Location , Location, Location !!! This place has it all. Everything is close by and the resort people are friendly and very helpful. The free bikes at the resort were fun. You are right on the beach. The one bedrooms would be a tight sweeze for 4 people but there were only 2 of us so we were very confortable.... More

Windward Passage is awesome. You are on the beach literally. Step out of the pool area and onto the beach. We have stayed here the last two years. Our first year was a timeshare trade. We loved it so much we sold our other timeshare and bought a week at Windward Passage. The management is outstanding. The maintenance fees are... More

To be fair, I don't have anything resembling the traveling experience of the couple posting in October '11, but we do travel about a fair bit, and we really didn't feel their trip was typical. We were also in the "motel" units, and had a maintenance issue where our door wouldn't quite close (loose on the hinges). Maintenance (Carl) walked... More

We chose this exchange for our Park Hotel unit in Park City, UT and read all the raving reviews, thinking it would be perfect for us to stay on the beach while we visited relatives in Naples. We have been trading since 1983 all over the world and have experienced great, good, and bad trades. While the resort is well-maintained... More

The folks that run it are really caring and family-friendly. I have vacationed there many times while my children were growing up and a couple times since then. It is well kept up and has continued to improve over the years. It is away from the hustle and bustle of Ft. Myers beach, but you can get there easily.

We have been owners at the windward passage for 5 years. This place is by far the best place we have stayed in southwest Florida. The resort staff are second to none. Over the years our family has made good friends with a number of families that return the same time each year. The grounds are kept neat, clean and... More

We are owners at Windward Passage and go every year. This resort is second to none on Fort Myers Beach, very well managed and clean. The pool area is the highlight of the resort, a must stay for sure.

The ocean was right outside the screened-in balcony & could be seen from the kitchen, diningroom, livingroom and bedroom. The bay was right outside the kitchen window, across the street. I took a walk on the beach and saw dolphins jumping out of the water and stingrays, pelicans and cranes. The beach had soft white sand. The condo was very... More

We have stayed at this beautiful Resort many times and have never been disappointed. The grounds are beautifully kept and the units are immaculate. It is an older building but everything has been kept up to date and well maintained. Staff helpful and friendly. The pool is a salt water pool which is more comfortable and user friendly. Hot tub...

[Note: Photos for this review are included; see that portion of the review page. This stay was in a non-oceanfront unit at the Windward Resort; these are the units, as I understand, that are typically available on a "points" basis for this mostly-timeshare resort. The room comments relate only to that type of unit; the complex comments relate to the... More
