Villa spacieuse et magnifiquement décorée. Literie tres confortable. Propreté au top. Personnel au top. Le seul point negatif c'est le petit déjeuner et le buffet, ce n'est pas du tout au niveau d'un hôtel comme The Residence Douz. Vu le prix d'une nuitée, le client mérite un petit déjeuner de meilleur qualité, et plus de choix.

The rooms are super nice and you get buggy transporation around the resort. Staff are nice and helpful! Service at the hotel pool is slow and I would expect better facilities and more things to do/entertainment within the resort.

Bel hôtel dans un cadre magnifique

Bel hôtel personnel professionnel hélas pour 5 étoiles pas de terrasses aménagées pour les chambres . Le lit fait beaucoup de bruit et les oreillers ne sont pas très confortables dommage car les draps sont très agréables ainsi que la literie . Le spa ouvre qu’à 13 h . La carte du restaurant est restreinte. La souris d’agneau est excellente. Coupure d’eau durant 4 h pas de solution apportée . Pas de surclassement malgré le peu de clients Le personnel des voiturettes est au top . Les dattes garnies sont délicieuses. Merci pour le gâteau d’anniversaire. L hôtel semble encore en rodage .

Luxe et confort mais burkini interdit...

Hôtel d'un confort incroyable. Personnel d'une extrême gentillesse et très attentionné. Le seul problème est l'interdiction du burkini dans la piscine,ce qui est une aberration dans un pays musulman...Cette interdiction n'est d'ailleurs signalé nulle part lors de la réservation!
