Forte Village offers a choice of three 4-star hotels: Hotel Bouganville (the refurbished Il Villaggio), Le Palme and Il Borgo as well as five 5-star hotels: Royal Pineta, Hotel Castello, Hotel Villa del Parco and Hotel Le Dune.
Family room types can be prohibitively expensive are not spacious at the Forte Village and therefore for families we recommend the Bouganville and Le Palme Bungalows for a great location close to the pools, restaurants and the Piazza plus good value family accommodation.

Customer Name: Melanie Matzinger
Departure Date: 09/06/2018
Highlights:
Amazing food, very nice and spacious rooms, good childcare, transport was flawlessly organised.
Advice:
Location is quite isolated, e.g. no possibility to go for a stroll around a close by town/village without using a car. Also, the resort does not have a shop where you could buy little snacks like chocolate/crisps or any other food… So, for lunch you have to use one of their bars/restaurants or room service, which all have a very limited selection of small snacks or sandwiches.
