About this property

There are many things that make our condo in Rockport, Texas special. Best, it is a place for peace and quiet. We enjoy sharing the condo with guests - and are fortunate to have many return - who relax and appreciate a calm getaway. This peaceful place was featured in a 2015 episode of HGTV's Beachfront Bargain Hunt (Redemption in Rockport, Texas, season 8, episode 9). It is a well-decorated, 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo up a flight of stairs (no elevator) on the second floor with a 40-foot balcony overlooking Aransas Bay. There is a swimming pool, and finding a fishing spot is as easy as walking across the street. The condo is fully stocked with just about everything you'd need for a comfortable stay. Thanks for taking an interest in the condo and showing respect to our neighbors by keeping it a quiet and relaxing spot during your stay. Sorry, we do not host loud gatherings.

The view of Aransas Bay is beautiful. It faces East, so the deck is pleasant morning and afternoon. The deck chairs are very comfortable.

Great stay!

My family and I stayed here for a short Labor Day weekend getaway. The stay is as advertised on here and the views were great! It was perfect for my spouse, two kids (10 and 14), and my mother in law! Only small recommendation to the owner is to change out the mattress in the couch. It’s old and not the most comfortable but we made it work! Overall, it was a great stay and Tim was very nice and quickly responsive! Would love to stay here again next year!

Beautiful Vacay Stay

This was one of the most relaxing vacations ever! My family loved being so close to the pier and being able to just walk across street and within minutes be casting! The condo was just BEAUTIFUL and offered an amazing view! There was plenty of room for the 5 of us. Place was extremely clean and nicely decorated. Loved all the fine details! Reasonably priced was an added bonus! Located so close to everything we needed! Will definitely recommend and will also be back! Thank you Price Family!

Great Location

We did a girls trip and stayed for two nights. While it’s not super modern it is well appointed and the beds are comfortable. Each room has a bathroom connected which was nice. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook and clean up. The sunrise and sunset view from the balcony is gorgeous and we spotted Dolphins everyday! Overall wonderful stay!

Wonderful week at the beach

This was such an amazing property to stay at! The views of the bay from the balcony were stunning. Super clean, everything you need for a relaxing get away. The pool was perfect for our kiddos. The Rockport-Fulton beach area is so family friendly and fun. Rockport Beach is just a short drive from the condo. Lots of yummy restaurants nearby. Tim was very communicative and made sure we had everything we needed. Don’t miss out on booking this perfect condo for a coastal get away.

Home away from Home

The unit was fitted with everything you would have in your home , and then some. Owner kept in constant contact, informing us of a few minor things that he felt were an inconvenience. I appreciated his honesty and sincerity. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends and family.

Quiet and relaxing

We stayed here for 3 lovely days in October. We were surprised at how quiet it was in this area, we thought there might be more hustle and bustle, but there wasn't at all. Location was great, with a very nice view of the water. The host, Tim is super responsive to questions, which is very much appreciated. It is really nice to have 2 separate bathrooms, which you don't always see in condos like this. Kitchen was pretty well stocked, though the Keurig machine was a little fussy. (try turning it off and back on again!) I would suggest having some kind of a notebook for renters to refer to, partially so we don't have to bug the hosts with questions about things! Also, this is not under the control of the hosts, but coming down the stairs in the dark is a little scary! There is a motion activated light near the bottom, but that doesn't come on until you are almost at the bottom! There may have been another light out, I don't know, but I would recommend being ready to use a flashlight if you are going to come and go at night. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay, we did not fish, but we enjoyed all the birds right out across the street at the pier, and a short drive to several other fantastic birding locations. I would stay here again.

Couldn't Have Asked For Anything Better

I grew up in Rockport but hadn't been back in a very long time. I found this condo and it included everything I could want. The views from every room were outstanding! The beds were comfortable with linens you just wanted to snuggle in. I look forward to going back and staying here again.

About the host

Hosted by Tim

We love traveling and seeing the world. For our weekend getaways when we're not taking off on the big jet plane, we head to the Texas Gulf Coast. We have a wonderful condo right along the water that we love to share!

Why they chose this property

We feel lucky to have found this condo. It gave us a thrill when we were invited to tell the story of how we fell in love with it on an episode of HGTV's Beachfront Bargain Hunt. Now that the cameras are gone, the thrill remains! It's our place to entertain friends and spend time with our grandchildren.

What makes this property unique

When we leave our job in the big city, we try to leave the office in plenty of time to get on that 40-foot balcony for an evening of cool breezes and sharp refreshments. Throw in some fresh seafood from Alby's - they serve it from right off the boat - and our condo is tough to beat. Wake up the next morning to a quick cup of fresh coffee and one of the most brilliant sunrises you'll ever see!
