We chose a country in which we had not yet rested. The experience is bitter, you should definitely read the reviews. They settled quickly, but the air conditioner did not work in the room, so they opened the windows, but then the fight against mosquitoes began. The food is very poor and monotonous of fruits, only oranges, but after the scandals they began to give out watermelons, two pieces per plate (I think this is humiliating) and gave melon several times.

There were not enough plates, glasses, forks and dirty tablecloths. There are not enough mattresses on the beach and rotting algae tried to disperse them into the sea with the help of a grader.
Very beautiful territory, room cleaning is normal, if you leave a dinar, they will decorate it with flowers!
Very good animator Sam!

The hotel is small, but the rooms are generally good and spacious. The hotel is purely for Russians! met only a couple of Europeans, probably accidentally got there. Food is a separate issue... One evening we came late so we almost didn’t get anything, you need to be from the opening of the restaurant, otherwise you will have to wait a long time for clean plates, glasses and so on, and of course you won’t get much from food))) There were fruits only oranges, when in other hotels there were watermelons, melons, strawberries.

The wine was diluted. Beach: there is also a pontoon (although it is still shallow) and a gentle entry, for those with children. Sea water pool. The disco is: Serdyuchka, Valera, Oh my God, what a man, and so on....We didn’t notice any living creatures in the form of cockroaches or other insects, although maybe we were just lucky! )) And yes, the main thing for some, the Internet only catches at the reception, and then in the region of 20 meters))) but for free!

Let's make a reservation right away that before that we were in Turkey 4 times, Spain, Paris twice, Poland, Germany, Belgrade, Venice, Italy, Belgium.

