10/10 Excellent
"The property is an traditional Berber house that is very tastefully renovated.we stayed in the cave room which was a unique experience, and had all the amenities. I Patrick and Sabine are wonderful hosts.The price includes dinner in addition to breakfast. The dinner was the best I had in Tunisia.They offer a wide selection of Tunisian wines and other liquor. Overall, this is one of the best experience I have had not only in Tunisia."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Matmata?
The best area to stay in Matmata is directly within the troglodyte dwellings, which are the main attraction and offer a unique, immersive experience.

These traditional underground homes, carved into the soft sandstone hills, are concentrated around the central Matmata village. Staying here means you're literally living in a piece of history, with many of these dwellings now converted into guesthouses or hotels. You'll find yourself surrounded by the distinctive crater-like courtyards and interconnected rooms that make Matmata famous.

This is an ideal choice for travellers seeking an authentic cultural experience. You'll be able to explore the village's unique architecture at your leisure, meet local residents, and enjoy the naturally cool temperatures inside the underground rooms.
When is the best time to go to Matmata?
The best time to go to Matmata is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) months.

During these periods, the weather is pleasantly mild, with warm days and cooler evenings, making it ideal for exploring the unique troglodyte dwellings and the surrounding desert landscape. You'll avoid the intense heat of summer and the occasional chill of winter, which can make outdoor activities less comfortable.

For travellers interested in cultural experiences, visiting in spring or autumn often coincides with local festivals or events.
