Hammamet Hotels in October
The large Hotel Mediterranean Thalasso Golf resort has something for each family member from children to mom to dad. There are over 300 rooms on the sprawling grounds of the hotel, which are carefully manicured to feel like an oasis amidst the Tunisian desert. The Hotel Mediterranean has several swimming pools, including one that is indoors, and quick access to a local beach. Because of the carefully manicured lawns, this hotel feels very intimate and much smaller than expected.
Bars and Restaurants
If you are travelling to Hammamet with children, Condor is a great choice. Condor has a wide range of options on its menu including traditional favourites like couscous and lamb but more accessible entrees like pastas. Condor is a very small restaurant, with only two dining rooms, can be hard to find. It is hidden away on a side street so it will be recommended to get directions from your hotel so your taxi can get there without difficulty. Because it is so hard to find, there will be few other tourists during your meal.
Another popular restaurant with local cuisine is Viking. Despite its unique name, this small restaurant has classic options like fish that is caught from the Mediterranean Sea and couscous. But like many restaurants that cater to tourists, there are other cuisines on the menu including Italian. Viking has a range of pizzas and panini that will keep kids and picky eaters happy while others explore Tunisian cuisine.
