If you are taller than 5'5" the furniture is to short. I'm 5'8" and it felt like I was squatting all the time & the toilets are even shorter. BUT, the beds were very comfortable. unfortunately, the furniture style & toilet height(short, very close to the ground) has not changed in years. Because of this we are having to look to other properties for a comfortable stay in the area. Sadly, we hate to go but my knees & back cannot suffer anymore.

Rundown, No customer service
Room is very rundown, issues with TV, refrigerator, commode. Not worth the nightly rate we paid. Tried to speak to the manager, was told “she was out on the property” I could leave a message or email her. I told her that I was not issues. Not very customer focused. Manager never called.

Nice but not Paradise
Balcony overlooking the beach, so that was very nice (we were in the 3rd floor). Also had beach access just around the corner of our building. Stay was comfortable and quiet, for the most part. The property looks great on the outside, but inside some problems are obvious. The kitchenette had an older stove, and the cabinets were in rough shape. The main problem we had was the AC. After it came on, we could not adjust the temperature or the fan. It just kept going. Since the weather was a little cool, we were finally able to just turn the system off and leave it off and be comfortable. We reported it to the front desk, but I don’t know if anyone checking it.

We enjoyed our stay at Wyndham Gardens. The staff were friendly and helpful but the hotel itself is showing its age. It was comfortable but in need of updating and repairs. If you’re looking for a bare-bones vacation the accommodations are fine but not fancy.

We stayed in a two double bed ocean view suit. I would definitely do it again. The pools were a great temperature. The access to the beach over the dunes was beautiful and easy to cross. The staff was very kind. The bar tenders at Manatees were great. Slow Wake made great mimosas. The breakfast cooking was a little slow. The staff worked very hard to keep the facilities clean and were most welcoming. Overall we would definitely stay here again.

After reading some reviews after booking I admit I was worrying about my choice. Turned out to be great, I think the bad reviews we’re from the older tower and they are in the process of updating all rooms. It was great access to the beach, pools are great and every morning I watched the pool man check the pool water and clean the pool areas. The doors are a bit nosy when leaving on because of the weather but not bad. Never heard anything from other rooms. I do recommend and maybe ask to stay in building A.

Rooms were really small. One elevator for the whole property. The restaurant at hotel had drainage back up and said it had been like that for well over a week. The waitress was having to walk in wet mushy water and cover floors with towels. The shower and sink pressure in room was horrible. Definitely not a place that represents Wyndham Hotels . We love the area but will definitely be staying somewhere nicer for what we paid. Over $700 for all this . No way
