The nuances of staying in all-inclusive hotels in Tunisia

All inclusive holidays in Tunisia are characterized by some nuances and peculiarities. You need to know in advance and be prepared for the fact that the hotel base is somewhat weaker than in Egypt and Turkey. Most hotels are already 20-30 years old or more. Renovation, renovation, overhaul is done from case to case. Star rating for hotels in Tunisia is assigned by the local Ministry of Tourism, based on the list of official requirements for a particular star rating. Often, the star rating of Tunisian hotels is overstated. Not all hotels in Tunisia offer an all-inclusive vacation - the percentage of hotels is not as high as in Egypt and Turkey. In the hotels of Tunisia, for the duration of your vacation, you will be offered a decent enough meal, but often not up to the usual "all inclusive" meal plan. In Tunisia, besides lying by the pool all inclusive, there is something to do - in addition to gorgeous beaches, sun and walks in nearby towns, there are many different excursions. The most popular are Carthage, the Roman amphitheater and the Matmara caves, Phrygia Park, Carthage Land amusement park, the city of Dugga and others.

Which resort in Tunisia to choose for a vacation.

Hammamet suitable for lovers of respectable and rich rest in Tunisia on all inclusive, there are many good hotels of 4 and 5 stars. Developed tourist infrastructure, beautiful nature, beautiful beaches and, of course, the sea. Sousse a more economical and party area for recreation in Tunisia. Mostly there are 3-4 * hotels, but you can also pick up a good 5-star all-inclusive hotel. In the north, Sousse is bordered by the resort area of ​​Port El Kantaoui. Mahdia small quiet town with few hotels. But here there are all-inclusive hotels, for example, El Mouradi Mahdia 5 * will even offer an "Ultra All Inclusive" option. The resort is suitable for a calm and measured holiday, and the beautiful sea and the beach will only contribute to this. Monastir you can choose for a combination of quiet relaxation and trips to the hangout Sussa (several kilometers away). The sea and the beach are relatively good. There are all inclusive hotels, for example Royal Thalassa Monastir 5 * all inclusive. Djerba- an island for a secluded and measured rest. There are many hotels of different stars with thalasso centers and SPA. Nabe is perhaps one of the most inexpensive holiday resorts in Tunisia. The hotels are mostly 3 stars and a few are 4 stars. Not far from Hammamet, where you can go for a walk. Port El Kantaoui This is a tourist "reservation" near the port of El Kantaoui, formally an area of ​​the resort of Sousse and located 4 kilometers north of the border of the city of Sousse. Hotels for every taste - there is also "all inclusive", there is also just bb, hb, fun rest, lots of entertainment, cafes, enchanting shows, etc.

Features all inclusive in Tunisia.

The concept of "all inclusive" in Tunisia is not as "large-scale" as in Egypt or Turkey. Usually all inclusive in Tunisia will be offered three or four meals a day on a schedule. In Tunisian hotels, intermediate meals and "snacks" (if any) are not always included in the "all inclusive" price, this should be borne in mind. Alcoholic drinks are often free, but not always. Very few hotels, even those operating for Ultra All Inclusive, offer imported alcoholic beverages. Usually, if the hotel includes alcohol in the all inclusive concept, local drinks will be offered. In some hotels in Tunisia, during the evening rest at the bar, be prepared for the waiting intervals between orders of alcohol.

Whether to take an all-inclusive vacation in Tunisia

Holidays in Tunisia "all inclusive" are perfect for families with children, for senior (retirement) holidaymakers and for those who came exclusively across the sea and the beach. If you come not only to relax by the sea or the pool, take half board (HB) - thus you will not be tied to lunch at the hotel. After breakfast in the morning, you can go on an organized excursion or go on your own to the nearest city to see its sights and have lunch there. Tunisia has a huge number of taverns, cafes and restaurants of various price categories, the only thing is to try to avoid very small and nondescript cafes-eateries.

