Forte Village Resort - Il Castello

5th time back. The place is simply amazing. The hospitality, vibe, food. Kids love it and whilst this year they decided to skip the football camp and do some go-karting, they still were welcomed to the evening games. Special thanks to Valentina for looking after us during our stay. No ask was too small or big.

Our visit to Forte Village was excellent! We were upgraded to the Castello when we arrived and the room was spacious and clean. The activities were wonderful. The kids loved zooming around on bikes and going bowling and playing in the pools and at the beach. The food was excellent everywhere we went but our favorite dinner was at the forte grill. From the minute we arrived, Valentina took excellent care of us. She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome. She even got our son a special cake for his birthday! We are excited to come back again in the future!

We chose Il Castello to celebrate a combination of family events, and were so pleased we did. A truly exceptional hotel, and resort, in every way. We were a group of 10 -- 6 adults and 4 children aged from 3 - 10yrs - and we all had the most amazing time. There is something to do for every age. Never a dull moment The hotel (and garden bungalows) were really lovely. Clean, modern, spacious rooms. Restaurants were varied with a great food selection. The main buffet restaurant (Cavalieri) -for breakfast and dinner - was excellent. Great food at every meal, high quality and plenty of choices for all dietary requirements. Good wine selection and not too expensive. We also ate at the Dune snd Brazilian restaurants for dinner, as well as the Pizzeria and Tiki Beach club for lunches. Drinks at the Tiki Beach pre dinner were a must, with fabulous views of the beach and ocean. Clean, safe, white sandy beaches and crystal clear sea. The sports and activities available - for both adults and children - were amazing, our kids just loved every minute they spent in the kids club, various swimming pools and the water park. The only 'downside' to the main resort pool was that the water was freezing! But the Il Castello pool was heated so that was a bonus! Varied entertainment in the evening in the main square, as well as lots of shops for some retail therapy. . ALL of the staff we met, throughout the resort were exemplary - Incredibly professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Whilst I could mention many by name, I would like to particularly give extra sspecial thanks to Valentina Dessi (Garden Manager), who is exceptional and really looked after our family. Also, David (reception) and Fillippi (Cavalieri restaurant) - all of whom made our stay even more enjoyable. This hotel truly exceeded my expectations, and I really do hope that we will have an opportunity go back in the future.
