Our second stay at Libert'Art, after three years, felt like returning to cherished friends and family.

Their enthralling life stories and captivating conversations have become an integral part of our experience, leaving us enriched after each encounter. The ambiance of Libert'Art is nothing short of exquisite. Everywhere, the exquisite touch of the artist's soul is palpable. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The garden, with friendly animals and relaxing installations, offers a serene countryside experience. The breakfast is a delightful surprise every morning. Thank you, Yves and Caro, for everything. You have created a beautiful sanctuary in which we can't wait to come back.

I loved the breakfast. They sat a table in the beautiful French kitchen with placemats and lit new candle every morning. There was soft French music playing while we watched the girls prepare our breakfast. It was delightful!

Very welcoming. Clean. Nice breakfast. The riad and room are so pretty and inside the medina. Yusuf was so kind. Unfortunately we only could stay for 1 night.. wish we were here for 1 week instead of in Agadir.

    Great location right in the middle of the Medina but very quiet (I was there during Ramadan so it was perhaps quieter than usual). Spacious room, nice and clean. Traditional style of building, very charming. Lots of German and French retirees :)

    Super quiet and cozy place, located 30 minutes walk from city center. Host is super friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this place for someone who is looking to work, they have everything you need: nice coworking room and fast, by local standards, wi-fi. I would say that it is not the place if you are looking for endless parties at rooftops during moroccan nights, but it is great in sense Kamal(host) developing it: for people how want combine work / leisure.

    We really liked the accommodation, great location just a few steps from busy shops and restaurants, yet a very quiet place. Close to the sea and the port. Simo is a fantastic host, he was waiting for us by the bus and escorted us to the riad. He was very helpful all the time, he advised us good local restaurants and helped with printing the boarding pass.

    We were at Chems Bleu for only one night but wish to be more. Great location, welcoming host, delicious breakfast and good comfortable bed. The best guesthouse we were at during our 10-days journey in Morocco.

    Thus beautifully done out guest house has the most incredible chilled out vibe. The terrace overlooks the surf so you can keep an eye out for the swell and is perfect for a spot of yoga or just chilling watching the sunrise and sunset. It is set in a quiet, rural village and although I would recommend having a car, there were lovely walks to explore the dunes, beaches and landscapes. Food is delicious and hosts friendly, welcoming and helpful. Would highly recommend.
