Delicious food, very comfortable room, amazing amenities area. The pool without any kind of animation is the best! Very calm and suitable for relaxing!

Terrible experience. Check-in was a total mess for 7 people and 4 rooms. 86 year old placed on a third floor of a building without an elevator. Had to argue to make them correct it. Actually none of the buildings in this Resort are accessible. None of them have elevators although this place was build in 2008 (no excuses that it’s an old property). Distances between rooms, restaurants, pools and lobby are huge, paved with irregular pavers. Wheelchairs are impossible to use due to the irregular surfaces. Internal golf cart system to transport elderly people is offered but waiting times were so long that we gave up using it. Signage providing directions throughout the property are almost non-existent. Impossible to know where you have to go to get to your building. Dozens of people lost throughout the property every day, begging for directions, totally frustrated. Majority of the staff doesn’t seem to be happy, although very few exceptions were very attentive and supportive.
App that is highly recommend by the staff upon check-in is useless. Scheduling of Resort activities is never updated and internal map directions are also outdated. I learned that it doesn’t work because Spain is responsible for keeping it updated, so any local changes to activities have to be informed to Spain by email before they can update the App. Note: Spain is 5 hours ahead in time zone. Total non-sense.
Pools were really good and food and drinks abundant and of good quality. I’ll never go back.

Os quartos são excelentes, grandes, bem estruturados, com ótima cama, varanda, ar-condicionado, banheiro amplo com banheira e chuveiro separado.
Os restaurantes e comida são muito bons.
As piscinas são ótimas, salinizadas e parecem ser inclusive climatizadas, trazendo um ambiente extremamente gostoso. Foi uma das melhores experiências que tive em resorts. A nossa preferida era a próxima ao grande logo do Iberostar, pois era extremamente calma e perto do restaurante Maresias.
As copas do bebê nos atenderam muito bem, todo dia buscávamos as papinhas prontas (caseiras ou industrializadas) e esterilizávamos as mamadeiras.

O hotel é muito lindo e a toda a estrutura é muito boa e bem cuidada. As equipes são bem gentis e muito solícitas, salvo um ou outro menos gentil. O que me impressionou negativamente foram as refeições e a organização da cozinha

Nossa experiência no Iberostar Selection Praia do Forte foi memorável. A infraestrutura é impecável, com piscinas e áreas de lazer de alto padrão. A alimentação All Inclusive é excelente em variedade e qualidade. O SPA excepcional, e as atividades são muito bem organizadas.
No entanto, o ponto mais alto foi o atendimento da equipe. Destacamos o instrutor de tênis Jacaré, que é carismático e atencioso. No Restaurante Pelô, as garçonetes Alana Alves e Laise nos trataram com uma simpatia e cuidado excepcionais. Recomendamos e, certamente, voltaremos no futuro.
La habitación es espaciosa y cuenta con minibar. La cama es muy cómoda como también las almohadas. El baño debiera tener una doble bacha por tratarse de un hotel 5 estrellas.
El servicio de playa está bien, aunque las reposteras están muy juntas.

Refrigerante na maquina.
Nao tem agua mineral no quarto. Vc tem que encher garrafa de vidro nos bebedores fora do hotel.
Foi nossa 6x no hotel! Vamos desde 2010! Amo quasar tudo, os pontos negativos q precisam melhorar são : os vinhos tintos (mto ruins), a animação caiu a qualidade, está mto inferior e desanimada, antes tinha roda d samba, mais música ao vivo, shows maravilhosos.., a animação empobreceu total … as músicas da piscina prescisam parar d fazer apologia ao PT ( não somos petistas e mto triste ouvir as músicas do faz O L, implantar uma cultura petista é complicado e não pode ocorrer em hotéis) ! O bar molhado precisa de mais funcionários !
Experiência incrível!
Do início ao fim. Comida maravilhosa, principalmente, o café da manhã. Bares espalhados por toda área, com bebidas diversas. Atendimento excelente. Quarto impecável.
Enfim, voltarei várias vezes, se Deus quiser!
Tudo funciona MUITO bem! Parabéns ao time do Iberostar! Perfeito para crianças bebês, menores e adultos! A infra é perfeita para os pequenos. A Experiência é desenhada no cuidado para os baixinhos. Parabéns!! E todos os problemas que tivemos, foram incrivelmente solucionados muito rápido (tudo via aplicativo e sem enrolação)
Muito bom o hotel porém algumas coisas poderiam ser diferente
Ter limite de restaurantes pra reserva
Não ter disponibilidade pra reserva
Limpeza do quarto bem razoável
Sorvetes não são bons e sempre derretidos
Um milhão de doces porém nenhum bom
Comidas para se sentir satisfeito
Porém não pra degustar
Não tem nada saboroso de verdade
Tudo impecável. Funcionários mto educados e profissionais, tudo mto limpo e bonito, comida farta, diversificada e deliciosa, bebidas excelentes. Entregam o que prometem.
