Travelled with toddler and the property is vast and has lots of things to do to keep them entertained. Good for families and close to the seafront.

With the "bang for the bucks" place to stay at, we can only recommend you to stay at the Residence. Accommodations, pool area as well as the restaurants are excellent. Family with kids will have a nice week by the poolside, but dont expect kids playground/activities. Evening entertainment feelt old and dated for us (mid 40s of age), possibly aimed for the +65. We surely will be back at this premises again soon.

This is our third stay at Porto Mare, and its just as good as we remember. Spacious and clean rooms, lovely breakfast buffet, great facilities for adults and kids. Our two year old especially loves the pools and playground.

Lovely hotel, stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment for a family of 3 and the room size was excellent. The food in the hotel was excellent and the pools were great with loads of space.
