In the hotel zone of Hammamet Yasmine, 985 ft from the beach and 7 miles from the town centre. The transfer from Tunis airport (located 37 miles away), count about 45 minutes for the trip.
The Vincci Taj Sultan has 252 rooms: 17 suites, 84 quad rooms and the rest double or triple rooms. The majority of the rooms has a view over the swimming pool, the gardens and the sea, sideways or facing them. The other rooms on the back overlook the area of Yasmine. Furnished with taste, they continue into a balcony equipped with a garden set. The decor, with bedspread and curtains with flowers, evoke somewhat the English style. A big closet with mirror doors adds to the sensation of space. The air conditioning has been installed as well as the telephone. A safe is available (with fee). The bathrooms with separate water closet, offer bathtub and welcome products of the chain Vincci.
Dating from 2003, the Vincci Taj Sultan is a half circle building two-storey high. Built-in balconies are decorated with white wood bannisters and rows of tiles with blue varnish cover certain details, towers, cupolas, and roof overhangings. Inside, a big marble lobby offers refinement and conviviality at the same time thanks to a play of colours warming up the aspect a bit cold of the polish stone. Installed near the glass bay window brightening the lobby, light yellow and almond green living rooms allow you to drink looking at the swimming pool and the gardens. Particularly wide, it is cheered up with a footbridge and an ornamental fountain. Lawns carefully manicured welcome lounge chairs and sunshades.
The main restaurant offers buffets in a room made very bright by its glass bay window and its tables with white tablecloths. Several clear partitions assure some intimacy to the guests. You can take your meals on the terrace overlooking the swimming pool. Dishes, simple but good, are inspired from French recipes that have become international: sauté of beef, blanquette of veal are next to fish with herbs, pastas gratin, and steamed vegetables. The buffet allows you also to taste Tunisian specialities, with couscous, soup, tajine or pastries with semolina and honey. To eat close to the beach, a snack-bar has been established on the seashore. Finally, the à la carte restaurant, where in the evening a pianist plays, offers the possibility of dining in a warm and muted atmosphere, tying in mahogany brown, brick red, and orangy-brown.
Large area of fine sand, the beach stretches in front of the hotel, along the Mediterranean with its beautiful turquoise blue colour. Thatch huts have been installed in reasonably tight rows, which allows for tanning without being bothered. Lounge chairs are furnished. The beach towels are furnished with a deposit. A boat club independent from the hotel allows you to practice kayaking, windsurfing, and sailing with a supplement.
Well adapted to families, the Vincci Taj Sultan has all the infrastructures necessary to welcome the youngest: a playground has been planned and also a small swimming pool, and a club-children takes care of children 4 to 12 years old. Activities offered allow you to spend a game stay for those who desire it, but they do not bother the tranquillity of those who prefer to relax in the garden. The Vincci Taj Sultan also has a health centre using Phytomer products through a variety of cares: massages, balneotherapy, esthetic treatments for the body and the face.

Hôtel très conviviale et personnels très accueillant, la nourriture est bonne et il y a du choix pour tous. L'hôtel est très bien placé, possibilité de prendre des bus et des bus locaux (très marrant) pour ce rendre a hammamet qui est situé a côté ainsi que les autres villes comme sidi bou Saïd, Tunis, Carthage...
Bonne nourriture, cadre sympa, près de la plage, grande piscine et proximité des grandes villes.
Pas assez de soirées a thèmes..

Member of the Leading Hotels of the World, the Hasdrubal Thalassa is an address you must not miss because of its luxury atmosphere and its high standard amenities. Its Thalasso centre offers a full package and a la carte treatments. For a relaxing stay in a prestigious environment.
New hotel of good standing, the Saphir Palace is a good choice to spend some holidays close to the beach without sacrificing comfort. To recommend also to go to the casino and discover the attractions of the Medina of Yasmine without having to rent a car.
A modern hotel that will delight families and no doubt children will want to come back. Everything is ready for them; discotheque, swimming pool, workshops... Finally, some vacations without parents on your back! As for adults, they are able to do sports because here, the choice is large.
Two golf courses located close to the hotel attract many players to the Magic Life Africana. After having played a little golf, golfers meet in a peaceful environment surrounded by a 12 acre garden and in front of the beach. Here, sports and leisure activities, meals and drinks are available at your wish. Once the stay is paid for, you don't have to spend another penny.
This is a 4 star hotel that doesn't deserve more than 3, not only because of the appearance and the condition of the rooms, which are simple and not luxurious, but also in terms of the food, where variety and quality are rare. However, the establishment remains affordable and perfect for those who want to spend a few relaxing days by the sea without spending too much or expecting too much in terms of services.
The Diar Lemdina hotel stands out among the other establishments in Hammamet. It's tucked away in the heart of the new medina of Hammamet, thus making you feel like a local resident of the town. Despite being modern, the hotel does not lack detail. However, this location also means that you'll have to put up with the noise usually present in the medina, i.e. loud music, constant background noise, etc.
The newest arrival in the Vincci family, the Flora Park is an utter oddity in the tourist area of Yasmine. Opened in April 2010, it joined the very exclusive club of charming hotels in Hammamet after a complete 4 month renovation. This boutique hotel holds 100 guest rooms conducive to relaxation... but not to keeping busy during the day! Sports facilities are few and activities are non-existent. We would first and foremost recommend it to couples.
Perfect to spend quiet vacations in a grand standing hotel, the Iberostar Averroes also has the advantage of being located in the new station of Yasmine Hammamet. You can therefore visit the Yasmine médina without needing a car.
This is a modern and elegant complex located in a very peaceful area of one of Hammamet's tourist districts. This hotel displaying traditional Arabic decor will provide you with a very comfortable stay, where you can also make the most of the thalassotherapy care provided.

Hammamet's first 5 star Prestige hotel, The Russelior could have easily snapped up a sixth star without any hang-ups in this area bursting with family club hotels. Having opened in April 2010, this hotel is on a mission to give the luxury hotel sector both in Tunisia and abroad a new image, a far cry from the bling-bling luxury of certain other establishments. The very successful result of its endeavours certainly makes this hotel worth a stay, or at least a visit so you can see its spectacular lobby!
The hotel boasts a majestic architectural style and enjoys a privileged location by the beach. It's the perfect place for a couple of days of rest and relaxation.
Two golf courses located close to the hotel attract many players to the Magic Life Africana.

This hotel is located near the marina of Yasmine Hammamet, and is ideal for a thalassotherapy therapy. On the agenda are relaxation and conditioning, to get oxygenated at the edge of the Grande Bleue.
A superb hotel with 276 rooms deserving its 4 stars. Big spaces, thalassotherapy centre, very professional entertainment team, three swimming pools, everything has been prepared to accommodate children, parents, couples or groups of friends in this hotel. Good holidays guaranteed .
The high class of this hotel, different from the big buildings without charm located along the coast. Here, refined decor, elegant staff, discrete entertainment, and fine dining attract couples and small families looking for calm and relaxation.
