Rested with a friend in Tunisia for the first time. Tour from Pegasus in Dessol Saadia Resort bought a week before departure. It could have been bought much cheaper. The trip as a whole was very pleasant. Departed from St. Petersburg on 07/25/2013 at 14:10, arrived in Monastir at 15:45 (flying 4 hours +). At the airport of Monastir, we were met by a guide from Pegasus and, after passing through passport control, we were taken to the Dessole Saadia Resort hotel, where we were placed in rooms for 30-40 minutes. We got a room on the second floor for three people, in which we lived together. The room consisted of a rather large room, which had 3 beds, 2 bedside tables, a rather long table along one wall, on which hung a mirror and a TV. There were also two built-in wardrobes in the room, one wardrobe - with an upper and lower shelf and a large number of coat hangers, the second - with two shelves, on the top there was a small safe, on the bottom - a small refrigerator (so to speak, a mini-bar). Unfortunately, the key to the safe was lost and we could not use it, although, if desired, it was possible to leave documents, money and valuables in the safe at the reception for free. The room had a bathroom and toilet. The bathroom had a bathtub with a shower and a washbasin, a large mirror above the washbasin, a hairdryer, three large towels, three medium towels, a foot mat and three beach towels, as well as a set of necessary soap accessories on the washbasin: shampoo, shower gel , body milk, hair conditioner and shower cap. The room, bathroom and toilet were cleaned daily, towels were changed every 3 days, except for beach ones, because it was simply not possible to change them, since we constantly took them to the beach with us. Twice we asked at the time of cleaning to replace them and we immediately changed them to clean ones. The air conditioning worked constantly, the room was always fresh, everything was cleaned, polished and smelled good. Yes, even from the room there was an exit to the loggia, in which there was a small table and three chairs, on one of the walls there was a hanger where you could dry the necessary things.
The territory on which the hotel is located is quite large, very well-groomed, a wonderful garden with plants unusual for us, several bars where you can drink any drinks during the day: water, juices, tea, coffee, cocoa, beer, wine. The pool bar serves ice cream and chocolate pancakes. Breakfasts, lunches and dinners - buffet in the main restaurant, amazing variety and high quality of dishes, I especially want to note the excellent pastries. Fruits are also daily on the menu: watermelons, melons, plums, grapes.
There is a large pool and a children's pool on the territory, many people prefer to sunbathe and swim here, along the pool there is always a sufficient number of sunbeds with mattresses and umbrellas. The water is always clean, blue. In the large pool, games and aqua aerobics are held daily, most vacationers take part in them with pleasure. I would like to note the excellent work of the animators, every evening they hold animations for children and adults, in which most vacationers participate with pleasure.

The hotel is located on the second line, it takes 10 minutes to go to the sea, you can also take a horse-drawn carriage for free. The beach is sandy, with a sufficient number of umbrellas and sunbeds with mattresses. The sea is warm and clean enough, only two days there were big waves that brought algae and garbage . . we were lucky, we practically did not encounter jellyfish, although they stung some . .
I would also like to note the excellent excursion programs offered by Pegasus. We chose the Sahara tour (2 days) and did not regret it. We saw the whole of Tunisia: from Carthage, the life of triglodytes in caves, camel rides and sunset in the Sahara Desert, to sunrise on the dry salty sea, green oases in the desert, a frenzied jeep race on the sands and swimming in a waterfall. In general, our 10 days flew by unnoticed, what a pity it was to leave this beautiful vacation spot. I remember Tunisia as a warm gentle sea, cheerful friendly people, endless sands of the Sahara desert, a caravan of camels at sunset. We flew away on 08/04/2013 at 03:55 from Monastir with a great desire to return to this hotel again.
