Hotels near Yasmine Hammamet

Yasmine Hammamet is a purpose-built resort area 7 km south of the original Hammamet town, developed since the 1990s around a yacht marina. The complex includes 70+ hotels, the Medina Yasmine (a recreated Arabic souk-style mall), Carthageland theme park, a casino, and the main concentration of beach resorts and nightclubs. Newer and more polished than the original Hammamet town centre but lacking the cultural depth.

The Yasmine Marina hosts 700+ berths and is the largest yacht harbour in North Africa. The Medina Yasmine shopping mall sells souvenirs at fixed (touristy) prices - the original Hammamet Medina is better for genuine shopping. The Bin Bal beachfront strip has the largest nightclubs (Manhattan, Calypso). Most visitors stay in Yasmine and visit old Hammamet on a day trip. Free to walk; mall and marina open daily.

Pro Tip: Combine a Yasmine Marina sunset walk with dinner at one of the marina-side restaurants - the seafood at Le Galion (40-80 TND for a fish main) is the best on the marina. Skip Medina Yasmine and shop at the original old Medina instead.
