Very clean & well maintained. Staff was very accommodating & friendly. Breakfast was as expected. The bar/restaurant was nice to have on site. The pool looked lovely but it was a little too cold to swim. My only gripe and i have to say it is with most hotels lately, is who picks out the sofa & chairs? They are all uncomfortable. Do you only have one manufacturer that you all have to buy from? Please, try sitting in them first!

Nice quiet getaway for new years
Right on the bay. Beautiful and quiet. Only drawback was the restaurant and bar were closed. New owner waiting on liquor license apparently.

Pleasant experience
not disappoint. It is located right on the water and has gorgeous views. We stayed in the room above the pool area. The porch was nice and had two large rocking chairs. The hostess were always pleasant and greeted you with a smile upon arrival and departure. The laundry area was well maintained and appliances were in good working condition. The rooms were a bit smaller but still very nice. The decor throughout the rooms, hallways, and dining area was beautiful. The shower area were above average in size and made for a very relaxing shower. The beds were extremely comfortable only complaint was more than two pillows were needed. The desk area was very nice. The TV worked great but was smaller than average. The breakfast was five stars and the individual cleaning that area was polite and pleasant. The jacuzzi was well maintained and worked very well.

One of my faves in rockport.
I had stayed in this hotel about 14 years ago, and it was absolutely lovely, very quaint with lots of unique touches. I stayed here a few nights ago, and I noticed that, some of the quaint touches were gone. But it’s still a very clean and very comfortable hotel to stay at.
