Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Rockport

We have been fortunate to have almost universally positive Airbnb experiences, but this one was special. There are absolutely flashier homes out there, ones closer to the beach, or closer to an influencer’s ideal. But Bon Temps Rockport felt like home. From the exceptional hospitality shown by Natalie and family, to the thoughtful decoration, the convenient to Rockport and only 30 min from Corpus location, and even an easy checkout that was not the onerous list of requirements some properties are known for, this place is special and represents the best of what Airbnb can be. All to say I happily recommend Bon Temps Rockport to anyone looking to stay in the area. Our family can’t wait to return.

The house is beautiful, and in the perfect location. Tucked away and private, but central to everywhere we needed to go. Walking distance to our favorite coffee shop, as well as lots of restaurants. Large backyard that our kids and dogs enjoyed. Anything we forgot, was there available for use. I will definitely be staying here again.

Beautiful home with unique quarters for an amazing stay. The covered pool was great to swim and cool off in when it was the hottest point in the day. Plenty of space for family get togethers with a grill to have a nice cookout. Would definitely recommend booking this home for your next coastal vacation!

This is our 4th annual summer trip with our kids and grand kids and never disappoints! Hosts was prompt, and very helpful. Her cottage was very spacious, clean and comfy. Can’t wait to book again for next year. ❤️❤️

Host (Josh) was very quick to send out a pool guy to clean the pool when we got there. He sent his pool guy out within the hour after we notified him that the pool was “a little cloudy”. This was really the only issue we had while staying there. Everything is centrally located and the home itself is kept in “Pristine” condition! We would definitely recommend this rental home for a small family.

The house was beautiful and just as described! The pool was amazing and relaxing. We caught a couple undersized reds and black drum from the pier at night! 10 out of 10 would recommend this house for a relaxing vacation!

We had an excellent stay at Jay's property for a large family trip. Property was exactly as advertised and completely met or exceeded our expectations. All the provided accessories (beach chairs, toys, kitchen utensils, etc) were a fantastic bonus to the stay. Having the provided golf cart ready to go makes the entire process even more seamless not having to go to a separate rental location. We absolutely plan to stay again next year if possible!

We had a great stay! The place was clean, tidy, and just as described. It’s in a fantastic location—walking distance to the beach—which made it super convenient. We also really enjoyed the amenities, especially the pool and pickleball court. The entry to the area is inspected, which made it feel very secure and well-managed. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again!

This is a total gem! The location is right by the beach and the pool and playground are amazing. This is the second time we stayed. Janis is very helpful and responsive and we had no real issues. The place itself is a little small, but for 2 adults and a kid its perfect and we spent most of the time outside. Gorgeous deck. The couch is somewhat uncomfortable but again, not a deal breaker. Overall we love this place and will probably stay again if she will have us.

Honestly, had an amazing time celebrating my sister’s birthday!! The condo was in a perfect location walking distance to the local shops. The pier was amazing. Thank you so much for allowing us to check in a little bit earlier. Until next time Laguna Reef.!!

Great location close to everything we needed to get to. Very quiet and peaceful with parking in front of the unit. Friendly and safe community. Will rebook on our next trip in a couple of weeks.

Great place! We will definitely do it again

Really well situated along the canal and within the local area. Very clean and stocked with useful items.

Judy’s place was nice and comfortable. It was so nice sitting by the water and having some quiet/peaceful time. Would definitely stay again!!

Meagan was so helpful, courteous, and accommodating. Her condo was very clean and the amenities were incredible. Such a short walk to everything you need. A great stay for our anniversary.

Beautiful location and cozy place! We felt right at home.

I've stayed here 3 times already and it feels like our home away from home. We love this place, perfect for families. Well stocked. responsive host. We had an issue with the stove and he sent his nephew who was incredibly sweet and great at fixing the issue. We love this spot and look forward to staying again.

You can spot cat-themed decorations in every corner and every little place — it's full of fun and surprises! Everything from toys to furniture handles to Monopoly pieces might be cat-related. The space is arranged to be incredibly cozy and comfortable. As for the ducks — they’ll come running toward you with excitement, completely unafraid of people. Sometimes they can be a little too friendly, so be prepared! Many restaurants are located within a 10-minute drive, offering a wide variety of choices — some are even within walking distance.

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!

We love coming each year and enjoying your place! Always fantastic

Great place to stay, easy and close to everything else! Great spot!

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.

We spent a wonderful week in Jenny's place. It was perfect! Short drive to beach, water view off the balcony, the pool was super close, and many shops and restaurants just minutes away. We will stay here again!

Everything was as advertised. Nice place, great location close to everything including a very short walk to the beach, and check in was a breeze! Host was easy to work with and very attentive, responding quickly to any questions. We had no issues and no complaints. I will be looking for this spot again next summer!
