Wonderful small town on the coast

Perfect spot for vacation! If you love smaller towns, you'll love this area! Great art district, close to back with shadow water, and wishing shops. Awesome host! If you plan to do your own cooking, bring spices.

Lovely condo with spectacular view

Everything was wonderful—communication with host was easy, the condo is lovely, and the back patio/view is unmatched. This was one of our favorite VRBOs ever! We’re already talking about a return trip during whooping crane season.

GREAT BAYSIDE CONDO

What a perfect place to relax and get some fishing in. The condo was as advertised with a great location and private pier. I go to the coast every year to relax after a hard month of work. This condo was the perfect place! It is clean and modern with all that you need for relaxation. It's great for the a couple or a single looking to get away. I'll definitely be back. Thank you!

Perfect place for a couple!

This condo was the best we've ever booked. It was super clean and had everything we needed but was not cluttered. The location was perfect, the view from the balcony magnificent, and the pool very nice. The property was quiet during our stay and the staff were all very pleasant and accommodating. Could not have asked for anything more. We will definitely be back!

Not too good for grilling as the grills were so far away and it looked like none of them were gas grills.The view was great from our balcony.

Relaxation and fun in Rockport

Our stay at Hootie and The Redfish was very enjoyable. The condo was clean, nicely stocked with snacks and coffee, and a real pleasure to stay at. A big plus was the wonderful patio view into the bay and having a coffee in the morning watching the sunrise. The pool and hot tub were clean and not too busy. Shopping is a short five minute drive away with multiple shops and friendly people. A very peaceful and relaxing trip and we would definitely recommend.

Great Location Great Stay

This property is in a complex but still felt private. Everyone in the building, guests and staff, were amazing, kind, and friendly. My friend and I were able to walk e erywhere. Woke up to coffee on the balcony and spent a good deal of time on the pier. All amenities were great and the owner/management were very friendly and super responsive! Very likely to tell my friends and return for another weekend getaway.

Exceptional condo and views

We enjoyed our stay at Hootie and the Redfish so much! Views of the water were amazing. Finishes of the decor were high end. Would definitely return. The only cons: only 3 towels and 2 rags provided for 4 night stay, one was dirty although folded up. So, bring extra towels./rags. Also, the bedroom was a bit warm at 70. Would be nice if there was a separate window unit for the bedroom as the A/C doesn’t reach to bedroom well.

4 stars

Only 4 stars because the rules they have are not enforced. Nobody was wearing wristband, smoking on the patio below me and the gate to the fishing pier was broken so a lot of trespassing was happening. If they fix the gate and enforce their rules it would be a 5 star place. Staff was super friendly.
