The Vibe : A desert wonder.

The Area: Surrounded by the majestic Sahara, towering palms and endless salt lake. The oasis city of Tozeur rose to fame as a film location for the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies. Once a Roman outpost, the city has a rich travel history as a major stopover point for caravans traversing the Sahara, while the old medina of Tozeur, Ouled el Hwadef, is a must-visit of its own.

The DNA: Offering a luxury gateway to ancient cultural and desert wonders, the new-build Anantara Sahara Tozeur Resort & Villas showcases exquisite Arabian and north African design. Amenities include five dining outlets, an Arabian cultural village, an Anantara Spa, a kid’s club, floodlit tennis courts and a fitness club with yoga studio. 

Suite-Me-Up: World-class facilities include 93 luxurious and spacious accommodation options set in clusters along weaving pathways and amongst landscaped courtyards, and include deluxe Sahara view rooms, one- and two-bedroom villas and pool villas.
