Restaurants and Bars

Forte Village is justly renowned for the variety and number of restaurants on offer. Depending on the type of accommodation booked, you will have restaurants designated for each meal. For breakfast, the restaurant cannot be changed. For dinner, you may dine at your designated restaurant without prior reservation, or you can choose to dine at other restaurants, most of which require only a prior reservation, although a few require reservation and the payment of a supplement. All drinks are payable locally. For lunch you may choose between excellent pizzas, cooked in a wood-burning oven at the Pizzeria, tasty snacks at the Beachcomber, Rocce or Oasis, or a variety of pasta dishes at the Pasta House. The Resort also features a number of bars, which stay open until late at night; the Gelateria next to the Lungomare bar, serves its own delicious ice cream and pastries. In the evenings you may choose to spend your time either in the Discotheque or the Piano Bar.

During high season, a variety of specialist restaurants are also available. Please note however that these open and close at the Management's discretion; prior reservation is required and all drinks are payable locally.

 

Oasis: Breakfast at the Oasis is a generous self-service buffet, taken on the terraces by the swimming pools.

Pineta/Colosseo: These are highly enjoyable restaurants. The Pineta is a delightful open-air restaurant, but in the unlikely event of rain, dining takes place in the Colosseo, which is covered. Both offer a vast buffet and a variety of hot and cold dishes, roasts and Sardinian specialities. (Half a bottle of house wine per person and mineral water are included).

Torre Grill (Steak House): Romantically lit at night by the lights of the Oasis pool, it offers tasty grilled meats and a wide selection of salads.

Bellavista: Situated by the beach with splendid views of the sea, this table d'hote restaurant offers a superb variety of food delicacies.

Cavalieri: Elegant buffet-style dining, usually "al fresco" under a wonderfully lit canopy of pines, accompanied by a small orchestra.

Belvedere: Award-winning, elegant roof top restaurant, renowned for its "a la carte” menu, fine choice of wines and service.

Le Dune: This award-winning restaurant, located on the beach overlooking the sea, offers a rich and varied "a la carte" menu. Situated in a romantic setting, it is the ideal place for a refined, special, candlelit dinner.

Note: a) Half a bottle of house wine and mineral water are included only at the Pineta and Colosseo restaurants.

b) All restaurants are open at the management's discretion and designated restaurants may change.

c) The children's restaurant opens daily from 12.00 to 13.00 and from 18.00 to 19.00 hours.

All facilities are subject to weather conditions and may be limited in early and late season. Forte Village Resort is continually developing and evolving and some changes may occur and vary between seasons. The resort is also used for conventions and conferences in low and mid season.

 

Thaermae del Forte

Perhaps one of the most advanced Thalassotherapy centres in Europe, the Thaermae is set in an exclusive oasis, surrounded by a lush tropical garden. Guests may avail themselves of the Thalassotherapy spa, consisting of 6 heated seawater pools, enriched with minerals. Guests may also use the large gymnasium, equipped with latest state-of-the-art Techno-gym machines, Pilates, sauna and Turkish bath, with highly qualified professional masseurs. A team of specialists can, if required, and after an examination in the medical centre, formulate a personalised programme just for you. The Thaermae has its own beauty centre, hairdresser and beauty salon, as well as its own bar, serving fresh juices and herbal teas. A day pass for the Centre costs about €90. The pass does not cover the treatments available.

 

What to wear

Casual, informal wear is recommended during the day. In the evenings you may wish to dress more formally (shorts and bermudas are not permitted in the restaurants at dinner). During spring and autumn evenings can be cool, so warmer garments are advisable.
