The resort was so beautiful and well kept. We loved the small size of the property and the chef was truly world class. There is a dive shop on the pier that was so helpful and well kept chartered a day snorkeling trip that was so memorable. You truly can’t go wrong staying here.

Our room was lovely and clean. We enjoyed our salt scrub and massage on the beach while listening to the waves and the breeze in the Palm Trees. Staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent food at the on site restaurant. Note of concern was the pool looked a little cloudy. We did appreciate all the work that was being done to clear the beach of the sea grass.

The property is well maintained and has a welcoming atmosphere, although some areas would benefit from renovation and modernization. Unfortunately, the beach is not easily accessible because of the amount of sargassum. The staff is exceptionally courteous, friendly, and always willing to help. The restaurant and bar provide a pleasant dining experience and excellent drinks in an outside setting. The continental breakfast needs improvement.

Gorgeous and amazing resort!! You feel like you are truly in Belize and not a hotel resort like feel. Rooms great, staff amazing. Staff can assist in everything. Make sure to rent a golf cart for stay to get around. Chris the gentleman who runs the charter boats for fishing and snorkeling super amazing guy too. Belize people are friendly, and accommodating. Very much vibe of Costa Rica with smiles and great attitude.

We had a nice stay at Portofino. The staff were friendly, the location was beautiful - right along the beach. Our room was nice and clean. We loved the corn hole game, delicious libations, and tasty food. The front desk staff were helpful in coordinating a golf-cart for us, as well as a ride to/from the airport. The nature surrounding the property was very peaceful!
