening in one of the wonderful restaurants. Essaouira's international airport is 15 minutes away, and Marrakech is 3 hours by taxi (or bus from Essaouira) for connections all over the world.
