Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also welcomes guests with a restaurant and an outdoor fireplace. The guest house features mountain views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available.

Very clean toilets and showers, I enjoyed my shower in the wide, warm, and well-equipped bathroom in this Riad. The room was well organized and clean that I felt like home although it has been a long time before staying in an hotel. Mr. Yessir and the team were very friendly, they provided all the needed things as well as the information about the city, food, and the facility itself. The rooftop is a nice place for a calm evening coffee. Don't miss that. The breakfast was cooked with care, healthy, and most of its contents were organic. The location is easy to find, calm at night, and lively in the afternoon.

A absolutely amazing experience. What a beautiful hotel! What lovely people! We met the fantastic owner Helen, her warm and kind manager Mina, Albie, Hamza in the restaurant. It's like a big family and we felt sad leaving! The design is STUNNING. Every room is special and the beds are incredibly comfy for a good nights' sleep. The team are wonderful in helping you organise transfers, surf lessons, restaurant recommendations. On my birthday they gave me flowers and the entire restaurant sang to me which made me feel so special! They also have a live band playing upstairs and people from all over come to eat in the restaurant so it really is the place to be at night as well.

    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.
