Family hotels and homes in Matmata

What a fantastic place and a wonderful host! He was so kind and helpful, even helping us get dinner when we arrived late. He even prepared an amazing breakfast for us, even though it wasn't included in the package. We were so pleased!

Staying here was an incredible experience. The hotel was absolutely gorgeous, down to the last detail and extremely clean and comfortable. At night in the courtyard you look up and feel you are in a bowl of stars. We even saw shooting stars!! It was so special. The owner went above and beyond for us. Tunisia is so easy to get around by louage (8 person shared taxi/bus). But as the hotel is in the dessert it is a bit hard to get to as the buses don't go here. The owner came for us himself to pick us up in Gabes, the closest major city! He was extremely responsive and with messaging on booking.com/whatsapp this was easy to organize! Many people don't drink in Tunisia, but as a tourist the owner was very helpful and offered to us to procure wine/drinks if we would like (which we very much enjoyed!). He also taught me the local card game "chkobba" which I had seen someone playing in a cafe in Tunis. He was a great teacher and so kind of him to do this for me! It made the evening so special. The food was fabulous as well! This is a stunning hotel that has been visited by diplomats from Canada, America and many other places, and when you go you can see why they came. 5 stars!

Big kind welcome by Joseph. He understood what two weary cyclist needed after a day in 35+ temperatures. Even let us choose from two big apartments and threw in a free breakfast at five!! In the morning so we could start pedaling in agreeable temperatures.. big 10 out of 10

Great view and nice pool area. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Rafique was a great host.

I could not recommend it enough, the best accommodation in Tunisia. We received a very warm welcome from the owners. They served us traditional food, which we ate on the terrace with great views over the canyon and mountains. Squeaky clean room, beautifully furnished and spacious. The region is very peaceful and clean, Toujane is a great choice for a "base" to make daytrips from, see the ksars, Sahara desert and even Tozeur (whole day of driving there and back but it's worth it).

Patrick and Sabrina were very helpful and loving host. The place was impeccable and one of a kind. You could only see for yourself. Words cannot express how unique this place is. The dinner and breakfast were beyond standard.
