At the gates of ancient Carthage on a wide, warm beach lapped by the Mediterranean stands The Residence, a fabulous property combining the architectural splendour of a Moorish palace with the elegance and sophistication that members of the ‘Leading Hotels of the World’ have come to symbolise.
It’s a wonderfully serene place, perfect for a relaxing holiday, with a glorious swimming pool set in landscaped gardens bordered by the wonderful expanse of private beach (open May to September), and it forms the ideal base from which to discover the historic riches of Tunisia. The hotel interiors are at once exotic and contemporary; rich dark wood furniture and sumptuous fabrics are set against a backdrop of cool ivory and crisp white linen, to dramatic effect.
This inspired blend of opulence and minimalism has been embraced throughout - the choice between Chinese and Mediterranean dishes or the hotel’s own Bio Privilege menus featuring organically grown Tunisian produce means that whether you are a gastronome or a dieter, the hotel has menus to satisfy the most discerning palate. L’Oliver is where you can savour Mediterranean specialities while enjoying panoramic views from the terrace, and authentic Chinese dishes are served in a refined atmosphere at Li Bai.
But it is the Thermes Marins de Carthage thalassotherapy spa that is really special. In surroundings startlingly evocative of ancient Roman Baths, guests can surrender to the therapeutic benefits and sheer pleasure of seawater treatments administered by highly trained specialists. Healthy living is a pleasure as you are pampered with a bubbling seawater bath, hydro massage, power jets and an affusion shower massage.
In the summer, children are amused at the Dolphin Club, where educational and fun activities are organised by English speaking supervisors. Facilities include a restaurant for juniors, paddling pool, games room and a playground. A baby-sitting service is also available. |
