Wyndham Corpus Christi Resort North Padre Island

We recently stayed at this hotel and please DO NOT STAY HERE. It is dirty and filthy. They do not clean this hotel. There are dogs everywhere including the pools. If you so stay here take pictures of your rooms before you leave. They love to claim you created damage when their hotel is old and very outdated.

Huge letdown NOT A RESORT. Not sure what was truly happening but they couldn’t check us in until 2 hours after check in time which is 4pm. Then they gave us an awful room with a wall blocking our ocean view. If you must book here don’t stay in #209. They said they would give us a discount. The discount was $12 resort fee. The bed was lumpy and hard. The manager was “not available” to discuss the late check in while we were waiting. There were 25 other people waiting to also get in a room while others were without an ocean view were checking in with no problem. The “breakfast” was pastry. I fell in the parking lot after sun down because the asphalt is uneven so the reception person gave me a bandaid. Very dangerous.

I stayed here years ago when it was a Holiday Inn and loved it. What a difference a few years makes. It is now a Windham Resort. Resort??? This is no resort. We are currently staying here. The breakfast that was supposed to be served until 10:00 am, was a joke. We got o the lobby at 9:00 am. There were no pancakes like we were told there would be. There was literally one banana, 2 old tiny pastries, 2 bagels and coffee. We saw other people come to the lobby, turn around and leave to go get breakfast. One of the small wall mount bed side lights does not work. The lamp usb port, does not work. 3 of the balconies facing the ocean have very bright lights that cannot be turned off. We have one of those rooms. It shines in the room and attracts bugs when you go in and out of the room. So now we have flying bugs in our room. This light should be able to be turned off. The front desk said it cannot be turned off. The plug in the bathroom doesn’t work, the latch on the front door is missing, so the door doesn’t close properly, the balcony door lock doesn’t work properly. The drain in the bathroom sink doesn’t work properly. A very disappointing stay.

The only thing different between this hotel and the skanky one we stayed in during spring break in the 80’s was the size of the room. Very disappointed in finishes (lack there of) and with check-in. Did pre-register and upon arrival room was not ready for hours. Breakfast was minimal with no juices available. Think twice before you spend your money here.

We booked the Wyndham for a few days away with friends, and our stay just happened to coincide with the cold, stormy weather that hit the east and south. So I won't hold the Wyndham responsible for the weather! Still, here's my honest review of our experience. The rooms were poorly designed and a bit shabby. The bed, linens, pillows, and towels were OK. "Breakfast" consisted of white bread, bagels, muffins, and two types of cold cereal, with lukewarm coffee. The Keurig machine was broken. With as few guests that were in the hotel, it would have been better, and probably cheaper, for the Wyndham to just offer breakfast vouchers to a local restaurant if they can't be bothered to put on a reasonably nice breakfast buffet. The pool and hot tub were not operational. No bar or restaurant was open. The views of the beach from our room were outstanding, though. The staff people were universally wonderful; kind and helpful and chatty. If we go back, it won't be in the winter, when the hotel seems to shut down.
