TOUR OPERATOR
We were traveling with the Pegasus company. They most often came across adequate prices (monitored for two months) and there were no additional "extortions". We were met, quickly (30 minutes somewhere) taken to the hotel, at the “rally” they didn’t strain us much, although, of course, they “pushed” commercially profitable shopping trips, from which they have a percentage. Other tourists said that there is a hotel group in VK, where there were many complaints about Olesya (the hotel guide). She once helped us (more on that below) to solve a difficult (or rather idiotic) situation and was the only representative of the tour operator whom we saw at the hotel every day (and there are four Russians in this hotel - Pegasus, Coral, Anex and someone so insignificant that I forgot).
God grant that you do not need the help of a tour operator, but it is better to have his representative on hand (in this hotel - 100%).
TOURS. We were only on SUPER TUNISIA, and there was nothing to see there:
1) a hundred-meter mini-market of the "capital" with "correct" prices at least 2 times higher than in a store near the hotel;
2) a mosaic museum, where a guide who speaks poorly in Russian will retell you the plot of Homer's Odyssey in the style of Kolobok;
3) lunch in a small five-star hotel, where the food is better than in your big four-star hotel;
4) the Tunisian "Santorini" of two huts, which greatly amused us, who saw the Greek and lived in the Egyptian;
5) three stones and one phallic symbol left from the Carthaginian bath No. 1.
There was neither desire nor strength for a two-day excursion to the desert.
Of the shortcomings - the next point.
AIRLINE
"Northern wind" or NORDWIND
Firstly, it will leave you without breakfast / lunch / dinner if you fly to Tunisia from Moscow.
Secondly, from drinks they will offer only water, but unlimited, which is a plus!
Thirdly, it registers “from the tail” of the aircraft, so the best places will fall to all lifelong “latecomers” and non-residents (like us)!
Fourthly, he sells seats in the aisles and at the exits for "green".
Of the pluses: the greedy we in both directions received absolutely free of charge the places described in paragraph 4, because the greedy ones did not buy them all! Conclusion: reduce prices, gentlemen, air carriers!
HOTEL
“I love to have fun, and especially to eat! "- one of our friends used to say. In this hotel, she would not die of hunger, but she could well go crazy from boredom. But in order...
As for FOOD: food seems to be there, but it seems to be not there. For breakfast, you will be offered an omelette and / or (not always) scrambled eggs, croissants and all sorts of rolls (unlimited), sausages (my sister said - soy), cereal (or crushed to?
version), yoghurt (or sour milk tinted white/pink), jams, some vegetables, pancakes, donuts, muffins, sometimes halva...I don't remember anything else because they didn't eat it. Pancakes and egg dishes were popular with the people, and “kilometer-long” queues lined up behind them. Coffee in the main restaurant could only be drunk during breakfast if you had enough cup.
Here's what's interesting: we were told that at the end of September (and this is almost the “final” of the season) there were 1000 guests in the hotel, and no more than a hundred cups were taken out to the restaurant, the same number of plates. And for every (except breakfast) meal, the restaurant was opened 10-15 minutes later than the stated time, so a decent crowd managed to gather at the entrance, which (not being guilty of that) looked like a herd. I can imagine what happened in July! About serving, dirty dishes and garbage on the tables - I am silent. The Egyptians, in comparison with the Tunisians, are pedantic cleaners!
As for lunch/dinner: its main problem is the main course! You'll find side dishes (pasta, rice, and powdered puré e), salads (mostly cabbages of all kinds), crappy tomatoes and tasteless cucumbers, standard sauces, lots of boiled vegetables, unlimited olives and black olives (which is a definite plus for lovers like me). But you will almost never find edible meat or fish! They exist, but they cannot be eaten. The meat is all rubber, the fish is tasteless, at the sight of the chicken we asked: “What holiday is today? » Half of our friends had problems with their teeth and gastrointestinal tract. Guests with children complained that they (especially babies) did not eat anything and showed indigestion (vomiting, diarrhea). For children, the hotel only has a mini-water park. No food, no entertainment.
But at least the kids did not understand what humiliations their parents and other uncles and aunts had to go through in order to get something edible for themselves.
Quest is the right word! People stand in huge queues for a small piece of meat, there can be no question of an additive to take for two (companies in flight), you still need to persuade. With all this, in front of your eyes, without a queue, a huge (most-most) piece will be laid not even by the Tunisians themselves (of whom there are three cripples, and then on a day off), but by their neighbors - the “Parisians” from Algeria (yeah, and we are queens Victoria and Elizabeth of England). From the European contingent - 10 British, 10 French, 10 Germans (including a drunken granny with a bump on her forehead, who was especially indignant at the small container in the bar) and Mr. Hotel. There were also: a couple of Belarusians and 900 Russians, including five citizens who identified themselves as persons of Tatar nationality.
Especially it should be noted TARA in bars - these are glasses of 150-200 ml, of which you can get no more than 2 pcs. alcohol + 2 pcs. bezalki in one hand.
