We loved having all the space in the condo. It was very clean and I especially enjoyed having the coffee maker/pods available each day. The furnishing were a bit worn but the cleanliness, coffee, amazing staff, great parking, beautiful grounds, close proximity to downtown and the waterfront deck made for a great stay! Thank you Wellington Resort!

The staff were extremely nice. The location is perfect. Suites are large. Just a couple of small issues. The jacuzzi didn’t work in our bathroom. The TV’s didn’t work in our bedrooms. And it’s a bit dated. But all and all, great stay.

Not great

Unfortunately not the exceptional stay I was expecting based on reviews. Outdated rooms with cheap bedding, trash was left in trashcan in room, smelled like pot entire time. It does have a ton of space so for families who need that, it would fill check that box. Location is good and views are great. Overall it was fine but not exceptional.

Endless space and lovely view of the ocean! My wife and I booked a regular room and couldn't believe how big the room was. We thought they gave us the wrong room at first. We did not want to leave. Awesome stay.
