Stay. Get Inspired. Create.
Stay. Get Inspired. Create.
A coastal retreat in the Mediterranean for creative souls
Welcome to Your Creative Home
Dreamed by Claudia, now nurtured by Claudia and Khalil.
Tucked away in a quiet corner of northern Tunisia along the Mediterranean coast, our home celebrates presence, connection, simplicity, and eco-conscious living.
Villa Sounine is more than a guesthouse — it’s a sanctuary for inspired minds and open hearts.
A place to recharge, to create, and to feel truly alive.
Come to reconnect. Stay to create. Leave transformed.
Different Ways to Stay
“In the whispers of the wind and the murmur of the sea,
the heart discovers its melody.”
-Aboul-Qacem Echebb
By the Sea, Near Tunis
About an hour from Tunis and Bizerte lies Sounine — a quiet coastal village, cradled between rolling hills and the whisper of the sea.
Here, the sea speaks in shades of blue, and the wind carries only silence.
Time isn’t filled — it’s felt.
You don’t just arrive — you return.

Creative Residency
Villa Sounine welcomes artists, writers, makers and curious souls seeking time, space, and inspiration to create.
Here, you can focus on a project, reconnect with your practice, or simply nourish your creativity in a peaceful and inspiring setting.
There’s no set program — everyone brings their own rhythm, tools, and vision.
Whether you come alone or as a pair, for two weeks or several months, this is time set aside — outside the noise.
Rates vary depending on length of stay and what you need (accommodation, studio access, shared moments, etc.).
Feel free to write to us and tell us about your needs and wishes.