Of course, we are not proud ...we will come two or five times ...And you stand at the tap for 14 hours without a break ...Well, something like this. But what the heck!! ! This is wildly humiliating!! ! Healthy adequate men are forced to beg for a normal portion of alcohol in a bar, as if they were some kind of drunkards. And all this under the vile jokes of the bartenders.
It is strictly forbidden to take food out of the restaurant! You can’t openly ...Even an apple, if you don’t defiantly eat it on the go. This is, of course, game. But the strictness of the law, as they say, is more than compensated… What to do if you are already inside!?
A la carte is a waste of time. There is the same crap, but in smaller quantities.
Desserts and fruits. Who cares, but we just had enough. Personally, I didn't need anything other than melon. The sister was content with watermelon, apples, plums and twice with grapes.
ENTERTAINMENT, as it were.
“Like” is the best friend of our “hotelier”: like four stars, like all inclusive ...In the restaurant twice a week, a saxophonist performs five compositions, twice a local uncle sings to the accompaniment of a synthesizer, Latin American music sounds in the pool bar in the evening, which the bartender thinks Russian. During the day, Chicks do yoga and aqua aerobics, teenage girls fall in love with animators, older girls fall in love with "Parisians", forty-year-old "grandmothers" like us ...suffer from boredom. At 21:30, the kids dance their five dances cutely, then everyone watches vulgar tricks and forty-year-old “grandmothers” like us dance their five dances cutely. At 23:00, the camp announces a retreat.
There is also a water park, as it were, but it works for four hours, there are not enough cheesecakes for everyone even in October, even on a weekday, so we rolled up a couple of times and left this business to the “youth” and “Parisians”.
WiFi is free as well. In the lobby.
But in fact there is no Internet, especially when literally a hundred people gather there. A local sim card can be a way out of the situation. But there are few gigs on it, so the output is also “sort of”.
The TERRITORY, in fact, is small, mediocrely cleaned. We paid attention to cleaning. And that's not good! We sunbathed near the pool, which was being cleaned at that moment. Tourists who have vacationed in Turkey, for example, will understand what I mean - they do it so early there that you come "with everything ready. " Even after the hellish storm! And in Thalassa, after an average thunderstorm, there was a srach for three days!
On the territory of the hotel there are a couple of shops with quite reasonable prices, which can be lowered below the neighboring "fixes". The "elephants" (a kilometer to the left of the hotel) have a couple of shops, cheaper and richer in choice - the left one. We had a good conversation with the owner's daughter and got a 10% discount - a trifle, but nice. And so - on the way to the elephants there are three more shops. The taste and color, as they say ...
We had a VOUCHER ROOM in the main building, but at the time of check-in there were no free rooms, and we were sent to bungalow 131. We were so tired that we did not argue and did not unpack our suitcase until morning, hoping to leave this dirty place with ancient polished (once) furniture. The next day, we (on request, free of charge) were provided with an option in the building to the left of the entrance in front of the lobby from the street side, first floor, room 2001. Normal room, but 1.5 times smaller with a high balcony and a view of the "pit". We stayed in a bungalow. And our adventures began!
SERVICE. We stayed in the bungalow and found that our toilet was leaking. We turned to the "receptionist" Med. Silence. Contacted again. On that day, we remembered the review about the staff who visits the rooms strictly when you are inside. The master came when I was in the shower. And he did not come half an hour later, as I asked him.
In the evening, Olesya translated our complaints to another "receptionist" and agreed on the repair and cleaning of the room. The dissatisfied "spotted" manager received a "bream", however, we saw the master and cleaning only a day later, when I caught the "spotted" one on the territory, which I now knew by sight. My sister joked that my "Help me please" gave her convulsions. However, it ended up helping us a lot. There has been a series of thefts at the hotel.
Perfume was stolen from our friends and three neighboring rooms. A safe with money and documents was taken from a family’s room, they were urgently asked to leave, and their tour operator did not help them in any way. However, I digress. Remember "spotted"? She broke into our room twice at a time when we were not usually there. And we decided to use the old way to determine if someone entered through the door, which hangs a sign "Do Not Disturb".
They would put it on “stop” for the season and watch the miraculous transformation of a terrible caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly.
SAFETY can be described by three facts:
1. in 10 days at the hotel, we saw the beach "patrol" twice
2. hotel security - unarmed guys who are engaged in "cleaning" the beach and repairing umbrellas
3. on the day of the tour at 6:30 in the morning, only a "receptionist" and a lone unarmed security guard were found in the hotel, who brought us 10 yesterday's croissants for an "early breakfast"
That's why it's important! With us on the tour were people from the hotel, in which (after they landed in the evening the guide told us) there was a terrorist attack several years ago, a man shot tourists on the beach. On that day, all the cameras were turned off, no one was found, the hotel operates under a new name.
SUMMARY
We tanned and even got a little better. Will we come again? No. On vacation, we like to relax. There is enough tension and stress at home.

