$40-120 / öö
Broneeri, kui You want a wallet-friendly Tunisian beach resort with a killer infinity pool and don't mind trading some modern polish for authentic charm.
Miks inimesed seda armastävad
- Direct access to a pristine private beach with crystal clear water
- The stunning infinity pool that overlooks the Mediterranean
- Staff members like Omar and Chadha who treat guests like family
Kiire kokkuvõte: A beloved but aging grand dame that delivers 5-star views with 3-star maintenance and a side of ant spray.
Vaadanud @ibdallasdiary: I had such a great time here—the service was 10/10 and the views are insane for photos. I loved sipping cocktails on the beach, and the spa was a total highlight. Even though the buffet varies, the chef made me custom food. Definitely check it out.

FAQ ja peidetud nipid
Kõik, mida tegelikult tahad teada enne broneerimist.
Is the indoor pool free?
It's complicated. It's located in the Bio Azur Thalasso center; sometimes it's free, other times guests report being charged or finding it closed for maintenance.
Is there free Wi-Fi?
Yes, but it's spotty. It works best in the lobby and main building rooms; signal in the bungalows is weak to non-existent.
Are the bungalows better than the rooms?
Generally, no. While 'private,' they are often described as damper, older, and buggier than the main building rooms.
How far is the Medina?
It's about a 15-20 minute walk or a cheap 5-minute taxi ride (approx 5 TND).
Is the gym included?
No. The fitness center charges a daily fee (approx 15-20 TND).
Do they serve alcohol?
Yes, but the All-Inclusive plan covers only local Tunisian beer and spirits. International brands are extra.

5 asja, mida peaksid teadma enne reisimist
💡The 'heated' pool is often lukewarm at best.
💡You have to wake up at 6 AM to reserve a sunbed or you will be on the grass.
💡The stray cats are part of the ecosystem here—you will likely dine with them.
💡The 'juice' at breakfast is often sugary powdered concentrate, not fresh squeezed.
💡Archery and mini-golf are free but the equipment is ancient.
