The hotel turned out to be colorful and cheerful, the food was delicious, the pool was clean, the guides were polite, the technical staff worked well, but inconspicuously.
I was in Tunisia only in Magdia, I lived in the "5-ke", I got a lot of pleasure and was very afraid to spoil these impressions by living in the "troika" - reviews are different, but how many people, so many opinions.
The three of us lived in a room, everything (including air conditioning) worked for us, it was not crowded for us, the room was cleaned with enviable regularity by fiction (see photo),
The territory of the hotel is very beautiful, many flowers, everything is well-groomed, there is a special playground for children.

It takes about 5 minutes to go to the sea, the beach, compared to Magdia, is almost "wild", but there are more than enough sunbeds and umbrellas, the sand is sifted every day, there are trash cans everywhere. The sea was different, when it was rough, it brought algae, I don’t know if this is a seasonal phenomenon, or they are always there, I met only one jellyfish. There are picturesque stones in the sea, on which at low tide it is very good to pose for family albums, and most importantly, you can swim far and no one will drive you over the buoys.
The most interesting excursion in Tunisia, in my opinion, is a trip to the Sahara. I was there for the second time and saw a completely different desert - wind, sand, camels - the element in all its glory. It is difficult to endure it for a long time, but the camel journey lasts only an hour.
We also went on a sightseeing tour of the island with a visit to the ancient synagogue of Le Gribe and the cities of Djerba. The guides know their business and the Russian language well. The hotel guides were running around with us. as with small children and answered any questions.
Everything that was missing (fruits, juices, wine) we bought in the store and did not deny ourselves anything.
The food - breakfast and dinner - was delicious, there were enough utensils and everything else for everyone.
The flight with UIA was comfortable and everything happened on time, despite the fact that the flight was a charter one. We got more than what we were promised in "Access" when we bought the tour. The quality was clearly higher than the price!
If you like to swim, are not very capricious in food and are capable of some extreme camel or jeep riding on dunes - this is a holiday for you.
I even think about whether to leave to live in Tunisia : -)), although, of course, tourism should not be confused with emigration : -))
