Has anyone stayed club level at Portofino recently? I've read a few reviews on Trip Advisor recently where people claim it not being worth it anymore and isn't as good as it use to be. If anyone has stayed club level recently what is your opinion? Pictures would be great also!
Thanks so much!!
Hello! I stayed in November/December this past year. It's funny but I had the exact opposite feeling about Portofino. I felt their CL put Disney's to shame. We actually cancelled our CL Poly stay to stay there and we are SO happy we did. We have done Wilderness Lodge CL several times already, and when comparing to Portofino, the food is more plentiful at Portofino. You can make a full dinner out of it. For example there was Chicken Fettuccini one night, Fajitas another, pasta another, Asian chicken another. Can't remember the other two. Always had a side, such as rice or pasta and then vegetables. Full salad bar, tons of cheese options, crackers, cold veggies, etc. Beer and wine included during dinner hours plus the option of mixed drinks (for a fee). Breakfast was Scrambled Eggs, Tater tots, hard boiled eggs, cereals, tons of pastries, bagels, breads, oatmeal, etc.
Bagged snacks, cookies, granola bars, etc. for snack time, which was so convenient to grab and bring back to the parks. Someone else had also mentioned that Portofino, during the month of December, did a trial with small sandwiches during the lunch hour. I'm not sure as to whether or not they are going to keep doing it, we have not heard from anyone since .
If you check the Portofino Sticky you'll see my full review, as well as others. I'll be back at Portofino CL again this year. Good luck deciding!!
