Dezoito do Forte Holidays from £1,248

Wow what a hotel! Having a private pool on the balcony it's not something that I've experienced before, but I could easily get used to it! The staff at the hotel were simply amazing too and I really appreciated the effort they went to in decorating my room with the birthday package for my girlfriend's birthday; she was blown away by it :-) The food in the restaurant was great, although it (and the bar) is not open every night which was a shame. The location is also fantastic; it's a little further walk from the boat than other hotels but I liked how it was away from the crowds, but still with bars and restaurants mere seconds walk away & the centre of Morro de Sao Paulo still only 10mins walk. I highly recommend walking round to the 4th beach too - it's simply stunning!

The room was clean and in excellent condition, with beverages available all day in the minibar. The hotel itself was very clean and well-maintained.The Signature pool was fantastic, and the quality of the beverages there was excellent (Grey Goose and other premium options). The beach service for Signature guests was also very good. In general, the food throughout the resort was very good.Minor complaints:The food at the beach and pool bars was only average. However, you can always go to the beach buffet or the main resort buffet if you want something more substantial. It was difficult to get a table at the à la carte restaurants more than once. The concierge tried hard to help us, so I can’t complain about their effort, but it seemed the restaurants were not operating at full capacity — there were many empty tables every night across all shifts. Overall, it’s a great place and I would recommend it.

Beautiful place with gorgeous gardens and great pool area. Morro de São Paulo is a wonderful island with lots options for all ages! I will definitely go back and highly recommend.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent restaurant and comfortable room.
