Guesthouset kohteessa Ars-en-Ré

Alison Ranska

After spending six nights at Les Clés d’Ars in May '22, we both thought this was one of the loveliest places we've ever stayed, anywhere. Christine and Arnaud have created a calm, tasteful oasis in Ars en Ré; genuinely, a tiny piece of paradise on Île de Ré. They are both experts in hospitality and it really shows. They made us feel so welcome in a warm, kind but discreet way. We really did feel as if we were staying with close family friends. The common areas of this exceptional location have been carefully designed in a really tasteful, timeless way. So you feel as if you are staying in an exclusive hotel, even though it's a three-room guest house. The centrepiece is a cool, private courtyard, surrounded by climbing plants, and birdsong that leaves you feeling as if you're enjoying breakfast in a forest glade. And Christine's sublime breakfasts' legendary status is richly deserved (warning: they're also extremely generous. The fresh juice, fresh fruit, granola, yoghurt, great coffee and basket of bread and pastries left us full all morning). Our room was excellent, finished to a very high spec with a fantastic overhead shower. We also both slept really soundly, despite being at the front of the building – mainly thanks to the very excellent, firm mattress. There was some street noise one night while we were there (to be expected near the port). But, overall, we found the area was almost silent from 22:00 onwards, even in May. Christine and Arnaud have earned their high rankings on Booking.com and Tripadvisor for good reason and we would recommend them to anyone who's planning to visit this fascinating island.

The place was cosy and clean, the room was spacious and had everything you need. I totally loved the big window facing the terrace and the dressing table.

The location was perfect, easy to walk into the little village for the markets. The breakfast in the morning was great and the girl working there was amazing. Super helpful, friendly and just made our stay really nice. Would definitely go back.

This is a wonderful adults only bed and breakfast. The accommodations were so comfortable: the bed, the quiet, the outdoor garden with lots of spots to nap and read. The swimming pool was divine after all day of biking the island. Bikes were available both electric and regular. La Couarde is a good midway point for daily biking on safe bike routes. Florence and Rémy were the BEST hosts: inviting, helpful with daily excursion suggestions that we followed. We felt so welcomed.