We arrived at the hotel at 6 am. At 7 we went to breakfast. About ten asked for check-in, $ 10 solved the issue, as there was a hint from the manager. We were given the keys to the bungalow, number 619 (almost at the very end of the territory). Pros: the territory is huge, green. The sea is excellent, warm and clean.

Pros: the territory is huge, green. The sea is excellent, warm and clean. Water park and pools.
Cons: 90% of the Arabs (families have a rest), queues for all the main dishes, there are not enough dishes, the alcohol in the bars is disgusting. The staff is not up to the task, but they are trying.

Not a foot in Thalassa Sousse. I bought a ticket on the advice of a travel agent, at first they bought it, and then they just started reading reviews, called the travel agent and decided to ask if it was worth changing this hotel, to which he assured us that it was fun there and there would be no problems, tk. there, according to him, about 10 people rested and not a single complaint. After that, I found a group and started reading reviews every day in order to more or less understand the picture of everything and every negative review was answered every day *id476683473 this person convinces people that we find fault. According to his reviews, I did not calm down a lot. I decided that Russian people, as always, can exaggerate the whole real situation.
First day. Check-in at the hotel: We are 5 people, we need two rooms for accommodation. We told the man at the reception that we would like to have rooms nearby and are ready to resolve this issue (meaning in terms of money), but the man boorishly said that the rooms will be nearby at your house, but here they settle as they are, we would of course give he was 20$, but after such an appeal, we decided not to give him anything and leave everything as it is. In the end, we were settled on the first and second floors.
The second quest is food in the dining room. Huge queues and all the photos that are thrown in different groups are justified. It's a shame when someone writes that they are the most hungry. There are no starving people there, it's just that the hotel cannot correctly distribute all the vacationers according to the halls and time. It turns out that because of the large flow of people, no one even checks who and what time is coming, the people bring down everyone. Very often the dining room is closed even after the stated opening time. (about disgusting food and a fight for plates, I will omit so as not to waste time reading)
The third quest is housekeeping: The tip that we left (about 5 dinars) was taken, but the room was not cleaned. For all 10 days that we were, we rubbed the floor 2 times and then it was disgusting and put 1 time 2 vials of shampoos.
But after 3 days, we began to adapt to this disgusting and began to relax more or less.
On the 9th day, a huge surprise awaited us - we were robbed, although we read about these thefts. We lost our vigilance due to the fact that we left the equipment in the room and nothing was missing.
Our money was in a suitcase, a small padlock hung from the eyelets. There was a bag in the suitcase, in which the wallet and there were dollars and rubles, although at the entrance to this country they explained to us that Russian money cannot be changed. They took exactly 50% of rubles and 50% of dollars, hoping that we would not pay attention, but we calculated everything and knew how much we spend every day. Moreover, I note that on different floors there were different cleaners who cleaned at different times. They unzipped our suitcases, and then carefully fastened them with a slider, but it was clear at the top that the zipper did not converge. Our numbers are 3018.3029 so that at least a little you understand our accommodation. I started to panic, after which we decided to contact the receptionist, to which he waved his hand, no safe - no complaints. We decided to turn to our guide - Olesya (we were resting from Pegasus), to which she said that she warned about the need to take a safe, then explained that no one would solve our issue, she asked us not to shout at our indignation. We demanded to call the police, I decided that they would call some fake policemen.
I asked my son to call the police myself. he understands a little in English + a translator on the phone. The police number, if anything, is 197. He was told that there were no translators from Arabic into English and Russian, and they did not understand what had happened. We decided to wait for those who called the guide. After some time, 2 unknown people arrived in civilian clothes without weapons and documents. They explained something to them in Arabic. The hotel representative asked us if there was a cleaning lady today. Upon learning that the room had not been cleaned, the "policemen" left. When we asked why they left, we were told that if there was no cleaning lady, then it was not her. We all began to make claims to the guide on emotions. We didn't get applications. The guide said that if you want, go to the police and write a statement yourself. We did not calm down and demanded to go with us. the guide's job includes escorting to the hospital and the police, but she said that she would not go because. does not understand Arabic.
I will not write about the road to the police. At the police we were met by a rather pleasant man, he said that thefts constantly occur in your hotel. Then they began to ignore us, they did not approach us for 4 hours, they waited for our patience to run out and we would leave. When asked about the toilet, they said that there was none (the central police department of the city). After a while, they called us anyway, and put us in some small room, where everything was dirty and there were a lot of cigarette butts on the floor, the detainee was sitting on the right. When the policeman deigned to come, they took evidence from us, without providing a copy, saying that everyone would be sorted out only after the weekend. When asked why no one came to the call, they replied that they only come to kill.
All these thefts are planned according to the following scheme:
