Portofino Island Resort offers stunning views and a range of family activities, making it a great choice for a beach vacation. However, some guests reported issues with supplies in the kitchen and dated furnishings in certain units. The swimming pools and beach access are definitely highlights, but be prepared for some noise from large groups during peak times.

My recent stay at the resort had its ups and downs. The beautiful views from the condo were certainly a highlight. However, I was quite disappointed with the cleanliness of the unit and the overall level of maintenance. The staff was helpful but fell short in certain areas. Overall, it's a mixed bag with some redeeming qualities, but it could definitely be improved.

Our stay at the resort was a mix of highs and lows. The picturesque setting by the beach and spacious room made it enjoyable, but we faced some cleanliness issues and unprofessional behavior from a resident that detracted from our experience. While the amenities offered a lot of recreational options, the dining options nearby were quite limited, which was disappointing.

The Portofino Island Resort offers a stunning range of amenities, from beautiful pools to engaging water sports, making it an ideal choice for an active family vacation. However, some issues with customer service and inconsistencies with room descriptions from what was shown online dampened the overall experience.
