We really enjoyed the property. The location was very convenient - close to Rockport beach, restaurants and various other attractions. The house was cheery and clean with a well organized kitchen and lots of beach stuff, including umbrella, chairs, towels, toys and boogie boards. Great property for kids!! We would certainly stay at Sunshine Cottage again and recommend it to our friends. that visit the area.

I stayed with my husband and two small kiddos. It had everything we may want to make it a comfortable stay. They even had two white noise machines for the kiddos and a booster for the chair. The host was very responsive to all my questions and I would definitely recommend this place to a friend.

This is the closest location to the beach we have stayed yet. The house was nicely decorated, and had plenty of room, considering my parents stayed as well. Our boys enjoyed the backyard activities, including washers, football, & the obstacle rope. The entire family had a blast. 10/10 would stay again!

Everything was great Cottage located in an area close to everything Plenty of space inside and beautiful outdoor Because it was a girls getaway our only complaint was no curtains on back door since property not fenced off felt someone could walk on property and we could be seen while sitting at dining table and walking around at night but other than that I would recommend the Cottage to others

We could not have been more pleased with the condition, floor plan, amenities and location of this wonderfully kept home! We enjoyed exploring all that Aransas County had to offer. We could not have had better hosts than Roger and Rene. They were great at communicating with us and the home had everything we might need for our 17 day stay!

This home was perfect for our family trip to Rockport! The location is fantastic — it’s a very short drive to the beach, HEB, etc. We really appreciated that the house had kids’ gear, including children’s silverware, beach toys, a small bathroom step stool, and a swing in the back yard. (Our toddler was too young for the jungle gym line in the back yard, but I’m sure bigger kids would love that!) The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed to our cook meals, and the layout worked really well for us. We will definitely return if we have the chance!

5.0 / 5.0
What a great rental property! Our family had an amazing vacation using this house as our base of operations. The reviews on this property were great, but I will add to the chorus.
The house - great layout for relaxing and spending time together. The kitchen/dining/ living room area was very spacious and well appointing with plenty of seating. Our family spent a lot of time around the large dining table doing a puzzle each evening. Beds and linens were very comfortable. The extras are everywhere. Toys for the beach, beach towels, beach chairs, they really thought of everything.
The location - amazing! You can walk to the beach but we had a 2 year old so we drove. The best beach that is close by charges for daily entry. We paid $40 for a year long pass (cheaper than doing daily entry for as long as we were there). The beach is super clean and very family friendly. Plenty of parking and lots of playground equipment. Rockport isn’t that big, so the house is close to everything else the town has to offer.
Property Management - I’m not sure how they could have done a better job. We received timely info leading up to, and during our stay. Seems like they have thought of everything. We never had to reach out for an issue because the house was spotless. I have no doubt that has we needed something they would have taken care of us.
We will be back for sure, a good chunk of our drive heading home was discussing when we would return. Thank you for helping us have a very memorable family vacation!

We had such a great time at the house!! Clean... Spacious and everything you could possibly need was there! Beds were so comfortable we didn't want to get out of them in the mornings! Close to the beach... Business district with lots of fun shops... And really good restaurants... We will definitely be back! Communication with owners was also great! They answered all our questions and then some.... You are making the right decision by renting here!!

Great house and property! House was nice, clean, and perfect for a weekend getaway with the family! Can’t beat the location. The owners are very responsive. The provided toys (boogie board, sand toys, fishing poles, etc.) were a nice touch. Hope to be back next summer!
2.5 / 5.0
We had a fantastic experience. You can’t beat the location and the house is beautiful. Owners put a lot of thought into it including beach items to borrow and lots of labels (I’m looking at you shower knob!). I even noticed a pack and play stored in a closet. Owner was extremely responsive throughout our stay. We go to Rockport every year and would 100% rent this home again.

Amazing family trip
I was looking for a place for family and friends beach trip and the Sunshine Cottage was perfect for us. Just ashort 2-3 min drive to the beach, food, and shops. Roger and Rene have everything at the house that made our stay very comfortable and relaxing. There was a cooler, beach chairs, wagon, and boogie board so we didn’t have to pack so much. I would definitely stay at Sunshine Cottage again!

Perfect family vacation home in lovely Rockport
The Sunshine Cottage was clean and well-stocked with towels, beach supplies, paper products, and a plethora of kitchen tools and small appliances. (My husband loved the big French press so much he bought one online the day we left.) We were impressed with the thoughtful touches like laundry and dishwasher detergent that was provided, and clocks with white noise machines in each bedroom. The layout was excellent for our two small families of four with the bedrooms split across the house (one w/bath one side, two w/bath on other side). We enjoyed all the beach toys and used the boogie boards and beach wagon many times. The home’s location couldn’t be any better: walking distance to the beach and three minutes from the grocery store. The host was communicative and even though I forgot to update our reservation from 4 to 8, was understanding and accommodating. We will absolutely stay at Sunshine Cottage again.

A Great Beach Vacation Home
The house is spacious and well prepared for guest to have an enjoyable stay. From children to adults, everyone will enjoy staying at the house. It is conveniently located to downtown and the Rockport Beach. The kitchen is well stocked with tools to help prepare meals. The WIFI is excellent and there is a tv in every room. We appreciated the convenience of having a washer and dryer to use. We have rented several homes in Rockport, and this is the best one we have stayed in.

Great Location and House
We had a wonderful stay at this property! The location is perfect, not far from everything! The house is beautiful on the inside and very well stocked. It has everything you could need for a stay with a very well stocked kitchen, all sorts of things for the beach, a portable crib, and games for all ages! The TVs are all equipped for streaming your own app and auto log out on check out. The property managers were very prompt with every question and checked after we checked in to make sure everything was going well. Though it was too cold to use, the back porch also had a great table and firepit. We had a wonderful stay!
