“Nice Resort but the location is so-so”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 24, 2012

The resort is nice, well maintained grounds, especially if you stay in the building face the pool. The location of the resort is not that great--not close to beach, it's about 5-10 min drive from the water (depending on traffic). There is a fixed time shuttle (9-am going and 2-pm return) taking you to Wyndham's sister resort that is right on the beach; however, they do not provide beach chairs. Either bring $$ to rent one or bring extra towls to sit on. The beach is beautiful and waves were calm. Pompano Beach area is so-so, not much to do there. Fr Lauderdale and South Beach are south of the area; they are driveable--takes 40 min or so to get to Miami.

I heard a lot of siren going by while I stayed there last week, I'm assuming that there's a fire house or ambulance rest-stop near by.

Bottom line is that the resort itself is nice, but over-all it does not give you the usual "resort" feel because it's location and surrounding area.

Room Tip: Rooms facing the pool make you feel you are in a resort, but could be noisy becuase the buildings ar...

“Nice enough property, unappealing location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2012 via mobile

We stayed here for a week, after staying at another Wyndham property in the area. We would have enjoyed staying at the other property where we had been, the Wyndham sea gardens. The location was boring and kind of ugly, far from the beach and anything we wanted to do. Inland Pompano beach is drab, and supposedly there was a golf course but i never saw it. It would probably be a good place for people with kids as there were lots of pools and kid stuff. They had a great gym, friendly staff, if a little pushy for the time share sales push. The property feels a little run down but not terrible or anything.

“Nice Stay, but beware of timeshare hawks!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2012

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights December 10th -December 12th and had a great stay!

Check in: We requested an early check in & the lady at the front desk had a horrible attitude. I explained to her that I called earlier and just wanted to put my name on a list in case a room became available earlier. I guess she could tell I was slightly annoyed by how rude she was and all of a sudden a room instantly became available and she could check us in. They required a credit card with a $150 hold which is removed 1-2 business days after checking out. She gave us our keys and told me to head over to another desk to get our parking pass and "Welcome Package".

At the other desk another guy gave us some information on things to do in the area, our parking pass and signed us up for a free $75 American Express gift card. My husband had no idea it was a timeshare presentation but I did. He said we'd get a free lunch and to come by around 11:45am the following day to get our welcome gift. He never said it was a presentation. When we got in the car I explained that to my husband and he said let's give a shot anyways I always wanted to get some information on timeshares, how much they are and how they work.

Room: We had a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom unit! This is all that was available when we booked back in April 2012. The place was fantastic! Very clean, modern and up to date. The king size bedroom had an awesome jacuzzi bathtub & huge bathroom attached. Our balcony looked out to the pool and there was music playing until about 10pm. This did not bother us at all, but for some people it would. We were in the Sable building room #285. The kitchen was very nice, there was also a washer & dryer. The second bedroom had 2 full size beds and another bathroom attached. Overall we enjoyed the unit!

Location: This property is close to everything! There is a Wal-mart directly across the street and about 5-10 minutes away there are tons of restaurants. We even went to the Sawgrass Mall which is about 20 minutes away to check that out too & it was amazing!

Timeshare Presentation: When we got there we had to fill out a form asking our about incomes and marital status. Then we were assigned a representative named George. He asked us if we wanted lunch which we both declined but we did have some soda. He then talked about vacationing and traveling and how important it is to him. He went on about his life and how he has a timeshare that he loves. About an hour in he finally started to go over pricing which my husband was asking about the whole time $44,000 is the price list he gave us. He then explained today is the only day to get this deal and we better act fast. My husband and I laughed. No way were we going to pay that or a make a decision on the spot like that. He went on and on and brought other people over with other "deals". Overall we were there for a little over 2 hours. We finally got out of it, got our $75 gift card and a t-shirt and vowed to never go to another one of those again. Do yourself a favor & don't waste your time.

Overall: The property was very nice & we would definitely stay again, just be sure to stay away from the timeshare presentation.

“Disappointing uncleanliness of pools”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 13, 2012

We stayed in a 2BR the week of Thanksgiving. Had to haggle with front desk to try to get a pool view room. We stayed in Sabal Palm Building; lobby was freezing. Decent room, however beds were absolutely horrible. It felt like there was a hole in each side of the bed; couldn't sleep at all, and woke up with backache. They have a quiet time policy from 10 or 11pm to 7 am, however the music from the lobby and out in pool area was blaring after 1100, and it seemed like it was right outside the window. Called front desk twice before they could get maintenance to resolve problem. Had to call again the next night for same reason. Wi-fi was not working in our building; we were told it was being worked on, and we called daily, & got the same answer each time. The main reason for choosing this resort was because of the 3 pools they had; one with a water slide. The pool with the water slide is not heated, and was too cold for my daughter or any of us to swim in. The pool that was heated seemed to be nice at first. But by the 3rd or 4th day as people began using it more, it seemed that the debris kept building up; both pools had a film and debris on the top of it. Notified guest services twice; they finally sent someone to take a look at it; they stated that they did not have anyone on site to maintain their pools, that they had to outsource it. These men that came to look at the pool looked bewildered by the problem, like they had never seen anything like it before, and did not know what to do. They were definitely not pool guys! The pool had not been cleaned once nor the bacteria levels checked at all, making it very unsanitary and could have caused us all to get sick. We did not go in the pool after this. Very shocked and disappointed to find out that they do not care for the pools and would allow bacteria levels to get to the point where guests could get sick. Would not recommend this resort to anyone.

Room Tip: Rooms with pool views are the best; the others will not have good views.

“Bang for your buck”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2012 via mobile

We stayed here after deciding to take a last minute trip with friends. It turned out to be a really good choice. We usually stay at all inclusive resorts so this was new for us. 2 couples stayed in a 2 room suite and there was plenty of space. It was fully furnished plus a washer/ dryer set (the dryer never did dry our clothes thought), we went to Wal-Mart for supplies for the week and only spent $90 for 4 adults. Talk about a money saver! There weren't many "fun" activities to do on the resort so we headed out most of the time but the staff was always courteous and prompt. I would consider this an "old people" resort, as not many people my age (31) were there without kids. Majority of the guests were retired timeshare holders though, and that was fine by us. Overall I would come back in a heartbeat. I lived the location near the highways and the gym was great as well. Sales presentation wasn't too either. I recommend this resort. Good job!
