Ageing, but still good

The odyssey resort is by the architectural style the most authentic hotel tunisia, unfortunately but also ageing, what in every corner it is clear. Biggest drawback: the rotten sanitärleitungen. Everywhere it smells like sewage, often also after fäkalien. Otherwise very very clean. Wifi is in area bar and front desk for free. Universe inclusive are possible. Mainly french guests, few germans and even fewer british. Despite holidays in France and some states were hardly any kids there, the children of tunesiern or lybier. read more

    The rooms are big enough with bath and separate toilet. The rattan furniture have already seen better days. The balcony is equipped with a small table and two armchairs. Criticism is the tv reception. The devices are ancient. Receivable is only ZDF and RTL, if the channels was functioning, otherwise 6 french, 1 italian transmitters and several arabischsprachige. At 6 weeks holiday at least we from time to time once news can, in german language! Bathroom and toilet were very clean, without mold. But with a hair dryer and various small bottles of shampoo, shower gel and body lotion.

  • Gastronomy

    There was a main restaurant with buffets to all meals and a menu restaurant, in the once during the stay a typical dinner be consumed (Couscous). By the pool there is a field-pizzeria with a poolside bar. In the bar can enjoy drinks in the all-inclusive-carte. On cleanliness and hygiene we couldn't complain. The cuisine is international. Once per week there was a tunisian buffet, once an italian, once a candlelight dinner. The renovation from the main restaurant the room optically well. The furnishing is still from comfortable rattan furniture. Through the vaulted ceiling with several pillars, the room not so sterile like in many other hotels. Tips are like everywhere gladly taken.

    Friendliness is with the staff largely written. As well as make every effort with the guests in their native languages to speak, except the entertainers and the guest carer. As except french as good as nothing, why the almost exclusively around the french and locals care, if at all. Only for lunch they were always the fastest. Our room was always piccobello cleaned. A mini club is available, but it was due to a lack of kids almost always closed.

    Entertainment-see above, disaster! Sport offers were very infrequent, at best darts, the play the ladies and gentlemen at the dearest one. There is in Tunisia nicer beaches, so we will go in the winter not into the odyssey. The hotel-own beach section every day well maintained. Beach chairs are abundant, at the pool as well as at the beach, with umbrellas. Beach towels are spent in vain, for an appropriate card, for the 20 Dinar be filed. Except for the large pool there was also an indoor pool and a thermal pool in the open.

    The odyssey resort is situated in a beautiful garden of palm trees directly at the beach, an oasis in the stricken area. The the hotel's gardener give themselves very much trouble. The airport Djerba is approximately 1 hour away. Above the hotel is the settlement sangho. Shopping and night life-none, we didn't want that anyway. Some small bars and restaurants are located, as well as a bus stop with driving possibilities after zarzis and Djerba. Due to the lasting drought the country is completely completely dry. Street cleaning seems only sporadically must take place. Garbage and dross decorate roads and open spaces.

A friendly hotel with special atmosphere by the architectural style and the general sophistication the hotel. Cons considerable because of the existing sewage treatment plant. The sewage be unsettled on the beach into the sea -this is not at all (!), even if it other so! The hotel is also suitable for persons travelling alone, although the security sometimes 'annoying '. Now and then also seemed the paint-pot sometimes miracle (peeled paint on doors and borders should be sanded off, otherwise leafs it 'forever'). Also the balcony flowers thank you for enough water. Verdorrtes should be removed, as the daily ... remove the washed ashore seaweed. The treatments in the spa/ thalassobereich are much too expensive. But the good temperate indoor pool and the thermal pool never crowded, but also there in need of renovation. read more

We visit the hotel for years and feel comfortable. Since we keep coming back to us with friends apply, Boule and jointly elderly party, are of course things on, the other holiday-makers in such a way not see. We can see, that the new management a positive effect on the hotel too. Only the entertainers should be schooled better, because they really hardly will be marked as such. They act after the motto: if you work, and not pressed, is crazy. This attitude should definitely change. The hotel area is large enough there to stay, because outside the ' use ... of waste products' since the jasminrevoltution risen. This is the best solution for a relaxing hotel. read more

    We always book the same room and were satisfied. It is clean and large enough. Positive was the separate toilet. The tv is still unacceptable. The two german programs are in addition to and of poor quality. You are very hard, but it does not help much. With a star hotel you have a larger variety of programs and quality. It is simply to old installations, because the jeweler in erdgeaschoß get the programmes is the best quality and high numbers. If you something to see, then this is a good stop.

    The selection of dishes was taken, is however still well. The food tastes, if you take into account in a hotel and not with 'nuts'. The cleanliness and also, the hygiene was without blames. The taste was very towards the Tunisia made for. The atmosphere is through the converted dining room better. Only disturbing were the kleiderstil of some of the guests, the apparent with half long pants and ax shirt just felt comfortable. There would have the hotel management must, as other hotels is usual. The dining room is open for evening dinner no french fries digs. As everywhere, small recognitions make the stay pleasant and waiters and guest satisfied.

