Host is amazing. We went to see Whooping Cranes and they did not disappoint. Location is close for viewing and boat tour. The house is well equipped - we didn't need anything. It's clean and very cozy!

My wife & I look forward to our next stay here!
A wonderful, quiet, clean, and well furnished home in a perfect location! The neighborhood was very quiet. The bed was very comfortable! Love the layout of the home. My wife and I definitely plan to stay here again!
We have been vacationing in Rockport for 20 years and this is our 4th house. The others were lovely in their own way but the Zen house ticks all the boxes. It is in a great location. It is clean and comfortable. The decor is pretty and beachy but not too beachy. And the screened in porch is the best place to start and end each day while you are there.
This place is in one of the best neighbors, close to all the things you go to Rockport to do. It is comfortable, functional and nicely decorated. The screened patio is perfect for hanging out and listening to the birds. We are looking forward to staying again.

This home was infested with bugs everywhere. It was all over the house and over the beds. The actually house was decent.

Response from VrboOwner on 28 September 2024
Hello, Harshini. Thank you for your thoughtful review. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your stay. Please rest assured that our homes are treated quarterly for pests. However, since you booked the weekend, we were unable to have the pest control company visit the property. Additionally, our local staff has confirmed that the locks are functioning properly. Thank you for your understanding. We hope to host you for an even better stay in the future!

Family vacation
Inside of the house looks good remodeled but not very clean at all dead roaches all over the place and the floor was not mopped but we made the best of it I guess
The house was ok kind of hidden with all the trees but the patio was nice and the trees kept it cool
Neighborhood was quiet and close to the beach
The house is exactly as photographed and the beds are comfy. Love that enclosed porch! Hot water takes a minute to come on, but we're used to that. Tap tastes just fine. Lots of restaurants are very close by and HEB too. Quiet neighborhood. If ever we return to this part of the Gulf we'd be very happy to stay here again!
Comfortable, there are bugs which is common for coastal region. Didnt bother us but may bother others.

Thank you for your feedback, Jillian. We appreciate your understanding regarding the presence of bugs, which can be common in coastal areas. If you have any specific concerns or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to share. Your input helps us enhance the experience for future guests.
Great, convenient location to our family. Only issue was unlocking the front door with the door code. It always took several tries to unlock the door as the key knob would just turn and turn. Also, on the last night of our stay, the door code had been changed and we had to call to get the new code. However, a great attribute was your communication regarding the water boil order for Rockport. This communication really impressed me. Thank you!
