4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2013

Stayed here for 7 days. The beach was really beautiful, the pool area was well-maintained and the food (we had All-Inclusive) was really tasty and plentiful! Unfortunately the room was, in my opinion, a bit declined. But overall we had an affordable and comfortable stay!

I visited the hotel in order to teach a workshop; it is not the sort of place I would normally visit. If you want to have a holiday where you eat and drink as much as you like and do aerobics in the pool and join in organised activities you'll like it but it is so remote from Tunisian life... More

Just returned from a week at this hotel with friends. The weather was fantastic and really made it for us. However, we were slightly disappointed with the hotel. We felt the bedrooms were very basic with no nice little touches, although they were clean despite a couple of bugs one evening. Our room overlooked a generator, which meant there was... More

We made our second visit for two weeks from 16 June, 2012 and then our third for another fortnight from 4 September, 2012, so this is two updates in one. Of course the summer months are different to Autumn since the days are longer and that means more sun. It also means an early start since it is burning bright... More

This is our 4th consecutive visit to this hotel, having been there once before that in 2000, making five visits in total. Since 2000 it has developed quite a bit. It is now "All Inclusive" so once you have paid for your trip, you should encounter little or no other expenses. In our case, the extra costs were for our... More

Just returned from a week in this beautiful hotel. The rooms and indeed all the hotel were kept beautifully clean. Lovely pool with plenty of sunbeds with mattresses - this also applies to the beach area. The food was very tasty with plenty of choice, and also pancakes round the pool at 3pm were scrummy. Also the staff were very... More

Frankly, this review suggesting the staff were rude and unable to speak English I find very insulting. Me and my whole party made an effort to be polite and friendly and the staff were a delight back - perhaps the reason that particular party were ignored was because they were boring, rude and ignorant, there would simply be no other...

Never again! This hotel is far from being 5 stars. The rooms are very basic, the bed sheets were not changed a single time in the week we were there, no lift to get to the second floor (not easy being pregnant with a toddler). The buffet restaurant is ok, nothing more. The Italian and seafood restaurants were horrible. Bad... More

This is not a five star hotel and not suited for English people, as the staff are unable to understand simple words such as water. They are only able to speak French which made us feel as if we were not included. Around the pool they only made announcements about the daily activities in French which meant that we were... More

Just got home after one week in Djerba. What a great time we had. The hotel was excellent, the food smashing, something to suit all tastes. My only criticism was the entertainment. It was diabolical. The hotel is very French and German orientated but that is only because this is the second year of English people going there and they... More
