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 it’s all included in the price you pay for the rental but they have more fees when you check in…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.

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 guests’ total, so those fees are also decreasing the number of bookings we get, so understandably, we don’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 can’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 meal…..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.))
Absolutely worth every penny. The view from the balcony alone is worth it. Beautiful Penthouse Suite with a beautiful view. Assigned covered parking spot & 2 minute walk to the beach.
View was awesome and the beds are super comfy. Very spacious and the beach is very close. Everything was amazing! Great place.

We’re so glad you enjoyed the view, comfy beds, and how close everything is to the beach. It makes us happy to hear the space felt just right for you. You were a wonderful guest, and we’d be happy to host you again anytime!
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.

Beautiful Condo great view everything that you couldn’t want in the kitchen from corkscrew to potato peeler. I think the only thing we had to purchase was aluminum foil. Other than that they had everything it was just a great vacation and wonderful host.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
We are thrilled you got to experience the excellent views in person while grilling out on the porch. (I assume that is what the foil was for.)
We aim to have most all kitchen utensils, and have added to our collection over the years as guests point out convenience items we may have initially missed.
Keurig - Yep, Got one.😉
Well, Thanks again for being so thoughtful and taking such great care of our home.
We’d love to have you back!
it was a beautiful getaway with my family, we made great memories & couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! Highly recommend for anyone with a small family!

We really enjoyed all the options for outdoor activities.
Great location and property. Some small needs to upgrade the kitchenware, sheets, etc. Water pressure also a little underwhelming. But overall very clean and wonderful location.
