Enjoy the spaciousness of a 3BR with huge floor plan and extra large balcony with amazing vistas of the sunrise looking east, the gulf/ocean looking south, and Santa Rosa Island looking west!

Condo is also furnished with a sofa bed in the great room.

Portofino Resort is referred to as the Crown Jewel of Santa Rosa Island for good reason. It is the largest development on the island, and the last one heading east, with eight miles of undeveloped Gulf Island National Seashore after it. This 28-acre complex is a uniquely modern, Mediterranean design, state-of-the-art vacation heaven, with something for every one of all ages. Approximately 64% of the entire complex is dedicated to ecological habitat areas, with only 36% being used for buildings, roads, pools etc.

Our unit faces south and is the closest tower to the beach and the only thing you will see looking out the 60 feet of windows and deck is the Gulf of Mexico and Santa Rosa Island. Miles of spectacular breathtaking views of sugar-white sand beaches and seashore…sea, sand, and beautiful sunsets!

Each of the five towers in the Portofino Resort are at least 300ft away from each other, and offer their own large pool and hot tub, along with umbrella tables, chairs, and loungers for sunbathing, as well as, Men's & Women's bathrooms next to the pool.

The $5,000,000, 40,000-square-foot Lifestyle Center has two outdoor infinity pools with two large hot tubs, and an Olympic-size indoor lap pool, as well as a large private indoor hot tub. It has separate men's and women's areas which each feature sauna and steam rooms, as well as private lockers and shower facilities complete with all toiletries. Upstairs there is a state-of-the-art work-out facility with free weights, Cybex weight machines, and True brand treadmills, elliptical machines, and bicycles. There is also a natural juice and snack bar, featuring Starbucks coffee. There is also a special room with personal trainers available for classes such as Yoga, Pilates, kickboxing, spin classes, and many others. Water aerobics are taught in the indoor pool.

There are five, lighted, Rubico Hydro tennis courts on the property. The spa also offers message therapy, facials, and various body treatments.

When you get hungry there is the Coastal Grill (a fine dining restaurant) downstairs, as well as an outdoor grill restaurant by the pools, and an indoor and outdoor bar. Live music is often featured by the pools. The pool area is situated on the bay side, so you can walk out on the dock, or along the shore for eight miles of undeveloped, uninhabited beach, trees, rivers and lakes.

On both the gulf and the bay side at the complex are one- and two-person kayaks, water bikes, sailboats, surf and boogie boards for rent. On the bay side you can rent jet skis, sailboats, pontoon boat, and other types of personal watercraft. Or you can rent a regular bike and ride the paved walk/bike path for miles. It does not get any better than this!

There is a 65-passenger catamaran that can take you to the boardwalk for shopping, or a dolphin, sunset, or Blue Angels cruise. Or, within a short drive from the complex, you can indulge yourself in every kind of activity possible, including Pensacola Naval Museum, which is home to the Blue Angels and boasts one of the largest, indoor, air and sea museums in the world, Indian Temple Mound, a Civil War-era complex called Fort Pickens (which once held Geronimo), the Gulfarium, a zoo, Five Flags Motor Speedway with miniature Indy Cars for rental, the Seville Quarter with various live music venues, cinemas, horseback riding, shopping, endless antique stores and restaurants, fishing (shore, dock, and charters), miniature golf, motor cycle rental, electric funny car rental, jet ski rental, etc.

First, I can't emphasize enough what a gracious, sincere host Jack is. He was so accommodating, prompt and helpful when we had general questions. Along with allowing us an early arrival time, the last day my kids were not feeling well, and we asked for a later departure time. He went above and beyond to accommodate us and was genuinely caring and empathetic. The views from this condo are BEYOND GORGEOUS, and we are so grateful we rented it. Having the wrap-around balcony fully facing the Gulf & floor to ceiling windows of a 3BR unit (rented as a 2BR) makes this unit the ultimate find! The variety of quality balcony furniture made for comfortable, relaxing viewings of both sunrises & sunsets, as well as morning coffee & family meal enjoyment. You can also view the Sound from the west side of the balcony, along with the Tower 5 pool, which was perfect when my boys wanted to swim and my husband and I wanted to enjoy the balcony. The kitchen was well-equipped and the living area was spacious. Jack included beach chairs, a rolling cooler, beach towels, umbrella, and some beach toys. Not all hosts offer these extras! Tower 5 is SO close and convenient to the beach. You can follow the path by the pool and cross right over. When coming/going with all of our beach gear, it was also nice to have such a large entryway. The condo had plenty of storage space, blankets/pillows, etc. In the future, we would absolutely rent from Jack and stay at this beautiful Portofino condo again!

The stay at Portofino was just what we needed for a little getaway time. The condo is fabulous with incredible views of the gulf and Island. The resort with gym and spa were a welcome addition. The hosts are the nicest people and did everything to make our stay memorable. We will be back.
