"We stayed in June 2026 and we learned that new ownership / management had just opened the month prior following a renovation / spruce up.
Having had the privilege to stay in some nice hotels over the years, this one stands out as my all-time favorite. The grounds are stunning and large amidst a rather dense resort town. Proximity to center of Forte was great — we typically walked (15 mins), but we did use the on demand shuttle service which never took more than 5 minutes from when we called.
You can tell every last element of the hotel’s decor and design was carefully curated with a nostalgic nod to Italian design and culture - the result is understated 5-star elegance.
We stayed in a deluxe room which was beautiful, impeccably clean, and spacious. Bathroom was stunning, large and functional (great water pressure). Bed was A+. Large balcony.
We spent a lot of time at the pool which was beautifully set amongst the landscape and equipped with ample comfortable loungers lined with lush towels. The bar / restaurant next to the pool served tasty drinks and food.
In addition to the staff’s warmth and kindness, they all took pride in their work. It was our first trip abroad with our 6 month old, and we notified the hotel just before arriving that we would need a crib — we arrived to the room and a beautiful, photoshoot worth crib awaited. The staff was so accommodating in making sure we had everything we needed for our baby.
Already figuring out when we can come back."
