Rezidor has opened the Radisson Blu Resort & Thalasso, Monastir, the brand’s second property in Tunisia. Architect Tawfiq Bin Hdid and interior designer Mohamed Gaoua were responsible for the project.
 The resort’s 280 guestrooms and suites are all equipped with private balconies overlooking the pool area and Mediterranean Sea. Resort amenities include three restaurants, six bars and lounges, several indoor and outdoor swimming pools, athletic facilities, business center, and a kids’ club. Indoor and outdoor function space is also available to guests.
Opening early next year, the expansive Royal Elyssa Spa Cinq Mondes & Thalasso will feature a 48,000-square-foot Thal’ion Thalasso center specializing in restorative treatments using seawater and a 43,000-square-foot spa. The facility will offer guests saunas, hammams, treatment rooms, and F&B outlets. In addition, the top floor of the spa will feature 20 unique spa suites, many with private Jacuzzis and beauty treatment rooms. A fitness club and hair salon will also be part of the spa.
