While this is a large resort and meals can get a bit crowded, Blue Ocean could be rated five stars for its great offerings: infinity pool with padded lounge chairs; fantastic food choices; beautiful grounds; and great views of ocean and cliffs. Access to beaches quite steep with lots of steps. Will definitely stay again!

We had a lovely stay at PortoBay Blue Ocean. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable, and we loved the beautiful plants and trees around the hotel, it gave the place a very peaceful feel. The sunset views were stunning. Such a thoughtful touch when they surprised us with chocolate-covered strawberries and orange juice for a birthday — it made the stay extra special! The variety if options at the breakfast buffet was also good.
