Anantara Sahara Tozeur Resort & Villas

I would like to share my first experience in Tunisia, specifically at this hotel. Having previously stayed at Anantara The Palm Dubai and Anantara Al Houara, as well as numerous other locations around the world, I was not expecting the staff and food to be as amazing and delicious as they were. I would like to extend my compliments to the chef for being so kind to us and providing excellent service at Anantara Sahara Tozeur. The atmosphere, hospitality, and overall vibe of the place were also exceptional. Thank you to the chef for creating unforgettable memories for us with such exceptional meals.

This is the best 5 star property in Tozeur, Tunisia. The property oozes luxury over a wide space with rooms built for tranquility. Every room has its own porch with garden. Spa is amazing with multiple offerings. Food is amazing and to name one that stands out exceptionally is the Asian restaurant onsite - Mekong. Who knew one can get Asian food in Tunisia that too far removed from Tunis. Breakfast is vast with lots of options.

We were looking forward to visiting this hotel, which was said to be wonderful! It really is a beautiful hotel, with spacious and comfortable rooms. Access to the various areas is via small cars, which always arrive quickly. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is wonderfully well-appointed, with a wide variety of dishes for both dinner and breakfast. They set up a place to watch the sunset, which was wonderful! Unfortunately, however, the maid's cleaning service left a lot to be desired. They forgot to put on a shower cap, two bath towels and, what made us believe that cleanliness is not the strong point of this beautiful hotel, they didn't straighten the sheets on the bed!

The room and cleaning staff have been lovely, but unfortunately the food at the Asian restaurant caused severe food poisoning. I’ve been extremely unwell, vomiting and spending hours in the bathroom, to the point I couldn’t sleep at all. It’s left me feeling anxious about eating anything else during the rest of my stay, which has really impacted the experience. (We only ate food at the hotel…) No accountability was taken. The manager said maybe it was an allergy or a sunstroke. Even though I have not been in the sun, because I am not a person who likes to tan at all, I have been drinking consistently water and been in the shade. An allergy would not cause somebody to throw up the entire night and have to spend their whole night on the toilet. The best they could do for me was send a guy to clean up the vomit or offered ‘medication’. Unfortunately, the overall quality of the food is also quite subpar. In addition to poor customer service.

I would like to share my experience of this trip to Anantara Touzer Hotel “Compliments to the chef! Thank you for making our trip enjoyable Every dish was a true masterpiece—beautifully presented, rich in flavor, and crafted with clear passion and attention to detail. It’s not just a meal, but a memorable culinary experience. Thank you for sharing your talent and elevating our stay!”
