We booked our stay through Ocean State Rentals.com, a booking agent that advertised the Wellington. The location of the "resort" was wonderful and the view from our 2 bedroom condo was first rate. If it wasn't for this, we would have left the "resort" to go elsewhere. Prior to our stay we called to see if they had a crib... more

My wife and I stayed at The Wellington resort 10/12 - 10/19/07. Truly enjoyed the bay and harbor and the yearly seafood festival was in full swing. We stayed in a 2 bedroom two bath with a harbor view to die for. I don't understand the negative reviews as we were very happy. We toured the mansions saw the sights.... more

I exchanged into the resort through RCI despite reading the past reviews. Sure the resort interiors are a little dated, but the condo itself was immaculate! The staff was very friendly at check in even giving us some reccomendations as to where we can enjoy a good happy hour. We had a two bedroom unit which was much bigger than... more

You share thermo with other part of unit. Had to open slidders to cool down the place. No stove other than a micro and a toaster oven. NO Linen for soafer... more

Stayed at the Wellington April 2006. Very nice timeshare. Clean, 2 decks, beautiful view of Newport harbor and Newport Bridge. Short walk to shops and restaurants. more

The wellington has undergone some changes recently that caused the unforetunate reviews. I have been involved in Newport for over 10 years and enjoy going to the wellington. Newport is expensive and the Wellington (even at $575/2bedroom unit) is a bargain compared to the local hotels. The construction is completed at the site now so there should not be any... more
