Bay View Inn was excellent for a weekend fishing getaway! The room was very clean very nice, and the beds were comfortable. Very well kept. AC was nice and cold at night. The location was perfect for what we were doing, and where we were going to be. I will definitely stay there again!

Disappointed stay
For the price I thought was going to be better, the location close to the bay 5 points but needs more attention on cleaning the very first day we found a cockroach down on the floor close to bed, they have to change towels every day because they didn't, the white towels was tanned not white and the place has a smell. I do not booking in this place again. This was debut and farewell !!

Great value right on the bay and only 30 minutes from activities in Port Aransas. Within walking distance of the quaint shops on the main drag in Rockport.

The courtyard was beautiful. Walking distance to the water, restaurants, a shaved ice hut we like, and live entertainment. Just be aware that the noise levels are sometimes lively.
