Tui Blue Palm Beach Hammamet

Very nice hotel, staff and food was great, but the booking wasn’t as good as it should be

We’re just finishing a fantastic 10-day stay in Tunisia and wanted to share our experience in full. Tunisia is a beautiful country with warm-hearted, hard-working people, gorgeous coastal scenery, and a rich culture that we’ve come to deeply appreciate. The hotel grounds are flawless, clearly maintained with care and pride. We found the general amenities excellent, and above all, it’s the staff who make this place truly special. 🌟 Staff Who Made Our Trip Exceptional: Youri – An absolute gem. Respectful, attentive, and made every evening at the bar feel extra special. Adnan and Najem (beach bar) – Funny, kind, tireless, and always made us smile. Ahmed and Abdullah (main bar) – Exemplary service with a calm, professional manner. Ahmed and Malik (restaurant) – Friendly, engaging, and consistently brilliant. The coffee shop vendor (whose name we sadly didn’t get) always went the extra mile and made us the best iced lattes from memory alone. Maha, the Blue Guide Manager, resolved a query for us within 15 minutes — on her day off. Incredibly organised, calm, and kind. Freja, our TUI rep, was warm, happy, and full of positive energy throughout our stay. 🧖‍♀️ Spa Experience: Our first Hammam & Rituals treatment was outstanding — relaxing, authentic, and a highlight for both me and my partner. The first facial treatment with Oifa was also excellent. While the second facial fell short in comparison, the issue was swiftly and professionally resolved by Olfa, the spa manager, who arranged a replacement treatment the same day, which was back to the high standard we’d expected. Her care and professionalism were much appreciated. 🍴 Food & Drink: Food is delicious, especially the Tunisian dishes, though it can feel slightly repetitive after a week. Be sure to book into the Culinarium à la carte restaurant — stunning food and worth the added cost for wine. The cocktails were some of the best we’ve had anywhere in the world — beautifully made every time. 🌊 Beach & Facilities: The beach is pristine, with plenty of loungers, towels, and helpful staff always on hand. Watersports and pedalos are available for a small fee — highly recommended. Walk left along the coast for some rocky coves and stunning sea views. 🎭 Entertainment & Activities: Entertainment is friendly but repetitive. Daily activities include darts, shuffleboard, boules, aqua aerobics, etc., and while enjoyable, there’s little variation. If you like fitness classes, book early — places are limited. We felt that without excursions, the resort can lean towards a “sit and sizzle” style holiday. If you want more variety, we recommend booking excursions through the hotel or TUI — it’s safer and more comfortable than roaming on your own. One standout activity was the Tunisian language class. It was insightful and helped us connect more with locals. We’d love to see it offered regularly. 💡 Tips for Future Travellers: Tipping goes a long way. Just 10 dinar (about £2.50) can really brighte

This is the best hotel we have ever been too. The food and service is amazing, and the entertainment team couldn’t be better.

We have just returned from this beautiful hotel and are missing it already. The staff are amazing and I mean everyone, the food was very good and I loved trying the Tunisian dishes, all were delicious. We had a lovely sea view room, my only complaint is no soft drinks in the mini fridge. The grounds are beautiful lots of flowers and palm trees, plenty of sunbeds and the beach and sea were gorgeous . We had a fantastic holiday 👌😊💙 I really loved the art work in the hotel and would like the name of the artist
