NEW LISTING WITH NEW OWNER!

We have owned and managed gulf front property in Destin for over 20 years. We have enjoyed sharing our properties with our guests. Our guests have made priceless memories with their families and friends over the years, which they have shared many of those memories with us. Please look at our Destin property for how well our guests enjoyed their stay with us, VRBO #355152. We have recently relocated to the Pensacola area and were ready to invest in property on Pensacola Beach. We chose Portofino Island Resort due to the location, beautiful condos and the full suite of amenities offered.

We purchased this Sky Home in October 2019. The view upon opening the front door is why our condo is called a Sky Home. From the 18th floor, you will see unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico! This is the "first impression" that won us over on our purchase.

Portofino consists of 28 acres located on a pristine stretch of nature preserved land bordering both the Gulf of Mexico and the tranquil waters of the Santa Rosa Sound. In addition, enjoy direct access to several miles of federally protected sugar white sand beaches, complete with the renowned emerald green and turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Beautifully furnished 1,333 square foot Sky Home with a king bed in the master bedroom, queen bed in guest bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living area. TVs and DVD players in each bedroom as well as in living area. The condo has all the luxuries of home. In addition, there are 2 RESERVED PARKING SPACES in the covered garage for our guests. Additional parking outside at the ground level is available.

Last but not least are ALL the amenities offered by Portofino Island Resort. Below is a list of what is offered:

Beautiful, Spacious, Clean, Relaxing

We were in Pensacola for a baseball tournament. The condo was perfect. The views from the balcony were incredible. We saw dolphins multiple times & the night skies were stunning. We enjoyed the pools on site & many local restaurants.We rented a golf cart to explore the National Sea shore. Karen was quick to respond & very thoughtful.

Nice little get away.

This place was a great little getaway for the husband and I! Very well maintained and secure. Quiet and peaceful! The only drawback was that we arrived 30 minutes early and still were required to wait until exactly 4pm before we were allowed access to the room. With a 3 year old and 5 year old that had been in a car for 8 plus hours, it was a bit tense til we could get them settled! Other than that, it was a nice little get away for a birthday and anniversary weekend!

Perfect anniversary trip

The unit was perfect for our first wedding anniversary trip. The views are just breathtaking and you have to see it in person to truly appreciate. The condo was well appointed, spotless, spacious and comfortable. We had everything we needed. Coffee, snacks and a welcome gift of a nice bottle of wine were included from the host. All these touches really impressed us. Communication with the host was clear and friendly. We hope to return next year

Perfection!

What a wonderful place to visit! We celebrated my husband's 40th. For February we were surprised with some warmer weather. Plenty of pools and hot tubs to choose from, everyone was very friendly. The restaurant onsite had fantastic food and drinks, and the Happy Hour specials we ate and filled up on easily. The sunsets, beach, and water were from a postcard. The condo was clean, quiet, well stocked. Karon went above and beyond, and we really appreciate her.
