Windaroo is a residential suburb in the outer southern areas of the City of Logan, Queensland, Australia. In the 2021 census, Windaroo had a population of 2,771 people.

The suburb is located 4 km south of Beenleigh and 36 km south-east of central Brisbane, bounded to the north by Windaroo Creek, to the east by the Albert River, to the south by Bannockburn Road, and to the west by Beaudesert–Beenleigh Road.

The suburb was named after the Windaroo sugar plantation, one of several nineteenth century enterprises along the Albert River. The area remained essentially rural until the late 1970s, when a rural residential estate, Windaroo Acres, was subdivided, with the land being first released for sale in 1983, prior to this, the land was used for dairying.

The suburb was named and bounded on 1 June 1981.

Windaroo State School opened on 28 January 1992. It is now within neighbouring Mount Warren Park.

Windaroo Valley State High School opened on 1 January 1994. It is now within neighbouring Bahrs Scrub.

On Sunday 29 October 2000, the Windaroo Australian Peacekeepers Memorial was dedicated to military personnel and civilians who had served in Australia's peace-keeping missions.
