Dune Drift

Craving a coastal escape that suits the whole family? You'll love this home. It's part of a resort on the Texas coast, so there's plenty to see and do nearby. Private dune crossovers lead to the beach, or you can swap the saltwater for a dip in one of the three shared swimming pools. There's also a communal fitness centre, on-site restaurants, fishing pavilions, and other exciting activities. Back home, the large living spaces invite you to chill out and relax together. A downstairs den is the perfect hangout for kids, too. With bunk beds, en-suite bathrooms, and plenty of room to stretch out, we think it's the ideal family-friendly find.
