Perfection on every level! Great location and the house is designed and decorated beautifully. We went for spring break (two families of four) and everyone had plenty of space. Owners have literally thought of everything. Rhonda was a great host and very responsive with any questions we had. Would love to stay there again! Book it! You will not be disappointed.

We stayed at the Salty Dog last year and absolutely loved it. This year it was disappointing. Grill is a safety hazard. Only two burners work. The ladder down to the canal is covered in barnacles and slime. The sheets in the upstairs bedroom were stained, and the upstairs couch is stained and dirty. The ceiling in the master bathroom leaked on Easter Sunday. Owners returned our call immediately. Not much they could do to fix it before we checked out on Monday. For the rental price, things need to be updated and cared for.

I’m so sorry about these items. You’re absolutely correct that these items need to be addressed, but I wasn’t aware of anything besides the water leak. We will definitely take a deep look!

Can’t say enough good things about the home as well as the host. The home is beautiful with so many amenities. Key Allegro/Rockport is a wonderful place to visit. The house showcases all the area has to offer with its decor as well as a massive deck for fishing, a swimming pool, outside living area, kayaks and paddle boards! Every detail was considered when designing and decorating this house! The host communicated well and was available when needed. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay!

Staying at the Salty Dog was the ultimate vacation experience. So much so, our preteen and teenager when at the Port Aransas Beach and touring the Lexington in Corpus couldn't wait to get back to the house to enjoy the pool, kayaking, and paddleboarding. This house is an "all-inclusive" resort in itself! Plenty of room for all the family to be comfortable, a well-equipped kitchen, and indoor and outdoor games to keep everyone happy. Comfortable beds and outdoor lounging furniture for adults to relax and enjoy the Gulf breeze and sights up and down the canal added to the "older folks" enjoyment. We have rented several homes from VRBO from Florida to Montana, the Salty Dog is absolutely "Top Dog"!

About the host

Hosted by Rhonda Garcia

Host profile image
My husband and I are affectionally known as the "Chip & Jo" of our hometown! We own a construction company and love working on projects together (most of the time). I like to think we balance each other out pretty well since he's the math construction guy & I'm attempting to decorate a room before he's even finished. We have 3 daughters, and they keep us very busy with their activities, but we love to travel as a family and enjoy spending time together at our Rockport Home. We obviously also love dogs, and they tag along whenever they can, so we wanted to make the home as pet friendly as possible for your special friends too!

Why they chose this property

We started coming to Rockport a few years back to visit another family members home and always really enjoyed the vibe of the town. A couple years ago we began actively searching for a home and hit many dead ends. We just couldn't find one just right for our family & for rentals. Since we own a construction company, we just decided to go for it and build our own! This lot was a lot of fun to work with because in Key Allegro all the "fun" is in the back. Our canal footprint is quite large for a single lot and we took full advantage.

What makes this property unique

The Salty Dog offers all the fun in one location! Really comfortable living spaces for families to share inside as well all lots of room outside to spread out and have lots of fun! The home rental includes 2 stand up paddleboards & 2 kayaks as well as yard games to enjoy. The outside seating is really comfortable and relaxing, and each spot is so unique that I don't have a favorite one yet!
