PORTOFINO BAY HOTEL INFO...FAQ`s and more.......

How long ago? Someone posted they were there all week and entree was different daily.

Please disregard what I wrote since I was likely confused with other hotels. I'm at Royal Pacific right now and dinner is actually a 7-day rotation.

Are there any updates on construction? Is the entire Piazza still walled off?

Heading down end of September, but planning on HRH if the Piazza is still a mess.

The East Wing is mostly done. They’re still working the west side of the Piazza. I’ve been watching “Big Time Myrtle Beach To Orlando” on YouTube. He has weekly updates on the Portofino renovations project. Here’s his latest video on the renovations:

Perfect, thanks.

New video. Doesn’t look like they have advanced on the renovation since last week.

Locked in a stay last night for early December.

Looks like the Beach Pool renovation is happening right now, I have to imagine that will be done long before December, right? Anyone know how long they’ve been working on the Beach pool?

Glad I locked in my rate last night BTW, the price increased by $730 overnight…but now it comes with an $800 dining card.

We’ve been here all week! One of the best club lounges we have stayed at either Disney or Universal. Food excellent and filling. The welcoming email included information on the lounge and the menu for the week.

I’m so glad to hear that. Would you mind sharing the menu please. My trip is coming up but I haven’t received an email.

Good morning,
We are thinking of coming in 5 weeks. What is the current status of the construction?

Thanks

From the video that the guy a few posts up posted this week, looks like the villas side is still pretty torn up, as are both of the piazzas.

But it also looks like it will be in better shape overall in 5 weeks.

The east wing looks way, way less torn up.

Any chance you can post the most recent menus that they sent you? Wondering what the newest meals are. Going in March myself. Thanks!

A new video got posted. The walkway to Hard Rock is back open! No more walking all around the lake!

FYI. We are going to UOR first 2 weeks of December, staying at HRH. My wife had a reservation at the Mandera Spa at PBH and just received a call saying that the spa is closing permanently effective Nov 30 and they needed to cancel her reservation. Now going to The Grand Floridian Spa instead.

Wow. I just visited PBH last week to see what was up with the construction. Still a lot going on there, but did not know the spa was closing.

The partnership contract with them has ended, there may be a new spa in the future with a new partner company in place of Mandara.
