Rested from August 19 to September 1.2011. We had a group of 6 people. On the first evening, swimming in the pool, we were wildly delighted with a couple from Yaroslavl, they reported that for 10 days they had not heard Slavic speech at all in the hotel. A few days later, the Slavs were added. Yes, it's strange that foreigners start taking places by the pool from 6 in the morning and we had to get involved in this schedule. Although there were always places by the pool away from the bar, there were always free sunbeds on the sea.
1. The sea is warm, gentle, changeable. In the morning, complete calm by lunchtime, there could be waves. The beach is large and clean. For a camel that works as a model for photos and rides, they clean it right away. The sea is shallow, the depth starts behind 3 buoys sometimes brought algae, but this is not fatal. Masks and fins are not required! There is nothing to watch, although my husband saw a stingray one evening.
2. The pool is huge, no one in it stepped on each other's heels. They clean every day, in the evening they run a robot vacuum cleaner.

3. The rooms are large, with good furniture and appliances. We were cleaned normally, not every day they left a dinar. The linen was changed 4 times in 12 days.
The children once forgot to clean the room, the son went to the reception, the manager rushed with the cleaning lady and controlled the cleaning himself and apologized.
4. Internet at the reception, but in our room 390 and in the children 392, WIFI also worked in the room.
5. Nutrition. I don’t know who writes that there were no fresh juices, probably I should have opened my eyes and looked where they make pizza at lunch and in the evening in the morning they make orange juices and mixes. Fish, turkey, chicken, pork, beef were all on the menu. Several evenings we had seafood: unlimited shrimp, squid, octopus. No one was left hungry and there were dishes for every taste. Locally produced drinks differ in taste from what we are used to, but this is not news for everyone.
We tried Sedratin - tincture on dates 40 degrees - I recommend it.
The food is excellent and I don’t understand the complaints that it is monotonous, are you also served 15 dishes at home to choose from?
5. In the evenings you can walk to the center of Yasmin. Exit the hotel, go left, after 7 minutes there are two streets that you can go around in a circle and return to the hotel through the port. Buy all sorts of souvenirs. There is no shopping there.
6. The guide sent us to the Talaso Hotel Mahadi, a talaso was opened there not so long ago, the hostess is a Muscovite, the manager too, i. e. there are no language problems. All procedures are done by Tunisians and Tunisians. There were no molestations, as in other talas from masseurs. We were satisfied with the procedures, they took a course for 4 days, which turned into 6 days for us.
7. The only thing worth bringing from Tunisia is cosmetics. APHRODITE shop in Hammamet opposite the Royal Azur hotel.
The seller Irina will tell you everything, she won’t load. We are satisfied with the cosmetics - we have already tried it.

8. Excursion to the Sahara - definitely a must go. Thanks to our guide Tatyana from Cartajplus. She is a professional and charming woman who led the tour from the heart and made it unforgettable.
Tatyana told us that Russian embassy workers stop at Marco Polo when they have a rest, which speaks for itself!!!
Animation does not bother itself, do not expect such concerts as in Turkey. But who wants to participate in entertainment, they are just the same every day.
From the rest there were positive emotions and from the hotel too.