Let's make a reservation right away that before that we were in Turkey 4 times, Spain, Paris twice, Poland, Germany, Belgrade, Venice, Italy, Belgium. So there is something to compare.
About everything in order.
Flight, transfer.
Departed from St. Petersburg without delay at 11:20. We flew for about 4 hours by Tunisian Airlines, flight attendants and stewards do not speak Russian, knowledge of English helped a lot. The steward told me that this crew already had 4 flights back and forth without a break for rest. We were fed on the plane (once), not very tasty, but with beer, or rather with whiskey bought in duty free, it will go))) raw potato salad, as I understand it, is a specialty of Tunisian airlines. Transfer from Monastir airport took about 10 minutes. Very fast. The driver was not given a tip. he didn't get overwhelmed. Apparently he didn't like it. He put on such a disgruntled face that it was sickening to watch)))
Money in Tunisia. Money, or rather dollars, was changed at the airport at the normal rate, for 250 dollars we were given 404 dinars. It comes out to about 20 rubles per dinar. Exchange offices are available in all decent stores. The course is about the same everywhere, so feel free to change.
Settlement. Rooms in the hotel.
Upon arrival at the hotel, we were immediately taken to the restaurant for lunch. For a room with a sea view at the reception they asked for $ 80, we refused. We were given a room on the first floor in a two-story bungalow with a balcony on the ground))) We refused to settle in such a room. And the porter boy ran to the reception for the key to another room. They gave me a normal room, on the second floor with air conditioning, a large balcony overlooking the neighboring bungalows and the neighboring hotel. The beds in the room are made of stone, with large mattresses on top. Interestingly, the bathroom has a small window, you can wash and watch the local scenery. The towels were old, grey, but clean and ironed.
Cleaning. The room was cleaned every day, bows with flowers were laid out on the bed. I left $3 on the mirror for the cleaner, she didn't take it. It turned out that a tip for the cleaning lady should be put on the bed)))
Service. Staff. The staff is smiling, friendly, but lazy, they don’t even want to do anything for money. The general impression is that everything is done "for fuck off", and so it goes, tyap blunder. One bartender, when asked to put ice in my cola, replied that the cola was already cold, went to the refrigerator, took out ice with his hand and put it in my glass.
Nutrition. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in the same main restaurant. The food is very good, everything is delicious. Meat every day, chicken, fish, salads, cakes, cookies, sweets, watermelons, peaches, pears, apples, grapes, melons. There were soups, french fries, pasta, rice. For breakfast they gave scrambled eggs, cereals, yoghurts, dry breakfasts, croissants. There were no queues. Coffee, hot chocolate, black or green tea only for breakfast. The rest of the time, the snake bar is open around the clock, where you can drink tea, coffee, refresh yourself with croissants, rolls, pizza. Everything is very tasty and fresh. I managed to gain 5 kg in a week. So be careful, delicious food is the path to obesity. An army of flies spoils the appetite, and in the evening a regiment of mosquitoes. Take mosquito spray with you.
Alcohol and drinks. Sprite, cola, fanta in the hotel are very tasty.
Alcoholic drinks in the hotel g... but !! ! Wine in the restaurant for lunch and dinner is still drinkable. Beer sucks! Cocktails are all diluted with water in violation of all proportions in bottles that do not correspond to reality))) It is impossible to get drunk in this hotel !! ! Of course there is no ultra in this hotel!! ! Although some Russians negotiated with bartenders for money, and they gave them whiskey, wine, vodka.
For those who like to drink, it is better to stock up on alcohol in duty free in Russia. there is only one small duty free shop at Monastir airport. There are no problems with duty free shops at the new Edfidna airport.
Sea. The water in the sea is very warm, salty))) There were jellyfish. The first days we were lucky, there were no jellyfish. There have been a lot of them for the last three days. We were stung five times. At first it burns very strongly, then the burn area turns red and swells. The comments say that you need to rub the tomato, but the tomato is not so easy to find. So, on the advice of experienced people, we rubbed the burnt places with sand. Helps. It doesn't hurt for long.
The hotel area is small. Lots of greenery, palm trees, grass, clean. There is only one outdoor pool with sea water, there are two more indoor pools.
We did not attend Thalasso therapy because for one day of procedures requested 150 dinars. We thought it was too expensive.
Shopping is distinguished by oriental features. We need to bargain))) For example, we bought a small handmade rug for 350 dinars, 30x30 knots per 1 cm² , the original price of this carpet was 550 dinars. Of course it's a little expensive, but such a souvenir))) There are three shopping points near the hotel. The first is a safari, in front of the hotel. The prices in this store are average. You can buy souvenirs, olive oil, natural shampoo, organic oil, silver. Silver prices are three times higher. So haggle))) To the right of the hotel there is a three-story Fola store, there are fixed prices for goods. There are souvenirs, bags, clothes. To the left of the hotel on the main road there is a shop, my husband called this shop a selmag. everything is like in a rural store))) In the village store you can buy T-shirts, textiles, souvenirs, cigarettes, magnets, etc. Cigarettes in Tunisia are full of g... but !!!
Excursions. We didn't go on excursions. We independently traveled to the Medina in Sousse (8 dinars for two there and back) and to the Medina in Monastir (20 dinars for two, there and back). Everyone who was on an excursion in the Sahara for 2 days praised this excursion very much. They showed photos. Really very beautiful.
Animation. Animators at the hotel work from morning until late at night. There are Russian speakers.
The contingent of vacationers. The hotel was mainly occupied by the French, but there were also Russians, Poles, Germans, Italians. There were no conflicts in the hotel. We met and talked with Poles Dorota and Krzyszek. Very cultured and kind people.
Output. The hotel clearly does not pull on the declared 4 stars, it is an economy class hotel for people without pretensions. On any vacation you need to go in a good mood, not to pay attention to the little things. Despite the excellent mood and food, we definitely will not return to this hotel! Good luck and stay positive!

Our indignation knows no bounds! I do not even know where to start. . It can turn out chaotically, the darkness of emotions! ! I must say right away that we have repeatedly been to Turkey, Spain, etc. This year we wanted to visit Italy, but it didn’t work out with a visa, they spat, and decided to see Tunisia.

