Welcome to Sea-Esta, a beautifully restored 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom bungalow located in the spectacular Key Allegro community of Rockport, Texas. Perfectly positioned to capture the essence of coastal living, this home offers the ideal blend of luxury and relaxation for a friends' getaway or small family gathering.

Step outside and be immediately enticed by the property's dual appeal: the front features a lovely patio with stunning Aransas Bay views, perfect for sunrises, while the back boasts a premium canal-side location. Here, you'll find numerous outdoor seating areas, including a screened-in porch for dining and an open back patio. The property provides direct canal access for fishing right from the dock, complete with a well-lit fish cleaning station for your fresh catch.

Inside, "Sea-Esta" lives up to its name, providing a serene atmosphere and tasteful decor throughout. The layout is brightened by an open-concept design encompassing a very spacious kitchen and comfortable living room.

The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances and vast counter space, offering both a breakfast bar with seating for 6 and a dedicated dining table for 6. The property's coastal personality is evident in every detail, making it a true home away from home.

This cozy bungalow comfortably accommodates guests across three well-appointed bedrooms. The primary bedroom features a king bed, an en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a beautiful canal view. The two delightful guest bedrooms share a second hall bathroom with a walk-in shower; one offers a queen bed, and the other features two twin beds. Both guest rooms are afforded pleasant bay views.

The enviable location in Key Allegro puts you minutes from endless fun and adventure.

The house was great but was on a very, very busy street. Also the exterior/landscaping was not great . The small backyard was overgrown and although we reported the condition our 1st day there, nothing got done.

Nice house and decor, very homey. Super clean inside and the beds were quite comfortable. The sun porch is nice, we enjoyed it but the furniture could use some cleaning. Railed deck was great; fished right from it!! Property could use some outside maintenance but did not affect our stay in the least. The stairs were a bit awkward; steep and narrow.We had a good time and enjoyed our vaca stay at sea Esta. Would recommend it to others.

Property was welcoming of pets. There was a lot of overgrown trees, shrubs and miscellaneous green plants. The outside of the house is very outdated, loose front boards, needs fresh paint. Eye sore. Inside the house, the smell of mildew was overwhelming, the house needs leveling as every room was slanted, furniture was dirty and smelled, outside patio outdated, loose patio boards, cosmetic damage throughout inside and out. Showers had mildew and black mold. Black mold throughout the inside and outside of the house.Pictures provided before renting were very misleading and construction going on across the street.Needs a lot of TLC.
Construction across street unaware until we already paid for rental.
Overgrown
Gross cleaning utensils
Dirty furniture

The home was lovely, the facilities were well maintained except for the beds, which need to be upgraded, and we really enjoyed sitting on the screened in deck. The screen needs maintenance to keep out mosquitoes. There were a few creepy crawlies out there, to be expected. But there was an active construction site across the street which seemed to have been there for a while. We were awakened early Saturday morning by construction noise, which then over shadowed our morning coffee on the deck and relaxing around the house. When I called to complain, they apologized and said they weren't aware. I can't imagine that to be true. I would not have booked this place had I known. Otherwise, we loved it. That beautiful bay front view out the front door no longer exists and those photographs are deceptive. Don't choose this home without verifying the construction won't interfere with your refuge.

Great house on the canal.

Great house. Very clean and well decorated. Comfortable beds and furniture. Nice view of bay in front and canal in back. Loved the screened in porch. Kitchen was well equipped. We cooked there almost every night. Could have used a few more cleaning supplies and grill needed some repair. Overall, highly recommended.

Bayside house

The property was nice and comfortable with several features that contributed to our enjoyment for fishing. The cleaning crew does need to do a better job with the showers as there was mildew/mold along the shower floor in each bathroom.

Pet challenge

Advertised as pet friendly but small yard with many stickers. Had to walk dog to neighbors yard that had way fewer stickers. Otherwise very nice house and location. Would stay again but without dog. Owners should expect more out of their lawn crew. theirlandscape

The property was not well-maintained. The grass had not been mowed, bushes were overgrown, and there was trash just left laying around in the planter beds. The back deck was in ill-repair and a family member almost fell through the rotted boards. The supposed gas grill was instead a charcoal grill that had old charcoal ashes running over in a container underneath the grill. They totally skimped on the household supplies such as toilet paper, paper towels, and household cleaners. We had to buy our own. The only thing that I can say positive was that it was a great location and the managers/owners were responsive when we told them about the deck and they sent someone out to patch it.
