Our stay at the house was great. The beds were comfy, air conditioner worked great, house was very clean and easy to get to. We were in town to pick up our son who was graduating from Fort Ustis and was only a 20 minute drive. Would stay again if we were in the area.

This was our second stay at Faraja House, and we enjoyed it as much as the first time. My friends and I stayed here for a tennis tournament. The location is excellent for us, and it’s the perfect size. I barely heard any trains this time - they don’t bother us anyway. The property is very private and feels safe, but at the same time you are close to everything. The outdoor space is huge! Faraja House will definitely be my go to place to stay with my friends!!

Great!

We booked this rental literally hours before heading to Virginia from New Jersey and the hosts were so accommodating and responsive.The rental is exactly as described, very cozy and clean. They have every kitchen appliance known to man and a spacious backyard.When I asked if they had extra garbage bags, the host delivered it to our door within minutes. The price was great for what we rented as well!

Not good experience

We were contacted 30 minutes prior to checkin to let us know that we would be unable stay due to toilet issues. A few hours later the home was relisted at higher price. My family was 1230 miles from home and had to scramble to find a place. With the higher price listing it makes me wonder if there was really issues. Thank goodness for Hampton Inn having a room us.

Wonderful and extremely comfortable house.

Well maintained and more than adequately stocked with anything you would ever need to live. The kitchen appliances and amenities are fit for a chef… Quiet neighborhood large yard and close to shopping. Easy to get to and find. Ed and Margeret are very responsive and kind.

This stay was like taking home where you want to be. It was a cozy clean home with the added extra of decorum. We were in town for a wedding and our kids who live in other states from us came by for breakfast and it felt like they came home...thank you

Perfect

My husband is receiving cancer treatment at the Hampton Proton Center. We live in Virginia beach, and going through the tunnel five days a week is very stressful. So staying close to the Center eliminated all the stress. Accommodations were perfect. If more treatment is needed in January, he'll be back, for sure! Asante sana, Margaret and Ed

Wonderful accomodations

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Faraja House. The home was beautiful, clean, fully furnished, and completely stocked with everything a family would need. The neighborhood was quiet and close to so everything. Our hosts were amazing. We accidentally forgot a pair of boots and they were shipped back to us. We hope to stay there again.
