The hotel has a great location, 100m from Marina and 100m from beach. We had a sea view room on the 8th floor which had a great view. However the hotel is directly opposite the Vilamoura Casino which can be very noisy at closing time (4am) with cars and people shouting! When we stayed the pool was being refurbished (which... more

First of all this hotel is rated as a 4 star..A 2 star rating would be more appropriate.i booked this hotel because it is advertised as 4 star facilities and service with the privacy of self cataring.In my opinion it offered neither.We booked and paid for a sea view room on hotels.com..When we arrived with our 8 month old daughter... more

Just returned from a two day stay at this hotel. Thankfully it was only two days! From the outside the hotel looks fine, and defines perfectly the old saying 'Don't judge a book by it's cover'.

All the staff are friendly and helpful a real credit... more

Arrived at the hotel to find the pool being 'cleaned' and so was out of order until the end of July (we were there in June!) Main entrance to the Portobelo was covered in scaffolding. The smell of paint thinners and paint were strong at times to say the least. It is not acceptable for towels to be hung over... more

We read the review on Portobello before we went so as soon as we got there checked out how close Dom Pedro Golf was (just over the road) as we were informed to use their facilities as higher grade hotel. The staff at Portobello were exceptionally friendly and helpful, the restaurant at portobello is in the middle of a refurb... more
