We ended up going to Porto Fino because at the time laguna mar was booked up. The experience was pleasant and enjoyable. The food was plentiful, the drinks also. the grounds lovely to explore and the nightly entertainment also was good. The beach on the hotel was a bit rough, but the hotel is worth checking out. Clean rooms, friendly staff etc.

our trip suppose to be a family trip my husband and I got 1 room on the 5th floor my family got 2 rooms on the opposit side of the hotel alot of walking to meet up with them, water and eletricity went everyday the toilet smells, we got ocean view which was nice the rooms were clean the out side of the hotel was very clean the food was the worst ever!!!! the first night we had dinner the chicken was white!!!!!! the food had no taste the snack bar had the same thing everyday and night the drinks were disspointing and it was to far to get to the shopping area but never the less we had fun will be goin back but not at that hotel !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our flight was late so we missed dinner but we were directed to the snack bar even before we checked in. we went to the iguana where we had something to eat and some pina colada.
The room was not extravagant but had all that we needed. The ac and tv worked great, we had hot water and a phone. The bed had a concrete base and so did some of the other furniture but i guess because there are pools and the sea in this resort its the best thing.
There were two large dining rooms where we had all our meals. the staff there were very helpfull and polite. There was a great variety of things to eat so we always found things we liked.
This hotel is very from the airport and also from the shopping, but the people working with our travel agents had shopping trips.
This hotel was almost filled with venezuelans,there were just a few Trinis.
We had little problem with the language, we were always able to make them understand. I commend the staff they were helpfull.
The one problem we had was the power cuts, in the 5dys we spent it went 4tiimes. the generator would kick in but only the lights would come on. The outage wasnt for long but the first time it was night and we panicked. we got used to it but i would suggest you pack a flashlight.I found out that this problem originated in venezuela and all the hotels in margarita is affected.
My opinion is that for the money we paid, we had a great holiday.

Our stay was from July 31st - August 4th and it was great. This hotel has activities for all ages. Would surely return anytime.
