The north end of Estero Island, Fort Myers Beach, is the most desired location. One thing that makes it desirable is the fact that it is fairly quick to get on and off the island's north end. Once you get over the bridge to the island, it is a quick drive to the Windward Passage Resort. Other things are the several restaurants and shops located in the Time Square area, which are a very short stroll away. The north end is known as the quiet end because of very little traffic. Bowditch Park is also very close to the resort and has a beach, picnic tables, short walking paths, and a public restroom. There is also a lunch counter that is sometimes open.
If you prefer not to walk or drive, you can take a trolley that goes from one end of the Island to the other. One of the trolley stops is right in front of the Windward Passage Resort. There are additional restaurants and attractions a short drive away. The Edison and Ford Homes are one of the attractions that is a must visit. They are open daily for tours.
Our condo at the Windward Passage Resort is a timeshare week. Therefore, there is no cleaning fee after departure. During your stay, there is no daily cleaning services unless you request them for an extra charge. A free bedding and towel exchange is offered mid-week. The resort also offers activities and shared meals that you can participate in. The sign-up for these activities and meals are at the office on the ground level. The office is open from 9-5 Monday thru Friday, 9-4 on Saturday, and closed on Sunday.
