This penthouse was perfect! Mary was the best hostess, with awesome communication and great advice on food and things to do around town. So clean and lovely! We enjoyed the whole place, and especially loved the ocean view, and super comfy king bed in the master suite!

Our stay here was nothing short of extraordinary. Beautiful views in this well appointed, spotlessly clean apartment. The beds were very comfortable, the linens and towels were high end. The air conditioning was effective. The host was attentive and responsive. Every detail was well thought out. We can’t wait to return.

We were very comfortable in this beautifully designed, impeccably clean property. What a pleasure it was to enjoy a morning cup of coffee on the covered deck overlooking the pretty beach and harbor.

Exceptional property!!Beautifully decorated, incredible ocean view!! So close to the ocean you can hear the surf with the sliding door open. Everything was very clean, lovely walk in tiled showers, all the essentials and so much more have been thoughtfully provided too! And the location in Rockport is ideal. Five star host and property for sure!!

We stayed here as a family of four, 2 adults, 2 teenagers for a few nights. The entire home is magical and beautiful. VERY CLEAN!! Has everything you can need: great kitchenware, soft towels, beach chairs, etc...The view from the moment you walk in is just amazing. Mary's flawless taste in decor is lovely and fresh. She is a great host, kind, easy to communicate with and helpful. The beds were very soft and comfortable. The location is so awesome, able to walk to everything, but very quiet and private to retire at the end of the day. The beach was fantastic, right outside of your door and so gorgeous to sit out on the balcony and watch the beauty of the cove. We were so sad to leave. Wonderful vacation home, highly recommend!!!

Rockport Perfection

Mary’s place was stunning with a perfect location! The renovation is exquisite, her responsiveness quick, with a view of the beach and ocean. We could not have imagined a better way to spend July 4th and we hope to be back.

Great location, great views

Friends and I just needed a place to stay so we didn’t drive all the way home. Turned out to be far more relaxing than the pictures even show. Host was extremely responsive.

Lovely penthouse apartment, views/sounds of the beach were incredibly soothing. We went during off season for a nice quiet time in a charming town. This was a lovely place to retreat to once a day of activities was done, with the option of a nice evening beach stroll if desired. The kitchen had all we needed to prepare some nice meals, and the location was within walking distance of many restaurants (though some were closed due to off season). The host was very accommodating and was able to offer many suggestions for meals out. Overall, a lovely trip to a lovely place!

What you see in the photos is exactly what you get...a very comfortable and clean apartment to settle into and enjoy and relax. The kitchen is well equipped, the livingroom is a great spot to hang out, and the bed is very comfortable. There is so much to do in the area but the apartment was so comfortable that we really didn't want to go out. We stayed in mid-November and although the temperatures were in the mid-30s, we enjoyed coffee in the morning and wine in the eveing on the deck.Check in was easy and Mary was very quick to respond to a couple of questions.

Fantastic!

This was our second time staying at this property, but our first time under new ownership. The place is just wonderful! Very cozy and well equipped, and the location could not be more perfect. Mornings and evenings on the deck are so relaxing, and the beach is literally just a few steps away! Mary was very helpful and responded to our only question immediately. This is a one in a million location and we look forward to staying here for many years to come!

The location was perfect! it is in town and on the beach, with a small sitting area overlooking the beach. When doors are closed, it is quiet inside.There is a foldout sofa bed, which helped us as the loft was for younger people and has a ladder to get up there. Property manager was very pleasant to deal with and very responsive.There is one parking spot, which was great as there is only street parking in the downtown area, which gets crowded.Very clean and nice property.Lynn

The location was great. It's in the midst of a walking town. The beach was not crowded and we had fun collecting sea glass. The penthouse was very nice, clean and was comfortable. Our host was very helpful answering questions when we had them. We spent lots of time on the balcony beach peeping and catching rays. It is a beautiful place. The second bedroom was as described, very low ceiling, not good for anyone over 5' 4". The kitchen was well equipped and all appliances are top of the line. A great get away spot.