Our indignation knows no bounds! I do not even know where to start. . It can turn out chaotically, the darkness of emotions! ! I must say right away that we have repeatedly been to Turkey, Spain, etc. This year we wanted to visit Italy, but it didn’t work out with a visa, they spat, and decided to see Tunisia. “LOOKED!!! ” The hotel has 4 stars?? ? Ridiculous, why? ? Minus 4 here it will be more believable. In the photo, the hotel looks more or less normal, but in real life....
Arrived at night, they gave a temporary room for the night, some hefty, probably 6 people, the wind walks around the room, the old wooden window partitions do not close, so the noise was all night. There was no soap!! ! Well, we washed ourselves with the shampoo we brought, the impressions from the process of washing the face with shampoo are not pleasant !!
Guide- "Grand". They did not help in anything! We ourselves changed the room from the 1st floor to the 2nd, because on the first floor the ants just walk on foot, about mosquitoes and flies, cockroaches are a separate issue ! ! They repaired the condo themselves (for their own money!!?? ) - explaining to the repairman why it doesn’t get cold - NO FRION, because these condos are 100 years old!
Only after he saw the bill, he rammed a cylinder with freon and pumped it somewhere on the roof, apparently to the entire riser))) The condo worked, but only at around -16. Well, at least that's it.
ROOM - "cleaning" every day! (the bed is just made), towels of some color are either gray or brown, they didn’t understand. We bought towels in the store and rubbed them with them. We also bought all kinds of powders with rags to scrub off the room for 10 days of our stay in this HOOK. . k. one could not cope with the storm of mosquitoes!!! ! We sprayed some garbage from flies, cockroaches . . Stocked up with sprays from mosquitoes and flies for the body. Well, in general, this is your guide to what you need to take with you if SUDDENLY as we get sick and go to Tunisia. There is a yellow canvas curtain hanging in the room , which we immediately pushed back and hung up the sheets so as not to once again touch the never washed tarpaulin x....And later they did the right thing, by the end of our stay a HEAVY BEETLE fell out of it !! ! Almost the size of a lighter. (see photo) HORRIBLE!!!!!
The extra bed resembles a trestle bed for cutting fresh meat. (see photo)
FOOD - in principle, it was delicious, there was ordinary fish, turkey, lamb, beef, fruits, only watermelon, peaches were taken apart instantly. Breakfast is poor, scrambled eggs saved. The food, of course, is varied, but for some reason my 12-year-old son and I visited establishments "M" and "F" for distillations, 5 times a day. ! ! Maybe food, maybe water, but I still tend to unsanitary conditions !!!!! ! A local doctor sold us "Smekta", "Antispasm" for 400 rubles for ours, but did not change the situation. ALL THE WARE SHOULD BE CHECKED IN THE LIGHT, everything is stained, dirty FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The chairs in the dining room are all greasy, FUCK THE DARKNESS!!!!!!!!! ! Through the glass windows, because of the dirt, it is hard to see anything at all. The wooden highchair for babies absorbed so much dirt and grease that it was painful to look at the children sitting in them. (((The poor children are all bitten by a mosquito !!
POOL - sea water with bleach. Not big, a paddling pool for children - for some reason it is always muddy . .
BAR - I won’t describe for a long time that this is UPI, everything is diluted, in plastic glasses for Russians, and glass for the French.
SEA - all in algae! ! Jellyfish appeared, and we no longer let the child in there.
There was ANIMATION, but because of all the creeping and flying living creatures, it was problematic to watch it. Even without animation, we danced such pretzels every evening with our hands and feet to brush off insects that we ourselves looked like animators))))
In the evening, they generally tried not to go out, so as not to run into someone worse than insects. Pah-pah....
INTERNET-))))) Only at the reception. Young people, like chickens with roosters, sit on the steps that lead up to the rooms, so as not to fly off, caught with such difficulty WI-Fi))) Of course, at first we were shocked by such a picture, but then we got used to it (a person gets used to everything) and just became step over the poor hackers.
We visited the Medina (old city) - there is so much garbage and again MUD that Cherkizon seemed to us GUM. There is nothing to watch. We went to the zoo and rode camels. We watched the laser show. We didn't go to the Sahara.
We flew back (thank God to go home!! ) again at night, at the airport there was one duty-free and a thermonuclear burst (there was no air-conditioning stuffiness, the roofing felts did not work) ! ! We were offended in the end and did not buy anything there.
I read the review of a previous tourist and completely agree with him, but Tunisia may have been doing badly with the strikers since 2010. street cleaners, BUT gentlemen!! ! At home, hotels and territories adjacent to them, you can clean everything???!! ! In general, it seemed to us that they were satisfied with everything and did not care about tourists from Russia. Well then, kiss on the gums and continue with your French. Why open visa-free entry to Russians??
CONCLUSION - if you are extreme and do not care about dirt and insects, then you should look and compare Russia, Turkey, etc. I thought that Moscow was a dirty city, but I was deeply mistaken!!! ! Just for the sake of such a comparison, you can go there for a couple of days. NOT MORE!!! ! I was ready to kiss all of Domodedovo together with all our border guards!!!!!! ! LOVE YOU RUSSIA!!! ! WHAT YOU ARE CLEAN WITH US!!!!
See photo!! !

