We (me, husband and adult son) had a rest in "Novostar Sol Azur" ("Salt Azur") from 1 to 14 August.

We are in Tunisia for the first time. So there is nothing to compare with.

Pozitivchik)))

Number

We were lucky - we got a good room on the 2nd floor, large, with a large balcony with a dryer. Everything worked properly. View of the garden, but Novostar also gave us a piece of the sea (although it was not paid for).

They got off fine. Towels were changed if we threw them on the floor. Bed linen was changed, how often I won’t say - I didn’t remember. Shampoo/gel replenished, they are of very good quality.


The refrigerator was cold, the air conditioner was even too strong - like a beast. There were no cockroaches or anything else in the room. For the sake of interest, they went and looked for them on the territory. The safe worked immediately. But! To our surprise, it was with a code and a key on a huge keychain. And yes, nothing was stolen from us. They didn’t even climb into the cabinets - the husband set traps.

Restaurant

Naturally, having read the reviews, we immediately ran to the waiter Osman with 2 Dinars.
And every evening we did not know the problems at dinner.
At lunch it is more difficult (Osman did not work). A couple of times we wanted to sit down at a table, but the waiter drove us away or the table was sort of booked. The problem was solved by appealing to the elder in a tie.

We decided to come by the second half of lunch and dinner - there were fewer people, we didn’t notice a lack of food, the dishes that ended were replenished and updated, the dishes were available (almost always).

We preferred to have breakfast outside. The tables were clean.

It is pointless to write about food itself. The taste and color ...The choice is large.

It didn’t turn out to my taste, but I didn’t go hungry. Coffee and tea was also not very good for me.

bars

There were no problems here. Personally, we were not diluted with anything, they were not oppressed, they even poured too much. The lobby was always filled with glass.

They also poured it into our dishes, without sparing.

My husband mostly went to the bar, and he is a friend to everyone there.

But he noticed...
Many times wine was poured to him from a new, freshly opened bottle, cold. And the people before him and after him from what was started.

One more moment. There's a new bartender in the lobby at the bar. And on the same evening, like, the brandy ended. After the treatment ...the next evening, my husband was poured and even a double.

The drinks

I drank Pastis and Cedratin + Schweppes, rose wine. The husband of brandy is mostly also wine, he tried Bukha. My son once took a cocktail, did not really like it. But we are so ..."drunks" ...That we couldn't even taste all the drinks there. Basically, my husband drank herbal tea, I coffee and bottled sparkling mineral water. They also drank cola, fanta.

Beach and sea

That's what everyone goes there for. Well...almost everyone...


Of course the sea is amazing! There was everything: waves, calm, and algae...Only we didn't see jellyfish.

Swimming pool

Beautiful, in the middle of a palm tree. Music is playing. Purely. There are almost always free sun loungers.

Nothing got sick after swimming in the pool.

Animation

My husband and I flew to the sea.
Son on animation and in the pool.

My son always played water polo twice a day. Kudos to Artyom!

Sometimes he played volleyball on the beach. My husband sometimes also joined.

I looked and took pictures.

I liked the water aerobics in the sea. Super positive animator from Belle. He also annealed on a zumba near the pool.

A la carte.

We liked everything! Romantic and delicious.

Negative (((

The beach is small, crowded, dirty, there are few places. If you arrive later, you can go back. Chaise lounges and mattresses were old and torn - they themselves were looking for and equipped a place in the shade. Tables, it seemed to us, never wash. Sometimes we had to lie down in the shade on the lawn. It's good that I have 2 men with me, and it would be hard for a woman alone. Sometimes we came to the beach after 12 noon. or after dinner. Super! There was almost no one.

The animation is too unobtrusive. We were bored in the evening.

Children on the Mafia, children on karaoke - we have come and gone.

Watched the evening show several times.
The problem here is that there are very few chairs. It's hard for me to stand for more than an hour in the evening. So we left.

There was one incident in a restaurant. I needed a glass cup. I waited for minutes ...20. I went to the manager in a pink shirt. He nods, but does not carry a cup, then he also began to yell. My husband had to go, and bingo - he immediately brought him 1 cup.

The next day I outlined this problem to the administrator Alina. And there was no more problem. But then the manager looked at me like a wolf.

Complete trash!

No small iron spoons. Is it that expensive? ! We are shocked! How can you eat ice cream with a pipette?


And more ...But the hotel has nothing to do with it. Children pissing in bushes. Companies with screaming speakers. And why put out cigarettes in the hollows of trees? There are no words...

Bliss!

Sea, sea, sea!!!

Beauty is everywhere! What is in the hotel (chandeliers, paintings, architecture ... ), what is on the territory (everything is in palm trees and flowers).

Smells - it smelled so good everywhere. Amazing flower scents everywhere!
Not once did I smell the toilet in the toilet.

We say HUGE THANKS to the girls administrators! They solved all problems. They work for wear.

It's nice when you don't care.

And they also noticed ...When the chief director was not at the hotel, the work did not work at all - on Sundays there was something and some kind of Sabbath.

We also want to mention the security service and the police. They were always on duty and patrolled the territory, especially the coastal ones. We felt
yourself under reliable protection.

Summary...

Liked the hotel. We had a very good rest in Sol! But not WOW. Price=quality)
