    The location of Windjammer is perfect! Right on the beach and super close to walk to restaurants and shops.

    The only thing the property could improve on is the decor and furniture which is dated, but to be honest you know this before you book because it is shown in the pictures. If it was a bit more modern it would be perfect. However, we spent little time in the room so this isn't really an issue.

    The location of this property is great, right on the beach and they provide beach chairs and umbrellas for you to borrow free of charge. Loved waking up, opening the door and being able to see the ocean. 5 minute walk from all the main bars and restaurants, which are busy enough but not too busy in June. Saw some great live musicians in the bars. Property is kept very clean. Never had an issue getting a sunlounger or umbrella by the pool at any time of day.

    The pull out couch was very comfortable, but it worked, overall no issues.

    Location location location! You are pretty much there on the beach, a very short walk. Less than 100 feet. You are also within walking distance to lauderdale by the sea, which has a wide variety of excellent restaurants, ice cream shops, etc. Literally, less than a 5 minute walk to all these places. There are two swimming pools on-site, great for families with kids. There is a BBQ, bicycles, beach toys, on-site parking, you name it. The rooms have a mini kitchen. The staff is great, excellent customer service. We would definitely go back.

    We were here for the second time. The location is perfect—just steps away from the beach with stunning ocean views right from our room. What I liked most was the peaceful atmosphere and how clean and well-maintained everything was. The resort staff were friendly and attentive, always ready to help with anything we needed. We will return next year for sure!

    The sleeper sofa in the room that we stayed in could use an update.

    Pools were very busy. Would have appreciated access to snacks/ drinks on site. Rain...

    Nothing--accommodations weren't luxurious but had everything we needed, were clean and well kept. Our 13 year old slept on the hide-a-bed/couch. It was fine for her but maybe wouldn't be good for a full sized or older adult.

    Great location right on the beach with plenty of chairs for lounging, small but clean pool, clean facilities, friendly staff. We did not have a car and loved that restaurants and shops were a short walk away. Used the local circuit by the sea for a ride to Publix and a further out restaurant when we didn't feel like walking. The front desk recommended Square Grouper SoFlo as a snorkeling guide. Conveniently located steps from the Windjammer and fun snorkeling right from the beach. It was a great value!

    The furniture in the rooms was a bit dated and not well functional for a beach-side location. The floor and other aspects of the room could use some updating.

    The location was very nice, on the beach, with two heated pools, grills and lounging, close to dining and shopping. It will be better when the nearby pier is repaired and accessible. They also had nice laundry facilities on site, for a fee, as well as many free day use items including beach chairs, bicycles and pool floats, etc. The housekeeping service was also very helpful. And the kitchenette was very useful for making stovetop meals at the resort.