If you nevertheless decide to take an all-inclusive hotel in Tunisia for the duration of your vacation, be sure to carefully study what exactly will be available with such a concept of rest in the chosen hotel.

The general level of hotels in Tunisia is slightly lower than that of competitors in terms of the beach and the sea - Egypt and Turkey. There are not many new hotels, most were built in the 90s. They are usually updated selectively and not completely - only in exceptional cases hotels are closed for complete reconstruction. Changes usually consist in cosmetic work, new furniture, new decor, etc. Strictly speaking, Tunisian hotels can safely write off at least half a star in comparison with European standards, and often a whole star.

The official category of the hotel is assigned by the Ministry of Tourism of Tunisia. To receive the coveted stars, a hotel must offer an established list of services, have the required number of restaurants, a pool of a certain area ... - formally meet the official requirements. Two hotels of the same category can differ greatly - in terms of variety of food, sophistication of interiors, paid and free services, position on the coastline, quality of the beach, etc.

Hotel categories and what to expect from them

• 4-5*

There are very high quality modern "fives" in the country - 2-3 hotels in each resort. Most 5-star hotels offer good service, convenient grounds and direct access to the sea - nothing more. High-quality 4-star hotels are not much different from most "five" hotels, and they are not much cheaper - it often makes sense to pay a little extra and indulge in the pleasure of, say, swimming in a pool with not ordinary, but sea water.

Tunisian hotels of 3 * category are focused, as a rule, on mass tourism and operate on an "all inclusive" system. In the total mass of "three rubles" there are hidden gems, where for a moderate fee a tourist will be treated like a native - but here "you need to know the place."

A distinctive feature of some 3-star hotels built in the 70s and 80s (which means they are small, slightly dilapidated and without much amenities) is a wonderful territory. In those days, land on the coast was worth negligible, and far-sighted hoteliers chose not to save on square meters. Today, the extensive manicured gardens of such hotels are the envy of many pompous "fives".

"Dvushki" in Tunisia are practically not offered to tourists - as a rule, this is an "option for one night" for local residents and poor neighbors, Algerians and Libyans. These are mainly city hotels, not beach hotels.

* Boutique hotels Another accommodation option in Tunisia that often attracts individual travelers is the so-called hôtels de charme, small cozy boutique hotels with 10-15 rooms. They are located in authentic and picturesque places - for example, in Sidi Bou Said, Carthage, in the towns of the island of Djerba, in Matmata, in the old quarters of resort towns. As a rule, such "charm hotels" are owned by a Tunisian family (sometimes it is a family house turned into a hotel or part of a house). Homelike atmosphere reigns here, the hostess prepares breakfasts herself and makes sure that the guests do not need anything. Of course, the "charm hotels" will not have a spacious pool and noisy discos, but you can enjoy home comfort and feel the real atmosphere of family Tunisia. However, in some places they can offer something unusual: a trip on a yacht belonging to the owners of the hotel, or mastering the intricacies of Tunisian cuisine under the strict guidance of Madame Manager.

A few words about all inclusive

Tunisian all inclusive does not always, so to speak, include all. In other words, it is better not to be guided by the Turkish or Egyptian option, in which "all inclusive" really means free use of everything that is only in the hotel and all sorts of pleasures on a grand scale. There are a great many variations of this format in hotels in Tunisia, and it is better to specify in advance what type of food and what services will be free, and which will require additional costs. Some of the more common features of Tunisian all inclusive are:

