About this house rental

There's plenty of room for your family and friends to relax at the newly-renovated Heels in the Sand beach house. This large home with elevator is located just 65 steps from the beach walkover, where professionally-cleaned wide gulf beaches await. Sleeps 13; 15 including the sofa bed in the living room. The huge kitchen with two islands allows space for all of the chefs. A large family room spills onto the huge front porch, screened-in sitting room, and back deck, assuring that you and your guests have plenty of room to spread out on vacation. A screened-in rec room on the ground floor provides ping pong and a large screen TV without the mosquitoes. Grill out on the back deck and dine at the table that seats 10 and island that seats 5.

Amenities abound when you purchase a Pointe West wristband ($25 per person for your stay). Pointe West has two community pools (one at the Beach Club with a hot tub and a heated one Bayside with a small lazy river), fitness club, game room, pickle ball court, basketball, and poolside bar and restaurant (opening mid-Summer 2023) and plenty of golf cart paths encourage fun for all ages. We recommend renting a golf car or bikes to cruise Pointe West in style.

First off, I want to say take my review with a grain of salt. Our visit was right after Hurricane Beryl so some of our issues were related to that, and it rained a lot so we were stuck in the house most of the time. That being said, overall the house suited our needs. We had 3 separate families, including 5 kids from 6-to 13 and 2 grandparents. Our biggest complaint was that the air conditioner restricted us from going below 72. With this Texas heat, that seemed quite ridiculous. Nobody slept well because it was hot and humid at night. The dishwasher needs replacing. None of the dishes came out clean. The handle on one of the toilets was broken and had to be rigged with a screw driver. There was an ant problem in the kitchen and all our food in the cabinets was covered in ants. That could definitely be from the hurricane. The staircases are not conducive for small children. Several people fell on them.

Our stay was great despite it being after Hurricane Beryl. Unfortunately, the internet was out due to the storm for our stay, but we still had a blast. Very family friendly. The owner, Elizabeth, and manager, Christine, quickly responded to our concerns and so nice. Thank you both for checking on us. We were a large group of 13 and there was room for all of us. The private beach access was awesome and a short walk away. One of our top vacation rentals so far. Thanks again for helping us make more lasting memories.

Upon arrival, we were met by the property manager for a tour of the home and a guided instruction for use of the elevator. Everything was beautiful and bedrooms were perfect for everyone in the family. Beach access was easily walkable. I loved that you are able to leave items behind for future guests! There were boogie boards and a wagon that were used during our stay. We brought a small charcoal grill and left that behind with a small bag of match light charcoal. Love the “pay it forward” concept! Also there were a few kitchen items we didn’t use because we brought our own, but were very thoughtful. Furnishings were beautiful! As a matter of fact, I ordered the same chandelier for my dining room bc I loved it so much! LOVED the elevator! It totally saved me as I recently had a nasty fall at a historical apartment during spring break. The one and only negative thing I could say (and honestly it’s JUST me), is that I would have loved to turn the A/C down below 72 at night as I sleep very hot. Everyone had a great time and that speaks volumes for our large family! Thank you for sharing your beautiful rental with us!

Great place for our Thanksgiving get away. We needed a place that had an elevator and had plenty of room for our needs. This house meet all our needs and the location near the end of the island was perfect for our needs. The owner and property manager were easy to work with and I will consider renting this place again.
