Sousse Pearl Marriott Resort and Spa

The Sousse Pearl Marriott Resort and Spa is a high-rise hotel in central Sousse, so you'll be right in the heart of the hustle and bustle. Walk out the front entrance and you’re on the central palm-lined boulevard, which is lined with shops, bars and restaurants, and really comes to life after nightfall. Stroll out the back, and you’ll come face to face with soft golden sands and the gently shelving Mediterranean Sea. 

Be warned, though, you may not want to budge from the hotel’s stylish pools. There are four of them, including a glass-fronted number with a waterfall, one with a whirlpool corner and another with a miniature splash area for little ones. The surrounding terraces are cloaked in palm trees, and sunbeds and parasols are on-hand for tanning. You’ll find an additional pool indoors – part of the JUMANA Spa by Sothys. The centre is beautifully designed, with dark woods and tribal-style sculptures, and a treatment menu that ticks off massages, wraps and facials.
