Best Hotels in Hammamet for Every Budget — 37 Real Picks From £34 (2026)

Our top Hammamet hotel pick for 2026 is the Radisson Blu Resort & Thalasso Hammamet — an internationally-run five-star with a huge seawater spa and the strongest review record on the coast — but the real story of Hammamet is how little a proper Mediterranean beach holiday costs here: real, bookable rooms start at £34 a night, and the four-star all-inclusives that fill the resort start around £85. Hammamet is Tunisia's original seaside resort, on the Cap Bon peninsula, and it remains one of the cheapest sandy-beach holidays a UK family can reach. We've built this guide around all three price bands: 10 luxury thalasso resorts, 10 mid-range four-star beach hotels, and 17 budget stays, 37 in all, every one verified as a real, distinct, currently bookable property, each linking straight to its live prices where available.

Hammamet sits on the Gulf of Hammamet on Tunisia's Cap Bon peninsula, roughly 40 minutes from Enfidha–Hammamet airport (NBE). The town splits into two moods: the older resort around the whitewashed medina and 15th-century kasbah on the seafront, and Yasmine Hammamet, a purpose-built marina-and-resort zone about 10 minutes south where the big all-inclusives, the marina and the Medina Mediterranea theme-village cluster. Long sandy Blue Flag beaches, a strong thalassotherapy-spa tradition, golf courses, and easy day-trips to Tunis, Carthage and Sidi Bou Said make it a relaxed, good-value base — a family package hub that also works for couples and spa travellers.

The Scout's Take: Hammamet Nord, Yasmine Hammamet, or the Medina Side?
Hammamet is really two resorts stitched together, and picking the right one matters more than picking the hotel.
Hammamet Nord — the original resort — wraps around the town's whitewashed medina and kasbah on the seafront. This is the greener, older, slightly calmer side: you can walk into a real souk, sit in a local café, and reach the town beach on foot. Many of the classic thalasso hotels (The Sindbad, Mehari, The Mirage) sit along this stretch. Choose it if you want a sense of Tunisian town life alongside the beach.
Yasmine Hammamet — about 10 minutes south — is the purpose-built resort zone: a marina, the Medina Mediterranea theme-village, a golf course, nightlife, and most of the big all-inclusive four- and five-stars (Medina Solaria, Alhambra, Royal Tulip Taj Sultan, The Russelior, La Badira). It's newer, more self-contained and built for a families-and-groups package holiday where you barely leave the resort strip. Choose it for the widest all-inclusive choice and the easiest kids' holiday.
The medina/town side is also where the genuinely cheap rooms are — small hotels and guesthouses a short walk from the sand, trading the beachfront-resort package for a lower headline price. That's where this guide's budget tier lives.
For a first family beach week, go Yasmine Hammamet for the all-inclusive choice. For a spa week or a couples' trip, the thalasso flagships on either side work. For the lowest price, look town-side. Compare live Hammamet hotel prices or search UK flights to NBE.

The design-led boutique of the tier and the town's premier adults-only five-star — a calm, contemporary thalasso hotel aimed squarely at couples and spa travellers who want style and quiet over kids'-club buzz.

Cheap Hotels in Hammamet — 37 Real, Bookable Options From £34
This is the tier that makes Hammamet one of the cheapest sandy-beach holidays a UK traveller can book. Every property below is a real, currently operating hotel or guesthouse we verified as distinct, with live rates on its JetMeAway page where available. Be clear on the spread, though: the cheapest medina-side rooms genuinely start at £34 a night, but this tier climbs to around £166 at the top, because several entries are four-star beach hotels or thalasso resorts sold half-board or all-inclusive — so the nightly number bundles meals rather than being a bare room rate. We've ordered them cheapest-first so you can see exactly where the line is. From-prices were pulled on live searches while writing; spring and autumn run cheaper than the July–August package peak. Tap any hotel for today's price on your dates.

22. Hotel Les Citronniers — Hammamet · 2★ · from ~£41/night.

Check the latest live details before booking.

23. Green Golf Hammamet — Hammamet · 2★ · 6 reviews · from ~£65/night. A simple two-star near the golf area, handy for budget golfers or travellers who want a cheap base with the fairways close by. Modest facilities, low price.

