Portofino Bay Current Construction

[Minnie1222]

I just returned from a 5 night stay at Portofino and the construction was a shock to us.

Was the construction limited to only the bay side? I called Portofino today and was persuaded to stay. The lady said construction is only from 9 to 6, and we can get rooms far away from the action.

The entire main harbor area of the hotel has construction on it and even if you’re in a room unaffected by it, have to go through construction tunnels to access any dining, the boat, etc. In the end we did have a good trip but the initial look of it was a shock to us. I thought it would be one section with facade work and like 75% of it unaffected and that wasn’t the case. You can definitely still have a good trip but you will see the construction and it does significantly change the atmosphere. We did get a room without windows covered up and that did help though but honestly the main thing that helped was my kids loving their minions room and the beach pool. In the end they had a blast and that’s really all that matters, thankfully.
