Beware of the Timeshare

The room we had was great. It overlooked the ocean, had a big sliding glass door, a full kitchen with all the pots and pan, a full bathroom, seperate bed room, two tv's, and a washer and dryer. However, when I booked the room I had no idea that the room was a rental and part of a timeshare. The hotel would not provide my wife and I with extra towels, soap, or other Hotel type things. We were on vacation and didn't want to wash towels. The hotel really pushes trying to sell you a timeshare. If you do sit through their one on one presentation you are given a gift.
Beware of 5th Floor!

If you are expecting a balcony, do not let them book you on the 5th floor, south tower, room 516 or higher. You will be looking at the roof of the mall next door. You'll also enjoy the fact that you can't even open your windows. Your wonderful view will include air conditioners, cigarette butts, beer bottles and other niceties. The front desk staff couldn't move me - even if we payed more and downgraded our room size (from 2-BR to 1-BR). No help at all.
The pools were great, although they were engulfed in the shade after 1:30pm each day.
Give it a lot of thought before you book at this crap-shoot of a hotel. You could win the room lottery or lose - like we did.

My wife and I stayed in an ocean front room on the 11th floor of the South Tower for 4 nights. I was skeptical as reviews of this resort were both good and bad.
Let me tell you, it was much more than I expected! Security was very friendly and visible at every entrance of the Hotel. The pools, grounds, and rooms were very well maintained. Although we rented a car, it was not needed as the hotel was located next a large movie theater, restaurants, bars, the pier, amusement/water park, and shopping. The resort itself contained 2 indoor pools, 2 outdoor pools, outdoor kiddie pool, 2 outdoor hot hubs, an arcade, and (most importantly) an awesome pool bar! The beach was private as traffic was not allowed in front of the Ocean Walk and a Life Guard was on duty during the day. We used the pool area between 8am - 4pm, and then moved down to the beach as the Hotel towers block the "pool sun" after 4pm. You must try the sitting beach bikes...We rented these for an hour one day ($10 per hour) and it was one of the highlights of our trip. We went a couple of miles North and South on the beach, and it was quite obvious that the Wyndham Ocean Walk Resort was the place to be! We were approached about time-share options at the front desk and on the beach, but you can't blame them for trying. Also, we had a room key issue that the front desk was able to resolve.
With that being said, this resort is the real deal. My wife and I took this vacation w/o the kids, but will return soon with the kids as there is something here for ages.
Beast place on the beach!!!