The hotel was attracted primarily by the price, because. we planned to meet 45-50 thousand for two and, of course, I wanted a 5 * hotel. In the travel agency "Unitours" we received a 7% discount as regular customers and met the price for this hotel. I wouldn't give the hotel a 5. There are pluses and minuses.

So from the pluses I can note a good buffet, no problems with accommodation at check-in. The service is good: they were placed quickly, they gave a good room without a tip, they helped to deliver the suitcase to the room. Animation is weak, almost none, very boring, especially if you are young tourists. Although there were large companies that entertained themselves. The hotel is difficult to find staff who would speak Russian. For example, we do not speak English, and we accordingly had a language barrier. The room is well furnished, but the bedding was yellow.

Firstly, I am writing a review for the first time because there has never been such a spoiled vacation and because everything about the hotel on the sites is embellished and a lot of lies. But I'll try to be objective, because there were a lot of positive things. We went from "Oasis" - I highly do not recommend it.

Firstly, I am writing a review for the first time because there has never been such a spoiled vacation and because everything about the hotel on the sites is embellished and a lot of lies. But I'll try to be objective, because there were a lot of positive things.
We went from "Oasis" - I highly do not recommend it. The attitude of the guides is disgusting. It would be better if they didn't exist at all. They brought us to the hotel and dropped us off on the road, the guide did not show us where and how!!! ! From the road they showed the direction where the hotel is, and then everything yourself. Having ordered an excursion to Tunisia and Carthage, we didn’t get in, because they simply didn’t pick us up - the guide forgot to inform the bus driver that we need to pick us up. The guide at the hotel Anya is just rude and a liar. There are no words about her and I will complain to the Oasis representative office.
We arrived at the airport not 6 km as described on the websites, but 50 minutes from the hotel, although the airport is new and clean.
It is indicated here that the hotel is 5 * but in fact 4 *, although it draws on 3 * with +. If they offer UALL ultra-inclusive, do not believe it, this hotel offers only ALL inclusive and nothing else. The indoor pool, which is so beautiful in the pictures, is actually PAID. The hotel is very old, which can be seen from the buildings and the territory, and in the pictures on the sites, the hotel appears to be depicted only after construction. At the same time, every day of their stay, they completed something and tried all the same to correct this and that. In general, the territory is not bad, quite large and well-groomed. The reception is beautifully lined with natural stone. The corridors are like labyrinths - many t are tangled - many signs are praised. The central pool is not bad renovated, warm and deep from 1m. up to 2.2m. , this pool is with salt water (there is no pool with fresh water). There is also a children's pool near it, also with sea water. There is a problem with sunbeds, beach workers stole other people's sunbeds for a dinar. I myself saw how people went for a swim or for lunch, and these depas collected things, put them on a chair and carried away the sunbed. True, after complaints from vacationers, more sunbeds were brought, although still not enough for the accepted number of vacationers. Despite the fact that not all rooms were full. We saw several rooms, bullshit bungalows, in the main building the rooms are different, you need to look at a few to choose. After much torment, we got a decent number after cosmetic repairs. In the first one there was no warm water, the air conditioner was turned on / off only with the help of a master called from the reception, there was no remote control from the TV, and the windows did not open, and the front door did not close. Safe at the reception for a deposit of 10 dinars. At the reception they always wave on the course, it is better to change it at the bank, it is an order of magnitude higher there.
The food is normal, once they even served pasta with seafood, if someone goes all the same, then sign up for an ala carte for Spanish cuisine, they serve seafood in the rest, everything is the same that basically only the waiters bring. The bar on the beach is nothing like the two in the central building. there are only local drinks - gin, whiskey, vodka - NATASHA and local Bukha. More menie only gin. At the same time, they pour it reluctantly with a wry look and demand that the dishes be brought back.
Pretty decent entertainment. Lots of animators. Volleyball, tennis, minigolf, aerobics, water polo and much more. We got on the day of the republic and even had fireworks and fire shows in general good.
The sea is beautiful - clean, very warm, sand. The disadvantage - algae and sometimes jellyfish - bite very unpleasantly.
We went from "Oasis" - I highly do not recommend it. The attitude of the guides is disgusting. It would be better if they didn't exist at all. They brought us to the hotel and dropped us off on the road, the guide did not show us where and how!!! ! From the road they showed the direction where the hotel is, and then everything yourself. Having ordered an excursion to Tunisia and Carthage, we didn’t get in, because they simply didn’t pick us up - the guide forgot to inform the bus driver that we need to pick us up. The guide at the hotel Anya is just rude and a liar. There are no words about her and I will complain to the Oasis representative office.

