Driving the beach is not the same as booking gulf-front
The short answer
The City publishes beach driving and parking rules. A listing photo of a truck on sand is not a permit. Village dune crossovers are a separate system.
An amenity appears here only if a public authority or the official village site names it. No rumor amenities, no hours, no fees.

Quick questions
Which amenities does a rental automatically include?
None automatically. City beach is public. Village pools and town-center rooms follow the official Cinnamon Shore booking path. Confirm in the stay email.
Are hours or fees listed here?
No. Hours and fees change. We publish which system a thing belongs to, and we refuse to guess the rest.
What can a visitor use with no village booking?
The public gulf beach and the TxDOT ferry, subject to City and TxDOT rules. Village amenities are a separate system.
