I have already been to Tunisia. A year ago, exactly. And in the same city of Mahdia, but in a different hotel. (see link to previous vacation -
I liked it, so I came again. TA "MANSANA" sent me from Kyiv. Friendly and caring people, who were sympathetic to my whims, constantly kept their finger on the pulse and ear in touch. I was a little capricious - I chose the host, I asked for windows oriented to the sunrise, the Ukrainian airline. Got everything she asked for. No problems - solid pleasures. (By the way, the meeting party is the Exotic tour. And the hotel guide, who sincerely received me last time, Hassen M "Nasser. I recommend it)
Now about the trip. You can read a sufficient amount of information about the hotel in other reviews. It is beautiful, with well-groomed territory and developed infrastructure. There is a Thalasso center, but I have not been there. I basically went to the nearby Vinci Nur Peles. An important advantage of Thalasso in Mahdia Peles is that the doctor of the center speaks Russian tolerably and the staff also tries to speak in a language you understand. But - this advantage is leveled by a large number of Russian-speaking tourists in the hotel, with their dissatisfaction with everything and everything accompanying their stay, the readiness to make a fuss and snatch out "the piece of comfort they are entitled to. " On the very first evening at dinner, a gray-haired man literally stopped me with a plate, who, having figured out a Slav in me, began to tell how to move from a non-prestigious minus 2 floor to a higher one. And I didn't need to. I was accommodated well. What he was incredibly surprised. For he was convinced that all Russians were poorly accommodated (I am a Ukrainian, and I reported this to EVERYONE). To my logical question, "And how? ", followed by a logical answer, "It is necessary to scandal and drive. " I don't want to make a fuss and drive. Therefore, I did not communicate with any of my fellow countrymen. But it significantly expanded the stock of Arabic words in their Tunisian dialect. Greetings, gratitude - enough to get what you want without emotional breakdowns. In principle, this rule applies to any holiday country, and not just to Tunisia.
Now about the tour. I took an excursion "to the Sahara" for two days. VERY LIKE IT. They say that we drove 1600 km. This is not just a visit to the desert - it is a sightseeing and exciting trip around the country. Only 205 Tunisian dinars - and a lot of pleasure and new experiences. Fresh dates, just plucked from a palm tree, pomegranates the size of a baby's head, which the owner of the oasis cuts with a knife straight from the branch, a strange but tasty palm juice. What about olive oil? You can get enough of them with just a piece of bread on hand. And real couscous. And a spicy harissa appetizer made from authentic hot red peppers. The locals laughed, stroking our tears in a hail and politely reported that THIS is a soft version for tourists. I have no idea what they are eating. Fire! And also - the dwellings of the cave Berbers - troglodytes. And the scenery for Star Wars. And the sunset in the Sahara, to watch which we were taken on a caravan of camels. And the magnificently preserved amphitheater El Jem. The guide assured us that something was filmed there for the movie Gladiator. Maybe. The tour is interesting. And not tiresome. Well, who cares. I'll keep a few things a secret for your interest.
About food at the hotel. The hotel is catering for breakfast and dinner. It was unpleasantly struck that there were no dates at all, which I loved, and this was at the height of the season. With fruit, in principle, it happened. Melons, plums, grapes and pear-apples. Not exotic, but....The fish was only once in eight days. It is also strange - after all, fishing is one of the main ones in the country. Next time I will take the all-inclusive system, because I spent more on wine, juices and dinners than the difference in the cost of the HB and AI tour.
The room was good, I watched the sunrise, I had to fight off the maid, because she tried to change the bed and towels all the time. By the way, there are bathrobes in the room.
Yes, the Russian channel RTR Planet is set up. This is if someone cannot live without Carmelita.
There are many elderly couples from Germany - they dance beautifully in the evenings tango in the lobby bar.
Rest is calm, relaxing and peaceful.
Well that's all. I wish you pleasure.
