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

Rooms are big and confortable. New linen, plasma tv with cable, ac, minibar, confortable beds, outsdanding service and great restaurants. Good shower. Rooms on the first floor have direct access to the beach. Great place for anyone. The property has a marina and it is quite easy to arrange a tour to the islands nearby. They also a small petting...

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 common areas were nice and there is a lot to do in the hotel. However, in one of the nights I spent there a... More

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

The location and surroundings of the resort are very good - our room (comfortable but not more than this) was right in front of the beach. The common areas were nice and the pocket shows at night were very entertaining. The kids (and grown-ups) loved the Safari - it was really fun !!! Paying around USD 590/night, I was expecting...

The hotel is at the beach, and very close to the ocean. You wake up open the windows, and wow! It is not the most luxurious hotel (and the price is not of one either), but who needs that when you have one of the most gorgeous beaches in front of you. There are also dark green mountains in the... More

We stayed at the Portobello in March 03. The resort is nicely located, close to the coast highway and next to a marina. The beach is excellent. The hotel consists of a Polynesian-style open central building with restaurants and shops and a 2-3-floor building with the rooms. They are pretty simple and not in line with the luxurious setting. Furniture... More
