Not that I was on a honeymoon. My best friend and I were recommended to the Portofino. And, it was very nice. The service is second to none. They greeted us in the lobby with a special tropical drink and a hot towel with eucalyptus essential oil. Very unexpected. But lovely. They took care of booking all of our events.... more

We could not have picked a more appropriate or wonderful place to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. We were lucky enough to have wonderful breezes to keep any bugs away. The entire staff Mo, Rosaleee, Rafael (who will know exactly what you want from the first day) Orville along with the owners are there to meet your every need. I... more

We took a quick few days getaway after our wedding as the main honeymoon trip will be in September. Portofino is a honeymooners paradise, on the boat ride from town one night we were four honeymoon couples in the boat. But the resort is not only for couples in love, we saw families and older folks having just as much... more

Had a great time at the “La Isla Bonita” San Pedro! Portofino is a wonderful intimate oceanfront boutique hotel. Jan, Sandra and their staff are the best hosts you can imagine! Love the personal and friendly easy going treatment! You and your partner will feel like the king and queen! The setting is idyllic and romantic! Great food! And if... more

My husband and I took our family with us to Belize to get married. Portofino took care of everything!! The decorations were beautiful, the food delicious, and the cake divine. If you ask, Portofino delivers. In fact, sometimes you don't even have to ask; the resort is small and intimate, and the staff is friendly and always available. After a... more

First the good : Orville is the best bartender I've ever had and a very cool person! Rosalee, and the owners are also very nice. Boating / snorkeling adventures are great. A 5 gal cooler (although not cold) of drinking water was a relief. The bad: Besides those mentioned above the other staff did not give a warm feeling. I... more

We traveled with 20 family members and friends, ages 7 to 75+. The trip was for a wedding, and it was perfect. The hotel staff were excellent and very helpful. They decorated for the wedding and made a beautiful cake! By the time we left, we felt like the staff were our friends. Everyone loved the hotel, and are still... more

We are deeply sorry that our shower water was slightly briny during your stay. The problem occurred because the water levels in our storage were extremely low, as we near the end of the dry season, and our water maker not being able to keep up with the demand because of technical malfunctioning. In the mean time we have been...

The staff is super friendly and very accomodating. But be aware some rooms are MUCH better than others. Our junior suite was definitely not at all "suite-like"...it was very small, loud (we could hear the neighbors walking around upstairs and we were right next to the restaurant/bar/front desk) and the shower was old and did not drain. When asked if... more
