My husband and I are planning to stay in Tunisia for a month this June, and we’re looking for recommendations on where we should stay and how to find an apartment rental.

We are not interested in tourist attractions and beach resorts, but are looking for a charming place where Americans can feel comfortable integrating with local daily life.

We’re hoping to spend $1000 or less for a month. We also need to stay somewhere with reliable internet connection so we can work. We’ve considered Kairouan, Mahdia & Tunis. Where else and what do you recommend…?

All of the vacation rental websites seem to focus on the mega resort towns… which are not our style. How can we find an short term apartment to rent?
