The trip will take about one hour and fifteen minutes. The hotel has been improved since its opening and today offers a large array of options, beside a "private" beach. I call it "private" because by the Brazilian constitution no beach can be called so...There are boats to rent and the hotel is very clean and comfortable. A nice swimming... More

It seems to be a family destination favorite: kids can get entertained while their parents rest; while for couples it is not so wonderful. As a resort, you are kind of stuck in it. If the weather is good, you can spend the day on the beach, otherwise, despite of the different activities, you'll soon get bored. There is a... More

If you can´t go to Mexico this is a fairly good option as it is close to Rio and a half decent road will let you get there from Rio in about 2 hrs. BUT, and that is a big BUT, as long as you don´t mind waking up early to the very loud sound of music and a would... More

Not the cheapest choice in Costa Verde, but closer to Rio than Angra. The accomodations are very nice. Clean, comfortable but somewhat small for the price. Great beach and great views of the ocean from all units. Ours was a standard room, and we had to walk a long way and climb up three flights of stairs, so if you... More

A localização do hotel é excelente, e os quartos são até agradáveis, mas o hotel peca em diversos aspectos como a variedade de pratos disponíveis para almoço e janta,e ainda na execução deles. A comida é fraca e as sobremesas péssimas. Me hospedei por quatro dia e por três vezes encontrei pratos sujos na pilha de pratos limpos do buffet.... More

It's about 1,5 hour drive from the Rio international airport, I would recommend a transfer. All the rooms are nicely located on the beach. Besides the resort, there isn't much to do in the surrounding area. But there are a lot of possibilities (extra charge off course) to book excursions at the reception, such as horse rides or water sports.... More

I spend three nights in the hotel for a conference was being held there. Indeed, the location and surroundings of the resort are good. The room was like fifteen meters in front of the seashore.

The title says it all. It's located on a nice beach ideal for young children. It's differential is that it combines a beach resort with a farm resort. Great horse rides on the farm and spectacular views --- the high point of our stay. The service, on the other hand, is below average: there could be more options for breakfast... More

I’ve been a regular at Portobello Resort for more than 20 years. Having returned this year, I could confirm that the place is still nice, with well kept rooms and a good beach. However, service is degrading year after year. They are becoming amateurs, on the worst of senses, and they seem to be forgeting that the customer is, after... More
