Windward Passage Resort

I am writing this review to express my profound dissatisfaction with my ownership at Windward Passage Resort and the management, Vacation Resorts International. I have been a loyal owner for over 40 years, consistently paying my maintenance fees annually. Despite this four decades of commitment, I have only visited the resort four times, including the initial visit when the unit was purchased. That certainly does not scream "value" for the amount I've paid. My first husband and I bought the timeshare in 1984, but due to his Army career, he had very little time for family vacations, and we ended up exchanging our week every year for resorts near wherever we were stationed. My current husband and I only visited the resort once in November 2019 prior to the hurricanes. Our only issue before t

This resort is on the best spot on Ft Myers Beach, yes the place is older, some say its outdated. I say its perfect! The resort is very clean! The people are super nice ! The location is the best. It is 100% safe . The walk down to the pier is great . The girls in the office are very efficient ! I work hard and when I get down to the beach I want a nice quiet place to relax..this is just what I find at Windward Passage..

This resort was totally unacceptable and has gone downhill since I stayed here many years ago. It is in desperate need of repair and updating and really needs a thorough cleaning. You would not want to walk barefoot in the unit because your feet would turn black. The decor was awful, nothing matched and was very uncomfortable. |The kitchen was totally difficult to work in, |It was so small and very poorly engineered. The floor tiles were cracking everywhere and fixed with duct tape. The elevator quit working at some point every day and on checkout day it broke twice. The bathroom was not cleaned properly and there were nasty stains in theToilet. I would not recommend this place to anyone! The only good thing was the location and unfortunately the week I was there there was a red tide an

this is predominately a time share resort. we chose to do a vacation exchange to stay here at the windward passage resort. this place isn't going to win any beauty contest or be clumped in with 4 star resorts, but what it does have to offer makes it a great place to stay in FMB.||#1 it is location is perfect. about 1/2 mile down the road from the "times square" shopping area & all the chaos, there are tons of restaurants nearby, close access to bridge to get off island, and close to accessing sanibel & captiva islands.||#2 the beach is great. it is primarily private. the resort offers FREE lounge chairs that you can use on the beach. they even offer cushion & umbrella rentals for like only $10 FOR USE FOR THE WHOLE WEEK. cheap! remember to bring your own beach towel, they don't offer them.

Went to Fort Myers for the first time ever, had a beach front condo that was a single bedroom but was absolutely adorable for a couple. The only downside to this property is the tenants would start there laundry and then go to the beach for hrs not allowing anyone else to use the machines. Besides that I recommend it, the traffic was a bit to much coming on the Island. It would take about :15 mi minutes to get off the Island but :45 minutes to an hr to return, account of people trying to get to the beach. The sunsets was BEAUTIFUL
