Location
The hotel was very clean and the maids came evryday but they came quite early and they did walk in so we put the do not disturb sign on the door.
The food was great, the breakfast was the best (full english) it eas the same ost notes but suh a wide varity.
The staff were lovely and the reps were always there in case of a problem.
We didnt really like the entertainment and got a bit board in the evening (but we are both 18) it was more for family.
Its about 15min walk to sun set strip which was brilliant.
We would go again but with other people so we dont get board again, but a lovley relaxin holiday.

The entertainment staff put on a really good shows I really enjoyed the "we will rock you" they were friendly.
The food in this hotel was really good I am a really fussy eater but most days/nights I found something to tickle the tastebuds. The hotel was really clean everywhere you went there was a cleaner.
I would definately go back to this hotel.
The down side to this hotel was it wasn't near anything you were a 30min walk from San Antonio so you couldnt just go out whenever you wanted also the pillows in the rooms werent the best I had a sore neck every morning.
Over all the whole was good I would definately consider going back & I would recommend it to a friend.

Fodd is fantastic and no disrespect but if anyone complains they must be extremely fussy eaters i mean we have 3 children ages 6,5 and 16 months and there was something for everyone!!
It was a little disappointing not to be able to use the other pools this year and the pool at Tanit was fairly busy on our first week but there is a fab beach and you can still get beds down by the other pool and it is beautiful so don't know what all the fuss is about!
Well as the the fiesta staff we know them from last year and speak regularly to Pico etc and they are fantastic Dj sadly won't be there next year but him and Pico are fantastic and Chris well my daughter was besotted with hm and he was fab with her! Lou and Dana too such fab girls and made you feel part of the family!!
all in all i suppose if you go July and Aug its gonna busy but thats life we went 1st sep and had a fab 2 weeks and WILL be rerurning after all your holiday is what you make it if you go with a negative attitude you will give us brits that moaning reputaion and won't enjoy!!!
Thanks Tanit once again

Firstly let me say that we are a "normal" family, we work hard for our money, we are Mr and Mrs average, this is relevant because every person has a different perception of what is acceptable behaviour, and I would like you to bear this in mind when reading about our experiences. We found those that enjoyed the Tanit experience were those that had lower standards than our own.
GOOD POINTS
Excellent standard of cleanliness.
Good standard of furnishings in bedrooms, with adequate room for family of 4, 2 children aged 12 and 10.
Food kept at correct temperature, hot food was hot and cold food was cold.
BAD POINTS
During our 2 week stay the Tanit had in excess of 1,100 guests every day, causing severe overcrowding in restaurants, entertainments room and the pool.
326 sunbeds around the pool in an area designed, in my opinion for half that amount, white garden chairs added to the pool area to accommodate even more guests. Absolutely no space between sunbeds, sunbeds pushed tight against each other to maximise space unless a white garden chair, parasol or small table was inserted between them. Often impossible to put your legs either side of the sunbed in order to get up. Access to the pool and to steps leading down to the gardens often blocked by sunbeds, very difficult to use pushchairs around the pool area and impossible for the wheel chair bound gentleman who was staying when we were there. The hotel has ramps for wheel chairs but during the day there is no pathway through to the ramp due to the sunbeds.
Guests reserve "their" space at the pool side fom 5.30am. Despite the Hotel's policy of non reservation of sunbeds, people mark out their territory with towels, plastic chairs and parasols and then replace these with the sun beds once they have been unchained at 9am. The hotel does nothing to discourage this behaviour.
The withdrawal of the use of facilities of the Fiesta Cala Graccio Hotel, which has additional pools within the grounds of the Hotel Tanit. Fiesta guests have the benefit of using all fiesta hotels in Ibiza and are not told prior to departure that this benefit has been withdrawn in respect of the hotel that shares it's grounds, however the guests at the Fiesta Cala Graccio have full use of the Tanit's facilities and exclussive use of the Hotel Tanit's disco.
A restaurant seating 525 guests with 2 hot drinks machines at breakfast and 2 toasters, guests often queuing for 10 mins for tea and then another 10 minutes for toast, by which time their children had eaten their breakfast and were bored waiting and became boisterous and noisy.
An entertainments room with 220 comfortable seats despite its official capacity to seat aprox 320, restricted views from pillars within the room. Seats were reserved from 7pm onwards for entertainment, the main element of which starts at 10pm.
No evening entertainment geared towards the older children (12+) and no facility for them to chill out anywhere, hence large groups of teenagers hanging out in reception, in hall ways, out side the front of the hotel and in the foyer. The least they need is a room with chairs, a free juke box and drinks machine.
This is a loud, noisy, boisterous hotel, do not book this hotel if you are a normal family looking for some good quality time with your children. We experienced clients at this Hotel who were willing to let their children run riot through the hotel, climb over furniture and deface it, some parents seemed not to care what their children were up to or where they were. People rarely dressed for dinner and many wore the same clothes they had been wearing around the pool. It seems the all inclusive facility at this hotel encourages the "got to get your moneys worth" attitude ,discouraging exploration of the island and it's culture. In my opinion some clients would be more suited to a budget holiday camp in England with a bar, a large screen TV for the footy and a solarium for the tan.

The pool is a bit of a joke with people putting chairs out at stupid o'clock to reserve their spaces as the beds are not unlocked until 9am. We couldn't believe our eyes, when we saw people sitting outside in a lightning storm that lasted most of the morning. There is a problem with the French having sole use of the pools at the Cala Gracio hotel. They can still come and use the pools at Tanit which does seem a little unfair.
The entertainment team work very hard even though some of the equipment is a little dated.
Rooms were clean, although with 2 teenagers it was a little cramped.
The hotel just does not seem to have a big enough pool area for all the guests, if the hotel is full.
At night the entertainment is inside, which again is not big enough for the amount of guests in the hotel.
I know that this sounds as if it was a bad holiday, but it was actually a very good holiday except for the minor points listed above.
The location is a very quiet although it is only a 15 minute wlak into San Antonio, or you can take a water taxi for 3 Euros each.
The beach is lovely and if you go onto the rocks early in the morning, then you can see all sorts of creatures in the sea. We saw an octopus walking along the sea floor which was amazing.
The pool situation does need to get sorted out and the hotel probably needs to get a grip on people reserving their beds at ungodly hours.

Wouldn't return here until they sort out the pool area, 1200 guests. 325 sunbeds!! You do the maths. It was OK before when you could use the pools at the adjoining hotel Cala Gracio but this has now been stopped because its only for the French!!
Although they can still use all the facilities at the tanit, inc the resturant! NOT ON! SORT IT OUT THOMSON!!
