The hotel is set within a beautiful pine forest and surrounded by attractive, verdant gardens, offering a quiet paradise with all of the facilities and attractions of the wider resort. It is also adjacent to the Acquaforte SPA, with a unique circuit of pools for thalasso therapy, often regarded as the most powerful natural detox.
The hotel is a member of Leading Hotels of the World, so its luxurious style and impeccable service is guaranteed.
The dining options at Villa del Parco & SPA are exquisite, with the opportunity to dine in the impressive Belvedere restaurant, one of the hotel’s finest, without a supplement. Awarded its first Michelin star in 2014, Belvedere is operated by chef Antonello Arrus, who dreams up creative Italian and Sardinian menus with a twist, like Sardinian fregola pasta served with fresh seafood and a hint of saffron. With its location on the hotel’s terrace with views out to sea and over the pine groves, Belvedere is a romantic spot for dinner. Sumptuous breakfasts are served in the informal Patio Restaurant, but you’ll also have the choice of an upscale Italian restaurant, an expansive buffet and a grill without reservation. You’ll also be able to book a further four restaurants in advance, and pay a supplement to dine at any of the other restaurants in the resort.
Accommodation at Villa del Parco is set within luxurious bungalows, with plenty of indoor and outside space and elegant sleeping areas. Perfect for families, you also have the choice of booking adjoining bungalows so that everyone in the family gets their own space.

Bouganville was named after the bougainvillea plant that grows abundantly across the island of Sardinia – visit throughout the summer months and you’ll see great tumbling plants covered with flowers in all shades of pink, fluttering in the sea breezes. Bouganville’s beautifully manicured gardens are full of the flowers, plus a host of glorious greenery that makes for stunning views from the low-rise bungalows.
Forte Village is set on a 116-acre plot and is designed to look like a traditional village, made up of several hotels of which Bouganville is the newest. Staying in the resort affords access to the wide range of facilities and activities on offer, including watersports, children’s play areas and the extremely luxurious spa.
Bouganville is especially suited to families, with a top-notch location in the heart of the resort that’s close to both the swimming pools and the spa. Accommodation is set in family-friend bungalows, with the option of extra beds and separate living and sleeping spaces, so every family member gets their own space and privacy. All the comforts have been thought of, with luxurious touches and outside space in the form of elegant furnished patio areas – some with kids’ play kit. Larger families can opt for adjacent bungalows with the ability to interconnect for a seamless experience.
The 116-acre plot that makes up the famous Forte Village Resort in Sardinia is famous for its incredible array of activities, and if you want to make the most of these whilst also getting the chance to relax and recharge frazzled batteries then Le Dune might just be the choice for you. Set towards the rear of the resort away from prying eyes and noisy families, with an infinity pool, Le Dune (which is family friendly) is a haven of tranquillity amid the mock-Sardinian village.
Set within lush tropical foliage to screen it from the rest of the resort, Le Dune has one of the best spots on the coast with the beach and the facilities just a short stroll away. Submerged in the verdant gardens, Le Dune blends in with the rest of the resort and looks like a small, traditional (albeit well cared-for) Sardinian village, with walkways lined in Mediterranean plants and parrots living in the trees. Buildings are low-slung and inconspicuous, hiding just 43 smart, elegant bungalows and suites.
If you can drag yourself away from your whirlpool bath, expansive terrace and sumptuous bed there are plenty of things to keep you occupied. The resort is home to 21 different restaurants during high season serving everything from Sardinian classics to Asian dim sum, 11 bars and a plethora of activities to get your heart rate going. Don’t miss the spa whether you’re there to unwind or get fit – it’s sensational.
