Ground Floor Gem: Private Beach, Pier & Pool

Why just rent a house when you can make it a full retreat? Escape to the tranquil oasis of Pier Bliss Retreat, your beach house nestled within the exclusive Sailhouse community. Located near the sparkling shores of Aransas Bay, this charming retreat offers you a perfect blend of relaxation, fishing adventures, and poolside fun with its private beach, fishing pier, and spacious pool. 



Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or a fishing expedition, this is your sanctuary by the sea. As you stroll down the Sailhouse boardwalk you’ll notice the peaceful calm, vibrant local flowers, and the muted pastels of the quaint neighborhood. The short stroll then opens up and delivers you to the inviting Sailhouse PRIVATE beach. Sink your toes into the warm sand, take a dip in the calm waters, or simply relax under the shade of an umbrella while enjoying the gentle sea breeze.



THE STAY: After a day of sun-soaked adventures, bask in the comfort of your coastal haven. Unwind in the spacious updated living areas, thoughtfully designed with local art to provide a serene ambiance and modern amenities. The fully equipped kitchen invites you to channel your inner chef and create delightful feasts and artisanal coffee while the spacious bedrooms offer a restful retreat for rejuvenating nights. 



RELAX: Don't draw straws for the primary bedroom. This house has a primary with en suite as well as a guest room en suite. Both with king size beds and smart TVs for your streaming pleasure. The third bedroom is equipped with an office space and queen size bed. As a guest of Pier Bliss Retreat you'll have access to the following amazing features of the Sailhouse neighborhood. 



PRIVATE FISHING PIER: Cast your line into the Aransas Bay from the Sailhouse private fishing pier. Whether you're an experienced angler or a novice, you'll appreciate the convenience of having this exclusive access to the rich fishing grounds. Catch dinner or simply unwind as you watch the rise over the horizon with a cup of coffee from Rockport Coffee Co. 



SECLUDED BEACH: Imagine stepping out on the Sailhouse private beach. No crowds, no hassles, just pure relaxation. Spend your days basking in the sun, and building sandcastles with the kids. This pristine beach is your personal playground. 



SPARKLING POOL: When you're ready to cool off, the Sailhouse pool is a few steps away. Sparkling and inviting, it's the perfect spot for a refreshing swim or to simply lounge by the water with a good book. The pool area is well-maintained and offers plenty of seating for you to soak up the Texas sun.

      Beach house that Exceeds Expectations!

      This beautiful home exceeded all expectations with its attention to detail, clean and well maintained furnishings, and quaint location. The owners love their place and it’s felt with every detail. Coffee lovers…this place meets every need to get a caffeine fix with the multiple ways to brew your coffee. The beds are extremely comfortable and overall place is cozy and welcoming. The best VRBO I have ever stayed at and that’s saying a lot!

      Amazing!

      The house is stunning- bright, spacious, beautifully decorated and the best stocked house we've stayed in-anything you may need is already there! The front porch gives you a front row to the numerous hummingbirds visiting the feeders and the walkway to the beach is really reminiscent of a movie set. The private beach is wonderful but if you prefer the pool, they have that as well. The hosts were very gracious and answered every one of our questions very quickly. Would love to visit again!

      Wonderful

      We've booked many homes in Rockport and this is one of the best! The hosts have thought of everything to make you feel like you are home. Not only were there great snacks upon arrival but also an amazing selection of coffee! We drove in late and what a pleasure to arrive and not feel the need to immediately rush out to grocery store. The coastal decor and gorgeous Rockport art throughout made this home warm and inviting. The boardwalk to the pier was very enjoyable with just a short walk to the water offering a water view and lush gardens to look at along the way. Sailhouse is a charming community with proximity to everything Rockport has to offer and I would not hesitate to book here again and again!

      Most impressive home ever!

      An overall great experience for two 55+ couples. The house was extremely well equipped and stocked. Decorated tastefully! Lots of great restaurants nearby. Also located near a beach and nice shops. Communal pool was nice, but could have been a little cleaner. Relaxing and enjoyable!
