Aqi Skanes Resort

Had a week here this July for a large - 22 people - 'last' family holiday before kids and adults alike go their own ways. Whilst yes the hotel feels a little outdated and tired in places, Tunisia is not sharm or the Mayan coast..if you're expecting 5 star gilt everything then you'll be disappointed. However the staff are incredible, the hotel is absolutely fine, the food is good enough AI, the drinks range is limited but adequate, the pools are clean and large enough, and the facilities are sufficient for having a decent holiday. The team at the wunderbar were superb - shout out to Anis who remembered a pretty long drinks order and was always there with a refill. I'm also going to shout out Aladdin the TUI rep - very knowledgeable and accommodating..messaging me at 22:00 with updates to dive trips All in all, a great first trip to Tunisia.

My family had a fabulous time at AQI Skanes. The room was kept clean and the cleaner was aware of our schedule and roughly what time we left the room. The bar staff are very attentive, always on the ball. You dont need to worry about an empty glass! They have a wide variety of food and different themes each night. My daughter loved the pool and slides. The life guards were always aware of the kids. Hedi at the relax pool saved her life one day, I was so grateful. She also loved kids club and mini disco. The staff here were second to none and we have travelled often. I Would like to thank each and everyone of them for making our 2 week summer holiday amazing!

This hotel is outstanding, the staff here are all amazing and very friendly. There are so many activities available during the day and night organised by the amazing animation team. The animation team was so friendly especially Chris, Mahdi, Sam and Alice. They were always there to help and to get you involved. The cuisine was amazing too the food was delicious and there was so much choice. The nightlife was so inclusive too for the kids and for adults there was so much to do, but particularly the animation team was just brilliant and i would definitely come back again.

The food was absolutely amazing chefs were so kind to me and my family the front desk staff were so so so kind to us and I really enjoyed the service at this place - the entertainment staff were so friendly and full of joy great for a getaway with kids:)

Beautiful hotel with beautiful staff working and an amazing beach highly recommend anyone visiting Tunisia to come to this hotel, I would come back again for sure . 2 weeks of bliss and knowing your well looked after if need anything. Kids really enjoyed it here, foods been incredible, lots of choice. Ice creams really good quality . Food is plentiful and chefs are so great fully interact with you and really great fun. Tunisian people are one of the nicest people I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and I’d love to come back to this beautiful country

Arrived on the 14th at 2am… check in was quick and were asked if we want the trolley boy but we were tired and wanted to go to the room and have a brew. Upon entering, there was no water or kettle. The beds were filthy with sand or grit on them. There was food on the floor, the bathroom smelt of urine and everywhere was thick with dust. Went to reception and told them but being the time they probably couldn’t be bothered and sent us on our way with a bottle of water. We slept In the clothes we travelled in due to how filthy and greasy everything was. The next morning, we headed down to breakfast hoping that it was just a dream… There were no subbeds available. Sun bed wars is absolutely horrendous here so have to join the 7am rush to the beds. After spending the day at the beach, we headed back to the room, a kettle appeared and the room was no longer dusty, grimy and food swept up. We also thought the beds were changed but the same sheets were used all week. There was a rip in the sheet from day 1 so we had the same sheets on for 7 days. General thoughts about the room. Air con not the best. Just about cools the room. Have to collect your own water all the time. No mini bar in the room Cups for the room never changed appears to be sprayed with some cleaning spray which is not only gross but a danger if you drink from it with the chemicals in it. Glass cups never once changed. Wardrobe smells of urine. No milk provided, however can get it from reception. Food; Breakfast lack of fruit choices if you love melons then your fine. Fruit juices were just squash and often tasted watered down. Only decent thing about breakfast was the donuts Hotel is full of tennis players, at lunchtime it stank of sweat puts you off eating. Lunch: some choice, not amazing. Served Luke warm water and coke just what you want when it’s 37 degrees outside. Dinner: absolute sh*t show half the time, they are run ragged and often spoke loudly at by managers. 2 waiters were very helpful at the backend of the restaurant the others did not want to know. Food was varied, same stuff each day some form of meat, pasta, pizza, picky bits. Noticed themed dinners but the theme didn’t really match up to the food. Deserts were mostly the same. Staff: Entertainment team are very energetic, possibly the only reason the hotel is still alive. One of them though likes to mutter Arabic at you in an insulting manner. Expected in the Middle East. Bar staff: one guy in the auditorium walks around collecting glasses and ignores you all the time. How does one expect to be tipped if you ignore or just have a general look of disgust. Odd character. Pool bar: again, long queues to the bar. Plastic cups often cracked so your drink ends up everywhere. Cups seemed to be rinsed out quickly in the sink and given to holiday makers. Not only disgusting but dangerous. You could tell since the cups were always sticky and when they ran out of cups they’d pick two up and you can hea
