Hi,
Having a debate with my good lady. Can anybody tell me if they charge for air conditioning in the Golf or is it part of the package deal.

Thanks

no charge

Hi Paul+3,

Well thats was us back on sat. And man was it hot,even the waiters were complaining about the heat.They said it was freak weather for this time of year. It was in mid to high 40's every day. I love the sun but that was to hot for me.
As for resort,the marina was lovely and plenty of shops to keep the other half happy.A bit disapointed with the beach,we love the beach but only went on it one day as it was very diry with cig end's and broken bottle's.We were told it had been all cleared up because of complaint's but we just stayed at the pool. But as I said it was just to hot to do anything. It was in the mid 80's at 9 o'clock at night and could hardly get a breath.

Hotel was OK we were at the back overlooking the gardens and got the sun on balc in afternoon.Staff were excellent but food was so so. I am not fussy but at the push thier was always chicken or turkey or thats what they called it.

Over all we enjoyed ourself and it was a good hol.

has anyone been here recently?was going for a 4star but found a really good deal for this one in september
thanks

Not for a few years but it was fine when I went. It's very well placed, within easy walk of the Marina at PEK. Acqua Palace is just over the road and there is the GolfBrau (beer house) next door. The staff were very nice when I was there and the food was OK. I'm sure you will find some more up-to-date reports but if not I would go for it if you've got a good deal.

Can anyone supply an email address for the Golf Residence ?

golf.residence@gnet.tn

but don't be sure for an answer !

Kind regards from the Netherlands,
Pittie

How very true Pittie if the Golf Residence follows the example of other hotels. Some can be notoriously bad at responding to e-mails in my experience.

if its concerning a booking i have this 1
golf.sales@topnet.tn ....the managers name is riadh put your phone number in the email and he will contact you we have been going there for 3 years and find it handy to mail them and get the rooms we want hope it helps
or heres the phone number 216 73 348 833

Went to this Hotel last year. Some of the rooms are very dated, we were lucky after the first night we managed to get our room changed to a better one. On the whole we enjoyed our holiday but Tunisia is one of the places I wouldnt visit again!!

I would say you are staying in one of the better resorts, I would avoid Sousse at all costs.

I would avoid Sousse at all costs.

Oh dear Fidget, Sousse obviously wasn't to your taste but quite a lot of us actually prefer it. Like anywhere else it's 'horses for courses' and though I enjoy visiting PEK it always seems rather artificial and touristy for me, whereas Sousse seems more authentically Tunisian.

Sorry aslemma, it was just my opinion, I found Sousse really smelly, dirty and not very authentic, yes your right about PEK but it was very nice to get back there after a hassled day in Sousse.

This wasnt my first visit to Tunisia, I had been before a few years before, I believe we stayed near Skanes on that occassion.

I have friends who love Tunisia but sorry it leaves me cold

We stayed here a few years ago,although read some decent reviews since,we wouldnt go back,Breakfasts were awful,boiled eggs and Butter beans,dinner was nearly lamb stew every night,but a lovely pool,and evening entertainment was decent compared to most hotels,dont accept a room at the front,very noisy disco club next door,noisy crowds all hours,hotel nice inside but food let it down,have now found a fab hotel in PEK that we stay in now,meets all our requirements.

Hi does anyone know the e-mail address for hotel residential golf port el kantaoui please.Ive tried the one listed on the hotel reviews a couple of times but i keep getting my message returned.thanks
