Oasis in non-touristy part of La Marsa
I loved the Dar Souad! It’s like a little oasis in what’s a slightly so-so part of town. It’s a 15-min walk to the beach. Taxi rides are easy to snag. (Though hotel staff helped us with important rides - like to the airport.)
The staff is truly the highlight: very kind and helpful. The Dar’s decor is somewhat eclectic, and your appreciation for it grows. Little pool very pleasant after a hot day. Some of the property is a little warn (e.g., room bolts)
We had a beautiful stay. The staff were so friendly and kind. The breakfast was stunning, traditional Tunisian. The bedrooms were clean. Within walking distance of la Marsa (10 mins) and sidi bou said (40 mins). 20 minute drive from Tunis - 20 dinah using bolt taxi but a nicer place to stay than centre of Tunis as it was quiet and lovely. Loved the little guide Feriel (owner) did on via QR code. Very handy.
Unfortunately I was only able to visit this beautiful hotel for 4 hours due to a flight delay; however, I made use of it to the max with a great swim in the beautiful forested environment followed by a comfortable bath in my spacious room.
Very charming, family run hotel. Very friendly and helpful owners who always had time to chat or answer questions. Amazing home cooked meals are availabe upon request. They were delicious.
Nothing to complain about. I only would like to mention about mosquitos at the courtyard by the pool ( mosquito spray was available) , also TV in my room didnt work ( no signal) . Not sure if it was only my room. Shampoo was missing in the bathroom.
The mother and daughters own and run this boutique hotel-guest house in the middle of La Marsa neighborhood. It is not far from La Marsa beach and more lively neighborhoods, but this property does seem to be an isolated located. For someone from North America, it is too remote to access to anything and anywhere, but I can see it looks like an oasis property if you seek privacy. The owners and staffs are super friendly, but other than the two daughters who speak fluent English, everyone else is French or Arabic only. They put information pamphlets which give extremely useful tips about how to get around. But for those like me who did not do enough planning and homework, it is very difficult to get around and about, given the fact that it is a poor country and tourism services are few and far between. Ideally you only go there if you have relatives or friends who know how to live there. But on top of that, I make grocery store runs every day (15 min walk) to Monoprix and Carre Four, at least to get bottled waters, and limited choices of things you can eat. Not easy to find varieties of food eateries around. Again barebone tourism resources.
But the daughter owner was able to call her friend to pick me up from the hotel/guest house at 5:30am and dropped me at the airport for departure. I appreciate that even I need to pay more. Consider if you don’t have a Bolt app and speak French or Arabic, chances are that you won’t be able to go anywhere.
This is a beautiful place to stay, hidden away from the city. It feels like you have been invited to stay in your best friends house, but they provide amazing food. The room i stayed in had a balcony, and I was able to stand outside as the sun set, listening to the call to prayers. There is one thing: you must be able to carry bags up tight stairways. My suitcase was 60 lbs (23 kg) and i needed help. But I can't wait to return!
Très bonne maison bien entretenu très bien reçu je recommande fortement

Accueil pas très chaleureux par la patriarche, heureusement sa fille était plus sympathique.
Quand je suis arrivé au dernier étage sans ascenseur avec ma grosse valise dans ma chambre à 25* j’ai cru qu’il en faisait 30.
Hôtel plutôt bien situé à 10mn à pieds de la corniche de Marsa
Lieu vraiment magnifique et calme . Nous avons bien mangé au petit déjeuner les divers spécialités locales. La chambre était également très jolie . 😍
Il y a 2 locataires qui se promènent dans la maison , un chat et un chien tres gentils 🙂
Bonne adresse meme si nous n'avons pas eu la chambre que j avais réservée...La proprietaire s est rattrapée en nous offrant l aperitif et le dîner qui etait simple mais bon.
Hébergement à recommander, pour l'accueil chaleureux, les chambres grandes et confortables. Petits déjeuners et repas délicieux servis dans un cadre enchanteur autour de la piscine.
Si nous avons l'occasion de revenir à Tunis nous retournerons à Dar Souad
La beauté du lieu d'un grand raffinement, un petit déjeuner somptueux avec des produits maison délicieux, des hôtes charmants. On s'y sent comme chez soi et on a qu'une idée en tête : refaire la déco chez soi !!
This hotel is a secret gem in the heart of La Marsa. The owner, Raja, was so kind and wonderful too. She made our stay perfect. Will definitely be staying again.
