A Family's Touchstone & Tradition

Grounded in Coastal Traditions

Beyond the beautiful beach homes and world-class amenities, it's the traditions that keep owners and their friends and guests coming back year after year. From playing beach volleyball and collecting hermit crab to taking annual photos in PJs taken on the Great Lawn, the Wesson Family and their friends vacation together, making new traditions with every visit.

The Wessons of Midland, Texas, own a a home at Cinnamon Shore South, and since 2019, they've vacationed with other friends who stay at Cinnamon Shore the same week. First eight families came, then seven, and 12 families the past two years.  In 2024, they brought 31 kids between ages 3 and 10!

Beyond days spent on the beach and by the pools, they have several go-to traditions, like building pyramids on the beach for pictures and lining kids up oldest to youngest on the Great Lawn for an annual photo in their pjs!

"We love watching all the ages play together, and watching their growth from year to year has been really fun," says owner Reagan Wesson. "We come back every year because we love this trip. We love being together."

On the Beach & Around the Community

In Summer 2024, the Wessons and 11 other families put up a volleyball net around their cluster of beach umbrellas and played some competitive games. "This year, we've been doing 'all day, every day' at the beach," Reagan says. "I think I love the volleyball this year. That's been the biggest hit."


With so many children in tow, it's easy for these couples to choose Cinnamon Shore, where there's a variety of planned activities in peak season and plenty of room to roam and explore. The Wesson children and their friends list S'more Nights, getting ice cream, and talking on the beach with their friends as favorite moments. "They love hermit crabs! We've collected about 500,000 hermit crabs, I think, this week," says Reagan, laughing.

 Who knows what traditions they'll start next summer, when the kids are another year older. "I'm always real excited to come back...relax, look out at the beautiful beach, get sandy, and do all that fun stuff," says one of the boys in the large group of kids. We imagine their parents feel the exact same way.
