Anniversary Break

Having just returned in June from Sinbad we are looking forward to going back for a longer period of time, (we were only there for a week). From the moment we entered the Reception area we found all the staff extremly polite and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. (My French and German are not brilliant but we were understood and afforded politness all the time). The resturants were fabulous and the Chiraz, A la Carte resturant over looking the pool was superb. Being fish eaters the choice of fresh fish was brilliant and the staff really made our anninversary evening special. A table was dressed with fresh flowers on the table and a very personal service. Breakfast was to die for with a buffet like you have never seen and again the staff were very accomadating. Our room was extremly spacious with a queen sized bed which was excellent as my husband needs the extra space. The bathroom and loo were spotless and cleaned every morning with clean towels. Hammamet town is a 40 min walk away which you can get to along the beach, the medina is fun to go intobut beware you will get children trying to sell you flowers and they are persistant even if they teel you they are free, unless you want them ignore them. If you know what you want from the Medina then make your mind up before you go in and only look at those things, stick to your guns when you don't want to buy. Haggling is good fun but start at a low silly price and decide what you want to pay and stick to it. Walk away if you have to . The Ceramics are beautiful here and can be bought for good prices. Just outside the Medina walls on the beach side is a very nice resturant and cafe well worth a visit. All in all a very nice restful holiday and highly recommended.
