We loved the space and enjoyed the outdoor upgrades! You might want to check the fishing light because when you turn it on, it trips the breaker. Also please check the outlets in the master bathroom as they were not working.

Thank you, Anne! We love hosting your group and we’re so glad you came back again. We’re also happy to hear that you loved all the new amenities!
Thank you for the notes about the green lights. We’ve already had an electrician over to look at that as well as the other plugs.
We look forward to hosting you again.
Best,
Matt
This property was amazing, from the sunrise/sunset deck to the size if the property. There were 14 of us and lots of space throughout the house and outdoors. Each room had such a wonderful beachy feel to it. Great weekend!!
This property was amazing! It accommodated our entire family as we celebrated a milestone birthday at my brother-in-law! The property had everything we needed plus more! All of the kayaks, paddle boards and other water items were a bonus. We will definitely come again.
The property exceeded our expectations in both aesthetics and condition. It was impeccably maintained, offering a clean, comfortable, and inviting environment for our stay. The homeowners demonstrated exceptional hospitality throughout the entire experience. They were highly responsive to all inquiries, provided timely and helpful communication, and proactively checked in on multiple occasions to ensure that every aspect of the accommodation met our needs and preferences. Their attentiveness and professionalism contributed significantly to the overall quality of our visit. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the stay and would enthusiastically choose this property again for future trips.
We were there for the Humane Society Spring fundraiser as part of the decorating committee. The house was perfect as a work space and as a relaxing reward. Wonderful for coffee in the morning out on the deck and a glass of wine in the evening. Even though we were working, we were able to have fun as well!
High school coach who brought varsity team down for an overnight tournament. The space is awesome! Very clean and so many amenities for everyone! Great host and replied super fast!
The property was very clean, spacious,
and in a great location. We loved paddle boarding! The owner was extremely helpful when we needed something. Will be visiting again!!

Thank you Hailey! We are so glad you and your guests enjoyed your stay and would love to have you back anytime!
This house was wonderfully equipped for our entire family, young and old. Was very clean and very well kept! Check in and out was seamless! A blessing for our family weekend indeed!
Loved this property. Great access to the water and the owners provide paddle boards and kayaks for use on the canal.
Extremely clean and spacious. Owners were communicative and delivered a full bottom of propane so we could enjoy the grill.
Would definitely rent again.
We cannot say enough good things about our stay. The house was perfect in so many ways and the owners were a pleasure to work with. Don’t forget to take time for the rooftop deck! It’s an absolutely beautiful place to relax/visit at night. We even had a couple dolphins come by on our last afternoon there.
We had a wonderful time with family!! The home was beautiful and well equipped. We had plenty room for everyone. The beds were comfortable. The host was very nice and helpful. We hope to come again next year!!!!
We had a wonderful stay. We were a large group and there was plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. The property itself is stunning with amazing views. There was plenty for everyone to do, from just relaxing to enjoying the water. The hosts are amazing and so easy to communicate with if needed. Highly recommend.
This property was perfect for our purposes. We needed a place to gather for a lunch for my Dad who passed away a few months back. He preferred we have a small reunion and lunch with family instead of a funeral. This place was perfect. Comfortable and cozy for our get together. We stayed two nights. We will book the ReelBlessing again!
The host is very responsive and helpful. House is full of condiments. Only missing sugar. The roof deck is incredible. You can watch sunrise and sunset there.
The place was clean, spacious, well decorated, convenient to beach, fishing, kayaking and local restaurants. We had plenty of space for our family. The kitchen was awesome to cook in. We could fish, kayak and paddle board all from the back deck. It was a lovely getaway. A perfect place to relax from the stress of normal life. We would definitely come back!

About the host
Hosted by Matt Gates
I've worked in big cities all my life, but I love being out in the country and close to nature. Rockport is close enough to the cities, but far enough away, to feel like a real retreat. From the fishing to the wildlife to the great food, and most importantly, time away with family and friends, Key Allegro is the perfect getaway on the Texas Coast.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with Rockport a long time ago, and I know you will too. We've made our wonderful home in beautiful Key Allegro available for you to do just that, and we'll be here every step of the way to make sure your trip to the Texas Coast is full of memories you won't forget.
What makes this property unique
There's so much room for everyone. Private spaces when you need to get away but four large gathering areas inside and out when you want to spend time with family and friends. And the list of amenities is unmatched by any other rental: private pool; hot tub; Golf Cart Rental on-site; porches, balconies, and rooftop decks; kayaks, paddleboards, darts, a stocked game room; and so much more. There's something for everyone here.
