Reviews from Google“Certo! Ecco una recensione elegante e molto positiva in inglese: We had the pleasure of working with the reception team at Forte Village during one of our events, and the experience was absolutely outstanding. As an event organization agency, collaboration, flexibility, and responsiveness are essential for us, and the reception staff exceeded all expectations. Throughout the entire event, they were incredibly professional, attentive, and always available to support every request with efficiency and a genuine positive attitude. Their dedication, kindness, and problem-solving approach made a real difference and contributed greatly to the success of the event. It was truly a pleasure to work with such a well-organized and guest-oriented team. A special thank you to the entire reception staff for their exceptional support and hospitality. We highly recommend Forte Village and look forward to working together again in the future!”
“Our stay at Forte Village Resort was nothing short of exceptional, truly a five-star experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome. The reception team was warm and attentive, and the valet service was seamless and efficient. Being upgraded on arrival was a wonderful surprise. Our room was spacious, beautifully located, and set the tone for the rest of our stay. The welcome gift, while not expected, added a thoughtful and luxurious touch. That first evening, we dined at the buffet, and it far exceeded any expectations. The food was fresh and high-quality and offered an impressive variety far from the typical buffet experience. Returning to our room later to find it had been turned down was another delightful surprise and really demonstrated the attention to detail throughout the resort. One of the standout highlights of our stay was dinner at Ristorante Le Dune. Dining as a group of six, including two young children, we were blown away. The food was outstanding, beautifully prepared and full of flavour and easily one of the best meals we had during our time in Sardinia. What truly elevated the evening was the service. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, especially with our children. They struck the perfect balance of attentiveness without being intrusive, and everything ran effortlessly. It was a relaxed, memorable evening that we will certainly look forward to repeating. The kids' club deserves special mention and is an absolute credit to the resort. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and nurturing. Knowing our children were so well looked after gave us complete peace of mind. On one occasion, they even took the initiative to change our daughter after a small mishap. Such care and attention are rare and deeply appreciated. We also enjoyed a walk through the nature reserve, which was beautiful, though we were slightly disappointed that part of it, including the bird sanctuary, was closed during our visit. Dining continued to impress throughout our stay. The Sardinian restaurant was phenomenal, with impeccable food and truly heartfelt service. Our waitress made us feel as though we were guests in her home, taking the time to understand our preferences and even engaging thoughtfully with our children’s likes and dislikes. This level of genuine hospitality is something very special. The Brazilian restaurant was another highlight: fantastic food paired with warm, personal service once again. Our days were just as enjoyable as our evenings. The children loved spending time at the heated pool and grabbing pizza for lunch, while we appreciated the relaxed and family-friendly atmosphere. One morning, we enjoyed the beautiful beach while the children were happily occupied at the kids' club, which was peaceful, scenic, and perfectly maintained. We also took a trip to the nearby town of Pula on recommendation, and it was absolutely charming, with friendly locals and a lovely atmosphere. Forte Village Resort delivers an exceptional blend of luxury, warmth, and attention to detail. Every member of staff we encountered contributed to making our stay truly memorable. We would not hesitate to return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a world-class family holiday.”
“I stayed at Forte Village Castello and honestly it was just really, really nice. The food was one of the best parts. Nothing felt forced or over the top, just consistently good every time you sat down. Fresh, simple in the right way, and you actually look forward to meals. The setting is what makes it, though. Being right by the water, those views don’t get old. I found myself just walking a lot around the property, especially in the morning or before dinner. It’s one of those places where a walk actually feels like something you want to do, not just something to pass time. It’s just easy there. Relaxed, beautiful, and you don’t feel like you have to “do” anything to enjoy it.”
“The amenities, rooms, locations, and villas are absolutely stunning. However the most spectacular part of Forte Village is the staff. Everyone is so kind, attentive, and welcoming. They show true energy, passion, and commitment for what they do and they deserve more recognition. Thank you all for everything and I hope to visit again very very soon!”
“Great Easter holiday Very friendly staff Kids really enjoyed the kids club and heated kidspool There are bikes for rental and shuttle services (golf carts) throughout the resort but everything is at walking distance. We preferred the direct booking via the resorts' own site.”
