Spending a night in the desert is a traveler’s dream. Pansea Ksar Ghilane offers the possibility of spending a night in a tent in the desert with the comfort of a hotel room. Though tents are not well maintained, the experience remains untouched. Tents are basic but very comfortable, with A/C and comfortable beds inside. A huge swimming pool helps... More

How refreshing after the noise of Djerba. We only stayed one night but would have loved to stay longer. Lovely pool very welcome after the heat of the day. Accomodation in luxury tents with all mod cons, very atmospheric. We were greeted personally by the manager who was extremely helpful. We thought hard before booking, as the alternative accomodation was... More

We spent a night at the Pansea and it was wonderful! This is luxury style camping and the whole ambiance was incredible. After dinner (which was very good), one of the local guys took us through a side door to the dunes and we were there, in the vast desert, with only the moon light showing us the way..... Marvelous.

A fantastic desert camp. Although next to a number of rather downmarket competitors, it still gives the felling of a remote location. Access is easy with asphalt now all the way, except the last 500 meters (but doable in a normal 2x4 car). Beautiful tents and pool. Great desert experieces (horseback, 4x4, etc.). Beats places like Al Maha Dubai easily... More

The location is beautiful. That's it. The air con broke down. There was no light to guide us into our tent. Tent has huge rips. I had to kill a scorpion running around by our bedside. As 'drop in' independent travelers, we paid nearly $200 for one night. Stay away. try the other few tent hotels nearby. They can't be... More

Four nights at an oasis just into the Tunisian desert - amazing! We were driven there in a 4x4 for three hours from Djerba airport. There are a set of tents with air conditioning and ensuite facilities, on the sand, surrounded by palm trees. It isn't really camping, but that suited us. The pool is excellent, with a very large...

It’s a long trip, and really only accessible by 4x4 making it an expensive adventure, even in Tunisia. However to be in the desert with a power shower, air con and blissful swimming pool is near on luxury and one can almost excuse a few holes in the tent and generally tired furnishings. 5 years ago this place was probably...

This could be a fantastic experience but is spoiled by sloppy service - most guests arrive from the coast for one night only, so it seems that the hotel has decided there will be no repeat business, therefore no need to try at all. We travelled independently and spent two nights in the desert at Ksar Ghilane. Pansea is just... More

One of the most unique hotels I have ever stayed at. Luxurious tent rooms, with indoor plumbing. The location, right at the edge of the Sahara, offers breathtaking views from a tower, of a few minutes walk from one's tent. Staff is great. This is truly Saharan elegance
