Residence Sultana, Zarzis

A charming quiet boutique hotel, Residence Sultana is set amongst beautiful gardens and offers fantastic views over the Mediterranean and direct beach access. The property is built in typical Tunisian architectural style, with brilliantly whitewashed cubes and domes complemented by blue doors and windows, being dramatically juxtaposed to stunning effect against the dark blue sea, palm-shaded patios, and abundant bougainvillea, jasmine, and mimosa plants. The atmosphere at Residence Sultana is very relaxed, informal and homely. In the lounge one may browse through a selection of coffee table books, or sit back on one of the large sofas and have a mint tea, while the attractive swimming pool with its sun loungers and shady umbrellas is an ideal place to spend a lazy afternoon, and the hammam offers the prospect of oriental pampering and an authentic North African experience. The 5 double rooms with terrace, 3 duplex apartments, and 5 suites with terrace, which comprise the accommodation at Residence Sultana, all have their own charm and individual style and are equipped with en suite bathrooms, air-conditioning, satellite television, safe, minibar, and Wifi. Four of the rooms have ocean views, the others looking out onto the pool or gardens. The hotel’s restaurant has a terrace shaded by acacia and tamarisk and offers a local menu made from seasonal produce. Zarzis is only 45 minutes drive from Djerba but is a world away in terms of development and visitor numbers.
