THE FACTS ABOUT HOTEL DAR DHIAFA

Tunisia Djerba

WHERE IS IT In a sleepy village on Djerba island, off the south-east coast of Tunisia. WHAT'S ON OFFER An unpretentious guesthouse hidden behind thick, butter-yellow walls: it's the antithesis of the gargantuan package hotels that made Djerba infamous. The 14 rooms are built around five courtyards, and butterflies flit about a small swimming pool flanked by flower-filled urns and sun loungers. Dar Dhiafa was featured in our guide to Jerba.
