Casual, comfortable, and delightfully colorful, this Rockport home enjoys a beautiful view of Aransas Bay and the fishing piers along the shoreline. Spend your days boating, fishing, and lounging on the beach nearby and your evenings basking in the balmy weather on the front porch and back deck.
This single-story bungalow sits just across the road from the bay shore, less than a mile south of downtown Rockport's restaurants, bars, shops, and heritage district. Lounge in the sand at Rockport Beach, less than two miles north, or use the public dock about a mile away. The Texas Maritime Museum, the Rockport Center for the Arts, and the Fulton Mansion State Historic Site are also within four miles.
Begin each morning outside on the porch, sipping your first cup of coffee and taking in the views and salty breezes off Aransas Bay. Retreat to the deck and fenced yard after a day of exploration and adventure to sear your fresh catch on the gas grill.
This centrally air-conditioned home is painted in pastel colors, creating a cheerful, inviting atmosphere. Enjoy an open living and dining area with a smart TV, a darling kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a built-in breakfast nook overlooking the bay.

Wonderful stay! We can’t wait to come back!
Such a clean and quaint cottage. We definitely enjoyed the comfort and beach vibe of Bay Breeze. It was furnished with everything we need and we’re also thankful for the fenced yard for our pup to enjoy while we were relaxing on the back deck. Coffee on the front porch over looking the bay for sunrise was fabulous! Thank you for hosting us

Adorable Cottage on the Bay
This is our second time to stay! You can’t beat the location and the home is adorable. My only complaint is the check in/out times are 4pm and 10am! When I requested an earlier check in , the rental service didn’t respond to me until 24 hours later and obviously we were already checked in! Besides that though, we had a wonderful trip for my 65th birthday!!
The inside of the home was quaint and very clean. The front yard was not managed very well. Grass was not cut, weeds were growing and patches of missing grass everywhere. Other homes next door and across the street had yards that were more presentable. The outside of the house could use some TLC.
Waterfront property with an unobstructed view of the Bay. My Dad has some mobility issues but he was able to make it up and down the front stoop and out the back deck. We cooked half our meals at the house and fished everyday. The house is close to Aransas Pass, on the edge of South Rockport, and easily accessible to and from. I would tell you it’s better, but I want it to be available again next time.
Clean house, location is perfect for fishing and beach. Host reached back out in good timing for a question i had. Coffee and beach view every morning and relaxing with beach view at night.
We very much enjoyed our stay. Loved that it is very clean and they were very prompt when i couldn't figure out the porch light in the back.There is one thing that i would like added on is to install safety bars in the bath tub. We will gladly stay there again.
Property was in excellent condition and clean. We loved the location, across the street from the bay and close to all amenities. Our schnauzer loved the fenced back yard and back porch. We had all the things we needed to cook at home and everything worked! We were impressed of the property and will probably go back. The town’s people were very welcoming and friendly. Beautiful Full Moon the night we left.
Coffee maker dirty it ruined our first cup of coffee. Toilet constantly running had to turn off the water. Sugar ants ruined our drinks, and our breakfast this morning they are in the kitchen and on top of the dining table.

Great place to stay
The house was on a corner lot. Neighborhood was very quiet so we could go for a late night walk or simply relax on the porch. House was a nice 2/2 and fulfilled all our needs. Piers were a short walk for fishing and the beach was a short drive. Lots of restaurants were 5-10 min away as well. I will definitely consider this place next time I’m in Rockport.
The property has an excellent view. The inside would surely benefit with some updating. The 2 fold out couches are not quite twin bed size and are not appropriate for adults. There is zero accessibility. We traveled with a wheelchair bound individual and had to physically carry her and the wheelchair inside. When we first arrived the stove and tv did not work however the property manager came and left hot pad and toaster oven she was also kind enough to leave a portable ramp to use for our daughter In Wheelchair. She later sold us the ramp. So overall if you are only 2 people without disabilities the cottage is sufficient but it is no where near a property for people with disabilities. This was a huge problem for senior citizens to go thru with all the lifting. It is a corner lot in excellent location however there is much traffic and you can easily hear all the car and people noises as they go by. Most rentals have a few more basic supplies which this did no. There were no proper cleaning Essentials no mop no vacuum etc.

Complete nightmare
Arrived to a very high yard. Called Vacasa , local manager reached out to me and that’s all she did reach out and take me for ride. House is very nice and cozy my second time there, my first time was absolutely flawless! Mosquitoes were in millions, now everyone knows cut yard and yard guard works good. I use at home super. Anyways we had to go cruising our hang out inside and a big waste of money. Being honest goes a long way with me. Using Vacasa again in September cause trip paid but after that looking for somebody else.