• 3 or 4 meals a day. Do not expect the hotel restaurant to be open 24 hours a day - breakfast, lunch and dinner times are clearly set. Some hotels offer "night bites" until 2:00. Beachside barbecues serving grilled fish and seafood, as well as additional a la carte bars and restaurants, may not be included in the all inclusive.
• Alcoholic drinks can either be included in the concept or be offered for an additional fee. Soft drinks are always free. In some hotels, there is a waiting system between orders of alcohol portions (according to the barcode of the all inclusive bracelet, 5-7 minutes).
• Hotel spa services will generally have an additional charge. This always applies to balneo and thalassotherapy, and often applies to hammam-sauna-massage. However, there are hotels offering free steam in the hammam. However, in this case, you will most likely be asked to pay for bonuses - wraps, massage, etc.
• Umbrellas, sun loungers and mattresses are included in the tariff, but beach towels are often charged (1-2 TND per day) or, at best, they take a deposit of 10 TND, returned upon check-out.
• Sports activities and entertainment on site (animation, mini-club, water aerobics, etc.) are always provided free of charge. But water sports on the beach (parachuting, water skiing, jet ski, etc.) are paid.

There is a great variety of all inclusive options in Tunisian hotels, and it is better to specify in advance what type of food and what services will be free, and which will require additional costs.

About "friends" and "aliens"

An important point - can outsiders, including local residents, enter the hotel? This is strictly monitored (or rather, they are trying to strictly follow) in the "fives", a little less zealous - in the "fours" and practically are not at all concerned about it in the "three rubles". At the same time, the compassion of the local population cannot be disregarded. Even in a five-star hotel, you cannot be sure that some Tunisian will not get in there: "I ask your mother's head, brother, let me in, I really need to talk to the girl ..."

The same applies to hotel beaches. Don't be surprised if you have to sunbathe in the neighborhood of Tunisians - this is a common thing in three-star hotels. "Fours" and "fives" watch more, but only when it comes to ordinary people: in some hotels, the local elite who come to the hotel to spend money, walk in a restaurant and use a spa are officially allowed on the beach - after all, this is beneficial to the hotelier. Sometimes it comes to curiosities when there are not enough sunbeds and umbrellas for the guests - they are all busy with the Tunisian golden youth.

Summing up: it is not at all necessary that you will meet locals in a Tunisian hotel, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.

Which resort in Tunisia to choose

The most popular beach resorts in Tunisia are located on the east coast of the country. In order from north to south, these are Hammamet (plus the tourist area of ​​Yasmine-Hammamet) and Nabeul, Sousse (plus the tourist area of ​​Port el-Kantaoui), Monastir (plus the tourist area of ​​Skanes), Mahdia, as well as the southern the island of Djerba with several tourist zones - on the north, north-east and east coast. In addition, the small resort town of Tabarka is located on the northern coast of Tunisia; also rest in the suburbs of the capital Gammarth and the resort village of Korba next to Nabeul. The only thermal spa resort, Hammam-Bourguiba, also has a small number of rooms.

• Hammamet is preferred by lovers of respectable rest, both couch potatoes and party-goers - there are a lot of accommodation options: from luxurious "fives" with thalasso centers and hotels of 5 * world chains to solid "fours" and "threes" with "all inclusive". The advantages of this resort are picturesque green landscapes, a separate tourist area of ​​Yasmine, a huge number of restaurants and discos. The sea and beaches in Hammamet are wonderful.

• Sousse is a more democratic resort in comparison with Hammamet, although here it will not be difficult to find a respectable "five", despite the fact that most of the hotels are 3- and 4-stars. It is more noisy, fun and crowded here, and the audience, so to speak, is simpler and more “interspersed”. In terms of the number of restaurants and discos, Sousse is not inferior to Hammamet, but there is more of a reckless atmosphere of life-burning in the air than a carpe diem flair. The sea is slightly inferior to Hammamet and Mahdia, and the beaches are more crowded with vacationers.

• Monastir is a cross between noisy Suss and quiet Mahdia. Staying at one of the resort's hotels, you can combine a peaceful pastime under the lapping waves with rides to the "riots" in neighboring Sousse (10 km). There is a good "excursion" on site: several medieval buildings, museums and a magnificent mausoleum of the first president of the country. Disadvantages - there is practically no entertainment within walking distance from hotels; you will have to get to them by taxi. The sea is quite decent, but nothing particularly stands out among other resorts.

