We also visited this resort at the same time as the below traveller and had pretty much the same experience. If you enjoy going on holiday with lot's of different nationalities then this is the place. I am not a typical brit who has to be surrounded by them on holiday but it is nice to mingle in the evening with other holiday makers and enjoy a drink. This wasn't the case here. This hotel caters for the French, German, Russians and generally eastern europeans. The food is ok, its gets very repetitive and Chicken curry is on the breakfast menu??

The hotel is clean but somewhat dated. The maids have no concept of knocking and walked in on me in the nod. I also caught one of them having a sneaking squirt at my perfume, so I dread to think what else she was up to when we weren't around??

The hotel ran out of alcohol at one point due to the rowdy russains drinking it dry and the only entertainment we could find to do was play pool. The pool area is clean but there is no atmosphere. The beach is lovely with friendly staff but do watch out for the hagglers, they will try and sell you anything at riddiculous prices.

There is a small bar next door to the hotel which has a little bit more of an atmosphere but don't get carried away it is only slightly better than the hotel.

The gym was a bit of a health and safety hazard with wires hanging out of the bike (photo's attached). I'd stay well clear and just relax in the sun!

Don't be fooled by the 4 resturants, 6 bars and endless food as that is rubbish, there was one resturant and one bar, possibly because we were out of the season but the hotel was jam packed??. Food times are also limited.

Overall I wouldn't go back to Hammamet Yasmin as it seems very dead. This certainly is a relaxing holiday with just the beach and pool to entertain you.

Hi Fellow Travellers,

Well where can i start....

The Hotel - I have to admit the hotel was kept very clean and me and the misses were very happy with this, the food was very average and being all inclusive became very boring after a few days. The staff were helpful, but watch out for the cleaners, they do not understand the concept of knocking on your room to check if your there, they just simple open the door and walk in, first couple of times we understood, but not for the the whole week, the main downside of this hotel was the noisey drunk russians, who have no respect or courtesy for anyone apart from the barman (even he disliked them), they literally drink the bar dry, also be warned about the timings food is being served, it is so confusing.

The Area - I do admit we did go in the off peak season, so many place werent open and it got to the point where there was not much to do, the hotel is literally a stones throw away from the beach which is always a good thing, the beach was nice no compliants there apart from being hassled by the locals to buy fruit, nuts extra....make sure if you do haggle as they seem to pick a price out of thin air.

Things to do - we went Quad biking which was AMAZING a must do they take you into the proper Tunisian countryside, we also went on the Pirate ship cruise which was interesting. I also advised getting your tickets from outside the hotel as you will find better prices. You can also vist the Medina, but be warned of the traders they do not stop hassling you and they have no respect for women out here be firm with them and you will be ok. DO NOT go to Carthage Land as we were told it was an amusment park...yes this is true but its is for kids under 10 and we literally walked around the whole park in less then 10 minutes, unless you have kids avoid this.

Overall the holiday wasnt to bad dont get me wrong i think we went at the wrong time of season, this is an holiday if you want to just go relax by the pool or beach all day long, which isnt really me, as the saying goes you pay for what you get!!!

Our party of 10 people have just returned from The el Mouradi el Menzah hotel in Jasmine Hammamet and are very disappointed.Just some of the bad points are ,the A/I we paid for was very limited as there was no other eating places except for the main dining room for the first week of our stay.No ice cream for the children,no aircon,no safe in .the room,no mini bar,no hairdresser,no internet . On the whole the food was very poor and very scarce, and repititious .I have travelled around the world and I would definately say this is not a 4 star hotel.A 3 star rating would be very generous.Another important point ,not many of the staff speak English and as the fire alarm went off at 3am this was quite worrying as we weren't sure if this was guenuine or a false alarm.We have been to Tunisia 3 times before and we would certainly go back again as in general the people are very friendly and the weather always good.Unfortunately it would not be to this hotel.The grounds and the staff are very nice but as for the rest of the hotel don't set your expectations too high.

We had a great room, overlooking the sea.
Hotel is very good, clean and the staff were excellent too.
Loved the pool.
Beach just across the road and very clean.
Would love to stay here again next year.
Was still very hot in October, in 30's every day.
