Newport Harbor Island Resort Reviews

Awesome, beautiful weather and perfect location! The hotel is a great!

The hotel is in a nice location, but it is completely run down and outdated on the outside. The rooms and the lobby were updated. I felt for the resort fee that they charge, there should have been more amenities.

The resort was closing for a 5 month renovation this weekend and many of the great offerings were unfortunately not available

Turned heat on upon arrival and it immediately smelled like something was burning. Walls are paper thin so had to hear disgusting noises by neighbors before sunrise, both mornings. The remote was filthy and we had to search for towels in the closet resting on top of the safe.

From the moment we walked into the property we were welcomed and treated like family. The facility was well managed and maintained. The manager we talked with, Freddie, was personable and knowledgeable - a real asset to the hotel. The location was perfect- close to downtown but a little quiet escape.

To be fair, this property is closing today for a 5 month renovation which in my opinion is much needed and long overdue. Furniture in rooms is very worn and outdated. However, staff couldn’t have been nicer and more helpful. Looking forward to coming back after remodel.

Staff was nice and room was clean. The decor of the room was a little dated but overall we enjoyed our stay

The Spa was amazing, Staff was inviting and kind. They learned our names and gave us a tour of the property, it was beautiful! Can’t wait to come back after the renovations

They have breakfast available for customers, but it’s not free. I understand the difference breakfast available and breakfast free, however I am confused at that time when I was booking it.

It was ok. Location is beautiful but the hotel was too pricey for the overall. Service wasn’t the best. Food selection was very limited and both food and beverage prices were outrageous.

We stayed two nights at this property Oct 7-9 with European friends. The first night there was a storm and a large piece of construction material broke loose and banged loudly outside their room. Staffing is below par: bar area tables are not cleared (unless you do it yourself) and the breakfast shop had only one person working and was agonizingly slow for mediocre food. The staff at the check-in desk was friendly but they were unable to rouse anyone to light another fire pit for us. Overall, this feels like a downward trending but still expensive place. We cannot recommend.

Is located short distance from center of shopping/wharf areas with a shuttle Room was very clean and has great water views and outdoor pool/grounds area…..would like to come back during warmer months to take advantage of the outdoor grounds more

Located on a small island the resort is in a superb location with panoramic views (Book a sea view room with veranda). Friendly helpful staff. A free transport across to Newport and the shops and restaurants. Good parking in site.

When we arrived, they gave us a room that was supposedly an upgrade. Tried to walk in the room, the door to sticks. You have to put your shoulder into it to get it open. There’s a hole in the wall in the hallway,furniture was extremely outdated , there was mold in the shower and coming through the wallpaper. When I complained the night manager was nice enough to get us another room in the other wing of the building it was their model room, which was much nicer and clean, but not well laid out. They’re closing for a complete remodel in a few weeks. Thank God! With the amount of money I spent on that room even with a remodel I would never pay that again .
