Hello private beachfront paradise! The main level great room is completely open, with a wall of windows facing the sea. Vaulted ceilings add to the modern and airy vibe. Outside through the glass doors, an oceanfront deck beckons you to slip out of your flip flops and relax on one of the comfortable lounge chairs. Listen to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore and the call of the seagulls as you soak up the sun or sit in the shade with a frosty cocktail.

The stylish kitchen features a huge quartz-topped island— 30 feet long! White cabinets, two dishwashers, and a commercial-grade refrigerator face the ocean views, while additional glass-front cabinets and workspaces are around the corner. There is ample seating between the seats at the island and the nearby dining table. Your whole family will love to gather together in this bright space over warm mugs of coffee in the mornings or cocktails at happy hour. A door off the kitchen leads into a convenient laundry room and pantry.

Down the hallway, a guest bedroom suite has a king-size bed and a full attached bathroom. Two more bedrooms each have king-sized beds. Two flexible bunk rooms have two twin-over-twin-size built-in bunks. Two full bathrooms can be accessed from both hallways.

On the third floor, a guest bedroom has a full-size bed and a cozy reading nook. Across the way, another bedroom has a king-size bed and attached bunk room with two full-size beds and four-twin size beds. This spacious room also has a sun-drenched, private balcony with show-stopping ocean views. The ensuite bathroom has a deep soaking tub and step-in shower.

On the ground floor, a game room and hang-out space has one queen-size and two full-size beds. An outdoor shower is ideal after a sandy day at the shore. The spacious covered patio has a barbeque grill, picnic tables, and a swaying hammock for an afternoon siesta in the shade. To get to the beach, simply walk over your private weathered boardwalk and down into the warm sand and salty surf of the Gulf of Mexico. Westwind is a flawless, private beachfront paradise on the Texas coast.

Great location! Great home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A perfect location immediately on the beach! So many bedroom options for children and adults! More beds than we knew what to do with. Communication was quite effective with the management. There were a few broken kitchen cabinets and messy drawers but it did not negatively effect our stay whatsoever.

Best view & beach access!

Our group of 14 loved it. Most bunk rooms we’ve ever seen. The living room, kitchen & dining room was larger than it looks online & great view of the beach. It rained on & off all week, but we could all be in this space without feeling crowded, and then run barefoot to the beach when it quit! Had a problem with 1 air conditioner, but repairman came immediately. It is showing some wear & tear, but that is normal at the older, right on the beach houses. We would definitely stay again!

House needs work

I do like the set up but a lot needs work on the house and things are incomplete. Had some issues and for the price don’t think I should have had them. All trash bins were overflowing in front of house when we got there, a sprinkler was damaged, downstairs was dirty and bbq pit was dirty and the main frig was not working. We did have a good time but just unhappy with all the things that were wrong. I felt like I spent more time dealing with what was wrong.

5 star location with some maintenance issues

Spectacular Gulf view & beach access. House is very comfortable, well-decorated & roomy, with ample bedding, dishes, pots, flatware, glasses, for 20 people. Maintenance was below expectations: disposal on/off switch inoperable, refrigerator alarm went off more than10 times in 2 days including 2:30 a.m., leaking faucet in master bath, fire alarm set itself off when there was no smoke or fire. Check-in did not follow the written process; we had to call and message multiple times after 4 p.m. for the access code and did not receive it until 4:20.

This beach house is not qualify to be put on the market, it so so old and dirty. When we arrived there was multiple trash cans over filled with old food located right in front of the house with disgusting smell fly everywhere and can’t believe it’s dirty and old to the point there was maggots all over the floor. when we got in to the house the floor cover with sand and the whole property needs lots of fixing. In the evening we saw multiple big roaches crawling around the house. Overall this is a big mistake for our family we paid lots of money to return with this crappies services.

Family Reunion

We had a wonderful time with our family of 24 which included adults, teens, young children, and toddlers. Our stay was June 12-17th. The house is spacious and very family friendly…. and It’s right on the beach. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, cookware, utensils, small appliances, and a large fridge. The living room is large and a great place to gather. This home was even better than we expected. We were pleasantly surprised to find a large walk-in pantry. The bar in the kitchen is even longer than it looks in the photos. There is a picnic table on the balcony and 2 picnic tables on the patio downstairs which are not shown in the photos. You are steps from the beach, and the beach was not crowded at all. Cars are not allowed on the beach, so it was safe for the children to play in the sand without worrying about them getting ran over by a car. Russell, the owner, was very easy to work with and answered any questions or concerns. Our family loved this home, and we can’t wait until our next reunion!

Beautiful beach views and clean place! The bunk bed configurations were quite nice with easy stairs to come down from the top bunks as we had 23 people. The beach was nice and clean and access to the beach were steps away from the property. The only thing I'd say is wear your shoes on the balcony as there were some nail heads that were sticking out a bit. Otherwise 5/5!

My church group stayed at this property. It's a nice property with amazing views, plenty of beds, and a nice layout. Direct beach access and an outside shower is great. We did run into some of the problems listed by other reviews - main fridge was out of service and the three smaller fridges provided didn't work well. Kitchen sink and dishwashers were clogged. Outside trash receptacles were full. The maintenance team did respond and came out to flush out the plumbing. They were great, but it was definitely disruptive as they had to shut the water off for awhile. They weren't able to address the trash or fridge situation, so we had to make do with the situation. Otherwise, The property was nicely maintained and we did have a great time. Would stay with them again if they address those issues.

