The development includes many one story and two story pool houses, and two different styles of condo buildings. While Windsor Hills, a resort built after this one, has pool houses designed for short term renters, Windsor Palms pool houses are designed more like a residence and has more of a home style appeal.
The gated community includes a guard house manned 24x7. There are over 3.5 miles of sidewalks for walking, jogging, or bike riding.
The club house is a real gem. It includes sundry shop with basic groceries and souveneers. An arcade, gym, showers, and sitting area. A pool bar serves drinks and food. The movie theater sits fifty people and guests can select movies from a large library. There is a large pool area with plenty of deck area and deck furniture. The club house includes basketball courts, tennis, and a sand volleyball court. All services can be seen by watching the community's TV station channel 998.
The community has daily trash pick up by a "garbage barge" (a golf cart pulling a trailer). All lawn are maintained by a work crew so there won't be concerns if a neighbor neglects their property.
Negatives? The resort offers bus rides to the parks for $13 per person, that seemed expensive. The resort also backs to a water reclamation area with a giant water tower.
If you visit the community, you might wonder why there are two guard houses: one by the bridge entrance, and one unused except by the facilities crews. It turns out that the bridge crosses a highway that was build after the resort was built. The highway was built around 2005 and blocked entrance into the resort. To fix the problem, a bridge was built over the highway, requiring a new guard house.
We had a great time at the resort and wouldn't hesitate for another opportunity to stay there.
