Rockport Texas
is an exciting place located on the Texas Coastal Bend. The smell of the salt
in the air and the feel of the sand under your feet make you feel as though you
belong there. And the Rockport Texas hotels in this resort area make it easy to
stay.
A personal favorite is the Lighthouse
Inn at Aransas Bay. This Victorian style lighthouse, with its seventy eight
rooms, just coaxes you in. each room has a lovely balcony with views of the
well manicured gardens or of the Gulf. The afternoon breeze keeps things a very
pleasant temperature all day. Forty six of the rooms are suites for both
business and leisure. There are several types of suites in this Rockport Texas
hotel, our favorite was the Captain’s Suite. Our own little apartment, this was
home for us for a week. With a full size kitchen, living room and bedroom, it
was just like home. I didn’t get the feel that this location is kid friendly as
they do cater primarily to the professional and business crowd.
The Laguna
Reef Hotel is located right on the gulf and is a great lodge for leisure
travelers. Dogs are welcome, for a small daily charge. You can make the choice
of a kitchen, kitchenette, or simple a microwave and small refrigerator, indicate your preference when you make your reservation. The pool is outdoors, overlooking the gulf
and is a welcome relief to the heat of summer. This Rockport
Texas hotel welcomes out-of-towners and will gladly offer ideas and advice
when you are planning your daily adventure.
