Imagine a cross between Barbarella’s boudoir and a swinging 60's love pad and you’ve got a picture of Dar Beida - one of the funkiest spaces in Morocco. This magical 4-bedroom house is like a curvy white spaceship with a mix of mod plastic furniture and animal skins and skulls… a pre-historic pop-art cave. An incredibly clean and bright cave, mind you!

Sleeps 8-10

DAR BEIDA (The White House), is a very cool 4-bedroom villa situated at the back of Essaouira's fortified medina near Bab Doukala with the food quarter pretty much on your door step, just 10-minutes walk to Essaouira's long sandy beach.

An organic modern living space has been moulded around ancient sandstone columns and thuya wood ceilings and then a mix of eclectic colourful lighting and furnishings has been added, mainly from the 1960's era. The house is built around a central courtyard and comprises 4 storeys:

Ground level: There is a library connecting to a chill out room with fire place. Out in the courtyard is a fountain and rest area. 

1st floor: There is an open plan fully equipped kitchen/diner at one end, a living space with stereo in the middle and two fire places and a moulded bedroom and shower room towards the back.

2nd floor: Features two double bedrooms with pod fire places in each. In between the bedrooms is a curved bathroom with skylight. You can walk straight out onto a large terrace which has a very rustic sun shade area with seating, next to this are a couple of sun beds and a hammock. 

3rd floor: Go up to the top floor, to a double bedroom with glass fronted doors folding out onto a private terrace with a sink moulded into the wall. There is a seating area up there too.
