Portofino is nestled in a secluded island environment, surrounded by a national treasure - Gulf Islands National Seashore - yet is just minutes from exciting nightlife and shopping in Pensacola's historic downtown district.

Resort Adventures

Portofino Adventures offers family fun-filled outdoor activities called "Island Adventures" because of the resort's distinctive location between the Gulf of Mexico and Pensacola Bay. The natural beauty of this coastal barrier island is carefully preserved for your enjoyment. In fact, the neighboring Gulf Islands National Seashore features eight miles of pristine beauty - the ultimate beach walk the entire family will enjoy. Visitors will find a wide variety of recreational opportunities available to entertain every age.
