Wyndham View From the Balcony

Not from the balcony, but I love the view outside “x07” and “x08” units at Old Town Alexandria. Preferably 5th floor or higher. There are only 6 units at this resort which have balconies, they are 2BR LockOff units on the 3rd or 4th floor on the 4 corners and 2 in the middle on the circular drive side. I've never stayed in one.

You can watch the trains go by all day, and Metro too. And you can see planes taking off from Washington National Airport (DCA).

Emerald Grande for Christmas with family. This is just part of the balcony in our 3 bedroom plus presidential reserve unit.

Happy New Year! Fountain Palm building at Palm-Aire. Not the greatest picture; wish I'd been able to capture more fireworks going off at the same time.

I really enjoy the way you can see both of the gulf and the bay there! Great set up.

#1434 at Governor's Green, taken 1/16/2026.

There was a dusting of snow yesterday afternoon. Didn't last long in the bright sun this morning.

I don't recall any balcony units in the middle - I'll have to look more closely when we are there early next month - these would be directly above the entrance area I'm assuming. There are corner balcony units on the 1st/2nd floor units but not on the 3rd/4th floors. Units 111/112 (2BR lockoffs or 1BR/1BR Deluxe units) and 211/212 IIRC - we've stayed in the 212 1BR deluxe unit a few times over the years when booking a 1BR Deluxe unit. I'm not sure of the unit numbers on the other end - I think they are 103/104 (and I'd assume 203/204) - these are accessible units on the 1st floor right off the lobby next to the stairway entrance on that side of the building. We stayed in 104 once, it's a small 1BR suite, not the best unit overall - wouldn't stay in that particular accessible unit again.
 
Somewhat standard Wyndham "Lackluster" view from the balcony. Sabal Palms 684 at Wyndham Palm-Aire.
No balcony privacy, parking lot / city view.

Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek, Orlando, 6th floor Tower 2. Parking lot view, but in front and to the left is a nice golf course, and to the right are the tops of Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort and farther in the distance on the right in the photo is the Tower of Terror.
