The environment of the Thalassa is particularly nice: its beautiful lobby offers an overview of the swimming pool and the beach. The activities offered are sufficiently different to conjugate leisure with relaxation.

The Thalassa is on the seashore, in the touristic zone of Monastir, 4 miles from the north of the town. For the transfer from Monastir airport (located in front of the club), count about 5 minutes for the trip.
Half of the rooms have view of the sea, the others of the swimming pool. The furniture, contemporary style, is neat with light colour wood and tonic colours. Each room has a small balcony, a bathroom with bathtub and hair dryer, satellite television, telephone and adjustable air conditioning.
Opened in 1999, the Thalassa includes a three-storey building including 253 rooms (including 10 junior suites). The decor, sober and refined, give friendliness to the common areas. The lobby is the most spectacular element because it opens to a vast glass bay window with a panoramic view of the sea. The spaces for relaxation are found around a remarkable 14,525 ft² swimming pool. There are sufficiently equipped with parasols, lounge chairs, but they could be better shaded.
The buffet restaurant presents nice small tables in a very refined atmosphere. The room continues into a terrace. The dishes offered include Tunisian, Italian, and international specialities. Two restaurants allow you to have lunch or dinner a la carte.
The Thalassa is just in front of the sea. the beach is of average size, but its equipment (thatch huts, lounge chairs, showers and snack-bar) make it very nice. A nautical base allows you to practice (with supplement) waterski, parasailing, windsurfing, sailing, pedalo, kayak, and jet ski.
To stay at the Thalassa, it is to give yourself amenities of a club in the refined environment of a hotel with charm. Besides, the facility has many good points for a stay during the low season: a beautiful indoor swimming pool with extra features (hammam, Jacuzzi, and sauna.)

The Houda is recommended to those who want to spend active holidays without paying a high price. On the seashore, this club offers land sports activities, water sports, a variety of leisure activities. Its functional accommodations fit couples and families.
Located next to a nice beach, the resort of the Club M Tropicana allows you to spend active holidays with a tight budget. It offers a simple, but friendly environment for a stay with family or friends.
At the Miramar, the decor is refined, the food delicious, and entertainment present without excess. This club has just acquired a thalasso centre. To be appreciated in all seasons.
The Liberty offers many sports and leisure possibilities. Its has a nice environment, but beach lovers will be disappointed because it is not on the seashore.
Offering a good choice of sports and entertainment for holidays placed under the sign of friendliness, the Club Olé Rosa Beach is an address to be remembered for its quality versus price.
This gigantic hotel is like a town with its stores, buildings, restaurants and its market. Lovers of charming hotel will escape from this dull place. On the other hand, families looking for a busy place where you can meet people will be totally satisfied. But you must not forget the price is very, very attractive.
The Kuriat Palace will suit couples looking for pleasant, verdant surroundings in which to spend their holiday in Tunisia, with a beautiful swimming pool and a beach on their doorstep, as it certainly ticks all those boxes! Its only downside though is its unfortunate proximity to the airport; light-sleepers may find the early-morning chartered flight take-offs something of a problem, though others shouldn't be affected. Incidentally, the hotel does not offer an all-inclusive option, but the restaurant charges here are perfectly reasonable.
Built in 2004, the Skanès Sérail is a club that holds few surprises in terms of its location, its services and its holiday atmosphere. The interior decor is that of a typical hotel, but there is quite a lot of entertainment put on for those who don't want to get bored. The more guests there are, the livelier the atmosphere: indeed, it is a good place to meet other holidaymakers, as when it is fully booked, the relaxation facilities are chockablock with people. Goodbye tranquility, hello drinking games!

It is a very big hotel with 505 rooms, able to accommodate up to 1,200 people. We are not in a charming hotel here, but the atmosphere is nice and perfect to young people and families. Without counting that golf lovers will only have to cross the road to go and play.

To stay on the seashore in a friendly and refined environment nothing is better than the Framissima Regency. It has sports features and the entertainment of a club. But it also competes easily with the best hotels in the area, with its refined decor and it caring service.