1. The cleaner checks the amount of money in the room.
2. Makes notes on the door jambs, how much money someone has in the room (if you don’t believe it, then after leaving the reception, turn right and after turning to the sea, go to the floors and look).
3. All vacation you are pursued by representatives of the hotel, walking on the heels, finding out the time at which you are absent.
4. Theft occurs on the eve of departure, due to lack of time for disassembly, at a time when you are not in the room.
The camera, respectively, on the day of the theft was turned to the floor, although I noticed that I was looking at the entrance when checking in
Be careful and careful, carry money with you and do not disdain it, no safes other than yourself will save your money, because. they also hide safes, no one will return the money without an agreement. They shrug their shoulders and say that we are lying and no one could take money except us. I know that there will be a lot of denials from fakes, etc. We do not force anyone to anything, just do not step on the same rake.
First day. Check-in at the hotel: We are 5 people, we need two rooms for accommodation. We told the man at the reception that we would like to have rooms nearby and are ready to resolve this issue (meaning in terms of money), but the man boorishly said that the rooms will be nearby at your house, but here they settle as they are, we would of course give he was 20$, but after such an appeal, we decided not to give him anything and leave everything as it is. In the end, we were settled on the first and second floors.
The second quest is food in the dining room. Huge queues and all the photos that are thrown in different groups are justified. It's a shame when someone writes that they are the most hungry. There are no starving people there, it's just that the hotel cannot correctly distribute all the vacationers according to the halls and time. It turns out that because of the large flow of people, no one even checks who and what time is coming, the people bring down everyone. Very often the dining room is closed even after the stated opening time. (about disgusting food and a fight for plates, I will omit so as not to waste time reading)
The third quest is housekeeping: The tip that we left (about 5 dinars) was taken, but the room was not cleaned. For all 10 days that we were, we rubbed the floor 2 times and then it was disgusting and put 1 time 2 vials of shampoos.
But after 3 days, we began to adapt to this disgusting and began to relax more or less.
On the 9th day, a huge surprise awaited us - we were robbed, although we read about these thefts. We lost our vigilance due to the fact that we left the equipment in the room and nothing was missing.
Our money was in a suitcase, a small padlock hung from the eyelets. There was a bag in the suitcase, in which the wallet and there were dollars and rubles, although at the entrance to this country they explained to us that Russian money cannot be changed. They took exactly 50% of rubles and 50% of dollars, hoping that we would not pay attention, but we calculated everything and knew how much we spend every day. Moreover, I note that on different floors there were different cleaners who cleaned at different times. They unzipped our suitcases, and then carefully fastened them with a slider, but it was clear at the top that the zipper did not converge. Our numbers are 3018.3029 so that at least a little you understand our accommodation. I started to panic, after which we decided to contact the receptionist, to which he waved his hand, no safe - no complaints. We decided to turn to our guide - Olesya (we were resting from Pegasus), to which she said that she warned about the need to take a safe, then explained that no one would solve our issue, she asked us not to shout at our indignation. We demanded to call the police, I decided that they would call some fake policemen.
I asked my son to call the police myself. he understands a little in English + a translator on the phone. The police number, if anything, is 197. He was told that there were no translators from Arabic into English and Russian, and they did not understand what had happened. We decided to wait for those who called the guide. After some time, 2 unknown people arrived in civilian clothes without weapons and documents. They explained something to them in Arabic. The hotel representative asked us if there was a cleaning lady today. Upon learning that the room had not been cleaned, the "policemen" left. When we asked why they left, we were told that if there was no cleaning lady, then it was not her. We all began to make claims to the guide on emotions. We didn't get applications. The guide said that if you want, go to the police and write a statement yourself. We did not calm down and demanded to go with us. the guide's job includes escorting to the hospital and the police, but she said that she would not go because. does not understand Arabic.
I will not write about the road to the police. At the police we were met by a rather pleasant man, he said that thefts constantly occur in your hotel. Then they began to ignore us, they did not approach us for 4 hours, they waited for our patience to run out and we would leave. When asked about the toilet, they said that there was none (the central police department of the city). After a while, they called us anyway, and put us in some small room, where everything was dirty and there were a lot of cigarette butts on the floor, the detainee was sitting on the right. When the policeman deigned to come, they took evidence from us, without providing a copy, saying that everyone would be sorted out only after the weekend. When asked why no one came to the call, they replied that they only come to kill.
All these thefts are planned according to the following scheme:
1. The cleaner checks the amount of money in the room.
2. Makes notes on the door jambs, how much money someone has in the room (if you don’t believe it, then after leaving the reception, turn right and after turning to the sea, go to the floors and look).

