The Hilton Skanes Monastir Beach Resort will welcome guests in 2022.

Hilton recently announced an agreement with the Marhaba Beach Company to open the Hilton Skanes Monastir Beach Resort overlooking the beach of the Gulf of Hammamet and located two kilometers from the international airport Monastir Habib Bourguiba, as part of the new residential and commercial development of Palm Lake Monastir and close to the historic towns of Monastir and Sousse.

As travellers plan their vacations and dream of new destinations to visit, we see great potential to expand our portfolio in resort locations across North Africa. Tunisia has a rich tradition of tourism and hospitality and we are delighted to be partnering with owner Societe Marhaba Beach to bring Hilton to the beautiful resort of Skanes as we grow our portfolio in locations across the country.

Carlos Khneisser, vice president of development, Middle East and Africa for Hilton.

With 332 rooms and suites, the Hilton Skanes Monastir Beach Resort will feature two outdoor pools, a spa and wellness center with an indoor pool, as well as fitness facilities, tennis courts and a children's club.

Hichem Driss, Owner of Societe Marhaba Beach:

We are delighted to form a partnership with Hilton to open a premier resort – part of the Palm Lake Monastir development – a new investment in Skanes that will feature retail, entertainment and residential. We are proud to bring Hilton’s renowned hospitality to the Tunisian coast, which will further enhance the tourism offering and international appeal of the destination.
