My family and I have visited here before to stay for over a week to explore Universal and we also went to Island of Adventure. This resort has everything, including a cool fun waterside and plenty of pool area. My brother and I loved swimming here every evening and sometimes in the mornings before going into the parks for the day. The resort is so nice and the poolside bar and grill is nice to be able to grab a meal there and then relax by the pool for awhile. Highly recommend families and friends visit here.

We stayed at Portofino Bay for our first trip to Universal Orlando and we loved it. The staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. Of the three top signature hotels the theming here I feel is the most elegant. The pool is tied with Hard Rock for being out favorite on property. While the walk to the parks and City Walk is doable but its probably quite far for most people but the boat system was pretty frequent and very accessible.
Danny Lawson
The room was excellent and the staff were all so pleasant. If it's the cheapest of the 3 hotels that include express pass, I'd come here again. Compared to the other two top-tier hotels on property (Hard Rock and Royal), this one feels it is missing some ambience as the detailing outside falls flat though the interior is excellent and our hotel always seemed to have a boat line where others did not. It was almost faster/ comparable to walk at 1pm than to wait on a boat, which just felt odd. I agree with sentiments of others that this place feels like a maze of stairs. The layout is just a bit odd and it is difficult to find some amenities, but not too challenging. I did enjoy my stay here and the amenities provided. I found my bay view room gorgeous and comfortable! Would I stay here again though? Only if the other 2 premiere hotels are more expensive.

Our stay at Portofino Bay was nothing short of amazing from the moment we walked in, all the way through check out. During check-in, Alexa and Team provided a personal greeting to my family. Creating the tone for what ended up being a fantastic experience. Offering assistance and support every step of the way, surrounded by an outstanding simulated international waterfront designed to trigger positive vibes and an artistic spirit. The people and the food ordered has definitely made a lasting impression. This was our first visit to Portofino Bay, but it will not be our last. We will make sure to add it to our preferred properties list when planning our future trips. Thank you, team, for a great start to our family vacation. My only challenge to this great property and staff would be the cost for parking, in my opinion it exceeded an appropriate and reasonable daily fee.

The Portofino Bay Hotel is a beautiful property with a charming atmosphere that feels like stepping into an Italian seaside village. The grounds, pools, and overall vibe are wonderful, and the location is perfect for accessing the Universal parks. However, during our stay, we found a very disappointing detail — a piece of dirty clothing left under a chair in our room, which suggested the space had not been vacuumed or cleaned thoroughly. For a resort of this caliber, the expectation is that rooms are spotless and carefully inspected before new guests arrive. Outside of that issue, the hotel offered great amenities, and the staff was generally welcoming. Still, cleanliness is such an important part of the guest experience that this left a negative impression. I’d give it a 3 out of 5 — a beautiful property with a lot of potential, but housekeeping standards need improvement.