Hotel g. . no. Dirty dishes. Refrigerator and safe are paid. Water is issued by coupons (1 bottle per day) for a family of 5 people. The air conditioner works according to one Arabs known schedule. At the reception sits a toad named Victoria (guest relay), who only knows how to be rude. The staff is rude. You won’t get through to the reception, and when you come with a complaint, they offer to complain to the guide and do nothing to help.

For 5 people 1 towel. We got to Gen. manager and only then they brought 3 more. The aqua park is crap (slides work in turn). I don't recommend anyone to go here.

In a word, hostel. Antique furniture is simply painted with a single-color paint in anticipation of the season, which has not dried up to this day and has a characteristic smell. Furniture: bed, 2 bedside tables/stools on the sides of the bed, TV table. The plaster of the room is like in a solid pig shed, slightly swollen in places, slightly chipped in places.

In a word, hostel. Antique furniture is simply painted with a single-color paint in anticipation of the season, which has not dried up to this day and has a characteristic smell. Furniture: bed, 2 bedside tables/stools on the sides of the bed, TV table. The plaster of the room is like in a solid pig shed, slightly swollen in places, slightly chipped in places. I had a bathroom like in Goa in 3 *, a toilet like in 2 * in Goa. Balcony or terrace, normally 4 * pulls. Sunbeds on the sea, mattresses, the beach itself and the sea, water park, swimming pools, super! don't hold back! for 4+. Next is the most important thing, all inclusive. In fact, this is a meal plan in the format of breakfast, lunch and dinner + alcohol throughout the day. It's hard to call it food. Why, I'll explain. In principle, there is plenty of food, but 80% of it is all smelly, spoiled, sour and simply rotten. You have to choose from 20% normally for the freshness of the food. And these are: sweets, melon, grapes, plums, all kinds of green salads, vegetables, different pasta, bread, soups, and sausages and cheeses. Sometimes they gave grilled chicken but in short supply, those who did not have time were late. And what about 80% of the entrusted is: a couple of types of stew, minced meat, fish! crabs! all kinds of chicken wings there, it’s not clear whose meat, like dog or rat meat tastes (I don’t know what dog and rat meat tastes like, but to make it more clear what I’m talking about) all of the above stinks if you smell it !! ! It stinks not very fresh, there are a lot of crabs, but they just smell like in a public toilet of a railway station. + It's all cold!!! ! There is nothing hot!! ! At first I ate meat without fear until I came across a rotten, rotten piece that tasted like dead meat, rot. . . Which I chewed...... ((((After that, no meat. Now the whole canteen, everything is gloomy, dirty, everything is very, very deplorable ((((Next booze. normal liquor, so we bought everything in the generale just so as not to spoil our health. Strong alcohol seems to be normal. There is no food on the beach except beer, and in general there is no food anywhere for breakfast, lunch, dinner. Sometimes they give a shot like pizza, but I did not understand when, where and how much. In short, really, Tunisia has died financially and touristically, and it seems to me that food is already everywhere here. Perhaps in some hotels, due to the quality equipment that was originally installed even before this decline in Tunisia, everything is fine in terms of rooms, but in terms of food, I doubt that it is much worse here than in other hotels. This is the infrastructure of the tour business. If you choose where to go, don’t go to Tunisia, but if you still don’t change your mind and want to go here, take the cheapest hotel, because there is a complete pzdts everywhere

We are not picky and, in order not to spoil our vacation, we did not pay much attention to the service. BUT I agree with the rest of the reviews. This is the first time we have come across this kind of service. The worst thing is the dining room: whoever had time, he ate. there is always a shortage of dishes.

This is the first time we have come across this kind of service. The worst thing is the dining room: whoever had time, he ate. there is always a shortage of dishes. In general, they don’t know how to cook, like dumping them on trays for pigs. There are restaurants, but there is a queue from 8 in the morning to sign up. (I came to rest, not to stand in line). There are not enough cheesecakes on the water slides. You won’t ride much. I drove down the hill - the cheesecake was taken away by those who monitor safety on the hills. In the bar, people bought their glasses, went with theirs. Terrible sanitation, flies, flies, flies, there are just darkness, how many of them. So that I again in Tunisia - never. We also went for one massage session to the salon at the hotel - it feels like they just called the chef from the kitchen, it's terrible. In the exchanger at the reception constantly do not add dinars. Animation is, mostly for children, in the evening. And in the afternoon for adults, water polo, aqua aerobics. The animators did their best. But this does not cover the entire impression of the hotel.

They rejoiced only at the sea. The rooms are dirty. They clean every day, but for some reason they don’t wash anything except the floor. The walls are all in the corpses of dead insects. In the bathroom, all old shabby plumbing works on its last legs. Air conditioning in the room is generally a separate story: the air is taken from the sewer riser, so when the air conditioner is on, the room stinks terribly and it is difficult to stay there.

They rejoiced only at the sea. The rooms are dirty. They clean every day, but for some reason they don’t wash anything except the floor. The walls are all in the corpses of dead insects. In the bathroom, all old shabby plumbing works on its last legs. Air conditioning in the room is generally a separate story: the air is taken from the sewer riser, so when the air conditioner is on, the room stinks terribly and it is difficult to stay there. Therefore, we slept with an open balcony and listened to music until 2 am. The area is clean and well maintained. The beach is tolerable, there are a lot of gobies in the sand, but they themselves are to blame for this: don’t give a shit. The beach has never been cleaned. Half of the sunbeds are broken. And now the most important thing: the "dining room", reminiscent of a chip in the 80s of the last century, dirty shabby chairs, gray tablecloths, dirty battered dishes. Napkins only paper: one per person. The staff walks like they're in their pants. They do not react at all to claims from vacationers: eat what they give. Of course, you will not remain hungry, but for 3 days the device with beer did not work, and then the sprite with cola was also blown away - there is only one alternative: water from the cooler (warm). I don’t advise you to drink wine: there was no such filthy diluted chatter even under Gorbachev in the USSR. Whiskey degrees that way 18 well 20 on the strength with the taste of oak crusts. There are not enough spices on the tables for everyone, so I had to share salt with my neighbors because the food is not salty. Pizza in a chip is a piece of dough smeared with ketchup and sprinkled with something like cheese. At the distribution in the canteen, more than two pieces are not allowed on the nose, when asked to put more, they openly send where Makar did not drive calves. And so we go further, a bar on the beach: the work of this institution MUST begin at 10.00, people come by this time WITH THEIR GLASSES bought in nearby stores, because beer is served in disposable washed glasses, which are designed for 100 grams . The grief bartender usually comes to his place of work 20 minutes later, because of this, a queue of 30 people is created that way from wildly indignant people. Pours 2 glasses of warm beer into hands. In short: if you want to eat and relax a little, you need to go to the General, which is next to the Medina of the city of Sousse and buy in full. Animation for adults is not very good, although the guys are trying, but with the kids they are doing it to the fullest. And here again, there are a lot of children in the hotel, and there is practically no children's menu: only cereal with diluted milk for breakfast. For the first time in my life I had such a bad rest, which I do not wish you in any case. Blacklist this hotel for yourself.