    As regular guests qual we the staff and they know us. If we check in, then we are at home. We never a problem had, because we feel comfortable in the circle of our friends and make our thing. The language skills have general deteriorated, which probably because of the small number of german holiday-makers is due. Everything is otherwise alright and a small tip even manages mountains to move. The new management is positive effect. The complex is clean and well maintained, but ageing.

    The animation was hardly detectable. As soon as anywhere and possibly work be made could, were the ' entertainers' disappeared. It reminded me of the cute meerkat, the danger of lightning in the construction of jump. The beach is through the seaweed always somewhat affected, what creates jobs. After the flood, the alluvial seaweed funky and after high tide it is again there. The loungers and the cushions are the retirement age has come, but are usable. There are also more than enough to our appointment available. Positive was, that finally changing at the beach have been created. You see quaint from, but their purpose. Years prayer was heard.

    The hotel has immediate access to the beach, but the access to the sea was a bit difficult. You have to know where the stones are. There was also a jetty from the flchwasserzone leads out, but the storm suffered had. There the area quite littered, of the beautiful hotel grounds and garden hardly on the resort to leave. It is not worth it. Only the cheap phone calls we already times in the middle town. If you must, then take a taxi, is the price before and drove to zarsis. We had all-inclusive and needed from outside nothing.

It was a really great vacation, the hotel was very good, the staff and the director always helpful. It was clean and a very comfortable hotel with a beautiful ambience to be comfortable. The rooms were very spacious and clean. The food was varied and varied, for example pizza, tunisian specialties, rice, pasta, vegetables, fish etc. And a very large desserts buffet. The pool was also large and the possibility to the beach was give directly. There was chairs and covers free, as well as Bath towels. The beach was in the morning seaweeds cleaned. Unfortunately gathered this seaweeds during ... the day at the beach and the view was not so nice, otherwise were lots of small Rocks in the water. These could however avoid, since a large long jetty directly in other sea leads was available. As a beach holiday definitely recommendable, however were the activities outside of the hotel poor. So nothing for explorers for the city and the country suitable. read more

There is nothing to complain about, except the lautsprecherübertragung the entertainers and the music until late in the evening. The majority of the guests want but relaxation and love the peace and quiet in a beautiful environment. There we liked it so much, for 2013 booked again.

    Nice large room. Beds are 2 times 2 meters large but hard as concrete. We had tv in the room. Safe must be rented for 1.50 Euro on the day.

    The hotel lies in a very quiet corner. Direct access to beach which is very beautiful. Just 300 meters you have nice shops. The travel guide offered excursions our own into your hand taken. 1/2 price! Are out of the hotel and we took a taxi (driver name Abdul! Simply brilliant the man). Are half a day with him on the way for only 15 €per person.

Excursions are from the hotel or tour operator directly offered, however you can also simply onto the street go. Here the whole day taxis with German-speaking drivers are required, the one gladly the sights of interest closer to bring.

Very beautiful hotel. Good food, very varied, locals as well kitchen. The hotel is clean and corresponds to the standard of four stars in any case. That the hotel lots of French guests is, is in my opinion no point of criticism of the hotel, the language Tunisia is French, so naturally French, the rarely another language, of course in French-speaking countries, these you know and if you don't mind, must stop in a country, whose language you understand. read more

That was a really successful holiday, the exceeded our expectations has. Hotel and beach are very well maintained, the food was varied and very tasty, the room was spacious and clean. The animation offer and the evening shows were varied, so that there was something for everybody. Chairs and sunscreens at the pool as well as at the beach were numerous available. Staff are very friendly, partly a bit pushy opposite women. The hotel we can wholeheartedly recommend! The only problem the was handicap friendly. There are lifts available, however all stairs no railing, which older people or people with ... mobility problems here problem could. read more

The hotel complex is lovely, I had rarely such a beautiful architecture seen. It is much to feng shui. The hygiene is enough. The tables with of the pool bar you had to itself wiping, they were with a günsten bemusterung mistake as the dirt does not see. We had all-inclusive and were very satisfied so that.

    The rooms was nicely big, however received us on arrival an almost intolerable odor, the breath nahm. I thought not, I find that this 2 weeks can bear. It is a mixture of modder and toilet-sewage. You have the feeling, that the whole facility rots. The terraces and entrance door could only my husband opening, the castles hakten so, that only with violence open. The bathrooms- and toilet-door could not at all close, they were totally warped. Is of course not very pleasant if a the toilet goes...

    Outstanding was the local kitchen. Very diverse and good, especially for guests with a sweet tooth may like. Excellent. Bother us, that the two hot plates, on which fish etc. Fresh prepared were, only in use behaved as already the guests in the restaurant were. Because of this you had to long wait until the court is ready and it formed long queues.

