Reviews of Thlassa Village, Skanes

We had a brilliant two weeks at Thlassa Village. The food was excellent, although we were let down badly by the restaurant waiters. The entertainment staff looked after us wonderfully. The bar staff did their best but there just wasn't enough of them to cope. The hotel was exceptionally clean and our maid was lovelly. The beach could have been raked over and cleaned a bit better, but the sea was shallow and warm with safe swimming areas marked out. The hotel is a 20 min taxi ride from anywhere, so be prepapred to pay to leave or stay and use the hotel's facilities - tennis, mini-golf, archery, pool games, etc.
The only real disappointment with the holiday was the trips organised by First Choice - they were definintly not as described in the leaflet and therefore became an expensive waste of time. I was also disappointed with the pedicure I received in the hotel Spa. Despite these few niggles, I would recommend this resort to anyone who just wants to lie by the pool and do nothing much for a couple of weeks.

i have just come back from the best week of my life, the hotel has got to be the greatest one i have ever stayed in, me and my friend 20 & 21 love it, the bar staff was great and the entertainment staff have give us a week of laughs dancing and fun british only nights. The maid service was wel beyond expectation and the food was out of this world, the comments on here about is al beef put me off but i had 2 go and see. There is sumthing for everybody fish lamb chicken pizza chips veg u name it they have it, the beach has loadz of activities and everybody is always avalible 2 help. I would recommend al the excursion i didnt have time in a week but the quad bikes and the boat trip were amazing. We had a problem the first day we had no hot water we went 2 reception which was a 2min walk away and before we got back the maintance man was jus leaving they have everything done at top speed. I loved it that much i am going back in march 09 with my mom, kids adults and oap, id tell u please go and experiance the greatest holiday yet, i loved it along with all the other holiday makers. Let me no if you go x x

I totally agree with what has been said about Thalassa Village Skanes. My Husband, our 16 year old daughter,my Sister and myself spent two weeks there from 22nd June this year. We enjoyed it that much we have just booked to go there again next June for two weeks. This time our son daughter-in-law and grandson are coming with us.

We too went in taxis to Sousse and we were only charged 10 Dinar we then got a taxi to Port el kantoui from Sousse and was only charged 4 Dinar.

We thought the staff were brill, so helpful and friendly.

The animation team were fab, just a few of them were off handish with the English they prefered the Germans and the French.

We had some good laughs with, Makram, Fauzi and Elle.

Amir was just one of a kind, he was a real star



I for one wouldreccommend Thalassa Village to Everyone

Happy Holidays

What a wonderful place. Wife booked the holiday for our honeymoon. we plus our 5yr old daughter loved the place. For adults there was the beach, pools, bars plus sports mini golf, archery and tennis. There was a kids club that ran every morning and afternoon which you could either leave your children there or stay and enjoy watching them in what ever activities were layed on that day.



In the early evenings there was always a kids disco which they where actively encouraged to join in but not forced to if they didn't want to which run until 8-30ish. Adult entertainment was excellent, most nights there was music or a show in the main open air bar plus in the main indoor bar most nights there was shows which where excellently performed and the singing was great to.



The only complaint i could find was the restaurant. The food was excellent but limited on variety, mainly chicken or fish. The sweets/puddings you may find yourself going back for seconds. If you want burger and chips, there is a small restaurant down near the beach but get there early, as it does get quite busy and you could end up waiting upto 30+ minutes for your food. There are 2 other restaurants on site but these must be booked a couple of days in advance.



The staff are continually ensuring that the place is clean and tidy from sun up, to sun down and your rooms are well looked after and cleaned.



There is a small shop on site. A gift/mini convenience, prices a little higher than local shops in monastir but you get that holidaying in England. The owner is a funny chap, who you can have a laugh and chat with if you so wish. if you wish to buy any of his items in the gift shop. especially jewellery, haggle.



What ever you do, take a trip by taxi to Sousse. Look around the bazaar, you will get pestered by the locals to buy from them but thats there way of life and can be fun. There is also a government department store, where you can buy leather bags, rugs and more, which are made in tunisia and are quality items. Watch out for street sellers that say that they know you from the hotel, they dont. as you are on an all enclusive holiday, they recognise the rist band you have on.



Would i go back, yes. its one of the most enjoyable and relaxing holidays i have ever had.

MY HUSBAND AND I AND OUR 12YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WERE HERE SIMPLY THE BEST HOLIDAY YET EVERYBODY WAS FRIENDLY AND HELPFULL THE FOOD WAS FRESH AND A VARIETY OF IT PEOPLE WERE MOANING ABOUT SUNBEDS BUT WHEN WE WERE THERE THEY BROUGHT 200 MORE BEDS IN THE WEATHER WAS HOT WE WENT TO THE ANIMAL PARK ZULU NIGHT IT WAS AMAZING INFACT WE LOVED OUR STAY SO MUCH WE ARE GOING BACK IN 11 WEEKS ALL THE STAFF WERE FRIENDLY AND HELPFULL I FELT LIKE ROYALTY WHEN I WAS THERE 10 OUT OF 10 TO ALL THE STAFF EVEN THE REP

My family and I went to Thlassa Village and we found it to be the best holiday we have had for a long time.

We had a late flight in but once through the airport and on the coach the transfer to the hotel was only 10 minutes, on arrival there was a form to fill in but we found that the restaurant was still open so we could eat and have time to fill in the arrival form.

All the staff were very pleasant and helpfull, once in our chalet( Thlassa village is not a hotel but chalet`s set around gardens) we found the accomodation clean and well laid out.

The food is well prepared and presented ( if you want an english breakfast you will have to settle for omlette or fried eggs) but hey try something different, the watiers are very good and will keep you suppiled with drinks at lunch and in the evening.

The whole complex is kept very clean with 3 pools (one heated indoor) the main bar in the entertainment room, 3 outdoor bars (one by the beach) a small games arcade, shop, tv room, internet acess in the reception area and 2 alternatine restaurants (that need to be pre booked) a night club (that is part of your all inclusive and open till 2am)

The entertainment team are wonderfull and work hard all day and night with games and sports during the day and entertaining shows at night (look for Amir he leads the team and is absolutly brilliant)



There is a seperate entertainment area for the very young children with its own small pool, slides and swings etc and a baby sitting service if you need it

The beach is clean and patrolled by the police on horseback to keep the traiders away there is also wind surfing and dingys part of your all inclusive



Try the first choice excursions we went on the bedouin feast, the camel trek and the trip to Monastir, port el cantouie and sousse they give you a feel of the tunisian culture and a look at some of the places you may want to visit for longer

If you want to go anyware you have to take a taxi 10 dinar for 4 to Monastir, 17 dinar for 4 to el cantouie remember to make sure you are paying for everyone not individuly

We found a mix of french, english, german and scottish! staying here dont be a snob mix in and have some fun.

We would recommend this hotel anyone go see enjoy.
