Yadis Ksar Ghilane Campsite hotel

Crossing the desert to reach this luxurious oasis is really worth the effort. On one side, you're surrounded by a sea of sand dunes which is a welcome change from the more steppe-like deserts in other parts of Tunisia. This particular oasis is home to rooms, but each room just happens to be a desert tent.

Outside, you're in a magical oasis setting but once you enter the tent you find a space that's tremendously comfortable to spend the night: an enormous bed, tea tables, a large bathroom, and even AC! The rest of the facilities are good, too...there's a pool and a tower where you can enjoy the views.

This place really combines desert and luxury (well, all the luxury to be expected in a desert). You sleep out in camp-style tents but all have a shower and bath, firm floors, and enormous king-size beds. The best part, though, aren't the rooms but rather the giant swimming pool surrounded by palm trees that's perfect for a nighttime swim while you gaze up at an unspoiled night sky.

If you're a fan of sunrises, this hotel is also a good choice. You can go to the top of the tower on the premises, or make the 5-min. walk to the beginning of the desert and enjoy the spectacle. It's just breath-taking.

Amazing, really amazing to be sleeping in an oasis in the Sahara desert. The resort has about 60 tents with AC and even bathroom, yes indeed it is a certain kind of tent.

He centrepiece of the sprawling hotel grounds is an observation tower and swimming pool lined by teak beach chairs. Replete with groves of date palms, olive trees and tamarisks, the grounds are a lush and dramatic contrast to the talcum-powder-fine sand that serves as the hotel's "floor."
The hotel also honours the area's Berber heritage by decorating every common room and all the tents with furniture, fabrics and works of art reflecting the culture of the semi-nomadic tribes who have roamed the northern Sahara for centuries.
