hi everyone

i was wondering if anyone could help me.

i normal go to eygpt on holiday in june time and love the heat and the standard of the hotels.

i'm looking to go to tunisia this year but was wondering what it is like?
temperatures in june? and hotels?

also which area to stay in? we don't want to do a lot just lie by the pool for the week and eat some nice food.

if anyone could help us out that would be great,
thanks

Hi well June should be very warm (alot warmer than mid Feb when i was there!!) Having only been to Tunisia once i can only recommend Hammamet and the Hotel Iberostar Phenicia but i would REALLY recommend this place its a huge modern all inclusive hotel (half-board is available) 2pools,right on its own private beach lots of actvities and water sports going on all day the place is spotless and very well maintained and the staff cant do enough for you.Please tip the waiters, bar staff and cleaners and i promise they will look after you.(1 Dinar=40p so it wont break the bank lol!)they work very long hours for very little money and always with a smile.If you do choose this hotel ill apologise in advance for the evening entertainment....its laughable but so funny to watch!. To say it's amateurish is being too kind but have a few drinks and you will hav a good laugh i promise!....oh and watch out for the bingo caller...highlight of the evening!! we got a cheap last min deal in mid feb 08 and paid �350 each AI so you can expect to pay more in June Whatever you do have a good hol

I totally agree with everything written by Woodster. The Phenicia is a superb hotel, particularly if you just want a quiet week as it's in a fairly remote area but taxis are available just outside the front grounds. We first visited the Phenicia for New Year 2006 and ejoyed it so much we went back again 5 months later at the end of May (weather much warmer!) I've found Iberostar hotels are equipped, decorated and staffed to a very high standard and in fact we are going to the Iberostar Chich Khan in Jasmmine Hammemet this July. Give the Phenicia a try - you won't be sorry.
