Couleur Méditerranée

Top choice in Northern Tunisia


Just outside Tabarka on the road that snakes east of town, Couleur Méditerranée is the secret holiday home you wished you owned. It's a crisp white modern villa with rooms and terraces overlooking both pool and sea, modern rooms, cosy communal spaces (if you visit in winter you can enjoy a log fire) and lovely breakfasts.
