Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Aransas Bay

When the place next door to your vacation home of 45+ years becomes a short term rental property, you would think our first reaction would be “oh no, there goes the neighborhood.” But much to Erin and Jennifer’s credit, we have not experienced one single problem. It’s all been positive. In fact, we just rented their place to host overflow lodging for our family. Not only was the place just the right size, but to have family be able to stay right next door at a very reasonable price doesn’t get any more convenient than that! Thanks E&J. Until next time!

This place was amazing. Very clean and bright. The location was great. Would definitely book here again.

We had a really nice time at Melody’s house! It was super clean, and she even dropped off a hair dryer in the rain bc the bath was missing one! Excellent response time, and very caring host! Thank you!!!

This is a great place to stay!! My husband and I de use to getaway from the city at the very last minute during the weekend and we lived the whole experience of feeling right at home while at the beach!! Thank you Chris!

We booked for a long weekend with two pets. There was plenty of space for our family and we all enjoyed the pool. Keith was responsive and checked in on us. Check in and check out were a breeze with no long list of chores to complete at checkout. Perfect spot, convenient stores close for forgotten items. Beautiful yard and pool. Highly recommend!

Came for a weekend of fishing. Matt & Melanie's place was perfect. Our dog, Leo, loved it as much as we did. Felt right at home as soon as we walked in. Our boat fit perfectly in the driveway. Very quiet location. Will definitely stay here again. Thank you, M & M for having such a nice place & offering it up to others!

We travel frequently with our pups, so finding a place that can accommodate them can be difficult at times. Well, this place does, and it was amazing! We would definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks again!!

We arrived it was a secluded area did pass it for a second but we found it. I did have to message to get the code to be able to check in for the day. He was very responsive, communicative, and always got back to me. The only problem we had is the bedroom, felt very warmer than the rest of the house other than that it was stocked with pots and pans, silverware plates, and had a full refrigerator for you to bring your food to stock.

Had a great time. Place was clean and close to the ocean. Place was quiet, bed was comfortable, and the AC worked great. The water pressure was also great. Would visit again.

We had a peaceful stay in this tiny home. friendly neighbors and kids loved pool and hall… perfect for our fishing trip! God willing we will be back next year 🎣❤️🏠

She responded at a moment notice no 24 hour wait. Was a true save to our trip clean and the pool was the best feature. Well book again in the future for a short term stay

Great space for a family of 6 adults and 2 kids. Family with kids downstairs allowed privacy and upstairs we enjoyed the extra balcony! Beautiful space right on the water, comfy couches, and overall clean when we walked in. The host was very quick to respond and accommodating when I had questions or concerns. There is no fishing net, so bring your own! We missed a pretty big flounder for not being prepared, but still caught some drum and little reds. Loved being able to fish right off the dock. Only suggestions I have is to add some extra chairs at the dining table because some are missing and the door lock makes a loud noise if you leave it open for too long. Locks on the bedroom doors would allow for more privacy. One cabinet in the kitchen doesn’t close all the way but not a big deal! I would stay again!

I’m big on reviews, so I hope you read this one. This Airbnb is by far the most amazing which began with hosts, Rene and Ted. Rene is responsive and offered some great suggestions for restaurants and things to do; she is knowledgeable of Rockport which is a unique town with a beach nearby. We were lucky enough to meet her and Ted over coffee and donuts. You will be within 30 mins of Corpus Christi, Port A, and Padre Island. The casita is truly large and has a super comfy king bed with memory foam mattress. It has awesome personal beach decor and all amenities you need to include coffee, dishes, utensils, laundry supplies, and more. The living room is made to unwind with a great tv. My favorite spot is the pool! It is larger than photos show and more beautiful. The hot tub was also amazing but Texas heat kept me out. The lounge area, garden, and Molly the dog made a most enjoyable environment even better. I cannot stress how this place made our vacation perfect! We will be back soon!

The home was very nice. We enjoyed our stay and will go back if the opportunity arises.

Jasmine’s Retreat was a great getaway for my family. As someone who likes the idea of the beach more than actually being at the beach, the pool was a lifesaver. The house and property were exactly as described and we had everything we needed for our long weekend.

Space was as advertised and a solid place to stay close to Port A. Really enjoyed the fact it was pet friendly and easy access to the beach.

Cozy place within walking distance to downtown Rockport and Rockport beach or a very short drive. We also went to Port Aransas which took about 45 minutes (including the ferry ride). This has a loft with an extra bed above the main bed but would be very tight. It was perfect for 2, a nice place to clean up and crash after a day exploring or at the beach. Debra was a very friendly host!

Our stay was perfect. The cabin was lovely, spotless and comfortable and had everything we needed. The surroundings were peaceful and I felt very safe. There was a gate leading up to the house that we locked at night. Tyler was very responsive to my messages and we would definitely stay here again!

The space was spotlessly clean—every corner felt fresh and well cared for, which instantly made me feel comfortable and relaxed. It had that rare quality of being both cozy and stylish, with thoughtful touches throughout that made it feel like a true home away from home. The host clearly put care into the details—everything from the soft linens to the fully stocked kitchen made my stay effortless. It was easy to settle in and unwind. I especially appreciated how quiet and peaceful the area was, yet still close to everything I needed. If you're looking for a stay that’s clean, welcoming, and genuinely comfortable, I highly recommend this Airbnb. I’ll absolutely be back!

This was the cutest little cottage. Perfect for our trip. The Coffee bar was so adorable and convenient. Pillows and beds were comfortable.

It’s a very great place to stay! The pictures don’t do it justice. Daniel was a great host. The place was perfectly clean. Will definitely stay again!

The Kozy Patch was very beautiful and peaceful. The host Christene was very communicative and kind. When we arrived it was very clean and very "kozy" my family absolutely loved it and would highly recommend.

This Cabin was excellent and smelled very clean the second you walk through the front door, Very quiet and Cold AC , Good blowing ceiling fans. Clear, Sharp color, Very Large LG TV, Kitchen has everything you need, Comfortable soft bed, Water pressure in the shower was pretty low, unfortunately. Large Washer and dryer next door. Overall, it definitely deserves a 5 star review! Thank you Clayton for being very attentive during my week stay in Rockport!

The condo was great. Location was easy to get to grocery, beach, restaurants…etc. Even though its a community, it was still quiet and peaceful. The condo itself was well taken care of and very clean. Kelli herself was very responsive and easy to work with. She was very sweet and easy to talk with. Definitely would visit again!
