포르토피노 비치 리조트

Portofino is a beautiful, quaint little resort. We have stayed in their small cabanas a number of times. They are rustic and simple. The resort grounds include a lovely salt water pool, a dock, a small reception area, a small outdoor bar with a beautiful patio under large sea grape trees as well as a restaurant above the reception area that overlooks the gorgeous sea and barrier reef. Overall, it is simply beautiful and relaxing. The frontline staff are phenomenal, truly great and caring human beings. They really make the stay very special. This July 2026 stay, however, we experienced a few disappointments in comparison to past stays. The restaurant food was not as good overall as we have experienced in the past. Most disappointing in respect to the amenities was the removal of the water taxi as an option for going into San Pedro or to other resorts. We were truly saddened not to have that available given how far Portofino is from the city. The biggest challenge, though, was the lack of available beach front and ocean water. While not a reflection on the resort itself, the large amount of seagassum was disgusting and the smell sickening. Sadly, it extended out past the end of the dock.

The staff was amazing!! Above and beyond!! The rooms need an overhaul, new roofs and new ac units, ac never got cold. Need more amenities like better cornhole bags and boards, maybe other stuff to do while on the resort.

The property is beautiful! Our room was amazing and the air conditioning kept up wonderfully. The very best part of our stay was how helpful and well cared for we were by the staff. Not only she take care of us but she made sure other companies she works with made sure to take care of us (ferry, taxi, etc) Highly recommended

The resort was so beautiful and well kept. We loved the small size of the property and the chef was truly world class. There is a dive shop on the pier that was so helpful and well kept chartered a day snorkeling trip that was so memorable. You truly can’t go wrong staying here.

Restaurant is top notch, one of the best on the island. Peaceful, close enough to town for enough to be out of the hustle.

Duane and Fara were the best

Great food and staff

Our room was lovely and clean. We enjoyed our salt scrub and massage on the beach while listening to the waves and the breeze in the Palm Trees. Staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent food at the on site restaurant. Note of concern was the pool looked a little cloudy. We did appreciate all the work that was being done to clear the beach of the sea grass.

The property is well maintained and has a welcoming atmosphere, although some areas would benefit from renovation and modernization. Unfortunately, the beach is not easily accessible because of the amount of sargassum. The staff is exceptionally courteous, friendly, and always willing to help. The restaurant and bar provide a pleasant dining experience and excellent drinks in an outside setting. The continental breakfast needs improvement.

Gorgeous and amazing resort!! You feel like you are truly in Belize and not a hotel resort like feel. Rooms great, staff amazing. Staff can assist in everything. Make sure to rent a golf cart for stay to get around. Chris the gentleman who runs the charter boats for fishing and snorkeling super amazing guy too. Belize people are friendly, and accommodating. Very much vibe of Costa Rica with smiles and great attitude.

This place is great.

This resort was absolutely beautiful, the staff made it even better. Rosita was our favorite!! So welcoming and fun. Staff were always cleaning and always very friendly. Sunrise steps outside your door on the beach or pier was my favorite part!! Breakfast and coffee in the morning was wonderful. Have plenty of wonderful things to say about this place. It was nice that it was away from the noise of the city but it was a very bumpy long ride to and from, you definitely need a golf cart to get around. 20 minutes from secret beach was a plus since there’s a lot of sargasm on this side of the island. Only thing I would suggest would be to add some hooks in the rooms to hang things to dry.

Beautiful quiet hideaway.

Wonderful breakfast, lunch and pasta dinner. It is remote from the hustle and bustle but the view is great. The rooms are comfy. The pool is wonderful. The cozy porch’s of the cabana are great for reading a book.

We enjoyed our stay so much. We wanted a place to relax and that is exactly what we did. We watched the sunrise from the pier every morning and loved lounging by the pool. We enjoyed the bar and restaurant. Our room was spacious and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. We hope to visit again soon!

Title: Quiet Luxury Meets Island Magic 🌴✨ Portofino Beach Resort on the north side of San Pedro is truly a hidden gem—perfect if you’re looking for a peaceful, relaxing stay while still being close enough to enjoy the fun of Secret Beach. I traveled with my mom, and from the very beginning, the experience was seamless. Even before we arrived, the communication was excellent—they made sure every detail for our beachfront cabana was just right. When we got there, we were welcomed with cocktails, which immediately set the tone for a warm, elevated experience. We stayed in Cabana #6, and I can’t say enough about how beautiful and well-kept everything was. The room was spotless, thoughtfully designed, and felt like a true retreat. You could tell they really care about the details. A huge shoutout to Faura and Rosita at the front desk—they were absolutely exceptional. From pre-arrival communication to in-person service, they went above and beyond to make sure we felt taken care of every step of the way. The food was incredible, and I especially loved the light continental breakfast included with the stay—it was the perfect, easy start to each day in paradise. Whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner, or with family like I was, this place offers such a beautiful and relaxing escape. Belize never disappoints, and San Pedro continues to be one of my favorite places to return to. This was my first stay at Portofino, and it definitely won’t be my last. Highly recommend☀️

Enjoyed the secluded beach, the dinners at the restaurant and the relaxed atmosphere.

Great location north of town for a quiet and relaxing vacation!

Everything what we wanted to do, we did and enjoyed. Bikes were available at no cost, we enjoyed to be able to bike to other resorts. Every day you had the choice for dinner outside or inside. The location is great, away from the busy San Pedro town, Golf Cart City. Nothing the people in the resort, do all to make your stay perfect.

We had a nice stay at Portofino. The staff were friendly, the location was beautiful - right along the beach. Our room was nice and clean. We loved the corn hole game, delicious libations, and tasty food. The front desk staff were helpful in coordinating a golf-cart for us, as well as a ride to/from the airport. The nature surrounding the property was very peaceful!