Basically from the staff french spoken, only a few a few words of German, no English. The cleaning of the rooms was sufficient, the bathroom was mildewed, however were daily the towels and bed sheets ( pillow, blanket) changed. The 1st day we wanted for the cleaning lady 5€ on the table and my husband, 6a 2€ -piece in the drawer for you then right time as tip for the waiters etc. bereitzulegen. They were also promptly after the cleaning of the rooms way. I reported this at the front desk and said: the cleaning lady gets during our stay no tip more, the itself served. Comment: 'okay'

    The beach is as I have already mentioned a nightmare. There is a jetty built, on the you could further go out and over a ladder into the deeper water, but also this area was morning at low tide about 1.30 meters deep and with buoys in pool size pegged. At high tide, you could well swimming, if you seaweeds like it. To the pool I can unfortunately anyway not really positive say: only a very small area was with a depth of 1.30 suitable for swimming. Some schmierten is thick with suntan creams and went straight to, still with a white layer on the skin, the pool. A lady drove even with a rolling walker to pool. Was as mentioned from zehentiefe up to 1.30 meters. I think the already disgusting. There should be the lifeguard but instructions. But there are wonderful shade of olive trees and palm trees and of course lie is in sufficient number of.

    The complex is directly at a fine sandy beach. However there are up to 5 meters high algenberge bouffant the stink. The whole beach is dirty. However 200 meters left there is a beautiful well maintained beach, but who wants to at 40 degrees as far as walk? A few stores were the hill - 300 meters - and then turn right. The town of zarzis is about kilometers away, costs with the taxi 2 to 3 Euro.

    Size of the room enough. Air condition worked of 14 days only 5 days. We had most of the time homey 26 to 28 °C in the room. Fridge disgusting filthy. We didn't use it. Problems with mini -ants, through holes in the tile joints from the balcony reinkrochen -everything sweet, which one in the evening are left, was on the next day black. Rattan furniture in the room disgusting, full of dust and dirt, mattresses worn out. With the shower you could between luke warm and scalding choose.

    Very good cuisine, varied. Giant cake buffet with super -cakes. The restaurant itself was very clean, dirt was immediately. Unfortunately there was rather rarely the local specialties ( from time to time Couscous, briks ).

    Front desk clearly overburdened - example day 1: due to the lack of air conditioner and 28 degrees in the room we wanted at least a extra-bed sheet ( only had a common). Only after 4 (!) hour, 3 extra-call and finally my personal appearance at the service counter and my refusal, to disappear before I did not get I could then the sheets finally in. Also on the instruction, that the air conditioning wasn't working and they a technician chic should you again and again with always new excuses put off. My tip: if you want something done want, do not call, but directly to the front desk and stay there, until something in the launch. Apart from that rather the save time. Waiter and kitchen staff for this very friendly, quick and competent, otherwise clearly fremdsprachenkompetenter as the receptionists. Cleaner very friendly, cleaning of the rooms very poor-but the fairness must be mentioned, that with rattan furniture and poorly verflugten terracotta -tiles ( in which partly still hair from the previous guests stuck) with a simple mop also not at all was possible.

    Odyssey resort is located in the nirvana. At the beach walking was due to debris (tyres, preserved, etc. In the sea directly in front of the hotel) and piled seegrasberge (in 2 week only once, in other words one day before our departure were cleared) hardly possible, the entrance into the sea so the ' eierlauf '. Who here ' meter long, fine sandy beach' described must be in another hotel spend a vacation. For children I would urgently slippers recommend! Who in the morning at 8 at the beach sets and evenings around 8 again rises, the feel may well.

On the first evening we were our waiter a very generous tip to, with the please, we would have liked to every evening the same table for six persons. We had fourteen days our table and stood for each evening our desired drinks on the table. , just great and we had every evening a table :-). Also our' room boy' got a good tip and the rooms were always top clean. A doctor we didn't need it, but there were always two doctors in the hotel present. What the communication concerns, the official language is french, which most also spoke, only we do not. But also with German and English you got without any problems further. Up to a few exceptions the staff were very friendly and accommodating, it is not free, as in the forest in calls, so echoed it back...

    Activities were only in french and Italian language, which didn't bother us, since the animations not loud and pushy. In the hotel there is a disco, but that hardly visitors had, as probably outside of the complex a gave. Also there was a kids club, however also only in french. Loungers there were at the beach and at the pool each quantity and shade donated the countless palm trees and olive trees in the extensive and very well maintained complex.

    The hotel lies directly at the sandy beach, the hotel area, except for some seaweed, on the whole clean was. Away you at the beach from the hotel way, it was extremely dirty. The beach is partly rocky, therefore there was also a jetty use, some meters into the sea goes in and so the entrance into the water relieved. The next town, zarzis, is about kilometers away and comfortable with the taxi, or by horse-drawn carriage to reach. For the coach were per person 25 €! Requires, regards to Momo... The price acted for 15 €down, which Momo half a heart attack brought, but the tunesians want bargain.

    The beach closes directly at the resort and has a long jetty far into the water and from the into the sea go can. The entertainers in the hotel were a bit strenuous, as they were constantly tried to all activities to motivate. Who likes it is correct \u263a From the hotel were quad tours and carriage rides to the market and into town offered.
