My husband, 1 year old son and I stayed at Windswept for two weeks in September 2007. It was an absolutely fantastic vacation and home away from home. Kay has made everything about the home livable for her guests. To get to the beach you simply walk through the pool area and down the adjoining boardwalk - there you are! I would liken the distance to walking from a standard beach front hotel, through its pool area to the beach. The beach directly in front of the complex is enormous at low tide and still nice and wide at high tide. The tidal pools make perfect "kiddie pools". Although we are pet lovers and took our dog with us, there was NO SIGN that pets are allowed to stay at Windswept. It is kept immaculately clean and tidy. It is great for kids too with very family friendly furnishings and highly mounted electronics. We were thankful for the little office that we were forced to use to work a bit. The high speed connection and wireless router made communication very accessible. There are even two adult bikes along with a TON of beach toys and rafts at the house. NO need to bring your own! It is a perfect bike ride to Coligny for a meal or ice cream. From the granite kitchen to the beautiful bathrooms, everything has been considered and appointed with the highest of taste and quality.

Awesome Family Home

This property is nicely laid out and convenient for a large family that needs room for 8-9 people. There are two main bedrooms and three other smaller bedrooms mostly located on the second floor. The owner has many amenities that you can leverage (beach chairs, sun tent, etc.), and the house is a short walk through the community pool to the beach area. It is not a short walk but very doable while toting equipment to the beach. The house is in great shape and has the accessories that a family that stays at the house a lot in terms of cooking, etc. will need. The house is also located deep into a neighborhood that has very little traffic because of it's location.

WONDERFUL PLACE TO STAY!!

We have stayed at Windswept twice now and have had a wonderful stay both times. The house has a upscale yet comfortable feel to it. I personally like all the little extras that make it feel more like home like a weill stocked kitchen (spices, lots of kitchen gadgets that come in handy) as well as books, toys, and movies. It is a great house for families with kids! Beach towels and toys are on the property and the beach and pool are steps away! If you like to shop or want to eat out or have some icecream Coligny Plaza is right down the street.
The house is very clean and well maintained (I am very picky about this). When we ran into any problems Kay, the owner, was always more than helpful. We locked ourselves out of the house and she helped us right away and when the A/C wasn't working properly she had someone there to fix it immediately. My husband and I both agree that we can't stay anywhere else now. It feels like home!
