Job Description

The Cove at Rockport is a charming 21-room boutique hotel located in the picturesque town of Rockport, Massachusetts. Known for its stunning ocean views and modern amenities, the hotel offers a unique blend of coastal tranquility and urban convenience. Guests can enjoy mornings filled with fresh coffee while gazing at the ocean waves, afternoons spent on the shared deck, and close proximity to downtown's vibrant art scene, shopping, and dining options. The Cove at Rockport caters to a diverse clientele, including couples seeking romantic getaways, families looking for memorable vacations, and individuals planning retreats. Open year-round, the hotel features various room sizes to accommodate different needs, along with an outdoor lounge and bar bites, providing a comprehensive hospitality experience.

We are currently seeking a dedicated part-time housekeeper to join our team and uphold the high standards of cleanliness and guest satisfaction synonymous with The Cove at Rockport. This role is integral to ensuring that each guest's stay is comfortable, welcoming, and memorable. Working approximately 15-18 hours per week, primarily during weekday mornings from 9:30 am to about 3 pm, this position requires flexibility with weekend and holiday availability.

Additionally, the housekeeper will assist guests by answering general questions about hotel services and local attractions, as well as helping them understand how to use technological amenities like door locks and HVAC controls.

Beyond the regular cleaning tasks, the housekeeper may also perform extra cleaning duties, including deep cleaning, window washing, and steam cleaning to maintain the hotel's sparkling reputation. We seek a cleaning enthusiast who is highly organized, a team player, and has a strong work ethic. The ideal candidate will be proficient with technology, comfortable using apps, phones, and keypads, supporting our commitment to delivering a seamless guest experience.

This role offers competitive hourly compensation ranging from $18 to $20, reflecting the importance of quality housekeeping to our overall guest satisfaction. Joining The Cove at Rockport means becoming part of a welcoming and supportive community dedicated to excellence in hospitality.
