We spent a long weekend in Ocean View beach and this was a perfect location for us to catch some concerts at the Hampton Coliseum and spend the days at the beach. Nancy was a great host who was very responsive. Great trip!

This is a nice duplex with cute beachy decorations. It was well stocked and had a great coffee bar area. We went to Ocean View Beach Park just a couple of minutes away. It is a nice beach. Thank you for letting us stay with you!

The only thing stopping me from 5 stars is the stairs going up to the front door. They are really steep and don’t have a hand rail.

Very nice property. Everything was neat and clean. I didn't cook much but kitchen had everything I think you would need. Linens were nice. Bedding was comfortable. Very close to beach. Chesapeake Bay and Virginia Beach is a 15 min drive. So close that hurricane Erin delayed getting into the property. Erin was a fluke. Do not hesitate to stay here. The best part of the stay was property owner Nancy. She was wonderful and helped me greatly during the issue with high tide. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

I would to start of by saying Nancy was very pleasant, professional, and attentive to all my needs prior to my stay. The night of she asked was everything going well in which I love the fact the owner is caring. The rental was sooo beautiful, cozy and had all necessities that we needed during our stay( in fact I was surprised with all the supplies that was there that I didn't really had to use my necessities that I've brought with me). I also love the fact the location is near the pier ( great scenery. I will absolutely book her rentals again and will refer her to my family and friends. Thank you again Nancy!!