• Mahdia is a cute town that stands apart from other resorts. It is very quiet, there are very few hotels and almost no nightlife - a couple of discos and restaurants throughout the resort. One of the advantages is the opportunity to enjoy nature in relative seclusion, take thalassotherapy courses and observe the leisurely life of the locals. The sea and beaches are considered the best in the country.

• Djerba is the southernmost resort (or rather, a collection of resorts) in Tunisia, where it is always slightly warmer than on the mainland. The island is interesting for some kind of "alien" - everything, from landscapes to local clothes and way of life, here is completely different than on the continent. Rest here is quite secluded, measured and quiet, there are many hotels with thalasso centers, however, in Djerba you can find any type of accommodation. The island has many interesting sights and museums, an amusement park and even a crocodile farm. The praises of the sea and beaches are traditionally sung, but apart from the really magnificent sections of the coast, there are also quite mediocre beaches.

• Nabeul can be recommended for tourists on a budget, with no special requirements for accommodation and service. There is not much entertainment in this resort, so you need to tune in exclusively to what you can get at the hotel. But with all the proximity to the boiling resort life of Hammamet, it is quite secluded here even in the high season. Most of the hotels are "three-ruble" and a few "fours" without fanaticism in pleasing customers. The sea is quite decent, there are very good beaches.

• Korba is an add-on to Nabeul, home to the only Africa Jade tourist hotel. There is absolutely nothing to do outside the hotel territory, but in the hotel itself they try to entertain guests as much as possible. They pay a lot of attention to children, which will be appreciated by families with babies. Also pensioners and those who absolutely do not need violent vacation frenzy like to come here. The sea is quite decent and, given the absence of bathers, the surrounding area is very clean.

• Gammarth is a picturesque suburb of the capital with great hotels. The local beauty is green hills that slope steeply down to the sea and are built up with rich villas. Gammarth is usually chosen by tourists who are equally interested in a respectable beach vacation, beautiful "harsh sea" views (forests, rocks and foamy surf), sights - Carthage and Sidi Bou Said just 6 km away - and the proximity of the capital whirlwind. There are modern thalasso centers, as well as all the entertainment of the capital - from sushi restaurants unprecedented in the rest of Tunisia to the Max Mara boutique in the elite district of Le Berge du Lac. The sea is rather contemplative, often turbulent, but very beautiful. The hotels own quality sandy beaches.

• Tabarka is the extreme western enclave of the North Tunisian coast, a quiet resort village with no more than a dozen hotels. There are exceptionally picturesque green surroundings: coniferous forests, hills and plateaus, a beautiful rocky coastline with sandy areas and rich opportunities for diving (this is where a 300-kilometer coral reef is located). It makes sense to go here for fans of secluded relaxation without noisy entertainment and with average requirements for comfort. The sea is very clean and beautiful, but slightly colder than on the east coast, and often choppy.

Inexpensive Tunisia, which does not require a visa to enter, has replaced the annoying Turkey and Egypt for tourists from Russia. Characteristic feature of this country is that this state is the most Europeanized in all of Africa. In order to plunge into the mysterious and intoxicating Arab world, you still need to know the places. In this article we will take a look at all the significant resorts in Tunisia. "All inclusive" - ​​the concept of recreation, widely practiced in Egypt, in this African country has its own characteristics. We will also tell you in detail about the nuances of the Tunisian All Inclusive. We will also review the resort hotels. By the way, they do not always offer all-inclusive meals. Therefore, when choosing hotels, you should make sure that the All Inclusive system is available. And what are the prices for tours to Tunisia expected in winter 2016-17? In this article, we will give a short reference on this.

