Winter stay

Location of home was great, easy walking distance to boardwalk and beach. We felt very safe and comfortable. The home itself had everything needed for our 3 month stay, nice comfortable furnishings with a beachy feel, bright and airy. The pictures shown do not do it justice, the home is lovely. We will be staying at this property again.

A quiet neighborhood

At first we werent sure about the houses being clise together, but it is a quiet neighborhood. I really enjoyed being able to do the board walks in the late afternoon, hike down to the beach, enjoy musical talents at the mercantile. I wish I had pictures to show, but it is a wonderful little area with jengo blocks, a lit outdoor area with a stage, an off to the side bricked out sitting area under some trees that are strung with lights, and a sand pit area where you can sit and enjoy your drinks from the bar, or play the sand bag toss game. A swimming pool that is made in dreams, to me anyway. Really nice restaurant if you want to dress up, and a pizza place, sweet shop, and so many other little treats. Bathrooms, not porta potties, are scattered about so you can access these while taking walks. And the house, it was lovely! Please keep it that way. (We did have an issue with the main tv, but we were out doing other things, so I am sure it will be fixed in time for the next visitor. The middle cushion on the couch has a stain just so we don't get the blame nor anyone else after us.) The linens and towels are lux, and the home itself stayed nice and cool even on the hittest day we were there. Love the coffee pot. Carafe or cups. Thank you so much for sharing this residence with us. I would definitely stay there again.

Great Location / Horrible Upkeep

We purchased this as a gift to our parents for their 40th anniversary. A family trip. They arrived a day and a half before us. When they arrived, they noted a few things out of character but wanted us to see them before reporting it. When we arrived, it was confirmed and reported. First, the screen door leading into the property was broken. The door flapped open / closed constantly as the latch was missing. Second, there was no access code or way to lock the back door. I called the rental company and even they had no code for it. Third, there were a lot of things that needed simple repair. The spare bedroom's closet door handle was completely broken off. You couldn't open the door. A stool at the bar was so wobbly we had to set it aside out of fear it could break. There was a random brush under a spare bed and it appeared someone had recently broken a bracelet as there were beads scattered all over the floor in the living room. The toilet tissue holder in the half bath was hanging on by a thread. The screws were coming out of the wall and just extremely flimsy. In the Jack and Jill bathroom, the water damage is so bad the floor is popped up and warped all in front of the tub. Lastly, there were ants everywhere!! Big, biting ants. This was a huge problem as we had an 8 month old crawling around and getting into everything. We constantly had to watch her and keep an eye on her as we couldn't get the ants under control. They sent out a repair man Saturday to provide ant traps and take the screen door down but it didn't make a huge difference. The ant traps did not work at all and we suffered with them all week / weekend. It was so bad they got in our luggage so we had to put it all on top of the dressers to try and prevent it happening again. I've used VRBO multiple times and this was definitely the most issues we've ever had. The rental company said they would reach out and try to make it right and then never responded again. Their lack of concern for all the issues we experienced is appalling to me. This could be a great vacation spot and rental if someone would just take the time to give it some TLC. The location and décor were awesome, just wish everything else would have been too. Definitely wouldn't plan another trip here or advise it to anyone else either.

Decor disguises issues

The home was decorated well but severely lacked in function and amenities. A heavy 3 foot wooden fish decoration was - unbeknownst to me - poorly hung and fell on me while sleeping in the top bunk. If a child had been sleeping there, she could’ve been hurt. There were no sheets provided for the couch pull-our bed. On the second day of our 3-day trip, the air conditioner cut off and stopped working for 6 hours. The temperature reached 81 with 71% humidity inside and never fully began working again. We called the property manager twice, and although they promised to send a maintenance worker, no one ever came to check on it. The kitchen was stocked with only very basic cookware, lacking a baking pan, which we had to purchase for the meal we prepared. There had been a spill in the oven that was never cleaned, and it smoked terribly when we turned it on, setting off the smoke alarms. The shower in the Jack and Jill bathroom was not functional - the pull-up feature on faucet wasn’t working correctly so that almost equal amounts of water came out the shower head and bottom faucet. There was a broom but no dustpan and no hand soap in the half bath. Overall, the house needs some work in order to be fully functional, and I would not rent it again.

Excellent Stay

We really loved staying here with the entire family. The master bedroom has a great sized walk in closet which was perfect for the infant to sleep in her pack and play. The only TV in a bedroom is in the kids room which we also loved as well, giving them a room to stay in on their own when winding down from the days activities. The area isn't fully developed yet but we cant wait to see what happens within the next few years. The beach and pool were all within walking distance and we appreciated the relaxed vibe of the entire stay. The kitchen gadgets were great, coffee maker is perfect and we had an adequate amount of cups/plates/silverware for everyone at every meal. The house felt extremely clean and is newer which we appreciated very much! Beach towels would be a great add on to the home, as they take up quite a bit of space in luggage while traveling. A vacuum to clean would be an extra touch. And hooks should be added to the bathrooms so we can easily access towels after bathing and to hang dry. All in all we were very pleased with the home and what was provided to us. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation!

Amazing Family Getaway!

We fell in love with the Windmark Beach community from the moment we drove in. It had everything we needed and then some, plus Port St. Joe is just a few minutes away. We loved the easy walk to the beach, a community pool, small general store, and restaurant on site. It was great to get drinks and snacks from the pool bar as well. The house was just right, clean, and inviting. My only suggestions would be a couple more kitchen towels and a couple of kitchen wash cloths as well as a couple of throw blankets to use. It's obviously a new rental though so I'm sure it will accumulate more of these things as time goes by. We look forward to our next visit.