24. Hotel La Residence Hammamet — Hammamet · unrated · 4,535 reviews · from ~£73/night.

28. Hotel Residence Romane — Hammamet · 3★ · 60 reviews · from ~£83/night. A modest three-star residence, a budget-friendly base for travellers who want a real hotel over an apartment at a still-low price.
All-inclusive and spa hotels at the top of budget (£115–166)
These read pricier because they bundle meals and, in several cases, thalasso-spa access into the nightly rate — the number isn't a bare room.

29. Houda Yasmine Marina & SPA — Yasmine Hammamet · 4★ · 192 reviews · from ~£115/night. A four-star beside the Yasmine marina with a spa and pools — a well-located all-inclusive at the lower end of the resort-priced band, handy for the marina restaurants and boat trips.

30. Hotel Aziza Thalasso Golf – Adults Only — Yasmine Hammamet · 4★ · 54 reviews · from ~£124/night. An adults-only (16+) four-star combining thalasso spa and golf access — a quiet, wellness-and-fairways base for couples, with the nightly rate reflecting the spa-and-board inclusions.

33. Hotel Sol Azur Beach — Hammamet · 4★ · 113 reviews · from ~£137/night. A four-star beachfront all-inclusive with pools and gardens, a well-reviewed family resort on the Hammamet side — a solid all-in week for the money.

34. Diar Lemdina — Yasmine Hammamet · 4★ · 79 reviews · from ~£142/night. A Moorish-village-styled four-star near Medina Mediterranea, with characterful architecture, pools and an all-inclusive board — one of the more atmospheric resort designs in the budget-top band.

35. Le Royal Hotels & Resorts – Hammamet — Hammamet · 5★ · 100 reviews · from ~£146/night. A five-star resort at a price that lands it in the top of the budget band on an all-inclusive basis — a lot of hotel for the money if you catch it at this rate, with full resort facilities and grounds.

36. Medina Belisaire & Thalasso Hotel — Yasmine Hammamet · 4★ · 78 reviews · from ~£163/night. A big thalasso four-star beside the Medina Mediterranea complex — the rate bundles spa access and board, making it a wellness-and-theme-village family base rather than a bare-room bargain.

37. Hotel Dar Khayam — Hammamet · 3★ · 5 reviews · from ~£166/night. The top of this guide's budget band by price — a three-star town-side hotel whose all-inclusive rate marks the ceiling of the tier.

Best Hammamet Hotels for Specific Trips
The first Hammamet decision is Hammamet Nord (town-and-medina side) versus Yasmine Hammamet (the marina-resort strip); the second is what kind of trip you're taking. Here's how the 37 hotels above sort by traveller type.
Best Hammamet Hotels for Families With Kids
The Yasmine Hammamet all-inclusives are built for families. Medina Solaria And Thalasso sits right beside the Medina Mediterranea theme-village; The Orangers Beach Resort and Bungalows gives kids garden-bungalow space to roam; and El Mouradi El Menzah is the classic dependable family four-star. On a budget, Hotel Sol Azur Beach and Hotel Nesrine Hammamet deliver a family all-inclusive for less.
Best Hammamet Hotels for Couples and Adults-Only
For a calmer, grown-up week, Hammamet has a strong adults-only line-up. La Badira – Adults Only is the design-led five-star; TMK Flora Park by Turismark is the most-reviewed adults-only four-star on the coast; and Hotel Aziza Thalasso Golf pairs spa and golf for 16-plus guests. The Mirage Resort & SPA on its hillside is the scenic couples' splurge.
Best Hammamet Hotels for a Spa / Thalasso Week
Hammamet is a Mediterranean thalasso capital. Radisson Blu Resort & Thalasso, Royal Azur Thalassa, Medina Solaria And Thalasso and Mehari Hammamet Thalasso & SPA all build around big seawater-spa centres, with Mehari the best-value five-star entry. Many sell multi-day thalasso cure packages alongside the room.

