Located on approximately 2,020 acres of pristine coastal dune, wetlands and forested shoreline, WindMark Beach is designed for a relaxed, elevated lifestyle. You’ll be walking or biking along shaded trail systems, boardwalks and a 3.5-mile BeachWalk that stretches beside the water- great for morning jogs, sunset strolls or simply inhaling deep gulf-air calm.

We had three adults and three children and absolutely loved the house. The kids had a blast in the pool and walking back and forth to the beach on the boardwalks. The house had everything we needed for the week. The owner was easy to talk to and available when needed.
The property was very clean and ideally located for access to the beach. The pool and the pool area very clean.Didn't use the Green Egg, but the Weber grill worked great!Great community close to downtown, but enough away to be quiet. The subdivision had a nice little array of shops and food services as well. The landscaping and flowers were very pretty and well kept.A definite do over in the future!!
Property was lovely and as described. Kitchen was well equipped, house had all the necessities, and we enjoyed our stay. The gas, heated hot tub was the cherry on top, especially since the weather was colder than anticipated. Highly recommend!

Host was welcoming, accommodating, and responsive. The home was AMAZING! Loved the location, just a quick walk to the beach. Love the relaxed vibe of the area. The pool and hot tub were beautiful. Was able to pay to heat the pool, which made the trip
This is a fun house to stay at. Close to the beach area, walking paths, and the central area of the neighborhood. The pool is the perfect size along with the common areas of the house. We are looking forward to our next stay.
What a great home! So close to the beach. The inside was gorgeous and the pool was so refreshing! So nice to jump in each evening! We couldn't say more nice things about this house! Will definitely return!!
This was our fourth time in PSJ and third time in Windmark. We love this community and this rental was our favorite. It’s such a quiet family friendly community and beach. The owner of this property was very helpful and had excellent communication with us, from his welcome email with lots of tips in it to his text check in with us. We can’t wait to come back!
Just returned from a stay at Vista Blu and it was fantastic all around. The home is well decorated in a great walkable community and close to the beach! We enjoyed both the walkable restaurants as well as the very close Port Saint Joe area. The WindMark community is such a beautiful community and we really enjoyed biking and walking through the development. The home has everything on your checklist to relax and feel at home. The pool and spa were definitely our favorites as well as both the front and back porch. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.
We enjoyed our stay so much! My mother-in-law, father-in-law, husband, 4 children (20, 12, 7, and 1), and myself all enjoyed our trip. The ease of access to the beach straight off the board walk, private pool, cute neighborhood, & nearby pizza and ice cream helped us make a memorable vacation. Joey was quick to respond when needed, and helpful. The house was clean and we had access to everything we needed. We feel in love with Port Saint Joe, and the relaxing atmosphere.
If you are looking for a spacious house that has easy access to the beach and is in a beautiful community, this is it! Took my family "3 adults and 3 kids" to this area of florida for the first time. It was absolutely perfect! House is 100% as advertised was very clean upon arrival. My kids loved the pool and playing at the beach which was never packed like Panama city and other popular beach spots near here. We would absolutely stay here again!
The house was wonder.Beach was two minutes away and the neighborhood was so nice. Master bed was very nice. Screened in porch was so peaceful in the afternoon . Love the community. Pighky wiggly less than 5 minutes away. Dog loving community
Overall, this is a great place for relaxing family vacation. Owner is very responsive. Only trade-off was having a nice walkable neighborhood and a private swimming pool, with a less than desirable beach.
This property was more than a vacation rental. It felt like a home. Very nice place and kid friendly. They thought of everything we could've ever needed! The child proof gates to the pool provided peace of mind. Friendly neighborhood with short walk to the beach. Special thanks to the host for being helpful and responsive.
We had such a great time! The house is clean and decorated beautifully. We loved hanging at the pool in the backyard and it was a short walk to the beach made it convenient. We had 2 bonfires on the beach. The neighborhood is also wonderful for families. There were events in the evening and restaurants that make it easy if you don’t want to drive. We will definitely be back.
This property was incredible! My husband and I stayed with our two kids (5 & 7) and the house was perfect. From the sunsets on the back screened in porch to the amazing pool in the community - we loved it! Joey our host communicated well and so helpful before and during our stay. We can’t wait to go back next year and rent again! Thank you so much Joey for an amazing week!
