Hammamet Old Medina - 3 Holiday Charming Houses
DAR EL MEDINA, DAR EL BAHR and DAR AÏN - 3 GUEST HOUSES·
The Medina of Hammamet is one of the most beautiful in the world, completely surrounded by a wall that defends it from the Mediterranean sea, one would say that it floats on the sea like a ship. Located on the wall and overlooking the gulf of white and endless beaches, Dar El Medina, Dar el Bah
r and Dar Aïn are the first large windows of this imaginary ship, in which the superb dome of Sidi Bou Hdid, next to the house, rests on the bow. Adapted to the soft shapes of the Arab coastal constructions, the houses maintain a luminous air due to the absolute white that covers traditional walls, domes, and floors. The internal floors completely marble and the crossed arches of some of its rooms are supported on columns recovered from stone and granite in a sensual fusion of Arab, Roman Mare Nostrum, and fishing life by the sea. Taking as inspiration the fabulous summers of the 70s that Hammamet enjoyed the first European travelers, the decoration allows the coexistence of the plastic functionality of Panton with the modest wood-painted white musharabía furniture of local crafts.
