This was my first visit to Tunisia and I loved it. The hotel was lovely and very clean, the food was great with plenty of choice for all tastes. The location was perfect for the beach and a short walk into Port El Kantoui.The staff were very friendly and attentive and the animation team worked really hard to keep us entertained. As it was January the weather was a bit mixed, but I would certainly visit this hotel again in the summer.

the hotel was fabulous in a great location only 30-40 minutes from the airport and right on the beach. the rooms were lovely and the maid was great she came in every morning and made our beds and left fresh water in our fridges. getting clean towels was never a problem. the food in the hotel was always fresh and hot and the catering staff couldnt do enough for us all the staff were so lovely and friendly. the entertainment team were very jolly always happy and trying to involve everyone. i would definatly visit this hotel again so much so we have already booked to visit again next year. 10 out of 10 for everything from us. fantastic place. will recommend to everyone i know.

Stayed for a week end July/beginning August with my 16 year old son and his friend. Although this is officially a 4*, I would rate it as 3.5.
As other reviews have mentioned, the hotel was very clean but some of the rooms are beginning to look a little dated and the bathrooms would also benefit from being a face lift.
Being away with teenagers we tended to stay around the rectangular poor which is used for activities throughout the day which meant that there was constant loud music etc. We didn't mind this but for those that do, there is another free form pool which is well away from the noise. Certainly around the noisy pool there was no problem getting sun beds up until lunch time.
The food was, on the whole, good with a wide selection at all meals and the fresh pancakes each afternoon were fantastic. I don't think the alcohol was watered down like I have found before when all inclusive, however the measures were 25ml singles as in the UK rather than the expected larger free hand measures we usually associate with being abroad.
A previous review mentioned bottled water being expensive but when we were there each room had a fridge which was stocked with 3 1.5 litre bottles of still and 3 of fizzy water - all free of charge and if you needed more you just had to mention it to reception and it would be provided.
The staff were all very friendly and very hard working, especially the Animacion Team - 7 young men who worked day and night to ensure that the people who wanted activities were provided with them. As with all Riu hotels I have stayed at, the evening entertainment was mainly provided by the Animacion Team . I must admit, however, the entertainment here was slightly better than at others.
The hotel is only a 10-15 minute walk via the beach or main road into the marina where there are a selection of shops and bars. The weather was very, very hot. We didn't see one cloud all week and the temperature ranged from 28 degrees first thing on a morning till over 40 degrees in the afternoon. We were lucky in that we found an area around the pool where there was a slight breeze which made the intense heat a little more bearable.

Five of us went to Tunisia to play golf, I was a bit worried because I had been to Tunisia before & thought it a dump, this time it was a golf trip not a holiday as such, it`s a great hotel everything you need good food & a good room. Plenty to do & if like us great golf courses & cheap to.
Staff tried hard to please as it was all in they did not skimp on the drinks we will go back but just for the golf.