Best Hammamet Hotels for Golf
Hammamet is a winter-sun golf base. Hotel Aziza Thalasso Golf and Green Golf Hammamet sit closest to the fairways, and the Yasmine-strip resorts like Royal Tulip Taj Sultan arrange tee times. Low green fees and mild spring/autumn weather make it a genuine golf-and-beach combination.
Booking Hammamet Hotels in 2026: Seasons, Board and the Value Question
Hammamet room rates swing mostly on season and board basis. The dearest, busiest stretch is July–August, when European school holidays fill the all-inclusives; spring (April–June) and autumn (September–early November) are the value sweet spot, with warm sea, thinner crowds and lower prices. Winter is cheapest of all but too cool for the beach — a spa, golf or sightseeing break rather than a swimming one.
The number that decides your real cost isn't just the headline nightly rate — it's the board basis. A £34 town-side room is a bare bed; a £140 Yasmine all-inclusive bundles all your meals and drinks. For a family who'll eat every meal at the hotel, the all-inclusive is often the cheaper total once you'd have paid for food anyway; for a couple who want to eat out in the medina or at the marina, a cheaper half-board or B&B room plus meals out can win. Price the two models against each other before you book. Compare live 2026 Hammamet prices to see today's number on your dates.
UK Practicalities
- Flights: Enfidha–Hammamet (NBE) is the main gateway, ~40 minutes from the resort; Tunis (TUN) and Monastir (MIR) are alternatives about an hour away. TUI and package carriers run direct summer flights from several UK airports — compare scheduled fares against flight-plus-hotel packages, which often win. Search flights to NBE.
- Airport transfer: about 40 minutes by road from NBE. Package bookings usually include a coach transfer; independent travellers can pre-book a private transfer or agree a taxi fare firmly before setting off.
- Visa: UK passport holders get up to 90 days visa-free — an entry stamp on arrival. Check passport validity before you fly.
- Currency: the Tunisian dinar (TND), a closed currency — roughly TND 4 to £1. Get dinar on arrival, don't over-withdraw (you can't take much out), and carry cash for the medina, cafés, taxis and tips. Resorts and bigger shops take cards.
- Alcohol & dress: served in tourist hotels, resort bars and many restaurants; less visible outside the tourist zones. Relaxed on the beach and in resorts; modest dress appreciated in the medina and local areas.
- Best months: April–June and September–early November for warm-sea value; July–August is hottest and priciest; winter is cheap but not for swimming.
- Budget: cheapest town-side rooms from ~£34/night; mid-range four-star all-inclusives ~£85–165; five-star thalasso ~£124–300+. A spring or autumn all-inclusive family week can undercut a comparable Spanish or Greek package.

