Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet is an all-inclusive holiday resort in Tunisia
You'll find the Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet on the coast in Hammamet, Tunisia. The Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet is an all-inclusive holiday resort suitable for couples and families - with a 5 star rating, this is the place to come for a rather nice holiday in the sun.
The Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet has two outdoor swimming pools - I've decided to start with the swimming pools as this is likely to be the place where you'll want to spend much of your time. One of the pools is the focal point of the hotel and can be found directly behind the Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet; surrounded by sun loungers you can lay by the pool and keep an eye on your children - or get stuck into some swimming, with bubble beds and a swim-up bar to make the most of.
The second, slightly smaller pool is a 30 second walk from the main hotel, and closer to the beach. This pool also has plenty of sun loungers to spend your time with a good book.
A little more about Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet
The hotel itself is a low rise affair with 5 storeys; there are numerous "apartment" type rooms spread out in the gardens. These apartments are often described as bungalows - although they are 2 storeys - so not really a bungalow! During our holiday at the Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet, we were fortunate enough to stay in one of the apartments - and had one which backed out onto the pool the area. If I had a choice, I'd definitely go for a "bungalow"; it feels like a private villa - but with all-inclusive.Oh yes, the all-inclusive. The Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet is all-inclusive, which means, for those who don't know, that all your drinks and food is included in the price of your holiday. And what lovely food it is - breakfast, lunch and dinner is all served as a buffet, with a large choice of both hot and cold options at all meal times.
Bow-tie clad waiters roam the pool area too, bringing whatever drinks you require.
When to visit the Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet
We took our Riu Marhaba Palace Hammamet holiday at the end of March to get away from the British cold weather. The weather in Tunisia was between 19°C and 27°C, so lovely and warm. March is still winter in Tunisia (although it certainly isn't winter as we know it), which means that the hotel wasn't too busy. Although be aware the pool isn't heated, and the sun hasn't had time to work its magic on the pool.Would we come here again? Yes indeed! This is the place to come after a hard British winter - and it's only 2½ hours flying time from Gatwick.
