There are two private balconies: one facing the gulf and the other overlooking the bay. Enjoy hot coffee while watching the sunrise for a great beginning; and later, dine al fresco during the gorgeous sunset to wind down. Only steps away from kayaking, wade fishing, and crabbing, along with bike or golf cart trails, bird watching and a 7 minute walk to the beach. It's a nature lover's paradise. For even quicker beach access take a one minute drive to the Pointe West Beach Club with free parking near a dune walkover with a ramp for wagons and wheelchairs.

Pointe West Beach Club is one of Galveston Island's favorite retreats. The 1000 acre property is located on the west end of the island. The Beach club is home to an infinity pool, large hot tub, kiddie pool, fitness center, game room, locker room with showers, gas and charcoal grills, cabanas and bicycles for rent, and more. A gift shop, restaurant and bar offering pool side service are available March through October. It's only steps away from over a mile of a groomed, private beach closed to vehicles. Pointe West also has miles of paved golf cart trails which are also fun for running, strolling, or cycling. There are tunnels connecting the bay side to the beach side on the trail. The club also hosts live entertainment during the summer on most Saturday evenings.

Access to the beach is included, however use of pools, game room, fitness center, pickle ball, and basketball court require a wristband. The Property Owner's Association collects a wristband fee of $25.00 per person and is good for the duration of your stay. They must be purchased in advance. Ages 4 and under do not require a wristband. They can be picked up at the beach club during business hours (9-5 off season and 9-6 daily Memorial Day through Labor Day). Temporary wristbands to access gift shop and restaurant are available if needed. Parking is free however Parking passes are required by Pointe West.

The bay side of Pointe West is home to a fabulous sunset pool and small lazy river with hot tub. There are charcoal grills along with a fire pit to make s'mores. Golf carts, kayaks, paddle boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, and canopies are available to rent from local venders. The condo also has beach chairs for your use.

The Strand, Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn, Pleasure Pier, and other Galveston attractions are just over 30 minutes away. There is a small grocery store about 12 minutes away, however it is a good idea to pick up groceries on the way.

Excellent owner
This VRBO owner is very responsive and she thought of everything. There’s coffee with all the fixings, the kitchen is fully stocked, the condo is beautiful and comfortable. My only issue was that the Point West photos make the pools and lazy River appear much larger than they actually are. Not a big deal. We still had fun. But the main pool was really overcrowded. Overall our stay was fabulous!

Home away from home
A second wind offers beautiful views within a cozy, comfortable setting that makes you feel like home. The views will take you to another place entirely; offering an escape from the everyday routine. You will enjoy sitting outside watching the sunsets only to have the gorgeous beachfront nearby. While relaxing inside you will have all the necessities to help get dinner on the table with your family, to having multiple seating options for movie night. A second wind will feel like your second home.

Great family getaway
We had a fantastic stay here with our family of 8. We have stayed in a lot of holiday rentals and this is one of the best--it truly has everything we needed. We really appreciated that there were beach chairs and toys plus a wagon for us to use. Plus plenty of dish washer and washing machine tabs, paper towels, plastic wrap for food and trash bags (some places can be really stingy with these items or don't provide them at all). Priscilla is wonderful--she responded immediately to any of my messages. I initially could not find the trash bags and Priscilla actually had a new package delivered the next day just to make sure we had enough. The beds were very comfortable and provided enough space for 2 couples, 3 kids and a grandparent. The views are outstanding from all sides. The kids loved fishing in the pond and going to the club house pool. We usually go to Port A every summer but the family loved our weekend so much that it looks like we'll be back in Galveston next summer! I don't have any negatives about the property. I would recommend that visitors make sure they have all the groceries they need as it's a pretty long drive to any stores (but this also means that the beaches in the area are less crowded). Thank you for a wonderful weekend!

