Condo Complex under Construction!
Windward Bay is a Complex of 7 buildings. The entire resort is undergoing serious renovations. After our third day , the Jack hammering and buzzing began at our building. The owner did NOT disclose any construction . He responded that he was unaware and to “please be patient .” The noise was great; it eclipsed any ability to have a conversation, let alone to work remotely . We sent audio and video samples to the seller . His response was that in speaking to other owners , they said the noise wasn’t “intolerable.” Seriously ! They will benefit from improvements; we were on vacation ! Furthermore, he corrected me when I said it was a “jackhammer” and correctly called it “ a hand held impact rotary hammer.” I tried to come to terms with the seller and asked for either an extension of six days (we rented for 30) , or a monetary compensation. He choose not to accommodate. I am a former VRBO owner and I know how impactful these reviews can be and truly did not want to jade the owners’ prospects for rental income. The specific unit is clean albeit with dated furniture. The mattress in the master bedroom is horrid and needs replacement. Only one person can sleep comfortably in the middle. The kitchen is very well stocked and the views of the mangroves and Bay are fantastic. The pools are nice but a distance from the unit I thoroughly recommend LongBoat Key but be careful in considering WindWard Bay condos
