Do you perceive that intoxicating scent of orange blossom that invades you as soon as you enter through the majestic door? Like a bubble of happiness, it will envelop you throughout your stay. At the Hotel The Residence Tunis, you will taste it in every corner, from the lobby to the restaurant and even in your room. Together with the hot Tunisian sun, the hospitality of this high-end palace and the kindness of its staff, it constitutes the triptych that gives the place its serenity.

The Residence Tunis is one of the most beautiful palaces on the continent, a member of the Leading Hotel of the World group, very attentive to the quality of its establishments. On a preserved site, it offers a holiday resort that is part of the refinement of Arab-Andalusian architecture. The know-how of Tunisians in terms of hospitality is no longer to be demonstrated and it joins here with that of the new Asian owners for whom luxury is a way of life. You can also taste this influence of the Levant in the Chinese restaurant Li Bai while the gastronomic Dar will provide you with typical Tunisian cuisine. Open for the most part on the sea, its 155 rooms and 9 suites decorated in a style marrying the authentic with the modern, are intended to be spacious and comfortable. Also fully-fledged maker of the hotel's reputation: Les Thermes de Carthage. The sublime Thalasso-Spa offers 4000m2 dedicated to care and well-being, in the privacy of 30 treatment rooms or in the seawater swimming pool. It offers treatments based on plants and essential oils.

A course also clearly apart

Located a few minutes by shuttle from the hotel, the course is characterized by a rare environment. A playground built along a superb lagoon with which, on certain holes, it merges, creating a breathtaking setting. True ecological refuge at the gates of the city, it shelters a luxuriant flora as much as a rich fauna which flourishes here in all serenity.

Proximity to the sea plays a constant role throughout the course: the wind blows readily between the Andi carob trees that many rivers meander along the fairways creating very voracious traps. Robert Trent Jones skillfully took advantage of this context to offer a high-flying test whose defense arsenal is also largely tinged with his signature, in particular by its huge and numerous bunkers along the route. As usual, the American architect feasted on the natural optical illusions offered by the original land. The layout as well as a large departure option guarantee a very technically relevant course as long as it is played in this state of mind and therefore quite appreciable for the less demanding among us.

Neat setting, magical spa, renowned gastronomy and atypical golf make The Residence Tunis an essential address for nomadic golfers looking for a new experience.
