Wyndham Vacation Rentals Offers Accommodations at Top Tennis Resort Communities According to Tennis Resorts Online

The prestigious Tennis Resorts Online (TRO) ranking that lists the best tennis resorts and camps in the world has placed several resort communities where Wyndham Vacation Rentals manages properties at the top in their categories. “Top 100 Tennis Resorts and Camps” is released annually asking TRO readers to assess resorts and camps around the world in 20 categories from on-court experiences such as quality of program and value to off-court offerings including lodging and restaurants.

Placing in “Top 10” resorts, Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina and TOPS’L Beach & Racquet Resort in Destin, Florida claimed the ninth and tenth spots respectively. Palmetto Dunes also placed fourth in the “best juniors program” category while TOPS’L took third place for “best instruction and programming” and fourth place for “best value for the dollar.”

“It’s a true distinction for several of the properties we manage to be a part of the world’s best tennis resorts as decided by the traveling tennis community,” said Bob Milne, president, Wyndham Vacation Rentals, North America. “We work hard to both offer and partner with exceptional tennis facilities and doing so in some of the world’s most popular destinations, and with a professional management team behind your stay, is what makes Wyndham so attractive.”

In its fourteenth year, the ranking keeps Sea Colony in Bethany Beach, Delaware among the world’s elite tennis camps, ranking it fifteenth as well as second for “best junior programs.” The tennis community is also among TRO’s list of top 50 tennis resorts.

The Seabrook Island Club, located on the barrier island of Charleston, South Carolina where many private homes and villas are managed by Wyndham Vacation Rentals, placed as a silver medalist for tennis resort and also took third place in the “best fitness center” category.
