Have you considered getting a higher grade of fan or adding a second fan? There are several grades of fans. Also a light tube does wonders in a bathroom.

I recommend putting in a Panasonic Whisper Choice exhaust fan and a separate timer at rhe switch plate (don’t get the more expensive one with the built-in sensor. These are much quieter than most fans, and they exhaust 110 cubic feet per minute, compared to probably 40 for what you probably have now. Use the timer, set for an hour. Probably that will leave your shower walls dry, and your towels, too. Panasonic is the top-rated by both the Journal of Light Construction and Consumers Reports. Having an open window in your bathroom lets in a lot of humid air that then has to be cooled and dehumidified by your air conditioner. This exhaust fan is cheaper by far than the extra AC.
They are sold at Lowe’s and Home Depot, but unless you are very good at this sort of thing, hire someone to put it in for you.
