Apartments for rent in Tunis

If one place concentrates the bulk of Tunisia's property listings, and rental apartments in particular, it is the capital. Every year Tunis welcomes thousands of tenants who come from all over the country to settle here. The rental market is dynamic, extremely varied, and hard to read without a few landmarks. Between upmarket residential districts, working-class neighbourhoods, more affordable areas and fast-growing suburbs, the choice is enormous.

Are you a student? A young civil servant? A family? An expatriate? Or simply passing through Tunis? Browse the listings on houni.tn for a short stay of a few days, a furnished apartment by the month or a long-term home. Find the property that suits you, financially and personally, in no time.

A genuinely dynamic rental market

The Tunisian capital brings together the country's main universities, corporate headquarters, embassies and leading hospitals. That keeps rental demand steady whatever the season. Beyond local demand, tourists and travelling professionals are constantly looking for daily or weekly apartment rentals in Tunis.

The housing stock is remarkably mixed: period buildings in the Medina, modern developments with a caretaker and parking, turnkey furnished apartments, and new-build homes in expanding districts. That diversity is a real advantage for tenants who know where to look.

The most sought-after areas for renting an apartment in Tunis

The northern residential suburbs

La Marsa is one of the most desirable addresses in Tunis. Looking for an apartment to rent in La Marsa? The town wins people over with its quality of life, its closeness to the sea and its excellent shops. Rents are considerably higher than in the city centre, but so is the quality of life. Ain Zaghouan Nord, meanwhile, appeals to families and professionals looking for peace and quiet, with more generous floor areas at competitive prices compared with central districts.

Les Jardins de Carthage is a modern, secure area popular with expatriates and executives. Apartments there stand out for their gated residences, green spaces and easy access to the main roads.

Central and semi-central districts

Lafayette is a central district very well served by public transport, ideal for professionals who want to cut their daily commute. Ennasr 1 needs no introduction: a quiet residential area with excellent local shops and services, particularly popular with families and professionals looking for calm within easy reach of the city.

Manar 2, Le Bardo and El Menzah have built their reputation on spacious apartments. Manar 2 in particular attracts families and students enrolled at nearby faculties, such as the El Manar university campus.

Affordable, working-class districts

El Omrane, Cité El Khadra, Séjoumi and Sidi El Béchir offer homes at lower rents while staying well connected to the rest of the city. The Medina rounds out the picture with a wide range of layouts, from compact studios to spacious family apartments.

Daily apartment rentals in Tunis

Short-term rental is growing fast in Tunis. Daily apartment rentals mainly serve business travellers, tourists and Tunisian families living abroad who are visiting for a short stay. The format offers more independence than a hotel, often at a lower cost.

For this kind of stay, the best-suited areas are La Marsa, Lafayette, Les Jardins de Carthage and the districts close to the main commercial arteries. Furnished, fully equipped apartments dominate this segment.

Furnished apartments in Tunis by the month

Monthly furnished rental is a popular alternative, particularly for people on professional assignment, master's students or families waiting to move into a permanent home.

A furnished apartment usually includes basic furniture, essential appliances and sometimes utilities (water, electricity, internet). Prices vary with location, property type and comfort level. Budget on average between 800 and 2,500 TND a month depending on the district and what is included.
