The Residence Tunis

This Arab Andalusian style palace comprises 155 rooms and 9 suites, on four floors, mostly facing the sea with private balcony offering panoramic views. Scattered throughout are beautiful fountains, shades of ivory and ochre, old wrought iron gates, elegant furniture, paintings and sculptures by talented local artists. Offering a haven from the summer heat is the beautiful cascading swimming pool and private Mediterranean beach.

Making it a perfect all year round destination is the specialist Thalasso–spa. Named Les Thermes Marins de Carthage, it is inspired by the health principles of the ancient Roman thermal bath. It offers 30 treatment rooms, six Darphin spa cabins, an oriental hammam, two patios for relaxation and a majestic cupola sheltering an enchanting sea–water swimming pool with wide bay windows which look out onto the luscious tropical gardens.

Giving even more allure to the hotel is the recently added 18–hole golf course, designed by the award winning course designer Robert Trent Jones II. It is situated close to the hotel grounds and boasts an idyllic setting surrounded by several lakes with a luxurious Club House.
