I just toured the property and Wow, just WOW! I can't say enough good things about this place. First off, the new owner is amazing--super friendly, organized, and professional. You can tell she really cares about making everything perfect for her clients. The renovations they've done are incredible. The space is so beautiful--everything feels fresh and elegant. And let me tell you, the mountain views are breathtaking. It's hard to believe you can have such a picturesque backdrop for your wedding just steps away from the reception hall and ceremony space. I also love how everything is on one property. Having the ceremony space, reception hall, AND a private residence all in one place is SO convenient. No shuttling guests around or worrying about logistics--it's all right here! And honestly, this is way more elegant than the indoor conference rooms I've toured. The outdoor views here just blow everything else out of the water. We're so excited to book this venue for our wedding--it feels like the perfect mix of gorgeous, practical, and special. Highly, highly recommend checking it out if you're planning a wedding or event. This place is truly a dream!

There isn't enough words in the world to express how absolutely amazing our experience was here at the Portofino. Ever since I was young, I always knew I wanted a beautiful oceanfront wedding, and Portofino completely delivered that and MORE. Everything throughout my wedding planning process was sooo smooth thanks to Rain, aka their most amazing wedding coordinator ever (give that man a raise!!! 3 ). Seriously -- I had 5 months to get everything done for my wedding, and there were points throughout the process where I was questioning myself and whether I should've been *more* stressed than what it was because Rain was always so communicative and helpful. You always hear stories about how the stress gets to you during the wedding planning stages, but I was fortunate to not experience nearly any stress at all and honestly had so much fun throughout the whole planning process! The staff was also just amazing during the cocktail hour and reception as well -- all of our friends and family expressed how impressed they were by everyone's attentiveness, professionalism, and friendliness. They were especially attentive to my new husband and I, and none of that went unnoticed!! Our day was literally so perfect from top to bottom. Not to mention the gorgeous complimentary room we got as the newly weds. We definitely plan to come back many more times in the future to book staycations at the hotel. 10s across the board!!! I will continually recommend this hotel to all my friends and family :)
