Would love to move in

hi, ever since we visited Windjammer, we cannot wait to move in as soon as possible.. the place is very quiet, nice, pretty and well maintained. the staff is nice.

I don't like it

Two bedrooms w/one bath doesn't work out. It should have one bath for each bedroom. Another problem is no walk in closets, no computer room.

Property Manager at Windjammer Cove Apartments, Responded To This Review

All of these things pertain to the layout of the unit, which one would know BEFORE renting. These are also completely based on your personal tastes in an apartment and do not describe anything actually wrong...
