You are welcome to return, but things are filling up faster now that the summer is really here. You may want to go ahead and book again soon as we love having return guests, and would be bummed if we could not get you the dates you wanted because they are already booked. Anyway, we are very glad you liked it and are wanting to return.

Nice property. Main pool was a little expensive but each building has its own pool so that was nice. Condo fees were a bit harsh as you think itā€™s all included in the price you pay for the rental but they have more fees when you check inā€¦we were there for a week and it cost us an extra 215.00 on top of the week rental so be prepared for that. View was fantastic from the condo.
Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 8 May 2026
Hello. Hello. We are glad you enjoyed your stay despite those pesky resort fee add-ons. As you know, we do post about them in the listing because we do not want to be accused of hiding anything or springing extra costs on our guests, and as I like to explain, we are not making anything from those as they are required by Portofino. Similarly, the VRBO (or similar) fees also add a lot to the guestsā€™ total, so those fees are also decreasing the number of bookings we get, so understandably, we donā€™t like the fees at all either. Having said that, trying direct options have not been successful for us as no one finds our condo that way despite our efforts, and at least we do tend to get very good guests (like you) through these services, so VRBO (or similar) it is. Shifting gears, I am not certain what you meant by the main pool was a bit expensive as it IS included in those previously mentioned pesky resort fees. Did you mean the restaurant with the pool side meals? I canā€™t argue that. They also have their fancier restaurant, and being frugal myself I would say it is a little higher than I would like, BUT for a resort and not having to leave the grounds, or even the pool side, I think they keep it reasonable. (It is definitely more fairly priced than movie concessions or a baseball game mealā€¦..although I do still highly recommend checking out one of the weekend Blue Wahoo baseball games. (Stadium at the water so almost always a nice breeze and usually REAL fireworks afterward.))

From the well stocked kitchen. The new chairs on the balcony gave an amazing view to watching the fog roll in in the morning to the amazing sunsets at night. The grand babies enjoyed the great pools. And of course amazing beach. I stayed in this condo before and would highly recommend it. Thanks for the wonderful memories.