We flew from Kazan, took a ticket in Larcon, through HeliTour, met Pegasus. Described as a good hotel.
I wrote this review while staying in this hotel room. Given the 4-*, they knew where they were going.
So. . .
Tour operator "Pegasus" - in comparison with others: the guide is responsive, polite. Operator service - such as, for example, providing buses for an excursion... , unlike other tour operators, the Pegasus bus was always late for 15 - 20 minutes... , apparently, it depends on how the guides organize the collection of people from hotels. The buses themselves are ancient, shabby... but they drive and the air conditioner works.
Sea - good score, gentle entrance, sand, sunbeds with mattresses for free (own towels), self-made umbrellas, straw; the beach is cleaned of large debris, small rakes are raked into the water; the water is mostly always clean, two times unnatural garbage was applied to the water, since, apparently, six or seven dry cargo ships were “parked” on the horizon on the roadstead, garbage was probably dumped from them; there is algae near the shore, two or three meters further clean. From entertaining on the beach-banana, pills, catamaran, parachute. In the photo of all travel agencies, the coastline is not correctly indicated, in fact, the beach strip is twice as narrow.
The territory of the hotel is good. Awesome pools, a large water park with a bunch of slides. Many people, including children, get injured, I saw quite serious two times young children with good head cuts (most likely, there were stitches), two adults with broken arms (forearms), pulled a back muscle myself, so watch the children themselves, the staff - young Arabs, they don't give a damn about everything.
Rooms - met exactly what we expected: Arabic service (same as in an Egyptian five star hotel). The room is cleaned according to the “so-so” principle, they left 1 dinar for tea, then they stopped (why, I will describe later). The number itself is like a regular number.
Dining room: the common dining room is dirty, dirty tables, dirty waiters, dirty dishes. Therefore, we went to the so-called “Italian restaurant” on the basement floor of the main building (for some reason everyone is bursting into a common dining room), in the “Italian restaurant” there is the same buffet, the choice is slightly less, but cleaner and there is a conder.
Negative:
Near the pool, from a sun lounger, they stole a towel, most likely confused by mistake, but oh well, the damage amounted to 300 rubles...
Well, the most disgusting thing: 200 dollars were stolen from the safe in the room. From the safe! Therefore, money poke anywhere, but not in a safe. The showdown did not lead to anything, everyone doesn’t give a damn, and it’s unproven. Most likely, a mutual guarantee works - the reception gives information about who books the safe, who changes how many bucks, the safe, one hell, has a universal code, and the room service steals. And they didn’t take everything, but only 200, so that the client would not immediately notice.
I attribute this incident to my gouging, I relaxed. Well, as they say, thank God for taking the money.

I will say right away - I am not one of those tourists who travels to "beach" countries in order to look for flaws in hotels and then vilify them for what the world is worth. before that, I vacationed with two children (now they are 12 years old) 1 time in Egypt (the Ali Baba hotel is a complete delight); 3 times in Turkey (twice - normal, the third - in the hotel "Sapphire" - an indescribable experience) and 1 time in Tunisia (normal - "four" as "four").

" however, on the day of arrival, we realized that we had "hit". mobile communications - only through Tunisian operators - do not work either "zero without borders" or "good line" that I used on previous trips. other tourists tried to use the Internet - they put money in, and immediately "the account is zero"! with whom to ask - is unknown. hotel guides ("Pegasus") work disgustingly, answer all questions; "What do you want - the end of the season. " and what - at the end of the season do not people come? or we came for 10% of the cost? the all-inclusive system turned out to be the all-off system here. for breakfast - vegetables from the previous dinner, porridge with sour milk, oranges as if they had begun to rot somewhere at the base, and they were laid out for tourists so as not to be thrown away. Lunch and dinner are better though. the dining room itself - one cannot call it a restaurant - resembles a "soviet" canteen to some backwater: broken cabinet chairs; upholstery on soft chairs is greasy, worn, scratched; tablecloths are gray, washed out; decoration - several colored rags stretched under the ceiling. the hotel buildings resemble a hospital: the walls in the corridor are painted white, the floor is tiled with gray tiles. prints "under Greece" do not save. rooms - as again in some provincial Muhosransk: everything is broken, washed out to an asphalt color, a broken hair dryer, a burnt lampshade on a wall lamp, holes in the curtains, shabby doors and walls, cracks in the tiles, drips on the ceiling, a tiny piece of bathroom soap and one tiny bottle of shampoo (the three of us went, and for some reason there were two such sets), flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches alive and in the form of corpses smeared on the walls and ceiling; the TV shows 2 programs in Russian (there were 4 in another room) in terrible quality. TV and air conditioner remotes, as well as beach towels - on bail of 20 dinars. gym - for a fee. in retail outlets in the hotel, the prices are very much in everything - one seller calls one, the other - the other. playground - one name. kids club - one Lego set and a bunch of broken pencils. and about the weather. this was the biggest shock. icy heavy wind from Europe, waves as tall as a man, clouds in the sky, respectively cold pools (so what, what are there 6 of them? ). yes there is an indoor heated pool. but imagine how many people there are per square centimeter in such weather (everyone wants to swim). so of the pluses, only the first coastal (but so what under such weather conditions? ) And a large territory (I won’t say that it is very well-groomed and beautiful). in general, I never waited so much for a flight home and did not envy people walking with suitcases to the reception to go to the airport. on departure, I was expecting another "surprise" - they wanted to weigh the luggage so as not to pay for the overweight. it turned out that it costs 2 dinars, and weighing is carried out. . . steelyard! the only plus of this "rest" turned out to be that I still love my long-suffering, dirty, tortured and filthy Motherland! my advice is to choose another hotel if you really want to relax. do not waste your nerves and do not be fooled by positive reviews - I believe they are written by Russian employees of this hotel and employees of travel agencies that sell vouchers there.

