Wonderful Beach House
We had a wonderful stay at this beach house. The community is great and very convenient. A short walk to the beach. Would love to visit again and will bring our electric bikes for the next visit as there are lots of walking/bike trails throughout the community. Our teenager also enjoyed the stay!

Lovely Home, Great Place to Chill!
House is great, spacious newer build in a quiet neighborhood steps away from the beach. We were looking for someplace low key to chill, exactly what this home delivers. Interior is modern and clean, more rooms than we actually used, great for kids and pets. Kids liked the empty 2-car garage and street for sports as well as the bunk bed room. House includes a wagon and beach toys so we didn't have to pack our own, and games for family time. The beach is pet friendly and our Luna loved to run and meet other dogs. Also like that the beach isn't crowded. The heated pool is excellent especially in March! Again plenty of room no crowds. The Windmark area has a couple restaurants, a bar with live music, ice cream and great sunsets. Dog park onsite. Excellent shopping and dining in town 5 minutes away. We ate at Sisters Bistro, PSJ Bar & Grill, Brick Wall and KrazyFish, all good options with little/no wait. We climbed the Lighthouse and did nature hikes at the Buffer Preserve, Deal Tract, and State Park on the Peninsula on cloudy days, and the beach and pool on sunny days. Ideal spring break for those looking to relax away from the crowds and chaos.

Family friendly beach trip!
We absolutely loved our stay here. The house is very close to the beach and you get some ocean views as well! We rented a golf cart which helped us get to the beach and the pool with little kids. The community was very beautiful. Our hosts were so kind to us - checking in with us and making sure we had everything we needed! The house had lots of kid friendly items and toys for the beach! We will definitely be back to the WindMark community!

Fantabulastic!
If you are thinking about staying here -think no more and just hit the book now button! You will not be disappointed. This home is the perfect beach getaway! Whether two or ten people there is plenty room for all! The home is lovely and probably the cleanest VRBO I’ve ever stayed in. Also has the most comfortable beds. They have anything you need to make lunch and dinner in the kitchen. Even a few spices and oil in the closet. Or if you want to go out, Port St Joe is an 5 minute drive. I’d recommend Peppers for Mexican and The White Marlin for a great steak, seafood and marvelous sunsets! In the garage they have beach towels and plenty of beach toys, several beach chairs, and a wagon to pull all in. The white sand beach is a 5 minute walk and there is a great path for bike riding. There is a little shopping and dining area in the neighborhood you can walk to and even a doggy park! The home owners responded quickly to my questions and very personable. This is my new favorite vacation spot! I will be back for certain!

Perfect beach house
The house was extremely clean and in great condition. It was perfect for our family. It’s a short walk to the beach. We also visited Mexico beach and Cape San Blas. Both places are a quick drive. The owners were quick to respond if we needed them or had questions. They gave good recommendations to places to try out.

We loved staying at this property! The house is in tip top shape, roomy, very nice lay out. It had everything we needed plenty of towels, kitchen was fully stocked, beach accessories. The neighborhood was quiet very accesiable to the beach and very large tropical pool. One thing me and my husband particularly enjoyed was the extensive boardwalk for evening walks. The hosts were very responsive to any questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Beach
While the house was nice and the beach was close. It wasn’t much of a beach. Very little sand area and lots of crushed shells making it hard to walk out to the water without shoes.

Relaxing time away
Our family loves this area! We enjoy not being in the middle of touristy chaos yet still having it in driving distance. This area is ideal and we have visited 5 times now. This property was new for us however, and it was great for our families needs. The kids especially loved the option of the pool and the beach so close by. Thank you for a great experience.

Wonderful Spring weekend!
Great house , super clean & perfect for a beach weekend! Close to the east end of Windmark Beach, it was windy and a bit cool but the grandkids still had fun building sandcastles and discovering fun things after high tide subsides - like a starfish or sea star. There were plenty of sand toys so we didn't have to bring ours. We made lasagna one night and the next night bought some shrimp at Piggly Wiggly (5 miles) and had them steamed. We will certainly be back!
