  • Review of Wyndham Royal Vista Resort Pompano Beach, FL

    My review of Wyndham's Royal Vista resort in Pompano Beach, FL.
    I had unit 7703 which is an ocean view unit in the back building.
    I booked using the Wyndham club points internal system.
    Unit 7703 is a 1 bedroom with a wrap around balcony with a nice view.
    The unit is a 1 bedroom 2 bath which is convenient if anyone uses the couch
    bed which we did. Can sleep 4 comfortably.

    The rooms seem to be recently renovated and are very comfortable.
    This resort feels like it's somewhere other than Pompano beach.
    Pompano is usually sleepy but this resort is hopping with a tiki hut
    and resort vibe.
    There is a beach chair service for a reasonable $5 a day with a weekly
    discount of $25. A little more for an umbrella. I have my own so
    didn't use the umbrella service.

    The resort has two pools. One is in the shade most of the day and is
    a bit cooler which is the back pool. There is no hot tubs but there is
    a kiddie pool.
    The resort has a small convenience store with limited hours.
    The tiki bar serves great Margaritas.

    For some reason when I stay at this resort it reminds me of the nice
    Mexican resorts that I have been to in Cancun.
    Has lots of activities if you want to do them or you can just relax with
    you margarita on the beach. All they need are the waiters to bring
    your drink to the beach which unfortunately is illegal in FL.

    Wifi is free and works well.
    Parking is free and is in a covered parking garage in the same building.
    Using the luggage carts is a bit inconvenient because they lock them
    up and you have to get a key from the front desk and then return it
    again. I guess that's their way of making sure nobody keeps a
    luggage cart in their rooms.

    I attended the sales pitch. It was very different than in the past.
    They did give me $100 Amex Gift card.
    The pitch was very easy. They have a pitch man put everyone
    in a big room together to explain the CWA.
    Then they break you up after about an hour of listening to the
    pitch about the wonders of the CWA.
    My sales guy didn't even bother to come and get me. I had to
    go find him. LOL. I think maybe he remembered me from last time.
    Poor guy. We ended up chatting about the real estate market instead
    of the CWA cause he knew I purchased resale.


    Here are a few pictures:

        Come on down. The water is fine. Real find in Pompano.
        You won't even know you are in Pompano in this resort.

        It's a real nice resort but a little difficult to get on exchange.
        It's easy thru the Wyndham club though.
        I have gotten an exchange in the past, but it was thru II.
        This is one of the few resorts that uses II to exchange.

          I'm starting to think and line things up for retirement - 12 years until my wife is done. We'll be leaving Illinois for the southeast, probably North Carolina or Savannah area. Then we plan on spending a few weeks a year down Florida way in the January/February/March timeframe. I've had it with the cold weather.

            LOL, don't blame you Scott.
            The carolinas are a good compromise from the heat and the cold.
            This resort is prime time in Feb and March so you may need to buy in the CWA or deeded weeks.
            If you are going to spend 3 months here you might even want to just buy a second home.

                          Pat this is one of the Wyndhams that mostly trade in II. Very rarely do you see it in RCI.
