Location was great in Long Wharf! Simple walk everywhere downtown. Rooms were perfect for family of 5 for a week. Loved the amenities including two pools, hot tubs, fire pit and movie theater.
The apartment was very well located—the harbor and downtown were easy to reach. The apartment was clean and well maintained. Nothing was missing. The service at reception was excellent. The apartment complex is in a quiet location. All in all, it was really lovely.
The property is neat and clean. The staff were very helpful. The only downside is the place is dated. While it's obvious that some upgrades have been made, some new living room furniture is needed (scratche
Property was amazing, clean and staff was very friendly. There were activities for the kids at the resort and location was close to shopping, restaurants and much more. We will definitely be back!
Some bumps leading up to our stay, but it all worked out. Staff was excellent, rooms were spacious and clean. Perfect location to all. Looking forward to staying there again.
Our group of 6 adults had a great stay at the resort. The unit was very spacious and the location was excellent. We walked everywhere downtown. Would love to stay there again!
We had a great time. Unfortunately we booked 3 nights and were told last minute we could only stay 2. We consequently had to move location as there was no availability? Resort did not seem that crowded so I don’t really understand
We had an outstanding experience at Wydham Long Wharf! We arrived late at night and the computer weren’t working for check in, but the staff was great and able to get us into our room very quickly despite the issues. We enjoyed the pool and the property very much. The staff was very helpful and also accommodated us being able to use the showers after running the half marathon before we made the drive home. We would recommend staying at this property!
Everything about this resort was perfect for families. Check in super easy. Suites large and included everything you’d need while away from home. Beds were all super comfortable. Activities and the pool were loved by the kids. Convenience of a hotel with the space and amenities of a rental. Would book again!
We rented a three bedroom/two bath unit for our family of five (all adults) there for a wedding. Nothing fancy, but a spacious unit with everything we needed and walking distance to much of Newport. Reasonably priced. We did not use the pool but a couple of us used the workout room which was nice. Would stay there again.
