Very clean, great location on the water, uncrowded beach access!
Very clean interior, and while the building is an older building it has been maintained over the years. The best feature is the reserved beach access which provides ample room without crowding. According to the chair attendant, a beach umbrella/chair set is provided with the the rental and I highly recommended reserving a set.

Great Location!
Our family loved this condo and the easy access it provided to the beach!
The location of this property is perfect! Easy to get to, close to stores and restaurants, and its proximity to the beach, pool, and grill area cannot be beat!
Just a weekend getaway for my wife and I. First floor condo right next to the pool with a beach view. Tons of restaurant choices. We would do it again.
The condo was perfect for walking right out to beach or pool, clean and neat.

We will be back!
We have stayed all along the gulf coast and this condo was our favorite! The quick access to the beach was amazing and so convenient, especially with kids! We were afraid of the privacy being on first floor but had no issues at all. The condo is small and quaint but was perfect for our family of 4 including a 10 and 15 year old. They actually really enjoyed the bunk beds. In fact it was darker for them in the mornings than us in our room. The bathroom is tight but it’s so nice having separate toilets and bathroom counters. The view from the condo is just amazing! I will say a few things and only cause I hope they fix these things before our next stay cause like I said we loved it! The patio door really needs to have the track cleaned. It was next to impossible to open and close it, in fact I hurt my back doing it and I’m an avid gym person, it was just really hard to open and close. The kitchen desperately needs a good cooking pan. It only had 2 super tiny ones and a wok style pan. A broom would also be so nice! There is a vacuum but the sand began to pile up. I typically sweep and mop daily at beach condos to help with sand all over, especially in the beds but everything just got sandy. And lastly, some darker curtains in the bedroom would go so far. The window is next to a bright light so the room was very light at night. All in all, we loved this condo and the 1st floor access. A few tweaks would make it perfect but we will definitely be back!!!
We enjoyed the location very much and being near the pool on the ground level was great. Beach service was awesome. Could use some updated furniture in the living room. Overall it was nice and we enjoyed it!
We had a great trip. We have stayed at Windancer many times and live the convenience of the first floor. Some suggestions would be to update refrigerator to one with an ice maker, lamps in living room, upgrade tv package, and maybe seating in living room. Although we would definitely book again.
The location was absolutely perfect. We don’t like being in the hustle & bustle of everything so this was perfect for us! The beach attendant was awesome! So helpful & courteous. Definitely will stay here again. The only suggestion I have would be a Ice maker in the freezer.
Love the location! Steps from the pool, a few steps to the grill, a few more steps to the beach - can't beat that! The condo was very clean and comfortable. The owner might consider updating the patio furniture and adding a few more dishes in the kitchen. Other than that, we enjoyed this condo!
The sliding glass doors were broken and the manager didn’t get back to us even though we were there a full week. I couldn’t open or close them. Neither could my daughter.
My family has stayed in these condos for 5 years now and things started off great. This was by far the worst stay yet. There were bugs everywhere including roaches. I think they need to put more focus on the cleanliness of the units. We also saw possible signs of bedbugs which freaked us out so we requested a move. They accommodated our request promptly and got us a new room. Due to that I am giving more than a 1 star rating. I was told the property manager was going to reach out to make things right and we never heard anything back.
This property is on the first floor directly on the beach which is great.
The inside is spacious and well decorated. However, the tv channels are very very limited leaving not many choices if a rainy day (or to watch basketball playoffs).
WiFi was ok. Kitchen was partially supplied (no Kuerig) only a coffee maker, but bring everything you need to make coffee (coffee filter, etc)
The rental is on the first floor adjacent to the ramp to bring rolling bags or carts and can be noisy at all hours of the day/night.
We loved the location of the property and the fact that we got the beach service for free. Unfortunately the rest of the experience was not that great. The unit is on first floor so can hear EVERY footstep from the above unit, very annoying. The unit is right at the elevator also, so you have outside noise as well. The sliding glass door to go out to patio doesnt open and close very well. You have to have super powers to open and close it. The patio furniture is not what is shown in the pictures. The furniture that is there is rusted and worn out. Very limited channels on TV. No smart tv either so you cant log into streaming apps. The couch, chair and bar stools were all nasty dirty. We layed a sheet over them before we sat down. Over all kinda dissapointed with the place for the price we paid.
Great location, but needs some deep cleaning and some sprucing up.
Pros: great location, beach service is great. Ac works great. Nice views.
Cons: floor was dirty ( turned my feet black), chunks of food in the dishwasher. Hair on the dishes. One of the skillets has Teflon peeling off of it…. No whisk or complete set of measuring cups or spoons. No pot holder either(burnt hand trying to get food out of the oven with a towel). The couch is absolutely disgusting, we put a sheet on it while there. It definitely needs replaced. You get like 5-10 channels which wouldn’t be a problem if it was a smart tv and you could log into your own apps but it’s not. The fridge doesn’t have an ice maker. It’s 2023 all refrigerators in Florida rentals should have this IMO.The living room rug is super uncomfortable to walk on and also needs cleaned/replaced. You can hear everything the upstairs tenants do, walk, flush toilet etc. The mattress could also do with a replacement. The outdoor furniture has seen better days. Would I stay here again? I don’t know. Maybe a in a different (cleaner)unit.

We booked this condo to celebrate our 10 year anni/babymoon for second baby. We’ve stayed in this building before and loved it, especially the complimentary beach service. We started with the AC not working and spent several hours trying to get in touch with someone to fix it. Upon coming in from the beach to shower, my husband noticed a rag laying over the drain with the stopper on top. When he removed it he realized there was NO piping underneath. You could literally see the ground, sand and the pipes laying there. The shower looked to be newly installed, but obviously not completed. How was this not reported by cleaning crew?! Several hours of phone calls later and maintenance showed at 9 pm only to fail at attempting to “McGyver” the shower. We basically wasted our whole first day on the phone with this rental company. Luckily we were moved to another condo and it was very nice. We were also refunded for the day we wasted and given complimentary beach service at our new condo. HOWEVER, I had to ask for all of these things, nothing was offered. Would they have actually moved us, refunded us and honored our beach service if I hadn’t been pregnant, tired and demanded they make things right-who knows, but it’s doubtful. So overall, we were disappointed. I would check if the shower is fixed before coming if you already have a reservation. Shoutout to Amoye Bingham who took care of us and was so kind with getting us moved at 12 pm. She deserves a raise.
The condo was very nice and spacious. We only have a couple of complaints. The TV had VERY FEW channels. HGTV And a sports channel or two would have been nice. There were only two bowls and two regular drinking glasses. Those need to be replenished because the dish washer wasn’t needed since the things we needed had to be washed daily. Other than those items everything was great.
