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.

Nothing short of amazing!
Great accommodations for our family of 18. There was a ton of room for everyone and even for those that wanted quiet time while inside. Everyone was amazed that we are all able to be comfortable!! Just about a fully stocked kitchen where we didn’t need anything other than food. The fire pit was a nice surprise and great for roasting marshmallows for s'more's. Perfect for large groups or small groups needing or wanting some privacy while together.

Nice getaway from the Spring Break crowds
This house was perfect for my family of 13. Everyone had plenty of space to be comfortable and have privacy when needed. And the living room and kitchen areas are huge and great for having everyone in the same place at the same time! Being right on the beach is amazing. The views from the deck are great. Fire-pit came in handy too. Good restaurants were close enough if we needed to get out. Other people have mentioned that the cleaning crew could do better and that would be our only complaint as well. When we arrived there was already some sand on the ground from the beach - to be expected at the beach, but I don't expect that from the moment we walk in. WIth the astronomical cleaning fees you pay on these vacation sites it should be cleaner than that when you walk in. There were old food crumbs in the living room on the rug. The rug in general looked like it had never been vacuumed. If you are a OCD clean freak this might not be the place for you. BUT had 3 families with a bunch of crazy kids, so for us it wasn't a big deal!

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.

Beach trip for the whole family
We had a houseful of family this week at this home. The good stuff: The home was large and accommodating. The beds were comfy. The kitchen was large and the refrigerator space ample. There were two dishwashers. The contact staff are very responsive. Washer and dryer in good working order. The firepit was a hit! The not so good stuff: The one and only area carpet in the home needs to be replaced or cleaned. The couch smelled. Some of the blinds were in disrepair. It took about a day to figure out how to sync our WIFI. The contact person was extremely helpful but was unaware of the additional router that had been installed and was working off outdated or old information. We stumbled upon the additional router and were able to connect without help. There was a broom but no dustpan. We purchased one. There was no vacuum for the carpet. We were told there was enough flatware for our crew (26) – there were less than ten spoons. None of the lids matched the cookware. The refrigerator alarm went off the entire five days about every 5 minutes or so, depending on how the refrigerator doors were closed. It was maddening. We called and they sent out a repairman who did not remedy the problem but told us that the refrigerator needed a filter. There wasn’t closet space in two bedrooms. Tight quarters there. The upstairs master has no doors into the master bath – awkward. We purchased two spring loaded curtain rods with curtains for both access doors. Large beach home

Great beach access
The house was nice size…Kitchen/breakfast room/ living area was great for the 20 of us that were there. Front deck was wonderful for morning coffee and evening drinks. Beach access is the best! ( just walk through the dunes and you’re there) We had an issue with coffee pot but was resolved that day (Thank You!) The only negatives were… the house needs some TLC with deep cleaning, new kitchen ware and please fix pantry door (only opens part way). The upstairs loft (full size mattress) does not have its own AC, so very hot. We were unable to use it. These few negatives did not take away from our wonderful time together and we would book again provided some improvements are done. (Our stay was at the end of the season.)

Family gathering
Great beach house and location. Had a family gathering of 13 adults, 4 small children. Not all spent night but plenty of beds, room to spread out and relax. Steps away from beach. Everything we needed for a memorable family event. The property and management delivered as promised. Only a few maintenance issues needs to be addressed but did not interfere with the enjoyment of the beach house.

Family Reunion
We chose this house because of it's location (on the beach) and size (32 beds/8 bedrooms advertised). We had 9 family units coming so needed the space. The location did not disappoint! Beautiful beach views and proximity was wonderful! My 91yo mother was able to sit on the deck in the warmth and enjoy watching the youngsters in the water. We tried to get privacy and easy access to bathrooms for each family unit and were actually able to kinda. Since there wasn't a floor plan available it was difficult to assign spaces. The pictures gave a little different view than it was actually. But, everyone was satisfied with their space. We did have to make one change because of beds being directly on the floor and the lack of doors on the bath on the 3rd floor was a game changer. After we arrived we found some issues (drawers & cabinet doors not able to close, stains on rugs, light not working, pantry door sticking, ants in and on all beds in bedroom on ground floor - partly because of crumbs on the bed, ants everywhere). All addressed and taken care of to our satisfaction although the light not working was never fixed - we just moved a lamp from another room. We brought folding tables and chairs so everyone had places to sit for meals and relaxing. We were told by a local on the beach that the property was constantly rented so we understand why some things were the way they were. Overall, the stay was wonderful and we would return.