Hammamet Hotels FAQs
How much does a hotel in Hammamet cost per night in 2026? Hammamet is one of the cheapest Mediterranean beach resorts UK travellers can reach. On live searches while writing, real bookable rates ran from about £34 a night at a simple medina guesthouse up to £300+ for a five-star thalasso suite. The mid-range sweet spot is solid four-star beach hotels from roughly £85–165, many sold half-board or all-inclusive. July–August is dearest; spring and autumn are the best value.
Where should I stay in Hammamet — the old town or Yasmine Hammamet? Hammamet Nord, around the whitewashed medina and kasbah, is closer to the town's shops, cafés and original beach — handier for a bit of Tunisian street life. Yasmine Hammamet, about 10 minutes south, is the purpose-built marina-and-resort strip with the big all-inclusives, the marina, the Medina Mediterranea theme-village and the nightlife. First family beach holiday: Yasmine Hammamet. Want the town on your doorstep: stay nearer the medina.
What is the cheapest area to stay in Hammamet?
The town side around the medina, where small hotels and guesthouses like Hotel Le Khalife (£34) and Hotel Les Citronniers (£41) undercut the marina resorts. Yasmine Hammamet's rates are higher because most hotels bundle full-board or all-inclusive food and drink into the price. For the lowest headline number, look town-side; for everything included, price the all-inclusives against what you'd spend on meals separately.
Is Hammamet good for a family package holiday? Very — it's arguably Tunisia's most family-friendly resort. Yasmine Hammamet was built for it: big all-inclusive four- and five-stars with pools, kids' clubs, shallow sandy beaches and easy Enfidha transfers. The Orangers Beach Resort, El Mouradi El Menzah and Hammamet Garden Resort are typical family picks, and the whole thing costs a fraction of a comparable Spanish or Greek package.
Which airport do I fly into for Hammamet? Enfidha–Hammamet (NBE), about 40 minutes from the resort, is the main gateway and where most UK charter and package flights land. Tunis (TUN) and Monastir (MIR) are each about an hour away as alternatives. Compare scheduled fares with flight-plus-hotel packages, which often undercut booking separately.
Are Hammamet's beaches any good? Yes — long, sandy and gently shelving, several flying the Blue Flag. The calm, shallow bay is why Hammamet became a family resort. The Yasmine Hammamet strip has the widest, best-groomed beaches; the town beach near the medina is more local and lively. The sea is warmest June–October, with comfortable swimming into late September/October.
What is a thalasso hotel and why are there so many in Hammamet? Thalassotherapy is seawater-based spa treatment — heated seawater pools, hydro-massage, seaweed and mud wraps — and Hammamet is one of the Mediterranean's biggest thalasso centres. Flagships like the Radisson Blu, Royal Azur Thalassa, Medina Solaria, Alhambra and Mehari are built around large thalasso spas, letting you combine a beach holiday with a genuine spa week for far less than a European thalasso destination.
How many hotels are in this Hammamet guide? Thirty-seven, every one a real, currently bookable property we verified — no padding. They split into 10 luxury (mostly five-star thalasso resorts), 10 mid-range four-star beach hotels, and 17 budget stays from £34. Each hotel links to its own live-price page where it's on our wholesale feed.
Is Hammamet cheaper than Spain or Greece for a beach holiday? Generally yes, especially once meals and drinks are counted. Tunisia is one of the lowest-cost Mediterranean beach destinations for UK holidaymakers, and Hammamet's all-inclusive model undercuts a self-catering week in the Costas or the Greek islands. The flight is a similar length. The trade-off is that facilities are more variable at the budget end than a like-priced Spanish hotel.
What currency is used in Hammamet and can I use my card? The Tunisian dinar (TND), a closed currency you can't buy or sell outside the country — roughly TND 4 to £1. Get dinar on arrival and don't over-withdraw, as it's illegal to take large amounts out. Resorts and bigger shops take cards, but carry cash for the medina souks, cafés, taxis and tips.
When is the cheapest time to visit Hammamet? Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–early November) — warm, sunny and much cheaper than the July–August package peak. Midsummer is hottest and priciest; winter is cheapest but too cool for the beach, though the thalasso hotels run wellness breaks. For warm-sea value, aim for late May–June or September.
Do Hammamet hotels serve alcohol? Yes, in tourist hotels, resort bars and many restaurants in Hammamet and Yasmine Hammamet — the all-inclusives include local beer, wine and spirits. It's less visible outside the tourist zones. Dress and behaviour are relaxed inside resorts and on the beach; modest dress is appreciated at the medina, mosques and in local town areas.
Is Hammamet safe for tourists? Hammamet is a long-established, well-policed resort town and the main tourist areas are considered safe with normal holiday common sense. Keep an eye on belongings on the beach, agree taxi fares first, and expect friendly but persistent sales patter in the souks. Check your government's current travel advice before booking, as with any destination.