Hello.
Of course, I understand everything that children are not asked, but still I will write a poem.
I visited different places and hotels in my life, which is not so long, so far. seen everyone. but in Tunisia for the first time. I am 13 years old. Vacationing with parents.
I'll start from the very beginning.
chose this hotel. literally 1 day before our departure, new reviews appeared on the sites. they say the hotel is bad-construction.
Well, we had already chosen Prima Life Skanes, when we suddenly changed our minds and went here. Now I am happy that we went to this hotel. Of course, we were already mentally prepared for the fact that there would be a bad hotel and a bad feeder on the plane. but we did not think that the Tunisian company had so little money to feed the passengers. this is probably the only negative in everything. everyone who was not asked, Russians, of course, in the hotel, everyone was fed equally badly - two cakes. there was no tea and coffee. there was still plain water, sprite, cola and fanta. all.
We arrived at the hotel around 6 am.
disintegrated immediately. went to the beach and felt the stench coming from the sea. and gigantic heaps of algae with flies. but then we were told that there is a mini restaurant (all day they give pizza and all kinds of buns) where they give buns with tea in the morning. just from six in the morning. went there (everything is insanely close there) ate. almost immediately settled in the room. but they are populated like this: 3 people, 4 seats. room. 2 people-3 places. room. we were settled in a room on the second floor, which had three beds, but linen and towels were for two. asked to be relocated. everything was fine. lived on the third floor. (in no case do not settle on the first floor! there is always something wrong)
went to explore the area. as it turned out, there is one indoor pool on it (about which few people knew: ) we went there in the afternoon in the heat. because there is cool water) and one open. but it is with salt water!
I think it's terrible! Well, also next to a small one for children.
then we learned that the main restaurant is open from seven. We went for a full breakfast. Of course, the food is not something like in Turkey in Egypt or Greece, but it is of high quality. then we went to that stinky beach. there were no people at all. well, good. algae as it turned out at eight in the morning is taken away by an unfortunate horse, which everyone feeds with bread. (but one day there were so many algae that some idiot thought of filling them with sand) because of these algae there are a lot of flies. they don’t bite, but you must admit, it’s not very pleasant - you sit eating, and flies crawl and fly on you everywhere. and they are not getting rid of them. no way.
Well, about the sea ...algae are about a meter and a half in the water. further clean. but the water is just above the knee. but there is a grid through seven meters, for which you need to go. and it's absolutely awesome there. the sea is very warm! And by the way, this pier is really broken.
the first day we just walked and tried to find pluses in this hotel. because for mom, the main thing is the sea, and for dad, sports. (Which was basically normal)
then it turned out that there were only Russians on the beach! we all became friends there and were all together to the end. showers and toilets are on the beach.
we watched every day the same picture for all days: people come to a small ladder near the beach, look at the sea and go to the pool. these people are making a big mistake! where did you end up at? ! on the sea? or lying by the pool? and even more so by the pool you always get burned.
all the following days there was no smell of anything. Well, algae only if. in the first 4 days there were still jellyfish. who are sorry. mother was bitten 4 times. and me alone. it's not dangerous or painful. sometimes you may not even notice it. overlook.
there are few Russian children, though almost my age. but the French ...heaps!
animators are just...
I can't find words for how awesome they are! ! Everyone cried so much when we left! ! exchanged skype mails, etc....
it was very sad
They will be there next year too! Of these, by the way, only 4 speak English) the rest are in Arabic and French.
but that doesn't matter at all!
Our guide was really bad... Anna. she explained everything to us in such a way that right after all this, when she asked "do you have any more questions?... " I didn't even want to ask anything! ! it was so gross! !
