    We really liked the Aventura food court, some great options and thought the Wok Bowl was really good, and huge. Did me for 2 days! We didn’t like the pool, but Sapphire is just across the parking lot! We had the deluxe room which was fabulous! It had a rounded wall of floor to ceiling windows across entire wall. And lots of room.

    That is where we are staying for HHN this year. We use the pool at Adventura but it is smaller. We like were the hot tub is located and usually not a lot of people at it. The deluxe room sounds really nice might try to upgrade to it. We like being able to pool hop from Adventura and using the other resorts pools.

    Wow, can’t wait to try Portofino CL! Looks fabulous. We stayed CL at Royal Pacific last summer and loved it, but Portofino looks like it has more selections and lounge is huge. We did love the smaller, more intimate Royal Pacific lounge though. Lots of long tables, so you meet other families which is fun. We became friends with a family in England and have kept in touch! It seems at Portofino you don’t get that interaction as tables are all separate.

    Don’t those ground patios on East Wing have chairs and a table? Maybe haven’t gotten around to replacing it yet. Looks great! Can’t wait till all the screens are gone in the harbour! We arrive mid August! Lack of shade in the Harbour never bothered me, we don’t sit there mid day, we’re at the pool. Only sit in the Harbour during the evening to watch the singers.
