So, you want a trip with just as much modern luxury as rich history? No need to choose between old and new here. Washington D.C. has both! Intertwined with history in the heart of the city and alongside the National Harbor, there are plenty of things to see. If you love travel and history, your chance to stay (luxuriously) in a historic U.S. city is here. Club Wyndham has a resort right on the water here — Club Wyndham National Harbor.
Let’s take a look at what’s waiting a short drive from Club Wyndham National Harbor.
The National Harbor: Modern and Monumental
Washington D.C. is the nation’s capital. It also includes many monuments that are visited by people from all over the world! D.C. draws tens of millions of visitors every year. In addition, this city has a lot of history to see, and Wyndham has a resort waiting for you a short distance from the action. When you’re done lounging by the pool at the resort, head over to the city to see these monuments and make new memories with your loved ones for a thoughtful, educational and adventurous vacation.
While you’re there, Club Wyndham National Harbor is a few blocks from Spirit Park Carousel and the 72-foot sculpture The Awakening. A few steps further is The Capital Wheel, whose enclosed gondolas rise 180 feet over the Potomac for views stretching from the Washington Monument to Georgetown.
