The air conditioning kept me awake the time I was there. So we left a day early. I was told I could move rooms as there were 2 on the second floor, BUT was told by the maintenance a/c guy that those rooms also had loud A/C’s. I also have trouble climbing stairs as I have a bad back and knee. I was also told by this guy that the new owners are gradually replacing the a/c units but that will take time. The elevator was broken when we were there. We were booked in for 3 nights and left the day before by 11am. I wiykd like to be refunded for the day we didn’t stay. Please contact me. Thank you

The hotel was an absolute delight. Staff were extremely pleasant and friendly. Our room was in great location to the pool which our kids loved!! We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was amazing! Our waiter/bartender did an excellent job. If you are thinking of staying here, this is a very quaint place and highly recommend it! My family can't wait to come back again.

We love Rockport. We've been going there every year, at least once a year, always staying at The Lighthouse Inn. The hotel is practically on the water. The views on the Bay of Aransas are stunning. The dolphins come daily very close to the shore, we see a Blue Heron and a Great Egret checking the fishing port next door. We also loved the food they served in their own restaurant, but there is also a great seafood restaurant, Charlotte Plumbers, within a walking distance, and a few authentic, great Mexican food restaurants (Jalisco was our favorite) nearby.
Great Egret below our balcony.

Overall, perfect place for serene and quiet stay. Free breakfast is good. The facility overall is not a new structure, but been maintained well. Receptionist, pleasing and accommodating. The only thing that sticks to me is the old-room smell, didn’t bother me a lot but you can tell. Location will give you nice Bay view. Hot tub and pool located at the garden area, though found some few insects/dirt floating. The INN is also in the proximity of various spots like the public Rockport Beach, The Mansion, and parks.
