I'll start in order. We traveled as a family of 2 adults and a 5 year old child. Tour operator Biblio Globus. Host Carthage Travel. We went for 12 days, well, one day was eaten by the arrival. We paid 61 thousand rubles for everything. As I managed to find out from the guests, this is the average price for this hotel. We arrived late in the evening. We were given the number 211. Those who have already bought tickets to this "paradise" remember this number and immediately refuse it! Not only is the view from it to the roof of the boiler room from the indoor pool (which, by the way, did not function), but the stench and noise from these pipes under the roof. And the room itself is just gouging: there is a huge hole in the curtain, the phone did not work, the cabinet door was broken and removed from the hinge. Also, the air conditioner blows exactly into the children's bed.
We changed the number the next day. It should be noted that without any problems. But we had to wait for our new room overlooking the main pool to be removed. We settled in. Appreciated the view and rejoiced. As it turned out EARLY!
By the way, on the same day, at a meeting with the guide from Biblio Anastasia, it turned out that everyone in the rooms had some problems and many wanted to change. By the way, at the same time it turned out that air conditioners (antediluvian type) do not work around the clock and do not have individual control. In the cold, they are turned on only after 6 pm! The rest of the time they just blow. UNDER THE CEILING. So if you're traveling with a child and expect to have an afternoon nap in the coolness of your room, forget about it. During the day, the room is stuffy! Speaking of the tour operator. Our guide was great. Resolved all issues of the guests. Helped a lot. But I can imagine how difficult it is for her in this hotel.
So the numbers are:
The air conditioner works intermittently. The rooms are old, a lot of broken or dying. We had nails sticking out of the end of the bed. They were sealed with masking tape. Probably so that no one gets hurt. What a touching concern!
The hair dryer that you are promised in the description is actually some kind of fantastic unit that looks like a Soviet vacuum cleaner. Hardly plow. My tube fell off right away. Two days later, the toilet drain broke. We repaired his TYPE, he immediately broke down again. I didn't run to the front desk anymore. But after a couple of days, apparently the maid reported and we had already repaired it normally.
If you are looking for a restful sleep, do not take rooms overlooking the main pool. The animation will keep you awake. Even with the windows closed. Personally, they cleaned VERY well, left flowers and sweets, replenished shampoos, and we, in turn, left a tip. The hotel also has a serious sewage problem. She stinks everywhere. Especially at the restaurant, where there are tables for a meal on the street. Here you are sitting like this, having lunch, and there is still aromatets all around. And in our room there was a smell of sewage for some reason when the air conditioner was running. Just pipets!
Food.
I confess honestly.
Food for me is the most important thing. And I really liked her here at first. I ate a lot and enjoyed it. This is what let me down. I got sick on the third day. The night wore on. Having treated with smecta and interiofuril, I attacked the food with the same force. Yes, life teaches me nothing. After 5 days, I got such a poisoning that mowed me down for 2 days! ! ! And the medication didn't help much. The next day A similar incident happened to a woman we met at a hotel and hung out together. And then she and I found out at least 4 more poisonings of other Russian tourists. So, no matter how tasty the food is (and I emphasize this), you can’t eat it!
And, of course, these endless lines strained. Even to the trays of the queue as in a mausoleum. And there is always something missing. Now glasses, then spoons for soup, then plates. Rave!
One pleases. We ate watermelon and melons for the summer ahead. By the way, this is the only fruit that they give there.
But he had a bag hanging from his back. I understand that some nations, probably, have such a mentality to live like in a barn, but then you don’t invite tourists to your place. Bathe in your own shit! In short, we rarely went to the beach. And only on a tuk-tuk, which had to literally STORM!
By the way, some saw huge cockroaches in the restaurant. I saw only on our floor and even took a picture. They are the size of a room key!
A la carte restaurant. Nothing special, but worth going for a change. Pleasant service and quite digestible food.
Hamam and Spa!
Our friend went to a free ol inclusive hammam. They sent her to the steam room as usual. She sits there for 5 minutes, 10, half an hour. Nobody wants to wash it. In short, after a while, she spat and just left. At the reception, they gave her a towel and did not even try to stop her, inviting her to the bathhouse itself.
Out of the corner of my ear I heard the conversation of aunts who went to some paid procedures. The main point of the conversation was this: wasted money.
Animation.
Personally, I liked the daytime animation. My husband too. Children's animation was like everywhere else. By the way, the animators are perhaps those few of the hotel staff who treat Russians better than foreigners. Probably because we try to participate in everything. Russian waiters did not notice at all. In Egypt, they always approached us and asked what to bring. Here, not a single waiter was seen in this one. But the Germans and the French, in short, everyone except the Russians, wore drinks. I also noticed that some waiters in the bar poured drinks into plastic for Russians. And then some burgher is served the same thing in glass. But in the lobby bar there is a wonderful bartender, cut to zero, friendly to everyone and serving everyone equally well.
It was not even the apotheosis of everything, but simply an apotheosis.
Findings. Bilio Globus - well done. Everything is clear and on time. No complaints. We were picked up from the hotel early, but we were the first to check in and got very good seats. Transaero, too, well done, all without delay and the food became tastier.
Hotel Hammamet Garden Resort 4 * - horror, horror, horror! It makes sense to go to it only at a very, very, very hot price. With a supply of drugs for poisoning and a bag of patience. Paying two thousand bucks for it is just crazy! ! !
About excursions:
We went to Carthage, we knew that there was nothing special to see there, but it’s worth a trip for show. A thousand years of history though.
Laser show. The show itself is great. Although I would not call it laser. More like theatrical light. But it's captivating. But it’s better to go to Carthage first to find out the history of Tunisia, otherwise you won’t understand anything in this show, what’s what.
We had no luck with dinner.
It just sucked (that's what I always understood), but our tables from Biblio were also disgustingly served. Fanta Colla drinks had to be begged for literally. Wine brought 1 extra time. While other tables were worn without restriction. I wanted to complain to the guide. But he was nowhere to be found, not even on the street. So demand drinks and wine without limits! You have already paid for them.
Pirate ship. We did not take this tour. But we arrived for a walk in the port of Yasmin and we were offered to leave for only 20 dinars. Almost 3 times cheaper than the guide. So it's easier to come to the port and buy an excursion there. The ship departs at 9.00 and at 14.00 (the time may vary by half an hour). It is better to arrive early to get good seats. People are stuffed into this ship like a herring. This is how it looked from the outside. But everyone who went liked it, sort of.
You have to go to Carthage Land yourself. Cheaper and easier. They offer service packages. You can choose what you want.
For example, we took: Carthage Land (actually traction) + 5 d cinema + Medina voyage (You get on a boat and swim indoors and around you moving installations of the history of Tunisia. We liked it !! ! ! ) this package cost 22 dinars for adults. There is also an Ali Baba club. This is a children's play club. In short, a game room. Looks very decent.
It makes no sense to take an aqua couple with a kartage land on the same day, in my opinion. Otherwise, you will have to spend the whole day there.
