Peaceful beach @Courtyard Cottage+No Cleaning Fee!

JessiccaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our family of 7 had a wonderful stay. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived and we felt at home right away. The location was fantastic- private and peaceful but also very convenient to walk out the door and be on the beach in a couple of minutes. My favorite feature was all the amenities provided by the hosts- beach towels, laundry detergent, games and books for the kids, etc. Even just having access to a broom and dustpan to sweep up the sand we tracked in was very helpful (and something we have missed in past Airbnb experiences). We would definitely recommend Richard’s place and would love to stay here again in the future.

Easy Breezy beach house on secluded waterfront

RachelRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our family had the best time at Easy Breezy. Alex had thought of everything when it comes to a vacation home and I can't even put into words how peaceful it was. We kayaked, paddle boarded, fished , napped, sun bathed on the dock and enjoyed the hot tub which was an amazing perk. We caught 6 crabs and some ocean perch. This place had everything you could want and we didn't want to leave. It was by far the best rental we have ever stayed at. Our dogs even had a blast!

Coastal Oasis On The Chesapeake, King Bd sleeps 12

JoyceRating, 5 stars1 month ago
My mom, sisters, friends and I enjoyed a relaxing fun filled time at the Coastal Oasis at the Chesapeake for our Mother's Day Retreat. The view is amazing and truly can be seen from every room in the house! Being able to see the beauty and calmness of the water helped each of us kick back and let the stress melt away. The big dinning room table allowed all of us all to enjoy breakfasts, dinners and touching conversations together. My guests loved the dĂŠcor and raved about every detail. The beds and furniture were comfortable and house clean. I would definitely come back!

Beach Please! River cottage w/private beach & dock

SarahRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My family and I stayed here for a week for our family vacation. We are a group of 8 (6 adults and 2 kids) and there was plenty of room for all of us. We barely left the house because with the beautiful view, dock, beach area, canoe, kayaks, hot tub, game room/ library, corn hole, and fire pit we all had plenty to keep us entertained. Everyone loved Mary & Shelly’s place, and it provided the perfect space for us to enjoy the river and each other’s company!

Beautiful Beachfront Condo

JasonRating, 5 stars5 days ago
My family and I had a great stay at Pam's condo. Condo had plenty of room for our family of 5 and had great views of the ocean from all rooms. The condo was very close to my favorite 2 VB restaurants (Waterman's and Chix on the Beach), which made it nice. I would recommend the trolley to go to the north side of VB as it's about a 2 mile walk from the condo. Great place though and highly recommend Pam's condo.

Positano Villa

RhondaRating, 5 stars2 days ago
We had an amazing time. The house was perfect for us. We really enjoyed the pool and short walk to the beach. We could hear the ocean from the master suite. The upstairs deck had view of the water. Everything about our stay was perfect. The area was nice and was quiet and peaceful. We will definitely go back and stay longer next year. Thank you!!!

Oceanfront Gem VaB Studio Exceptional Views

GingerRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was our second time staying at one of Rebecca and Sean’s VA Beach condos — and the experience did not disappoint! This is just a perfect location, at the very end of the Boardwalk, with a private grassy lawn and outdoor seating just for the condo residents. Lots of restaurants in the surrounding blocks. Our favorite thing is the view — you look right out onto the ocean from the patio, and you can see the beach and the sunrise from the comfortable bed each morning. We spent unhurried hours sitting on the patio in the evenings enjoying the sound of lapping waves and the night sky. This cozy studio was just right for the two of us. Highly recommend. I’ve no doubt we’ll stay there again in the future!

Great location, right on the beach. The place was clean and had everything I needed for my stay. Josh and Maegan were very detailed in their instruction I didn’t have to reach out to them for anything.

Gorgeous Vacation House

AlexisRating, 5 stars5 days ago
The house was super clean when we got there, the temperature of the house was great the entire stay. The pool was certainly clean, but since we went early, June the water was a little bit cold, but it felt really nice and refreshing honestly. There were three beach chairs and a wagon there that were helpful for traveling to the beach. There were available cups plate, utensils, and all the necessities that you would need, they even had shampoo and conditioner bottles there for us. We weren’t aware that there was a code to get into the house so instructions for check-in were a little bit unclear, but all I had to do is message and they responded. Overall, I would recommend staying here because even though the area surrounding isn’t the nicest, I felt safe the entire time at that house!

Oceanfront, beach, boardwalk, fun, dolphin, sunris

AnitaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We enjoyed staying at Kelly's place in VB. Its an ideal location for anyone who wants to stay right at the boardwalk. We witnessed amazing sunrises and moonrises. The ocean was right in front of us and from the 6th floor, the view was expansive. A lot of restaurants were also nearby. Kelly was always very communicative, polite and professional. The apartment was clean with the kitchen well stocked with utensils The bedrooms were of a pretty large size. And parking was on the premises. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and holiday for us. We strongly recommend Kelly's place.

Riverfront Oasis | Kayaks, Private Beach, & More

PaulRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This place was just amazing. The views of James River, and even the Jamestown settlement across the river (using binoculars) was just mind-blowing! Kevin and Jamie left a wide variety of amenities that were extremely thoughtful and useful, to include hygiene products, charging cords (which was a life saver because for literally the first time ever, I forgot my phone and iPad cords), coffee, and even a margarita kit! The cottage is so cozy, and was very clean. I’m definitely going to book here again.

Slice of Heaven on the Lake

SamuelRating, 5 stars1 week ago
It was spur of the moment for our 17th anniversary. Wasn’t looking for anything fancy or Lake Gaston type pricing. It was perfect. Cute little place. HUGE screen porch was amazing which we hung out there every day till late night having wine and playing cards. You can walk out straight to the water and go approx. 75-100’ waste high. Everything was clean, fully stocked…. Just an amazing experience for us! Would highly recommend if you want a waterfront place with great water access with no one around!! Thanks Renee. We will be back

Chesapeake Bayfront Home with Amazing Views!

WilliamRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This waterfront home has gorgeous views. The location is very private and peaceful. Our family really enjoyed fishing from the dock, playing yard games (we brought our own), and just relaxing. Our two-night stay was the perfect amount of time for us to recharge. I would rent the house again.
