The Sunshine Bay House

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Perched in coveted Key Allegro, this impeccable remodel is a welcoming retreat. Filled with natural light, the interior is furnished in a bright and beachy style. Highlights of this stunning house include designer upgrades like a retro-inspired kitchen and beautiful tilework. Lounge on the breezy covered deck or entertain in the expansive backyard - complete with a grill. Dip in the shared pool or wade in the waves of nearby Rockport Beach.

Unwind in the chic living area, outfitted with a sofa, sleeper sofa, and 40-inch smart TV. A shiplap accent wall adds a touch of coastal flair. Channel your inner chef in the retro-inspired kitchen. Black and white tiling, stainless steel appliances, soft-close drawers, and new quartz countertops make this space a delight. When it’s time to eat, share meals at the stylish dining table for four or at the breakfast bar.

This home offers ample outdoor space to enjoy the breathtaking coastal surroundings. Catch peekaboo views of Aransas Bay from the covered front deck. A covered balcony is furnished with Adirondack chairs. Entertaining is a breeze with a barbeque gas grill and a sprawling fenced yard. After an exciting day of explorations, take a dip in the unheated shared pool - which is open year-round.

Complimentary WiFi, a DVD player, a Blu-ray player, a Nest thermostat, and a laundry room with a washer/dryer are available.

Charming and Cozy House on Key Allegro

A charming home that has absolutely everything you need to enjoy your stay. We loved the expansive front deck, as well as the back deck nestled in the trees. Key Allegro is a great location - the island feel and close to whatever Rockport has to offer. Highly recommend!

Relaxing weekend

The property was attractive, clean, and easy to locate and use as a base to run to the grocery store, eat out, take beach pictures, etc. Loved the pool. September was the perfect time to stay because the pool was mostly ours, the neighborhood went to work or to fish, and the shopping was very nice. Road trip to Port Aransas just to take ferry and visit art museum. Very cool. Will go back.

Great Location Worth the Price

Was very nice, clean, well decorated, would suggest leaving instructions as to where certain things are ans making the storage downstairs available. That said, we learned stairs are no longer a good idea for use at 55+ especially carrying 10 days of clothing and our treasures from shopping in town. That said. If our health was better like it was in our younger days the home would have been perfect. Great location, great price, well appointed and clean with very simple rules amd everything worked as described and Anyone considering a hotel should stay here first.
