Fantastic stay in Portavadie for our anniversary. The lodge rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. Food in the Marina Restaurant was lovely and staff were warm and friendly. Spa facilities were an added bonus, we loved the outdoor infinity pool with stunning scenery. There was a card and chocolates in our room wishing us a happy anniversary. We thought this was a lovely touch and we would recommend and stay again.

Lodge room was very comfortable, clean. Bit of a walk to get to restaurant from it if you want to have a drink first or have mobility issues. But top marks to hotel reception they organised a pick up from room & back when finished by a very pleasant & helpful young man called Pete. Only issue was my steak at dinner, it wasn't good & don't think it was rump either as said on menu Other than that food very good

Portavadie Marina
We loved our stay in Portavadie. The outdoor infinity pool is excellent. We sayed in the lodge. Our room was spacious but a little bit tired looking. The corridor carpet leading to our room looked as though it had seen better days as did the sofa in our room. None of this was bad enough to put us off potentially returning to this resort, which is located in a beautiful setting. The service in the restaurant was excellent.

The food was okay. The indoor and outdoor pool was nice. The view from the spa was lovely but you are not aloud to take photos of the view as no phones aloud. Our room was nice enough but could probably do with updating. Staff in the restaurant and the lifeguards were friendly and helpful. Unfortunately I have to say that it was average and overpriced.

Relaxed, reconnected and very happy.
From arrival to departure, our stay was everything we hoped for and more besides. Perfect location and facilities within the complex are excellent. We came for a relaxing, time for us break and that’s exactly what we got. Left feeling relaxed, reconnected and happy. We will definitely be back.
