I had to pull out due to hip surgery. The host was no help. She wasn’t flexible enough for us to explain what had happened. All we wanted was to come later on this year. She wasn’t flexible enough more interested in keeping our money than working with us. We will never use this hoast again!
Beautiful condo, well furnished with amazing views. It had everything we needed, very comfortable. It was located in the tower closest to the main pools and restaurant which made it very convenient. This is a great place to stay!
Everything described in the VRBO add was spot on! Only recommendation is to bring beach towels. The location is so nice and quiet. The sunset view was exceptional! We had 2 mishaps and the owner was a phone call away and right on top of fixing the problem immediately. I would stay here again most definitely!

Beautiful and clean condo! Owner was great to work with. Really enjoyed our stay. The resort was amazing!
Condo was wonderful, had everything we needed, clean, staff very friendly. Location was great, away from crowds, but not too far away from attractions. Would love to stay here again in the future! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home away from home with us!!
Wonderful weekend enjoying the last of summer and welcoming the first chill of fall. Clean, lovely condo with a ton of amenities natural and manmade. Would stay again.
A nice unit, comfortable master bed, fairly well equipped kitchen for cooking, tower 2 provides easy access to the property amenities, the one improvement I would suggest is more drawer space in the master.
We absolutely loved our stay here! Wonderful water views from every room & plenty of space. The 16th floor views were stunning! While it was spring break week, the resort didn’t feel overly crowded. Portofino is one of our favorite vacation spots and we will definitely be renting this condo again! Thank you for a fantastic stay!
The place was amazing. Just as advertised except for the views. Pictures cannot do it justice. We watched the sunsets from the balcony. Great resort. We will definitely come again.
