The property is located a short distance from the centre of Houmt Souk and is an absolute gem. Enclosed in a private walled area complete with electric security gates. Once closed it's like being in a private holiday resort. The gardens and pool area are beautiful and the individual suites are built in a local architectural style. The facilities are modern and the level of cleanliness is outstanding.
We were grateful for the exceptional nights sleep thanks to the comfortable and firm mattress and the quietness of the area. The hosts were extremely welcoming and ensured every aspect of our stay was pleasant and enjoyable. For those into star gazing, the absence of street lighting and general light pollution results in a fantastic view of the sky at night
As for breakfast...WOW! A huge diverse breaksfast is served every morning in the restaurant with all ingredients being fresh and home cooked. Without giving too much away the restaurant area is amazing. You have to see with your own eyes the marvellous dome that has been constructed from (we were told) 7,200 individual bricks.....a real treat for the eyes.
All in all a perfect place if you are looking for peace and quite in superb surroundings without being too far out from the centre of town. Once of the best places we have ever stayed and makes a change from the normal chain hotels or small bed and breakfast places.
As a final bonus we asked for a taxi to the airport to be booked. Not sure if there was a misunderstanding but rather than ordering a taxi, the owner personally drove us to the aiprort in the morning and wouldnt accept any payment. I'm not saying everybody will get the same, but it was a lovel gesture on our last day.
10/10 in all aspects. Thank you for providng us with a lovely stay!
This is not specific to the hotel but in general if you're staying in Djerba and you intend on exploring and seeing the full island and/or visiting the mainland - a hire car is a must. Whilst local taxis are cheap and plentiful in the main towns, holidaying in Djerba without a car isn't...
