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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Let me start by saying the views and beach access were absolutely amazing and beautiful! However, that is all the good I can say for this specific property. We had many issues right off the bat from ac unit not working, hot water heater out, broken bed, coffee maker and toaster not working, as well as, stove and refrigerator were both in need of replacing. Freezer section of the refrigerator was going out during our stay so unfortunately some food was lost due to this inconvenience. Property also had some plumbing issues where pipes where left exposed and leaking sewage. Lastly, it appeared to be part of a broken dock ramp that was left on the beach with rusty nails exposed all around it that was very unsafe for my little ones. The Property Management Team was difficult in the beginning, but finally did replace the coffee maker and toaster, fixed the hot water heater and ac units that where out, and replaced the broken bed frame with the correct size box springs by our last night there. Plumbing issue and refrigerator issues were never addressed during our stay. Property Manager with The Management Team advised he would get with the owners to see what compensation could be made for our inconveniences but unfortunately I didn’t hear anything more from him. We were a group of 30 with 8 little ones. For a family vacation, I can not recommend this property. If you are looking for a party house where just about anything goes, this would be the perfect place.

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.