Read all reviews before booking

The home was spacious and accommodating for our out of town adult family gathering. However, I should have read the reviews prior to booking. We struggled getting AC in one of the bedrooms, limiting one of our married couples to using bunk beds. The main refrigerator in the kitchen did not work, spoiling food that was frozen and the milk for our coffee in the morning. This was previously posted in a June review. The outside garbage cans were full from a previous guest so we struggled depositing our trash; this complaint was previously posted in another review. One of the dishwashers did not work and had there been a note on it indicating it was broken, I would not have loaded dirty dishes in it just to remove and load them into the other dishwasher. Again, this was mentioned in an earlier review. We reported most of these issues a few hours after checking in and I get it, Friday after 5pm, isn’t the ideal time for a management company to have to deal with issues. We were asked by the management company to take pictures of the issues we reported, which we did both Friday night and again Saturday morning. This was the only response we received from the management company: take pictures.

Wonderful space and a Beautiful View

This house was perfect for our extended family vacation! Plenty of sleeping space for everyone to be comfortable including fun bunk rooms for the cousins! The living space was spacious and comfortable as was the kitchen and dining areas. The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware and dishes. The main fridge wasn't working which was a little annoying, but there were multiple fridges in the kitchen area and so there was still plenty of space to keep all of our perishables cold. The view was spectacular! The game room was an extra perk that the teens enjoyed. We loved the direct beach access and enjoyed so much time out on the beach and in the waves. We would definitely be interested in staying here again in the future!

Amazing beach access!

First, I would stay here again for the massive windows and the views you get from them! The large sofa and two blue chairs in the living room are very comfortable. The kitchen in roomy but a little run down. Everything works fine but the main frig didn't work, so we used the other one in the corner. You literally walk from the back yard right onto the beach, no bridge or anything!Pros:Every bed has a comfortable mattressPlenty of nice bathroomsBeach views from all but three rooms (Bunk rooms)The two balconies give wonderful viewsThe fire pit is a nice plusOutdoor showerGreat neighborhood, nice and quietArcade gamesConsAll quilts on the beds are thin, it would be helpful to have more blankets in a closet or somethingPlenty of plates, bowls, knives, need more spoons and forks (enough spoons and forks for maybe 8 people)No bathroom on the ground levelGood to know before packing:Small soaps and shampoo, bring your own if you're staying for a whileBring more paper towelsNo beach towels, chairs or toys (they can be rented)No seasonings other than salt and pepperNo foil, plastic wrap or food storage containersThis doesn't have all the amenities most houses I've stayed at offer. The pictures look amazing but it does need some TLC, especially in the kitchen. Keep that in mind and you won't be disappointed. It can hold a lot of people comfortably.

Nice Place

Pros: Nice place, with great views. AC is pretty good. Couch is very comfy with plenty comfy of beds as well. Perfect beach access. Well stocked kitchen with utensils but some of the drawers Cons: There were some mice droppings in one of the rooms. The deck had numerous nails sticking up. Two of the games in the game room had worn out controllers and weren’t playable. The internet wasn’t working initially but we were able to connect to the router directly as a bypass. Some of the bunk beds had missing wood with nails exposed.

Pictures are deceiving

First impression when we arrived there, property looking old and worn-out. Unpainted exterior greeted us. Next was the missing outdoor grill. I have reported to the owners as soon as we got there as we intend to use it to cook our dinner on our 1st night. When the owners were finally convinced that it was indeed missing, they said they were going to deliver a new one the next day. Made several follow ups the morning after only to have the grill delivered not until noon. By that time, my family especially the kids were all starving. And as what the previous reviews stated, there were black molds around different parts of the house. But seems the owners don’t do anything about it. Be careful with the water dripping from the AC on the right side balcony facing the beach. Lastly, on our 2nd night we noticed this funky smell. Turns out it was from their overflowing/ leaking outdoor sewage right under the property. So disappointed. Would not recommend.

Dirty

The property was nice but it felt very dirty. There was sand at the entrance and on the entire kitchen level . The first 2 hours that we were there my wife and daughter spent cleaning. We all had to sweep and clean with clorox wipes. I do not think that the linen had been changed. The trash cans were completely full when we checked in. We had to buy large trash bags so that we would have some way of getting rid of our trash. My wife spoke with management and they said that a maintenance man would come over to pick up the trash. Then she received a text stating that the trash would be picked up the next morning. The trash was still there when we left which was Sunday morning. My wife and I had to clean the sand in the bar-b-que area because it was present all the way to the door. We wanted to use the water hose to wash the area but the hose could not be connected. We had to buy a hose to wash the area. Once the area was cleaned we could then put in a blow up pool for the little one. The pool could not be put up until we cleaned. Since we bought a hose we could then fill the pool. The facility is too nice to have such poor maintenance and cleaning.

Vacation Stay

I believe the home was designed for the "spring break" crowd. It has a great location. I would do some landscape trimming on the hedges separating the property from the beach. I would sweep the sand off of the patio underneath by the fire pit. The biggest issue that would prevent us from staying there again is they made this a place for kids on spring break. They took the walk in closet in the master bedroom on the top floor and made it into 6 or 8 person bedroom. Not everything is flip flops and cut off jeans. We dine at some of the nicer restaurants and need a place to hang our clothes when we stay somewhere. There was no space for clothes in the home. The cleaning crew would rate a 6 on a 1 to 10 here. Many things cleaned barely on the surface. There is mold throughout the home. The home needs a paint job or the wood weatherproofed. And not so good workmanship on things like the patio floors. Uneven and lacking the proper fit with exposed nails. This place could be made into a fabulous vacation home, which right now, it is not. We stay usually at a different location each year for our family reunion. Some we revisit. This is not on that list. It may be perfect for 25 or 30 college kids just looking for a place to "crash", but that is not us.
