The Roman columns of Carthage have stood in the sea breeze for two millennia, and a few kilometres north on the Gammarth coast, Four Seasons picks up that Mediterranean conversation in a contemporary Arabesque accent. Opened in late 2017, the hotel was designed by HKS/Hill Glazier Studio with interiors by Brayton Hughes, its open colonnades letting waves and wind flow through. All 203 rooms, including 35 suites, pair white lines, warm timber and floor-to-ceiling windows with traditional Tunisian woodwork. Three Mediterranean Suites each come with a butler's pantry, private office and sea-view terrace, while the 550-square-metre Presidential Suite commands the rooftop with a tiered terrace and private pool. A white-sand private beach, complimentary cabanas and Atlas Tennis Academy round out the grounds. Carthage International Airport is 20 minutes away; Sidi Bou Said under 10.
Five dining venues run from beachfront to rooftop. The Creek Bistro Chic occupies the top floor with Italian-French Riviera coastal cuisine and an unbroken Mediterranean view. BLU Seafood Kitchen & Bar sits on the sand, pairing the day's catch with poolside sunset views. Azur handles all-day dining, Salon Alyssa sets a café tone, and The Creek Lounge fills the hours with cocktails. The Spa, by Blu Spas, draws on Carthaginian and Roman bathing traditions across 11 treatment rooms, most sea-facing — plus a VIP suite with twin beds and private garden. A traditional hammam anchors the experience; the signature "Travel to Carthage" treatment uses local botanicals. The indoor-outdoor pool retracts its glass walls in warmer months, blurring the line between lap lane and open sea. Carthage's ruins, Sidi Bou Said's blue doors and the Medina of Tunis are all within a half-hour drive, a Four Seasons where the present and the ancient share the same sentence.
