We love Hotel Portofino and Gabi and team. Feels like a family. The beach is quiet and relaxing. We also love that the WiFi is good enough for work video calls. Service is great, just be patient. Highly recommend!
We came just for breakfast and swim. Stuff is so friendly. The greenjuice was so refreshing! Omlette was good. Next time we'll come to stay. Thank you the friendly Portofino team at the restaurant.
What a vacation at Hotel Portofino! The location of the hotel is extraordinary, right at the 14 km long white sandy Playa Blanca beach. The scenery from the infinity pool overlooking the ocean waves is just breathtaking. You could just hang out there with your Margarita and take in the view. Two open eating areas right at the beach are inviting you to enjoy the delicious food of the menu expertly created by the chefs. Our room was very clean being looked after every day by two maids. We made the best experience with the friendly staff, from the manager Omar, the waiters, cooks and property staff, everyone was very attentive. We were lucky to be there for Valentines Day and enjoyed a wine pairing dinner with live music by a local singer. The night ended with a bonfire at the beach. Everyone went above and beyond to make this a memorable evening. If you want to go into Zihuatanejo, the taxi ride is around 15 minutes for 350 Pesos. Are there more than 5 stars? We will be back!
Hotel Portofino is amazing! The hotel & rooms are absolutely gorgeous, and the view of the ocean can't be beat. The staff are super friendly & helpful, and the service is on point. The food was excellent, also! I highly recommend this hotel for a romantic getaway or group event. Will definitely go back!
We are here several times during our stay in a condo 20 minutes walk away north on the beach. Israel and Daniel are amazing servers. The food was outstanding, especially the French toast and licuados for breakfast and the salads and fish for dinner. Everything was yummy! 3 generations all very happy!
Fabulous serene find ! I have been coming to this lovely luxurious boutique hotel for several years and have never been disappointed ! The facilities, the rooms, the food and staff are of the highest order, however, the prices are incredibly reasonable for what is on offer. No crowds and 10 miles of empty beach. This is the real Mexico ! Enjoy !!
We have stayed at this lovely place three years in a row and love it! The owners go above and beyond to make you feel cared for, all the staff is very accommodating! Even with construction going on this year, it is a peaceful perfect getaway!
Most beautiful hotel in playa Blanca! Worth to visit and stay
