Iberostar Diar El Andalous

All the animation team are amazing we enjoy our holiday days activity and nights shows are amazing specially fares who made our holiday

First let's start with the exceptionally good points.The renovated rooms are nice with massive beds (although abit firm for my personal liking) lovely waterfall showers in the bathroom and air-conditioning.A safe is provided and a nice size tv.Rooms are more than adequate for the time you spend in them and are really comfy. On our arrival at 9.45pm we were told to quickly make our way to the buffet restaurant and were shown the way as we just had time to get some tea which was well appreciated after a long day of traveling from birmingham to Manchester airport and then on to Tunisia. The food at the buffet restaurant was okay and you will always find something to eat (the beef is lovely and tender in the gravy).Breakfast was abit limited for us personally but there's always omelette.Snack bar is abit limited and it gives the impression that it's just leftovers sent down from buffet restaurant.The fish fingers they have a couple of times aweek were lovely. The pool area was our daily place to settle and have to say we loved it here.Would set up for the day and maybe have a wonder down the beach and back as we pleased.The staff round the pool were great and the bartenders were more than attentive (big shout out to Ali who looked after us all week).The animation team were absolutely great and so friendly they really make this hotel (as do all the staff) they engage with you and stop and have a chat (Sam, tito,pika,farez just to name a few were exceptionally friendly). There are a few shops,some selling gifts by the pool and a snack shop that sells bits and pieces by the sports bar. Now a few negatives for us personally. On arrival we reported our safe as locked on the app and all through our stay no one came to unlock it (luckily our children were in the room next door and we used theirs) They advertise a mini bar ours was empty our whole stay but our children had a bottle of coke and a bottle of water and that was it our whole 8 nights here. The sports bar was abysmal with some chairs infront of a tv on the wall,a pool table which you had to pay for and an air hockey table which you also had to pay for. No drink on arrival either. To sum up its true what other reviews say it truly is the staff that make this hotel a 5star and nothing in my negatives would stop us from coming back.Once again a big thankyou to sammi,tito,pika,farez,Ali,the lovely small manager in the buffet restaurant who's name unfortunately I didn't catch you all made our holiday exceptional. Book if you are looking at this hotel you will have a great holiday

Wow - from the moment we arrived we had the most efficient and lovely staff on hand to ensure we had an easy check in . The room was spotless with a lovely huge bed - with everything you needed . We were then able to access the restaurant as we had an early flight in so managed lunch ! The restaurant was again spotless , the food was everything you wanted and more with a huge variety . The ice cream and fresh fruit and juices became a firm favourite. My husband the carnivore particularly loved the variety of meat that was cooked on request - for me the fish was delicious. The pools had plenty of space and we never had a problem getting a bed - even though we didn’t reserve early like others ! Again if you couldn’t find one we witnessed the staff finding spares to ensure everyone was happy . The walk to the beach was a minute where there were lots of activities on the water plus more sun loungers . You could walk to some local shops for touristy things plus a taxi to the shopping mall was a few pounds very cheap . We also went to the market which was an interesting experience- but nothing that wasn’t expected abroad. The marina was also a lovely walk along the beach and took around 25 mins . We can’t talk highly enough of this hotel and the amazing staff that always had time for everyone- evening entertainment was a real added bonus too. We literally came back and started looking for a short break next year as the flight time is less than 3 hours so perfect . Loved it -very highly recommended.

My girlfriend and I stayed 3 nights at Iberostar in June, and we loved our short holiday. The room was clean, spacious, and very quiet. The bathroom was also clean and comfortable, with a spacious shower. The air conditioning kept us nice and cool at night. The buftet restaurant offered a large variety of dishes during each meal, and every dish we tried was delicious. The last evening, the tried the Tunisian restaurant, and we loved it as well. The garden, swimming pool, and private beach were well-kept and beautiful. There are shops and bars open all day. Ingredients used to make drinks were good-quality brands. We spent a long time swimming in the pool and loved it, including a playing session with Sam. In the evening, there was a fun foam party on the beach. One day, we booked a catamaran trip with Aladdin. The water was amazing, and we swam in the sea far from the coast. We also saw the dolphins. Organising was very easy, with pick-up and drop-off at the hotel. Thank you, Aladdin! Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. Every member of the staff was very friendly. Also interactions among them were relaxed and friendly, which added to the nice atmosphere.

This hotel is excellent. My wife, 14 year old daughter and I travelled with Easyjet and we just looking for a relaxing holiday. We did some research before we booked and the hotel had received excellent reviews for food and the friendliness of the staff. We arrived late at night but check in was quick and friendly. We had upgraded to a garden view junior suite and for the 3 of us this was ideal, it gave us all some room and our daughter her own space. The room had clearly been renovated recently and came with a coffee machine and excellent shower. The maids were excellent, friendly, and the room was always spotless. The hotel grounds are lovely, well maintained and very green.We think this was one of the smaller all inclusives hotels we have been too and the whole atmosphere felt more like a chilled beach club. Everything was close by but importantly you never felt hemmed in or living on top of everyone else. The pools were great, just the right temperature. We could always get sun loungers and a parasol and the lifeguards and pool bar staff were friendly, warm and welcoming. We especially liked the large shallow ledges in both pools for just quickly cooling off and watching the world go by. The beach was excellent, and being able to borrow canoes or pedalos each day was good fun. The food in the buffet was excellent... the best we've had anywhere, ever. Plenty of salads, freshly cooked food and a good variety of local produce and Tunisian specialities. Quality was always excellent. We never got bored of the choice for the 11 days we were there. The pastries at breakfast and the desserts were particularly good. Again staff worked tirelessly but always friendly and helpful. The bar staff at the lobby bar were great, it was nice to sit out on the terrace in the evening and have waiter service. All whilst watching flamingos flying overhead. Special mention to Jalel who was brilliant, and despite my daughter's shyness had an amazing repertoire of mocktails that he would bring for her... each more elaborate than the last. He like everyone that works there are an absolute asset to the hotel. For my wife and I the quality of the alcoholic drinks were great.. we don't drink a huge amount but the mojitos, and espresso martinis deserve a special mention. The nightly special cocktails were a nice touch as well. The hotel's location is great, with the marina an easy 20minute walk away. There were always taxis outside too, always agree price before you get in, but never had an issue. We would definitely recommend this hotel, if you are looking for a chilled out, laid back holiday. Despite us generally not going back to the same place (a whole big world to explore and see), we are all in agreement... we will be back and likely sooner rather than later. Thanks to all the management and staff. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
