Visited here in December. The hotel was okay for the price. Great beach front location, Four pools including a children's pool which was great as my two kids enjoyed this. Variety of bars, food was okay but don't expect gourmet for the price. There was also a snack bar which was good incase you got hungry in between meals. Overall... More

I liked Portofino a lot, despite the aspirational name which normally puts me off. The rooms were modest and basic, but check out the animals made form towels! Bungalows by the pool seemed to be more spacious than the room in the main building. There are many places to spend time or hide, looking for some alone time. There is... More

I stayed at Portofino and it was really a terrible vacation. Some of my friends had money stolen from their purse in their room and the only other person in the room was the air condition technician who came to repair the unit. When reported, the Manager was not very supportive and finally gave them the departure tax money. On... More

As a first time traveller to a foreign country with the main language being Spanish, I found it to be very refreshing and enlightening. I visited Magarita Island in the second week in August and I can find no fault with the hospitality service as I as well as many other visitors, had access to a decent, clean room with... More
