Hello! I was in this hotel at the end of July. The hotel itself is beautiful. Spacious hall, beautiful carved ceilings, columns. The rooms are spacious, but the furniture is shabby, the balcony door is broken (did not close). But it's all right...
We flew with Karthago Airlines. There and back flight was delayed for 4 hours. The food on the plane was disgusting. We arrived on Saturday evening, settled us in a room overlooking the construction site. I would not even call it a view, the builders could easily approach the balcony and climb over it, despite the fact that we were on the 3rd floor. The doors on the balcony, as I said, did not work. The safes were all occupied, so on the first evening we had to carry documents and money with us. When we asked to change our room, they refused. The guide intervened well and resolved the situation, we stayed in this terrible room for only 1 day.
But I will never forget, when in the morning I went out onto the balcony, a bunch of chicks waved their hand at me, whistled and shouted something in their own language.

At 12 we were moved to another building, overlooking the tennis courts. The balcony door in the room was also broken, but we were not particularly upset. Everything is better than what it was

Beach....
The sea is warm, the sand is clean, there were not enough umbrellas and sunbeds for everyone. People came at 5-6 in the morning to earn their place under the sun. But the biggest problem in Tunisia is jellyfish. They burn very painfully, leaving red scars for several days. The first remedy after a burn is to rub the affected area with sand, and then apply a tomato, and then smear it with nourishing creams or burn creams.

Nutrition....
The food is very poor, pulls on 3 stars. Breakfast is standard: muesli, rolls (not fresh), scrambled eggs and pancakes. For pancakes turn for 10 minutes. Jupi powdered juices. For dinner: cereals, vegetables, potatoes, pasta.
The meat is tough as a sole. One consolation, grilled fish every day. The fish is bony, but quite tasty. For dessert, fruits: watermelon, melon, grapes (ice cream, do not pick off the ice). Delicious cakes. In general, you will not stay hungry, but you will not get pleasure from food. Although who cares....

The cultural program....
In the morning on the beach, exercises and water aerobics in the pool.
In the evening, dancing for the little ones, bingo, belly dancing (complete sucks), local folklore (for an amateur). In the evening there is nowhere to go but to the disco.

Tours....
I strongly do not advise a walk on the Pirate ship. The ship itself is beautiful only from the outside, nothing special inside. Very swaying. The kids were throwing up on deck. I don't get seasick, but I ended up feeling sick too. For swimming, we were stopped right at the port, the water there is dirty, we swam among algae, onion rings, slices of lemon and tomato, just like in soup (((

Carthage for an amateur.
The trip is quite exhausting. From the whole of Carthage you will see only a bunch of destroyed stones from the former baths. This also includes a visit to the blue and white city of Sidibusaide. Nice. I advise you to go to a cafe and drink tea with pine nuts.


The most worthwhile of all excursions is a trip to the SAHARA for 2 days. On the first day you will see the Colosseum and the tragladite caves. Then check-in at the hotel, and camel riding in the evening. I advise everyone. The next day, a jeep ride, a visit to the scenery of the movie "Star Wars", a visit to an oasis in the mountains. Everything was super.
