Nursing and care home in Monastir
Looking for a nursing home in Monastir, or a care home in an exceptional setting? This is where Silver Resorts has established its flagship residence: the Esplanade hotel, right on the seafront along the corniche, in the heart of one of the most beautiful coastal towns in Tunisia. With 150 places, a swimming pool, on-site medical support and medicalised beds on request, it is an ideal place to enjoy your retirement in the sun, whether you are fully independent or need a little more support.
The Esplanade hotel: our residence in Monastir
In Monastir, Silver Resorts offers its senior service within the Esplanade hotel, on Avenue Habib Bourguiba, right on the seafront corniche, just a short walk from the beach. The residence can welcome up to 150 residents in comfortable, hotel-style surroundings, with a swimming pool and relaxation areas facing the Mediterranean.
Medical support is provided on site: nurses and care assistants look after residents day to day, and medicalised beds can be installed on request as needs change. The Esplanade therefore welcomes both independent seniors and less independent residents, in the same way as our nursing and care homes in Tunisia.
Seafront living
Monastir is a delight all year round, with its mild climate, sandy beaches, marina and lively corniche. From the residence, residents enjoy the sea, the pool and a calm, light-filled setting. To find out more about the town, its attractions and its history, see our dedicated Monastir page.
Our services and medical support
The Esplanade offers an all-inclusive stay, tailored to each resident’s level of independence:
- comfortable seafront accommodation, with a swimming pool and relaxation areas;
- on-site catering and activities designed for seniors;
- medical support: nurses and care assistants, with medicalised beds on request;
- a team on hand every day for safety and wellbeing.
This is the principle behind our retirement homes and nursing homes in Tunisia.

Why retire in Monastir
Monastir has everything you need for a wonderful retirement:
- the seafront and a mild climate all year round;
- Tunisia is a French and Arabic-speaking country, but English is widely understood in tourist areas, in the private clinics we work with, and among our staff;
- close to home: roughly a 3-hour direct flight from London;
- a cost of living far cheaper than the UK, with practical guidance on local tax matters.
Retiring abroad can affect how your UK pension and taxes are handled, so we recommend speaking to a UK-based tax and financial adviser before you move. On the Tunisian side, Silver Resorts can put you in touch with a Tunisian tax adviser who will explain the local rules. To plan your retirement in Monastir, read our guide to retiring in Tunisia.
