Xavier Panades Benoliel Profile Photo

Born in Tangier in 1961 from Spanish father and Sepharad Moroccan mother. In 1963 all my family left Morocco to Barcelona. I lived in Barcelona until 1984 and then I move to Principality of Andorra until 2006.
We bought Riad Zahra in Essaouira and move with my wife and my son because Essaouira is a very special city in Morocco.
This city have an special atmosphere, nice people, plenty of history and a beautiful medina and a picturesque port.
We manage some rental apartments and this family run hotel since 2006 and we are very happy to live here.
