Great place to stay with friends and family. There is something for every age group and nothing that the owner has not thought of. The area is near everything and beaches are great.
We absolutely loved our stay at the "He Crab She Crab" house! The location was perfect for a family reunion over the holiday. Communication with the host was excellent from booking to checking out. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed for cooking and entertaining family. We were just a few blocks from the beach and the area was very quiet and relaxing. We would definitely book this home again when we come back to Virginia for a family vacation!
Perfect week spent with my adult children and grandsons. Plenty of amenities great for family with young children. Beautiful property with play area for kids in the backyard and canal where we fished and kayaked. We absolutely enjoyed our stay.
This property was perfect for our multi-aged family: from six months old to 71 years, everything was provided for all of us! Elaine and Mark are wonderful hosts - the home comes with many amenities that made traveling with young children effortless. We especially enjoyed the bikes. Beach access was close by and even easier to use since we could cycle over. I recommend this property highly!
My family really loved the house and the beautiful yard! Location was very nice. The owners went above and beyond making sure the house was stocked with everything we could need. We all enjoyed the kayaks and bikes and loved the view from the back deck!
We rented a gold cart from sandbridge rentals so that we could get to the ocean safely and quickly but the bay was very pretty, quiet and offered a fishing dock the kids loved.Thank you, it was a great family get away
This place is so great for families! There are toys, kids bikes, games, a crib, a high chair, stroller, wagon, and a full play set in the backyard! My family and I enjoyed our stay so much that we already started planning another trip next year.
We really enjoyed our stay at He Crab She Crab. The house was comfortable, very clean, and fully stocked. Our kids took advantage of the bikes, fishing dock, and kayaks. Neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The owners were responsive to all of our questions and offered great suggestions on places to eat and activities for kids to do. This was our first time in Sandbridge and we loved it! Will definitely come back again.
We had a wonderful stay at this property.my three young grandchildren enjoyed the swings in the backyards , bikes and kayaking with their parents.The house is very spacious and we appreciated the nursery with a crib for my 20 month old granddaughter . Kitchen is very well equipped , had we known they had the instapot there we would not have lugged our instapot all the way!Definitely would consider using this place for another family summer trip.
This was a wonderful home. It was clean and well equipped with kitchen ware and plenty of spaces to relax. The owners were reachable and quick to respond. Would stay again!
The house is great being on the canal was very nice great kayaking bicycling but the beach was further than anticipated

We are so glad you enjoyed the week. As stated in the description, the beach is a 10 minute walk at a leisurely pace down our side street which has to curve around the canal in order to reach the beach. We provide adult and child bikes and a wagon that can be taken to the beach for a 4 minute ride. The nice part about the walk/ride is that it is on a nice safe side street and is one of the few wide enough for pedestrians and bicyclists to travel without having to move over on the shoulder when vehicles approach.
We enjoyed our family vacation in Sandbridge! This rental property was fully equipped for the 14 month and 16 month grandchildren! We loved the beach wagon, strollers, baby bike seat, high chairs and gate at the top of the stairs! The toddlers played with the sandbox and play set too! The beach is walkable, but closer may have been better with the little ones.
The house was amazing, has a lot of rooms for everyone to spread out of alone time is needed, as well as large areas to come together and have a meal. Elaine was quick to respond through text message and offered many suggestions of local restaurants and places to go. We were able to use the kayaks and paddle along the inlet which beats any rental place! We enjoyed staying here and would absolutely consider again, thank you!
He Crab She Crab is a fantastic property with lots to offer and only a couple minutes to the beach. We enjoyed staying at this property. It had everything we needed to enjoy a great family vacation. Communication was great from the owners.
Thanks for helping make memories that will last a lifetime.
The home was just perfect for our family vacation! Kitchen well stocked and spacious! House was super clean. Our boys loved fishing in the canal. The hosts are super helpful
This property had a great location , was very kid friendly, very helpful with suggestions. The property was very comfortable , well supplied, it seems like it is being step by step renovated- downstairs bathroom newly remodeled but upstairs shower in upstairs masters will need updated,. We had a wonderful time

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. You are correct, the upstairs tub developed a crack which could only be patched as we were unable to replace it with the limited time between rentals on Saturdays this summer. It is scheduled to be replaced next week and we thank you for your understanding.
Our group stayed at the property while attending a local wedding. Overall the home provided what was needed and the owners communicated well. However there were some concerns which we discussed with the owners Please confirm with owners that repairas were done to dock and deck before renting.

Thank you for your feedback and for staying at our home during your time in town for the wedding. As you know, we arrived promptly after you contacted us to assess the dock and begin repairs. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention and for speaking with us directly. Since then, additional repairs have been completed to ensure everything is safe and in good condition for future guests. We’re always striving to improve and welcome the opportunity to host you again.
The property is perfect for all ages. The house and amenities make it feel like home. Our grandsons will always remember catching their first fish from the back yard. And the owners are great to work with.