What's the difference between half-board and all-inclusive in Hammamet? Half-board covers breakfast and dinner; all-inclusive adds lunch, snacks and (usually local-brand) drinks all day. In Hammamet the all-inclusive model dominates the Yasmine strip and is where the family value is. Half-board suits travellers who want to eat out in the town or marina. Always check what 'all-inclusive' covers — imported spirits and à-la-carte restaurants are often extra.
How far is Hammamet from Tunis and Carthage? About an hour's drive north — an easy day trip to the UNESCO medina, the Bardo Museum's Roman mosaics, the ruins of Carthage and blue-and-white Sidi Bou Said. Many hotels and local operators run the excursion, or you can hire a driver for the day. It's the standard culture day out from a Hammamet beach base.
Are there adults-only hotels in Hammamet? Yes, several. La Badira is the flagship adults-only five-star; TMK Flora Park and TMK L'Atrium Yasmine (both Turismark) are adults-only four-stars; and Hotel Aziza Thalasso Golf is adults-only (16+). They trade the kids'-club buzz for quiet pools and a spa focus — good for a romantic or wellness week.
Can I play golf in Hammamet? Yes — Hammamet is one of Tunisia's main golf destinations, with well-regarded courses (the Yasmine and Citrus courses among them). Several hotels do golf packages with buggy transfers, and Hotel Aziza Thalasso Golf and Green Golf Hammamet sit close to the fairways. Green fees are low by UK standards, and mild spring/autumn weather makes it a winter-sun golf option.
What is there to do in Hammamet besides the beach? The whitewashed medina and 15th-century kasbah are a compact seafront old town; the Yasmine marina has restaurants and boat trips; Medina Mediterranea is a theme-village of souks and shows; and Dar Sebastian's International Cultural Centre hosts a summer festival in a Roman-style theatre. Day trips reach Tunis/Carthage, the pottery town of Nabeul next door, and Roman ruins further afield.
Is Hammamet or Sousse better for a holiday? Both are beach resorts on the same coast served by Enfidha, so it's about vibe. Hammamet is the older, greener, calmer resort with a pretty medina and a strong thalasso scene — good for families and couples. Sousse is a bigger, livelier city-resort with more nightlife and the Port El Kantaoui marina nearby. Quieter and prettier: Hammamet. Busier with more going on: Sousse. They're an easy day-trip apart.
Do I need a visa to visit Tunisia from the UK? UK passport holders don't need a visa for tourist stays of up to 90 days — you get an entry stamp on arrival. Keep reasonable passport validity. Package travellers may find their operator handles some formalities, but always check passport validity and the latest entry rules before you fly.
Which Hammamet hotels have the best spa or thalasso facilities? The five-star thalasso flagships: Radisson Blu Resort & Thalasso, Royal Azur Thalassa, Medina Solaria And Thalasso, The Mirage Resort & Spa, Alhambra Thalasso and Mehari Hammamet Thalasso all build around large seawater spa centres, with La Badira the boutique design choice. If a serious spa week is the point, compare these — many sell multi-day thalasso cure packages.
How do I get from Enfidha airport to my Hammamet hotel? About 40 minutes by road. Most package bookings include a coach transfer; independent travellers can pre-book a private transfer, use a hotel car, or take a taxi (agree the fare first). There's no direct train, so road transfer is the norm, and it's well-organised in season.
Are Hammamet all-inclusive hotels good value for drinks? For local-brand drinks, yes — Tunisian beer, wine and spirits are included at most all-inclusives and represent real savings for a family or group. Imported spirits, branded soft drinks and speciality cocktails are often chargeable extras or served only at à-la-carte bars, so check each hotel's fine print. The value case is strongest for travellers happy with local brands.
Can I visit the Sahara or Star Wars sites from Hammamet? Not as an easy day trip — the desert and the famous Star Wars filming country (around Tozeur, Matmata and the far south) are a long way off, better reached from Djerba or on a multi-day tour. From Hammamet the realistic excursions are Tunis/Carthage/Sidi Bou Said, Nabeul's pottery market, and the El Jem amphitheatre. For the Sahara, look at a two- or three-day overland tour.
How do I book these exact Hammamet hotels at the prices shown? Every hotel on our live wholesale feed links to its own page on JetMeAway — real-time rates, all taxes and fees shown, and a date picker to match your trip. The from-prices here were pulled on live searches while writing, so your dates will differ; tap through for today's number. Where a property isn't on our live feed, it links to the general Hammamet search. No booking fees either way.
Is Hammamet worth visiting in winter? For a beach holiday, no — it's too cool to swim comfortably from about November to April. But for a low-cost winter-sun city-and-spa break it works: the thalasso hotels stay open with wellness packages, golf is pleasant, and rates are lowest. For sunbathing and swimming, come May–October; for a spa, golf or sightseeing break, winter Hammamet is cheap and quiet.