I did not think that I would write, but I will write anyway.
we were from october 8th to 15th and everything is wonderful here.
though, depending on who that demands. for a tour for 2 in vntravel we paid 17000 UAH (about 650 dollars). flew through the oasis travel.
traditionally about the bad:
1. not tasty cheese and sausage.
2. The guide of the host of the oasis travel party in this hotel (from insight holiday), Nazir, never appeared at the hotel, but when they called, he was always in touch. I would like, of course, to talk, other guides came to talk about excursions, recommended where to go, how to behave, etc.
3. paid wi-fi - 50 dinars a week (we bought a local SIM card from the Ooredo operator and 3GB of internet, enough for a week and still left, paid 18.5 dinars)
good about the hotel:
1.3 Russian speaking administrators
2. A Russian-speaking girl Olya is sitting in the hall, she knows everything about thalassotherapy and advises on it, keeps an appointment with the spa, but if she turns to her, she will help with everything.
3. for 20 dollars (500 UAH) given at the reception, we were settled in a bungalow, instead of a double room, as in a ticket. tour with buncallo was 2500 more expensive - 2000 UAH saved.
4. if you speak English, then you are a king and God, the staff is insanely friendly, especially if you do not treat him like a servant.
The dialogue is elementary, I give an example of a conversation between my boyfriend and Hakim (a bartender in a lobby bar (boy-hello: )
bartender – Hello my friend!; )
boy- How are you? : )
bartender- Im fine, and you?; )
boy - Im okay! : )
Hakim-its nice; )
guy-give me please, The cocktail with mint for girl and twice whiskey -cola for me : )
Hakim-I make the best cocktail for your girl! Hakim addresses me: - the cocktail with whiskey or with rom?
i- with rom, please: )
-okay!
- makes a cocktail and 2 whiskeys with cola, puts them on the bar, pushes me a glass with cocktail tubes
i-thank you
guy- thank you very much! Have a nice day!
Bartender - thank you, have a nice day, too.
This is a real conversation, it was almost always the same with all the bartenders. On day 3, they already knew and remembered us all, and as soon as we arrived, they immediately made a standard set, and if we suddenly ordered something else, they apologized very much and made the order as quickly as possible, 3 bartenders work in the lobby bar in 3 shifts, in the bar 1 on the beach, 1 in the American bar, 2 in the pool bar.
they are insanely tired of the eternally drunk, sorry, Russo-tourist, demanding incomprehensibly what in an incomprehensible language, sometimes standing in line at the bar, we ourselves ate and ate what they were saying, and yes, we were not too lazy to help the bartender - to voice what it was the monster (it cannot be called otherwise) desires.
5. When we ate in the dining room, they always approached us with the question of whether everything was fine with us and whether we liked everything, and not intrusively, but simply passing by. Sometimes there were no white special papers and devices at the desired table, because they really didn’t have time to lay them out on the terrace, there wasn’t such a thing in the hall - they spend more time there, but we ourselves knew where to get them, and we didn’t fit, sorry , it was such that they noticed how we wanted to take it ourselves and just flew to us with words like, “no no no, this is my job, I will do everything myself, where is your table? ”, in English, naturally and instantly wiped it and served.
6. before our arrival, about a week before, there were terrible showers, suitcases were floating in the bungalows, because we had drips on the walls. We were sympathetic to this, and in fact we were all right. We spent very little time in the room.
7. cleaned every day, 2 times in 6 days we changed bedding and towels.
8. beach towels, remote control from the TV and air conditioner on deposit, i. e. You give a deposit, for beach towels 40dinars for 2, I don’t know for remote controls and a safe, we didn’t take it. The TV works without a remote control, we had a plasma, but we turned it on 2-3 times, we didn’t turn on the conder at all, we only checked whether it works, there is also manual control at about a meter and a half from the floor. I attribute deposits to +, because the money is then returned and if suddenly something is not enough for something, then you can buy more.
9. The hotel has 2 shops, one in the lobby and the second near the pool. Where it is necessary to bargain heavily near the pool, it is better to go there only for super-strong need, it is better to leave the hotel, turn left and walk 500m to the supermarket.
10. the animation is super, they are always funny and friendly, some of them speak Russian poorly, but for us the trip there was almost complete immersion in the English-speaking environment, with the exception of the Russians, who now and then wanted to find out what was happening there in Ukraine, so it wasn't a problem.
11. The hotel recently started working on an all-inclusive basis, so of course there are shortcomings, but in general, an excellent sea, its own water park on the territory, about 11 slides and also a children's water park. 2 pools for adults, 2 pools for children, an indoor pool, delicious food (beef, veal, chicken, turkey, lamb), once there were squids, insanely delicious pastries.
