Hilton Skanes Monastir Beach Resort
The room was one of the nicest ones we had in a Hilton hotel of that category. Very spacious, clean and the bed was very comfortable. Even if our stay was during winter, we had a very pleasant stay. The staff is very nice and the food at the restaurants was quite good. Pizza at La Luce was pretty ...

Iberostar Selection Kuriat Palace
Everything there was just extraordinary. The staff was very welcoming and they all did their jobs with smiles on their faces that was what stood out for me. The rooms and everywhere was always clean and the food was great as well. It’s a place to visit again.

Iberostar Selection Diar El Andalous
Great, courteous staff. Overlooking a private beach. 2 good sized outdoor pool (didnt use as too cold in Nov) Food was great with all-inclusive. Great of them to upgrade from half-board. Rooms felt very basic for a 5 star. The shampoo and body wash was empty.

Iberostar Selection Kantaoui Bay
Service, food etc was fine. Security, as the 2025 terrorist attack happened AT THIS HOTEL, was almost non-existent. Any areas outside the grounds were a garbage-strewn wasteland, like the rest of Tunisia that we saw. Avoid Tunisia is my advice.
