Iberostar Selection Kuriat Palace
The Iberostar Selection Kuriat Palace is a beachfront hotel on the coast of Monastir, in northeastern Tunisia. It has several outdoor pools, garden areas with walking paths, and direct access to a sandy beach.
Monastir grew from a small Mediterranean fishing settlement into a regional city over many centuries. Tourism development along its coastline began in the second half of the 20th century, and the hotel was built as part of that growth.
The hotel sits close to Monastir, a town where fishing has long shaped daily life and local cooking. Guests can taste that connection in the restaurants, where fresh seafood and Tunisian recipes appear on the menu alongside more familiar dishes.
The hotel works on an all-inclusive basis, so meals and drinks are covered during the stay. Renting a car is a practical option for guests who want to explore Monastir or the wider region, as the property sits away from the city center.
The hotel takes its name from the Kuriat Islands, a small group of islands lying just off the coast nearby that serve as a nesting ground for sea turtles. This makes the stretch of coastline around the hotel one of the few places in Tunisia where turtle activity has been recorded close to a tourist area.