If you have any other questions, I'll be happy to tell you. The hotel is quite green (in terms of nature), the main thing is that everything is positive. We will go again, for sure.
we were from october 8th to 15th and everything is wonderful here.
though, depending on who that demands. for a tour for 2 in vntravel we paid 17000 UAH (about 650 dollars). flew through the oasis travel.
traditionally about the bad:
1. not tasty cheese and sausage.
2. The guide of the host of the oasis travel party in this hotel (from insight holiday), Nazir, never appeared at the hotel, but when they called, he was always in touch. I would like, of course, to talk, other guides came to talk about excursions, recommended where to go, how to behave, etc.
3. paid wi-fi - 50 dinars a week (we bought a local SIM card from the Ooredo operator and 3GB of internet, enough for a week and still left, paid 18.5 dinars)
good about the hotel:
1.3 Russian speaking administrators
2. A Russian-speaking girl Olya is sitting in the hall, she knows everything about thalassotherapy and advises on it, keeps an appointment with the spa, but if she turns to her, she will help with everything.
3. for 20 dollars (500 UAH) given at the reception, we were settled in a bungalow, instead of a double room, as in a ticket. tour with buncallo was 2500 more expensive - 2000 UAH saved.
4. if you speak English, then you are a king and God, the staff is insanely friendly, especially if you do not treat him like a servant.
The dialogue is elementary, I give an example of a conversation between my boyfriend and Hakim (a bartender in a lobby bar (boy-hello: )
bartender – Hello my friend!; )
boy- How are you? : )
bartender- Im fine, and you?; )
boy - Im okay! : )
Hakim-its nice; )
guy-give me please, The cocktail with mint for girl and twice whiskey -cola for me : )
Hakim-I make the best cocktail for your girl! Hakim addresses me: - the cocktail with whiskey or with rom?
i- with rom, please: )
-okay!
- makes a cocktail and 2 whiskeys with cola, puts them on the bar, pushes me a glass with cocktail tubes
i-thank you
guy- thank you very much! Have a nice day!
Bartender - thank you, have a nice day, too.
This is a real conversation, it was almost always the same with all the bartenders. On day 3, they already knew and remembered us all, and as soon as we arrived, they immediately made a standard set, and if we suddenly ordered something else, they apologized very much and made the order as quickly as possible, 3 bartenders work in the lobby bar in 3 shifts, in the bar 1 on the beach, 1 in the American bar, 2 in the pool bar.
they are insanely tired of the eternally drunk, sorry, Russo-tourist, demanding incomprehensibly what in an incomprehensible language, sometimes standing in line at the bar, we ourselves ate and ate what they were saying, and yes, we were not too lazy to help the bartender - to voice what it was the monster (it cannot be called otherwise) desires.
5. When we ate in the dining room, they always approached us with the question of whether everything was fine with us and whether we liked everything, and not intrusively, but simply passing by. Sometimes there were no white special papers and devices at the desired table, because they really didn’t have time to lay them out on the terrace, there wasn’t such a thing in the hall - they spend more time there, but we ourselves knew where to get them, and we didn’t fit, sorry , it was such that they noticed how we wanted to take it ourselves and just flew to us with words like, “no no no, this is my job, I will do everything myself, where is your table? ”, in English, naturally and instantly wiped it and served.
6. before our arrival, about a week before, there were terrible showers, suitcases were floating in the bungalows, because we had drips on the walls. We were sympathetic to this, and in fact we were all right. We spent very little time in the room.
7. cleaned every day, 2 times in 6 days we changed bedding and towels.
8. beach towels, remote control from the TV and air conditioner on deposit, i. e. You give a deposit, for beach towels 40dinars for 2, I don’t know for remote controls and a safe, we didn’t take it. The TV works without a remote control, we had a plasma, but we turned it on 2-3 times, we didn’t turn on the conder at all, we only checked whether it works, there is also manual control at about a meter and a half from the floor. I attribute deposits to +, because the money is then returned and if suddenly something is not enough for something, then you can buy more.
9. The hotel has 2 shops, one in the lobby and the second near the pool. Where it is necessary to bargain heavily near the pool, it is better to go there only for super-strong need, it is better to leave the hotel, turn left and walk 500m to the supermarket.
10. the animation is super, they are always funny and friendly, some of them speak Russian poorly, but for us the trip there was almost complete immersion in the English-speaking environment, with the exception of the Russians, who now and then wanted to find out what was happening there in Ukraine, so it wasn't a problem.
