We have just come back from our holiday in Hotel Oceana. We were looking for a stylish and quiet hotel and after reading many reviews on the Internet and getting some feed back from a travel agent we decided to choose this hotel. The hotel doesn't organize transfers from the airport so we had to organize it ourselves but we... more

We stayed at the Oceana Riu hotel in February and chose it because it had plenty of indoor activities as well as the outdoor things for summer. It has a good location right on the beach, good for windswept winter walks as well as summer sunbathing. The hotel was very warm in winter, the adjustable heating meant that you were... more

Just returned from Tunisia where we stayed at the Riu palace oceana, this is a first class hotel with fantastic facilities and some of the friendliest staff we have ever encountered. All staff could speak at least basic english and most were fluent english speakers, the two lads at the main bar lounge were so fluent they could do regional... more

I've been to Palace Oceana this January for 3 days. At this time of the year forget about beach, the temperatures are low although the sun is always shining. The hotel was like a base point to discover the north of Tunisia. And it was a very good choice. Likely this summer it will be my choice for a relax/sun... more

We stayed here for a week before Christmas. I am extremely fussy and I thought this was a beautiful hotel. It was very quiet, and we had a super time. The spa is lovely and the treatments were absolutely superb. The food was also really good. Best of all were the incredibly friendly hotel staff, from the cleaners to the... more

Had a really lovely week at the Oceana. It was exactly what we had hoped for and more than we had expected: the room had plenty of space for all luggage and clothes in a separate dressing area; two LARGE towelling robes for strolling around the pool area and down to the beach; clean as a whistle; excellent water pressure... more

We were originally at Le Hammamet. Our helpful rep Hasna asked us, why did you come here? Pot luck I suppose. Our first trip to Tunisia. The place was full of miserable French people and the food was disgusting. Hasna suggested that we moved to Oceana. This cost us £600, but it was worth it. The staff were happy and... more

My parnter & I were very impressed with all aspects of the hotel. The Staff were great, restaurant staff couldn't have been more welcoming and pleased to help. Dont miss the afternoon mint tea by the pool. Entertainment was ok. But we never went for that, for us it was a week all about sitting and relaxing by the pool... more

A nice hotel, however you really need to be able to speak French or Arabic. Staff at the hotel have very limited English, although they are all very friendly. Food is fantastic, poolside is a nice size and clean. Beach is good, although you do get hassled buy the local market traders. Beware of the prices and check the bill.... more
