Tui Blue Manar

We are currently here as 6 adults and 2 children with 2 days left and have had a fabulous stay. The pools are fantastic with many options such as activity pool, flumes and quiet pools so something for everyone. The high ropes are fab and the kids also has fun at the kids club. We really enjoyed the beach party and foam parties. The food is great the italian night with the fresh made pasta is a must and even some of the fussy eaters in our group have really enjoyed the food. The staff are fantastic they go out of their way to chat and be friendly and Rafiq who was the security on the beach was always so welcoming and brought sweets each day for the kids. We also visited some shops outside, although there isnt much right outside there are a few shops which sell the usual gifts. Uncle Morris in the onsite shop along with the other man are supper friendly. Lots of great beach activities at fab prices and we also got a taxi to Bella Marina Restaurant food was brill. You will have a great holiday. This definetly wont be our last time visiting tunisia.

Amazing holiday. Me and my family were here from 3rd June to 10th June. We wish we had booked longer as we had the best time and didn’t want to come home. There was 13 of us which included a 5year old and 9 & 13 year old and would say was something for everyone. We would like to thank all the Tui team especially Brown & Boabo. Absolute grafters who are very good at their jobs. My daughter loved their dancing skills. Also to the waiter that would have our table set outside every night for us, being 13 of us was nice we could sit together. The cleaner was very good too he would do creative things to our room every day. One of the days we had towel swans on our bed kids loved it. Lifeguards round the main pool also made our holiday they were interactive with the kids and didn’t mind a having water fights with the kids. Water slides also really good fun for the kids and adults. Food was lovely something for everyone. Omelettes at breakfast were lovely and the lady making them was always so happy and nice to chat too she is opposite where the croissants are. We had an early flight home and the breakfast area is opened up early with a small choice but such a lovely touch this is done. A la carte is worth booking you get one visit to it for free and the food was lovely and different to what is been served in the main restaurant. If you struggle to book on the app go to the Tui rep she booked this for us as it just kept saying it was full. Pilates class was very good, thank you Chiheb. Water sports - our family tried all the water sports and if you like these activities definitely worth doing. We paid in English money. £10 per person for most of the water sports, jet ski was around £40. Thank you for making our holiday the best, we would recommend and we would look to come back. Clair x

Excellent from the day we arrived. Our waiter Mohanned was incredibly helpful and couldn’t do enough for us as with the other restaurant staff. The life guard at the quiet pool is not only a character but extremely helpful and friendly. The bar staff in the lobby are great and the rooms were cleaned every day to an exceptional standard. There’s plenty of entertainment for the kids, water slides are great fun and the beach is clean and very safe. The reception staff can’t do enough to help with any issues. We’re still here for another 2 days and really wish we’d booked 2 weeks. The only thing o would say is avoid the pirate ship. We had a bad experience with the transfers too and from the hotel and the food on board was awful. I hope the restaurant guys get this feedback because they are absolutely fantastic and really make you feel special.

This was our 5th Tui Blue holiday and it did not disappoint. Great hotel, we had a lovely sea facing family room. Adults in a double bed in the bed room, kids on 2 singles in the lounge area. Kids are 9 and 7 and they said it was the best holiday yet. Friendliest staff ever - my kids kept commenting on how nice the people in Tunisia were - but we must give a special mention to the lovely restaurant team who were so helpful and efficient. Food was delicious and so much variety and choice every day. Pools were great, kids had so much fun in them and on the slides. Great choice of other activities for the kids - tried our hand at tennis, table tennis, football and boules, and the kids did the high ropes (these cost extra). Beach ‘white’ party on the Saturday night was great fun. Would definitely recommend.

This was our 4th visit to the Manar. We have have stayed when it was a Holiday Village, as a Magic Hotel and it has now rebranded as TUI Blue. We stay as a family with 2 kids and my older parents. We had 2 kids den (quadruple) main building rooms. The hotel has been freshened up since last year and the rooms were freshly painted, very clean on arrival and kept clean throughout. Sheets changed several times. There is a minibar in the room and water and milk are provided. Soft drinks and beer could be provided at extra cost but we just fetched from the bar as needed. The coffees and hot chocolate from the main bar were great. Fruit plates and nuts are brought to the room in various days. The food this year was excellent- definitely revamped and stepped up since last year. Lots of fresh grilled meat and fish, a kids selection, great desserts and fresh fruit. Breakfast included plenty of fresh cooked options. The snack bar and sandwich bar during the day were great and the Baia a la carte was a superb meal, with upgraded wine and lovely service. Service in the main restaurant from Helmi was excellent as always. The new cocktail menu included some nice options and the payable cocktails were a nice treat from time to time. Beer wine and spirits on all inclusive were good. My kids (7 and 11) both loved the kids club and the TUI staff doing that, the activities and the mini disco were lovely friendly people. We didn’t stay up for the evening entertainment so can’t comment. There was live music at the pool in the afternoons, some better than others. Having the TUI Blue guides in the hotel every day made sure that any small issues (a problem with air con, booking a table) were dealt with so quickly and easily. Nora and Safa were so helpful. The Spa team is excellent with a wonderful Ayurvedic massage costing £50. There is no hard sell from the Spa staff but they will help you find the right package for you. I would definitely recommend as it made for a wonderful holiday relaxation treat. The kids loved the high ropes and my eldest was able to do parascending on the beach which he loved. The rebrand has made the vibe of the hotel feel a bit more up market than previous years and the staff are clearly under high expectations from TUI to meet the brand requirements. They all go above and beyond to Make your holiday the best it can be. I hope TUI recognise that the staff at Manar are their greatest asset.
