We loved the condo and the Portofino resort. Condo looked like pictures. Beautiful view of the bay. Saw some dolphins from the balcony. Had a few questions about the condo and they were handled immediately. We loved our week!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you loved our condo and the Portofino resort. It's fantastic that you enjoyed the beautiful view of the bay and even spotted some dolphins from the balcony! We're glad that any questions you had were addressed promptly. Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon for another enjoyable stay!
The condo was very clean and spacious. It was perfect for our family of 5. We watched dolphins in the sound from the balcony each day. I like that the unit is located in the quieter area of Pensacola Beach. September is perfect for beaching!
We really enjoyed our time in 1805 to 5. The only thing I would say that needs attention is the shower in the master bedroom. It’s missing one side of the vinyl stripping to keep water inside the shower. Every time we shower there would be water all over the floor. Second the valve in that shower needs attention. I’m not sure if the cartridge needs to be replaced or the entire valve, but it was impossible to get hot water.

We are so sorry to hear that there were challenges with your stay and wish we would have been contacted during your stay, as we would have worked quickly to resolve. We strive to deliver a 5-star experience and wish we had been given the opportunity to address the issues during your stay, rather than find out about them after the fact. That said, we appreciate you mentioning them now so we can act before our next guests check in as we have not heard this from previous guests.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you had an amazing stay. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another enjoyable stay!
