HOLIDAY company TUI has added four new hotels to its portfolio in Brit-loved destinations like Italy, Tunisia and Turkey.
The TUI Blue Hotels will have features like a splash park, outdoor pools and colourful flume rides.
They currently have hotels in Austria, Croatia, Germany, Portugal, Spain, Tanzania, Thailand, Turkey and Vietnam.
The newly-announced properties include 4T TUI BLUE Budoni in Sardinia, Italy.
Located on Sardinia’s north-east coast, the hotel has two outdoor pools that sit alongside a splash park with four slides.
There’s also a Daytime activity programme that includes a host of activities like yoga, table tennis and exercise classes.
Other features include a buffet restaurant and a pizzeria where guests can grab a bite to eat at mealtimes.
TUI Blue has also opened two new properties in Tunisia.
Both the 4T+ TUI BLUE Manar and 4T TUI BLUE Palm Beach Hammamet are located in Hammamet, Tunisia.
The holiday resort was once dubbed the “St Tropez of Tunisia” thanks to affordable breaks.
Tourist numbers plummeted to the hotspot following a terrorist attack in Tunisia in 2015, where thirty Brits were killed at a hotel at Port El Kanaoui following a shooting on the beach.
Flights resumed to Tunisia back in 2018 after a ban was lifted, with the once-popular seaside resort town growing in popularity.
