Beautiful hotel, excellent location in the urban area, which distinguishes Tunisia from Turkey or Egypt. Fairy sea. But....
We arrived at Enfidha at night. We hung out on the bus for an hour and a half until everyone was taken away. Our hotel was the last. Rested from 22.09 to 06.10. 15 days. Settled quickly, the room above the small pool. Only the porter was paid. We were given a 2 room suite for 3 people. Wifi in the room worked constantly, unlike other rooms, where he did not take at all. Everyone ran to the reception. Room number 172. I still had time to go to the bar. It is open until 0.00. Everything seems to be OK! But... We went to bed and nightmares began !! ! The air conditioner does not work. It hums but doesn't get cold. The heat is around 30 degrees! It's impossible to sleep!! ! Opened the window. It was a mistake!! ! Mosquitoes were then beaten for 3 days. Bloodstains of our blood were everywhere!! ! The raptor is useless. Zero reaction to it. More windows were not opened until the end of the trip! And so every night! We don’t sleep at night, it’s hot, and during the day everyone sleeps on the beach. It happened that at 2 o'clock in the morning I go to the sea, it is dark there, but there is no wind and mosquitoes. I sit until the morning. Otherwise, there is no way out. To our indignation they answered us that the air conditioners work ONLY until September 15!! ! AWESOME service!!! ! We waited anxiously for the coming of each night. THIS IS THE MOST HUGE MINUS IN THE DOLPHIN!! ! Imagine a restaurant stuffy. People eat food while wiping sweat off their foreheads. How do you like this vacation? Are you going to Dolphin? I won't go again.
I won’t talk about the fact that the taps in the bathroom are broken, the doors are shabby, these are trifles. Cleaning almost every day. This + The staff is neutral. Not like in Turkey or Egypt, where everyone smiled and said hello. There were some here too, but not many. If I don’t say hello, then no one will even nod to me. Although I always say hello. We could already get used to it. Pour everything in the bar on the finger, no more. Even wine. Take 2-3 doses and pour into one glass when the bartender ends up with a warning from the security guard called. They, like, have cameras and you can only pour on your finger. I gave a dinar to a guy, poured more 2 times and began to hide when I came up to my partner to serve me. This is also a disadvantage of the hotel.

The sea is a fairy tale. The sand is white, the water changes color from blue, green, to blue! Super! But... The wind rose, the waves nailed the grass to the shore. The workers do not clean the grass, they sit near the sunbeds. Day 3 grass was full, then removed. It's good that you can go to the other side of the pier, where there was no grass. And there are no waves. The sea is super! This +
The food is so-so. The cuisine is similar to Turkish. Seafood, once they gave squid, once tuna, as well as a small bony horse mackerel and a small red mullet (several times). Fish in the city in bulk!! ! Cheap fish!! ! But... We are ONLY a bony trifle. We drove home, in other hotels, even in 3 kah they fed us seafood. Here is the full savings! You can’t bite the meat, the fish are small and bony. Dairy normal. Breakfast eggs scrambled or boiled. In short, for the first time they ate like this and lived in such conditions. This is our 5th country after Turkey, Egypt, Palestine and Israel. We won't go to Tunisia again.
Now about the animation - well done guys! Everything is SUPER!! ! Professionals. Work out the salary for all 100!
I share my experience of eating seafood at my own expense. In the city on the market, king prawns cost 6 dinars (UAH 30) per kg, tiger prawns 12 dinars (UAH 60), 1 kg of tuna-5 dinars (UAH 25) FREE!! ! There are mussels, octopus, squid, shark, dorodo, garfish....even snails are sold. Everything is VERY cheap! We bought shrimp at the market, left the market through another exit, there is a cafe. A French woman or a guy when she's off. They have a fee to cook any seafood 4 dinars per 1 kg of product. This is 20 UAH in Ukraine. 30 shrimp + 20 cook = 50 UAH kg. It's very cheap. You can buy live shrimp. They are HUGE!! ! You just ask for a know grill, and show the water (water) in the pan. Yes, they already know. Served with parsley, onion and lime. SUPER!! ! They also took tuna.

Yet. Tunisia is international. We rested with all nationalities. We communicated in broken English from the school curriculum and computer words using gestures and fingers. Funny, interesting, but everyone understood. A couple more weeks and it would have been easier. Tunisia, a former French colony, is a small France. Automotive industry RENAULT, PEUGEOT, CITROEN mainly. Eau de toilette paris. . . The language is mostly French. Found friends from USA, France, Germany, Italy, Denmark, Russia, Poland, Lvov.....
The city is old, it is interesting to see how and where the local population lives. On weekends, locals also swim on the beach with tourists. There is nothing in this. Even interesting. They have girls with covered heads, they are very beautiful (the face is not closed). They have fashionable bags, make up, bright lipstick... So they bathe with their heads covered.
In short, decide for yourself whether to go or not. I will not go, at least not to this hotel for sure. At night, suffer from the heat and sleep during the day under the sun - ENOUGH, we've had enough!