Hotel base in Tunisia. Five star hotels

Overall reviews were found to be lower than competing countries Egypt and Turkey. There are few new hotels. The lion's share of hotels was built in the nineties of the last century. As a rule, they were partially renovated: cosmetic repairs, replacement of furniture and plumbing fixtures, interior decoration. The Ministry of Tourism of the country assigns stars according to the list of services provided by the hotelier. Thus, a five-star hotel can only meet formal requirements: to have a swimming pool of the required area, restaurants and cafes, etc. It so happens that nearby hotels of the same category are strikingly different from each other both in the quality of food, and in the equipment of the rooms, and in the quality of service. Another feature of Tunisia is that even with such a formal approach to stardom, there are very few fives in the country. Literally two or three at every major resort.

Hotels in Tunis (4 stars)

"All inclusive" is being successfully implemented in hotels of a lower rank. And sometimes the reviews point out a strange feature. Four-star hotels are not much different from five-star hotels. Is that fresh water is poured in their pools, not sea water. But the cost of rest in "four" is slightly inferior to a five-star one. Whether it is worth paying extra is up to you. In general, hoteliers in Tunisia are mainly concerned with providing thalassotherapy services to their guests, not "architectural bells and whistles" and not a round-the-clock feast of the mountain. The main attribute of a good hotel is the SPA center. Everything else is irrelevant. But tourists - reviews often mention this - love 4-star hotels in Tunisia. They have all-inclusive, thalassotherapy center too. Most of these hotels are located on the first line of the beach. What more could the soul wish for? Of course, formal requirements are put forward for such hotels to be assigned a star rating. Therefore, in this category, tourists observe a discrepancy in the quality of services and services.

Hotels in Tunisia "3 stars"

In this country "three rubles" have a distinctive feature that makes them a desirable vacation spot for many tourists - and not the most budget ones. This is their territory. The fact is that such hotels were built back in the seventies, when no one spoke of Tunisia as a resort country. The land was cheap, and therefore enterprising hoteliers chose the most popular resorts in Tunisia. All inclusive, front line, spacious pool and huge, well-kept, blooming garden fully compensate for the dilapidated building and the lack of newfangled amenities. And the prices in "three rubles" of Tunisia are already significantly different from the "four". They are aimed at the mass tourist and, as a rule, do not stand idle. Among them there are real gems with a recent major renovation, new furniture and excellent quality of services.

Features of the "all inclusive" system

It's time to tell about the nuances of "All inclusive", which differ in all resorts in Tunisia. All inclusive in this country is more like full board. Meals - there are four of them in the "five", in hotels with a lower status of three - are held according to a clearly established schedule. Non-alcoholic drinks in restaurants and bars are offered free of charge, but money can be charged for alcohol. In the "five", all client quirks are included. But the rule does not give drunkenness: the time between orders (5-10 minutes). The bracelet has a specific barcode that allows the bartender to navigate when serving customers. The same selectivity of paid and “gratuitous” services applies to the service sector. You can freely use sun loungers and umbrellas, participate in water aerobics classes and other entertainments of animators, take your child to a mini-club. In some hotels, guests can take a steam bath in the hammam and sauna. But other spa and thalassotherapy procedures, as well as massages, already require additional payments. Sometimes they cost money (albeit symbolic - 1 TND per day) and beach towels.

All Inclusive Resorts in Tunisia by rating

How were the travelers' sympathies distributed? After all, the number of stars in Tunisian hotels is not an indicator of their level of service. When choosing a hotel, you should first of all be guided by the reviews of tourists. In Djerba the largest number points - 10 out of ten possible - was scored by the Hasdrubal Thalassa Djerba 5 * hotel. In Hammamet, the hotel was named the best. In Sousse, tourists gave their sympathy to the Riu Imperial Marhaba 5 * hotel, and in Monastir - “Helia Beach and Spa 4 *”. In Mahdiya there is a very good hotel "El Muradi 5 *". In Nabele, tourists recommend staying at Cheops 4 *. All resorts in Tunisia "all inclusive" prices are approximately the same: from twelve and a half thousand rubles for a tour in a "three-ruble note", 16 300 in a "four" and eighteen and a half thousand for a vacation in a "five".
