Normally, I would have just left a 5 star review, but as we were the first renters to use VRBO, I figured I'd go into a bit more detail.
Well... I was half way through a detailed review and ran out of characters, so I'll abbreviate.
The condo is in an old building, so there are the typical idiosyncrasies that come with that, primarily antiquated plumbing and lack of insulation, you'll make use of the windows and ocean breeze, the air conditioner, and the numerous fans, and find that courtesy flushes are needed.
The primary "con" is that, although it was neat and "cleanish" it probably could have used a deeper cleaning, dusting of blinds and window sills and under furniture, i.e.
The condo was recently renovated, and has a nice new kitchen, but the shower enclosure is a vestige of an earlier time, and a bit tired.
The pros...
I sincerely don't think there is a rental in all of Rockport with a better location. A couple dozen steps from the entry door brings you to Front Beach, or to the center of Rockport village. A series of windows, including two large picture windows overlook the ocean, and at night, you can hear the waves washing up on the beach directly below you. There are plenty of board and beach games provided, and I think inflatable paddle boards.
The living area is so cute, and delightfully appointed with works from local artists. There is also a washer and dryer on site.
If you plan to vacation in Rockport, and this place is available, reserve it.
