This property is absolutely beautiful. My family enjoyed our stay just as much as the last time. If you are looking for a gome away from home this is definitely it. Property manager is wonderful and the owners are just as nice. Thank you all for all that you do.

My family is from Palacios and we have stayed at several homes there and this is by far the best home we have stayed in. My mother passed away on Monday morning and we decided to still go to Palacios and celebrate her. I will definitely be staying here again. The property was fully furnished. Plenty of towels, kitchen essentials and games for the kids. Not to mention the cable was a plus.

Came for a brief family visit & it was just what we were looking for. Clean, spacious! Loved that the bedrooms were on opposite sides of the house so everyone had their privacy. Quick walk to the water & had enjoyed feeding the outside cats 😊

The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped. The large front porch provided a nice place to sit, visit and view the bay. Palacios is a very small town and super quiet in the evenings. Fair Winds is perfect for visiting with family and friends and relaxing.

It was a very nice property to stay at. Looked exactly the same as the pictures shown. So close to the beach and not a far drive to Matagorda where we love to go as well.

Such a beautiful house with everything you need! Everything was clean and fresh, the beds and linens were so soft, over abundance of towels and supplies. I have nothing negative to say! We comfortably enjoyed our stay, and will definitely be back!

We had the best stay here. The home is very well warm and inviting and equipped with everything you need for a great stay. We cooked most of our meals in and the kitchen was well suited and stocked for doing so. The location is great with the pier, park, and water just down the street. We hope to stay again the next time we visit.

The property owner is very sweet and accommodating, and the property was very clean, decorated nicely, and check in was a breeze. Definitely recommend for a nice relaxing retreat by the bay, and I plan on renting this property on our next visit if available!

We kept our sailboat in Palacios when we lived in the area, 20 years ago. We looked for and found this wonderful property, just a block from Matagorda Bay. It was beautifully restored by the current owner. It is a convenient location to walk to the park along the bay or to the small downtown area. It has a nice big porch across the front of the house, that is in the shade in the evening. It had one full size bed and one King size bed, each with its own private bedroom, along with a bathroom with shower/tub combo. The kitchen was well equipped but it does not have a dishwasher. That wasn't a concern since we went out to eat for most meals. The only draw back was the seating in the living room. There was a couch and 2 side chairs. It was fine for the two of us but might be a drawback for a larger group. It was decorated in a nautical theme but very tastefully done. There were games and puzzles available. We will definitely return to stay here in the future!

The place was clean and well stocked with dishes and utensils. The house was clean and well maintained. No bugs. The neighborhood cat slept on the porch and loves scraps. Close to the boat launch and fishing pier. Will stay there again.

Wonderful!
Very welcoming and clean. The beds were super comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked however there are couple of restaurants within a few minutes walk if you did not want to cook. The bay was also just a few minutes walk. Everyone was very friendly. Needless to say we had a very relaxing time.

What a pleasant stay at Fair Winds! Mornings with the sea breeze, a cup of sunshine, the Beacon, and the house cat to pet! Short walks to the beach, pier, coffee shop and of course J's Cravings!