one man asked why there is no animation in Russian. and she said: “Know what? We all actually learned languages at school! And these are not my problems anymore! If you didn’t study well at school! I’m an animator for you and I’ll tell you everything if you need something” (although she herself appeared there about 3 times a week. and then not always. )
a! the most important thing!
Be sure to take towels with you! they are not given out! even for money!
and from the room as we were told that it is impossible to take.
well, somehow it’s not very pleasant to walk with towels gray from the sand (although half of them took everything there); (and even more so on the last day when you leave and you will be evicted from the hotel at 12.00, you will have nowhere to put these white numbered towels) and we had to immediately go to the store. (There are two of them. Not big shopping centers. With reasonable prices. ) We bought two towels for 10 dinars.
By the way, no one figured out these dinars ...
in short, buy mugs for everyone in the "shopping centure" store. they are one and a half dinars. it's about 20 rubles.
disco until two in the morning! very good! with good music! And don't be afraid to let the kids go! don't pour! : DD
we were already pumping up for the second week and didn’t want to leave so much ...it’s just crazy.
I just dream of going to this hotel next year!
still went on a tour. zoo + dolphinarium + cartage land (attractions)
The zoo was insanely hot. dolphinarium as a dolphinarium. nothing special.
Well, it's all happening on the street. and in the amusement park there are only 5 normal carousels, and then, only more than 2 of them are normal. Well, you go there and ride as many times as you want. except for the first one. there you swim in a boat and around you is like the history of Tunisia.
but it was insanely tiring hot and long.
Sahara
acquaintances went there (with whom we became friends at the hotel) with two girls of my age. they said they liked it. but this tour is for 2 days! it's just to kill your strength and time on this desert! which is insanely hot!
the rest of the excursions, as we were told, are boring. especially the so-called "cruise". swim on a boat. and jump into the sea from it. You can only go there if you are in a big group. it will be more fun.
The room shows one Russian channel. first. moreover, there are no repetitive programs on it, as is usually the case on vacation in another country, but everything is as it should be.
we've come here and it's the same.
there is wi-fi at the reception! as soon as the first communication with the guide, find out the password from him! it's free!
on the way back they were fed a long bun with sausage, cheese and butter. ) they sold the same ones in duty free : )
soo. well, like everything. I hope my review will be at least a little useful when choosing a hotel)
I think you should go here! and please don't make mistakes! go to the sea! that this pool with singed "sea" water to sit? ! come to the sea, stay at the sea.
Have a nice holiday!
drive right now! here in August or even at the end of July!
for 14 days is very profitable! first] I week for the buildup, the second for the buzz! forward! to pack suitcases! I hope you don't regret it!

Hello. We flew in from Tunisia yesterday. Vacationing with a friend. Everything is just great. Everything is free, day and night. The food is very tasty, I especially liked their lamb and sweets. ANIMATION ABOVE ALL PRAISE. The guys did not let anyone get bored. All alcohol is free. Whiskey, cognac, gin, beer, wine, vodka.

Hello. We flew in from Tunisia yesterday. Vacationing with a friend. Everything is just great. Everything is free, day and night. The food is very tasty, I especially liked their lamb and sweets. ANIMATION ABOVE ALL PRAISE. The guys did not let anyone get bored. All alcohol is free. Whiskey, cognac, gin, beer, wine, vodka. By the way, their Tunisian vodka is called Natasha. They don't speak Russian at all, mostly French and poor English. They are all very polite, you will not hear a bad word from them. Well, vacationing foreigners do not like us too much. We had a case on vacation, our guy stuffed the face of a Frenchman. Towels were changed every day. Bedding somewhere once every 2 days. Sunbeds and mattresses are all free. We didn't pay for anything at the hotel. Learn a couple of words of their native language and they will be delighted. Aslama - hello, Bislema - bye. Thank you Shukran. I recommend this hotel to everyone.
