The condo was very nice. It is a little drive to the downtown area. I liked the location of the condo, with the Gulf on one side and the bay on the other. The Gulf was crazy windy, but the bay was calm.
We had a wonderful stay at this unit/resort. The unit is clean, comfortable and is fully stocked to set you up for a great vacay! The property is close to downtown, but has everything you need if you don't want to leave. The amenities and service are top notch. We will definitely be back and would book this unit again.
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible VRBO in Portofino Resorts (Tower 2), and we cannot say enough wonderful things about it! From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the thoughtful decor, well-appointed amenities, and breathtaking views.The attention to detail in this home is truly exceptional. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need, making meal prep a breeze. The spacious seating areas made it easy to relax, and the large smart TVs in every room ensured that everyone had their own entertainment space. It was evident that the owners put a lot of care into creating a welcoming and comfortable environment—we truly felt like we were at a home away from home.Beyond the unit itself, the resort amenities were top-notch. The proximity to the pools, spa, and sauna made our stay feel even more luxurious. Waking up to those stunning views was the perfect way to start each day.I never take the time to write reviews, but this property was so special that I felt it was well-deserving. If you’re looking for the perfect getaway with all the comforts of home and the luxury of a resort, look no further—this is the place to book!
The host was easy and great to communicate with. The unit was clean, well stocked, and had comfy beds. We were very happy we chose this unit! We love tower 2 with its proximity to the lifestyle center and distance to beach.

Frustrated from the start
Unfortunately, our 4 o’clock check-in turned into 430. Parking place was taken by the cleaning lady who wasn’t finished with our place until 6 PM while we sat and watched. Because it was awkward she rushed to finish & didn’t do a great job. Paula (property manager) had to have the owner of the cleaning company come back for two more hours to clean the next day. It was only a five day trip and we spent the first day and a half trying to get the place cleaned properly. Property manager never apologized or showed empathy for the frustration. Never offered any kind of credit. The positives were the private pool was nice and the location overall was peaceful.
Very nice condo with beautiful views of the ocean and bay. Condo was clean and kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. Parking and check in process was easy. Great amenities with the gym, smoothie bar, coffee shop, spa, restaurant, and main pool looking over the bay side. Would recommend for families.
This was a great condo in the perfect location. We never had to leave as there were so many amenities. The balcony had beautiful views. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. Thank you!
Although the unpredictable March weather on the Gulf Coast was rather dismal during our stay, our family managed to make the most of our visit to Portofino Resort last week. The resort itself did not disappoint! We enjoyed our time at the main pool area and even had the opportunity to play tennis one afternoon. The facilities are impressive and very well maintained. Additionally, the walk and proximity to the beach is excellent. The unit itself was exactly as described - that's the reason we chose it. It was comfortably and tastefully appointed and provided us with exactly what we wanted for a relaxing extended weekend. We would not hesitate recommending this unit and this resort to any of our friends.
Great stay with my son and 2 other military aviator friends
Picked this location due to the list of amenities such as the upscale gym and pools. Paula was awesome and very helpful giving us other ideas of what was happening around the area that weekend. Thanks so much Paula! I passed along your message to the crew regarding their service. Much appreciated! :-)!
This was our first stay at Portofino Resort. The price was good, the place was well stocked and Paula was quick to respond. Quick walk to gulf or bay, as well as property pools, restaurants and fitness center. However, the condo is in need of a good deep cleaning. Also, we were not able to access secure wifi and had to use the resort's public wifi.
Property not clean and extremely poor commutation with host.
The property left several things to be desired. The sheets were filthy and had not been cleaned from the previous guests. When we reached out to the host to inform her we received a one sentence reply saying housekeeping was contacted. We never heard from housekeeping nor did anyone ever come and change out the dirty sheets that were filled with food, stains, hair, sand, and dirt. One of the beds we couldn’t sleep in because of the filth. The dishes in the cabinets were not clean and there were questionable stains on the couch. When we arrived the cleaners were there an hour past check in and were rushing and not cleaning thoroughly. The host offered us a late checkout because of the cleaners lateness but upon check out the front desk hadn’t heard anything from the host and had no idea about a late checkout. The communication with this host was almost non existent. We left feeling very disappointed with our stay and would never book here again nor would we ever recommend it.
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The pool was close and easy to access as well as the bay. Walking across the street to the ocean was very simple and completely beautiful. We loved the condo and had more than enough room for everybody. We ate most meals in the condo and had everything we needed. We spent a lot of time on the balcony. We loved being able to see the ocean, as well as the bay and the dunes. We would absolutely love to stay in this unit again.
We had a wonderful time. We loved the view of both the bay and gulf . The condo is beautifully decorated and we will surely book again . Highly recommend
The condo was perfect for our family vacation. It has amazing ocean and sound views from every room, was very clean, decorated beautifully and stocked with everything our family needed for luxury stay. The resort amenities were a bonus with very friendly and helpful staff. The balcony had beautiful ocean and sound views - one of our favorite things about the condo. Beaches are a few minutes from the tower. Would highly recommend and hope to rebook again next spring. On a side note, the on-site restaurant has gluten free options. Another bonus!
The property was so clean, great views, and perfect for our family who is a family of four with a 2 year old and 3 year old! The host was great with communication with any questions I had. We were very pleased and will definitely be staying here again!
