The hotel is a complex with a huge territory, where there are: the main building and 58 two-storey bungalows. We got a room on the first floor in the 46th house. A modest room without a balcony, but with everything you need for living: air conditioning, TV (with one Russian channel RTR-Planet), telephone, 2 beds, 2 bedside tables, a built-in wardrobe in the hallway, soap in the bath, towels: for feet, facial and bath . Looking ahead, I’ll say that we used the air conditioner only 2-3 hours a day, since we opened the window at night. The air conditioner was already with a remote control, a TV remote control for a deposit of 15 dinars, which are returned to you when you return the remote control. We leave things and go to have dinner, leave the house and go along the path: on the left and right everything is buried in greenery, flowers, everything is so beautiful and well-groomed!
We come to the restaurant, choose a table, negotiate with the “chef” of the waiters so that they reserve it for us every day for lunch and dinner, it “costs” us a tip of 1.5-3 dinars every day. We had breakfast on the veranda overlooking the sea. In general, the hotel has one large restaurant, one restaurant - a pizzeria, a Mauritanian cafe, and four bars. The food is very varied, something new every day, a variety of side dishes, vegetables, salads, several types of meat, poultry and fish. Every day, a separate table Italian cuisine, 2-3 types of spaghetti or pasta, pizza, ravioli, sometimes lasagna. Separately, I want to say about dessert: such a variety of all kinds of cakes, pastries, puddings, mousses - your eyes run wide, and everything is so delicious!!!!! ! From fruits they gave watermelons, peaches, apricots, plums, strawberries. From drinks for lunch and dinner, the waiters offered wines: red, rose and white, as well as soft drinks: cola, fanta, sprite, mineral water with and without soda. Accordingly, for a tip, you always had a glass full.
In general, the feeling of round-the-clock feeding, the restaurant opens at 5 am and is open until 9 pm. Then you can eat at the pizzeria until 24:00. Those. if something is closed, then the next restaurant or bar immediately opens. The bars offer the following non-alcoholic drinks: cola, fanta, sprite, black coffee, cappuccino, tea, 2 types of "juice" (in quotation marks because they are not freshly squeezed, but ordinary diluted), mineral water. Of the alcoholic drinks, they offered: beer, red, rose, white wine, liquor, Bukha vodka, Natakha vodka and Muscat, respectively, all locally produced. Popular among Russians were cocktails consisting of the following components: vodka, nutmeg, 2 types of juice and a drop of pomegranate syrup (then the cocktail turned out red-yellow) or mint (then the cocktail turned out yellow-green). The Mauritanian cafe also offers Turkish coffee and mint tea.

The territory of the hotel is very large, in addition to the main building and bungalows, there are also tennis courts, mini golf course, 2 swimming pools, 1 children's pool, kids club and playground, TV room, video games, shops, hairdresser, car rental, night club (disco), summer theatre. In the summer theater, animation takes place every evening, first for children, then for adults - in the 2 weeks that we were there, there was never a repetition of the adult program, always something new and interesting. The facilitator tries to speak several languages ​ ​ at once, i. е. he says a phrase in French and immediately translates it into German, English, Italian and Russian, since the Russian vocabulary of the staff is still limited, sometimes he misses something. In general, most of the animation took place in the form of performances, dances or some kind of competition, but if you at least know school English, then you will understand everything. As a rule, evening animation ended at 11 pm, and a disco in a nightclub immediately opened, which worked until 3 am, drinks are all free.
From the daytime entertainment there were the following: tennis and table tennis, volleyball, aerobics, water aerobics, football, water polo, windsurfing, catamarans, sailing boats, mini-golf, and all sorts of games and competitions. All attributes for sports (rackets, clubs, balls, etc. ) can be obtained with a deposit of 10 DT in the animation room next to the pizzeria, as soon as you return what you took, the money will be returned to you. You can also borrow board games there. To ride a catamaran, sail boat or windsurf, you need to sign up the day before on the beach with the animators, all for free.
The staff speaks French, German and English, there are 2 Russian-speaking girls at the reception who work in shifts. But almost everyone willingly repeats Russian words in order to learn Russian in the future. In general, the staff are all very friendly. The main contingent of the hotel are Germans and French, there are also Italians, Belgians, Swiss, British, Russians and one family was from Cameroon.
Sun beds and umbrellas on the beach and by the pool are free, only mattresses by the pool are paid (there are none on the beach at all), there are no beach towels at all (you need to take it with you), so a few of our compatriots who hoped that the hotel had beach towels of their own they didn’t take them, as a result they took towels from the room to the beach, where they were safely taken away by hotel workers.
