Portofino Island Resort, a 3-star Mediterranean-inspired retreat on Pensacola Beach, features five towers with panoramic views of both Gulf of Mexico and Santa Rosa Sound across 28 pristine acres.

Spacious Sky Homes

Each unit at Portofino Island Resort includes a private balcony, fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, flat-screen TV, washing machine, and private bathroom with hot tub. Two and three-bedroom Sky Homes offer 1333 square feet of space with water views from every room except bathrooms.

Diverse Dining Options

Dine at Coastal restaurant featuring seafood and land fare, or enjoy al Fresco's open-air venue with fresh lunch and dinner selections. The Smoothie Bar offers healthy snacks and beverages, while The Market provides specialty coffees, ice cream, souvenirs, groceries and alcoholic beverages.

Extensive Recreation Activities

Portofino offers sailing, kayaking, paddleboarding, surfing, tennis, golf, fitness classes, and personal training. Each tower has its own heated 70-foot pool, whirlpool spa, and beach access, while the Santa Rosa Sound water park features inflatable slides and a water trampoline.

Prime Beach Location

Located between the Gulf of Mexico and Santa Rosa Sound, adjacent to Gulf Islands National Seashore. The resort is 18.5 miles from Pensacola Regional Airport and provides tram service throughout the property.

“In my opinion, this Pensacola Beach resort stands out with its Mediterranean-inspired towers and dedicated access to a water park, ensuring a memorable family retreat. The full-service spa coupled with diverse dining spots enhance the overall experience; however, some rooms may require more thorough attention to detail. It's a solid choice for those prioritizing recreation and beachfront access.”
