Few things foster seclusion and exclusivity more than a private island. This is what makes Portofino Island Resort & Spa a sublime escape. Just a few miles from the historic downtown of Pensacola on the western tip of the Florida panhandle, this coastal barrier island offers refined comforts in a casual, relaxed atmosphere. Spacious two- and three-bedrooms suites boast balconies that gaze across the Gulf of Mexico and Pensacola Bay, while the Terracotta Dining Room takes full advantage of the setting, serving fresh local seafood with Santa Rosa Bay views.

The unit we stayed in at the resort was wonderful - clean and had beautiful views. The resort itself was not worth the price. The staff was rude and unhelpful, the grounds are not well-kept (especially the pool areas), and the restaurants are mediocre at best. The resort will also nickel & dime you. We paid for the most expensive "adventure package" for the week - and they still charge additionally for small things like using a tennis racquet on the tennis courts - not great for customer service. Would not return for another trip.

The perfect option for travel in the FL panhandle. Our condo was well-appointed, a great view, and the property is well-maintained. We utilized the pool at our tower as well as the main pool complex. Food was about what we paid eating out at other restaurants in the area. We stayed there during “low season” and it was perfect. The beach is across the street and the property has a lot of entertainment options on the property… Waverunners, Boat Tours, Golf cart rental, etc…. We will be returning next year

This is THE best place to stay on Pensacola Beach! Don’t forget to book Melissa De Valcourt Photography in advance! She comes highly recommended by the resort, is local and knows all the best places to visit and dine. Pensacolabeach-photographer.com

Our condo was superb, great views, balcony, nicely furnished, comfortable beds, nice bathrooms, great places to eat, wonderful swimming pools and staff. They made our stay there great. It was away from the fray of the drama of the tackiness of beach towns. The beach was not crowded near there and was very beautiful. We really enjoyed our three nights there.

Wow! This resort is so beautiful, the grounds are so clean and still taken care of. The staff is so kind, courteous and customer service is their top priority for sure. The resturant on site was pricey but the food was good. The elevators were quick and again everyone so willing to assist and the cleaning was phenomenal. I've stayed at many condos Over the last 25 years and this had been by far the cleanest. Even the floors which are the hardest to clean. Or particular condo 1404 was gorgeous. Cleaning again was great minus the covers on the furniture needed cleaned and more cookware was needed but other then this I can make no complaints. I will reform with the entire family next time! A peaceful, and Beautiful resort.