Gorgeous Property & Great Condo
Our family spent the week at Pointe West and had a great time. Condo was very clean, up to date with everything you would need and more. Pointe west had great pools, fantastic beach (for Galveston) and gorgeous views on the bay side. While we where there the restaurant and bar where closed which kinda sucked because the places that delivered food where a long way away and food was cold by the time it was delivered. Plus they know they are offering a big service so it’s expensive to order out. We cooked most nights but that’s not exactly how we wanted to spend the vacation. With the restaurant being closed you had to bring your own drinks to the pool but even though the main pool wasn’t open you couldn’t bring in beer, or a mixed drink which we thought was strange. By doing this it seemed to push the majority of the people to the smaller Sunset Pool. The condo is great and point west is an amazing family spot right here in Texas. Don’t miss out *one thing was the elevator smelled terrible the entire week.

Summer fun in Galveston
Our family of six adults and two grandchildren had a wonderful stay in the condo. The home was nicely furnished and had a great view of the bay. We played in the lazy river, the big pool, the beach and did a little fishing with the kids off the dock. Thankful to have the time together without traveling a long way. It was our second time at Pointe West and we'll be back!

This Condo was exceptional. It worked out so well for my family of 7 ranging in age from 23 to 81. It was very well stocked and was very clean. We only had one incident with the elevator that actually broke on the first night. They were able to get it fixed by the next morning. Overall I would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous VRBO!
We absolutely loved our stay at Pointe West! Before getting to the condo, the community has all types of amenities for all ages. We made a point to visit both pools (the lazy river is very small - primarily geared towards those with younger children) and the large pool at the ClubHouse is very nice. The private beach/access is great! The beach was clean, not crowded and provided hours of enjoyment. Definitely rent a golf cart ahead of time - well worth the money and it helps immensely in getting around the resort. Kids had a blast with that, too. The condo? Amazing! First impression is it was absolutely spotless! So clean. It's spacious and provided plenty of room for our family of 6 (kids are ages 19, 16, 14 and 12). It's beautifully decorated and Priscilla goes above and beyond to make this your home away from home. The large balcony has lovely views of the bay side of the island. We really, really enjoyed that balcony! The kitchen is fully stocked with lots of essentials. The beds are comfy and she even has some beach chairs/toys, etc. for use. Priscilla even went above and beyond and left a small gift for our son who had his birthday over the weekend - he was so excited! Just so thoughtful. Finally, we reached out to several VRBO owners at the resort when we were trying to decide which condo. We received one word answers to questions by all BUT Priscilla. You could tell she took her time and really prides herself on making your stay enjoyable from start to finish. Our family all loved the condo and we would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend!

We loved this condo. It was the perfect size for my sister, me, and our 5 kids. Extras like beach chairs and sand toys helped us have a great time on the beach. The kids loved the two pools too. It is far from stores (30 min) so be sure to bring everything you need and it will be the perfect vacation!

This is our second year renting a condo at Pointe West and it was perfect! The back patio had an amazing view of Galveston Bay and you could also see the beach side.

Family Vacation SUCESS!
We were a little nervous about our first family vacation in Galveston and looked at so many places. So HAPPY you choose to stay at this property. #1- LOVED THE COMMUNITY! Yes it's about 30 minutes from downtown Galveston and the seawall but that was not an issue for us. On the days we wanted to go to town we went to town and did everything we wanted and came back. The community has AMAZING utilities including pools, restaurant and fitness room. We even splurged and rented a gold cart to drive around. #2- The Unit was super spacious. Loved the layout, the kiddos loved the bunk room. There was plenty of space for everyone and the unit was super clean and beautifully decorated. It had everything that we needed including plenty of towels, soap, kitchen utensils etc. #3- Beach Access was fantastic. Unit even had some beach chairs, my kiddo loved the toddler dino chair! The beach access is SO MUCH BETTER than going to the beach off the seawall. Totally worth the quiet. Overall PERFECT vacation. Can't wait to come back next year!
