Room: We had a room on the 4th Floor, what a view! You can see the 2 pools, the beach and the rest of Hammamet. The room had to single beds pushed together. The room was cleaned every day and the AC was adequate.
Food: Excellent, buffet which changes every night or a la carte (Pay extra)We paid

The rooms have enormous beds and were spotless. However, the mini bar is locked as this is an extra but did mention this in the brochure.
The facilities at the hotel were above excellent. The pools were spotless, there was always someone cleaning and testing them.
There were three pools and never seemed crowded.
The beach was out of this world, it was definitely the best in the area. As all inclusive you were provided with a lounger and cushion with umbrella by both sea and pool.
The food - I'm not saying it was good, but we got up most mornings at 6.00 a.m. for our first breakfast, and did not seem to stop eating all day.
The main restaurant was excellent; we had our own waiter who treated us like royalty. Once again the food was top class (especially the desserts).
The only negative side was we found that we noticed that all-inclusive holiday makers definitely got shorter measures on their drinks compared to paying customers. However, after a couple nights we find if you handed the waiter or bar staff a few dinar this changed.
The entertainment at the hotel was not brilliant, but you had to give the entertainment staff full marks for effort.
However, we did notice that children were well looked after and seem to idolise the entertainment staff.
We feel that this hotel is suitable for both couples and families.
However, we do wish that children are kept out of the adult only pool as we found that people took young babies into it without nappies and no-one stopped them. There were plenty of other pools for them to use.

We stayed in the Phencia hotel for 2 weeks, it was the best holiday i have ever had. The staff are so friendly, they cannot do enough for you. The food is excellent, so much choice and the lunchtime snack bar is inexpensive. The drinks are excellent value and they also keep you supplied with crisps and nuts as long as you are drinking at their bar. The pool bar has a small jacuzzi pool, this is very relaxing just to sit in and chill.We tended to go down into Hammemet at night as the hotel entertainment is very basic. There is a disco but we never saw more than 20 people in it. The local bars vary a lot in price and standards. You just have to try them and once you find one you like stay there! The downside to going down town at night is the flower people - all night men are trying to sell you jasmine, this smells very strong. Taxis are very cheap but the drivers are a bit manic (it costs

We have booked today 9th October 2004 for June next year this will be our 4th visit and quite honestly we will probably go there every year in the future, everything was of the highest standard but we think their biggest asset is the friendliness of all the staff nothing is to much bother, from the porters who greet you every time they see you up to the senior management the all give you their undivided attention
I would recommended this hotel to anybody can

We chose to stay all inclusive in the Phenicia having stayed in an Iberostar hotel elsewhere previously.
This should be a top quality hotel but short fallings abound. Take extra money if you
