VA Beach Vacation

We had the best time here! The location of this property was ideal for being able to hit the beach and see all of the sights around town. The house was clean, well-organized, and the outdoor space was HUGE. And the hosts were just amazing - incredibly hospitable and attentive! We will definitely be back :)

Great stay for a family of 4

My family and I had a wonderful time at this home. It was clean and spacious with plenty of amenities to keep the kids busy. The piano was a hit with my daughter and the surprise breakfast was such a treat. Fabulous location with plenty of options for food and a nearby Walmart for grocery pick up or delivery. Crystal and Shaquita were phenomenal host that were quick to respond to any questions I had.

Highly recommend!!

We felt comfortable and at home during our vacation last week. I traveled with my mother, my two adult sons, and my 4-year-old granddaughter. We felt very welcomed by the host and there were snacks and a beautiful fruit and breakfast pastry and sandwich tray waiting for us upon arrival. My granddaughter LOVED the pool and it was very nice to have it all to ourselves! The house was on a quiet street so we could completely relax. We would definitely stay again when visiting VB!

Fantastic Thanksgiving Location

We had a wonderful time at this VA Beach home for Thanksgiving. The owners went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed to cook Thanksgiving dinner and even had the house beautifully decorated for the holidays with a surprise treat for my kids. The house itself was fantastic and in the perfect location for our family. My kids loved all the things to play with, inside and out. Since this house is so nice and so close to my grandmother (and the beach), we will definitely be back.

Outstanding home with all the extras

Having a pool, trampoline, and swing set within steps from the back door — amazing. The beds were comfortable, and the sheets were so soft. Fluffy towels made it feel like a spa experience. Crystal made an delicious breakfast with abundant food. We had so much fun there that it was almost unnecessary to even go to the beach. Our three young daughters enjoyed this home very much. We’d definitely return.

Thank you for this review! I'm so glad your girls had a great time. Breakfast is my pleasure, I enjoy putting an early morning smile on everyone's face. Nothing like a good meal delivered to make your stay a little easier. We really take our linen seriously. I used to work for a large hotel and the noticed how important cleanliness is and now that it is my property I try to exceed peoples' expectations. Our linen is picked up after EACH check out, washed and sanitized with quality detergent and stored with dryer sheets for extra freshness. Next year we will have more upgrades in the backyard to add to the fun activities. Thank you so much for your business.

Central Virginia Beach with pool & lake!

We use HomeAway a lot, & can vouch for this property. It's not for those seeking the 24/7 tourist experience of the Oceanfront. HOWEVER, if you want to mix in some beach time at either the Oceanfront or at Chick's Beach (the locals beach) with peace & quiet, this property is perfect. One queen bed with firm mattress, two twin beds, 1 1/2 baths, pool, firepit, lake, grill, full kitchen and laundry, perfect for a family or small group. Owners are super!!! Five stars all the way.

Very nice property

The hosts are very responsive to questions (and I had a lot) the property is very clean and seems to have everything we needed to cook and enjoy the property. The pool was very clean and a lot of outdoor activities. If there were kids there they would have other things to do too a lot of floats and a soccer net and balls and volleyball net etc yards is fenced the host brought us breakfast one morning that was amazing. About 15 mins from the beach very easy to get to. Literally so many stores and restaurants in the area neighborhood is quiet and nice We had a great stay and would definitely consider booking this house again!! The only suggestion I have is remove that you have a hot tub lol.

Virginia Beach Treasure!

You cannot go wrong with this property. A private backyard pool, fire pit, swing set, basketball hoop, and trampoline are just a few of the things this house offers. Shaquita and Crystal have created a dream beach vacation home that takes all the stress out of traveling with family and children. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to create meals any day. There are TVs everywhere and even gaming systems available to play. The bathrooms and bedrooms are clean and the towels, sheets and blankets are soft. With the beach and boardwalk only a short drive away, you will not regret booking this home. My family and I cannot wait to return. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality, as well as the most delicious breakfast I’ve ever had. -Mary H.

Enjoyed the stay

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The private pool was nice. The area the house was located was nice and quiet. Great for evening walks. And it was located close to a lot of area businesses. There were some things that we felt could have been better. First, the grill. It was incredibly dirty. It had to be scrubbed clean before it could even be used. Second, the board between the kitchen sink and cupboard was broken. If someone needed to open both doors, it would fall to the floor. Third, the air vents in the bedrooms. In the single room, the vent didn't really distribute the air around the room so it was hot and stuffy at night despite turning the air down. The double room, where my husband, kids, and I slept, the bed was loacted directly under an air vent. In this case, it was way too cold so we had to practically close the vent in order to not freeze at night. But with it partially closed, it made the room hot at night. There was really no happy medium. Fourth, the freezer door was practically frozen shut. We were able to open and "fix" it by thawing out the slider that made the door open. It ended up working for the time we were there but we shouldn't have had to devote time to fixing it. The owners were aware of the board and freezer before we arrived but didn't take care of it. We just feel for the amount of money we spent on a vacation home, there were some things that could have made the stay better.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Aug, 2023
This is so disappointing to read, especially because this guest avoided all face to face contact with us and we love hosting. The freezer door is not broken, but when your family left it open it will cause issues with the door track and melt items. I would have happily showed you that was the cause of the problem, rearranged the beds in the room for your comfort and repaired a nonessential cabinet door. As hosts we communicate through out your stay to ensure everyone is enjoying themselves. We only have great reviews because our guests come first. We have never had complaints like this and it would have been beneficial to know of them during your stay, seeing as we spoke 3 times. I didn’t want to demand to stop by or deliver breakfast because this was your first home rental and I know you are unfamiliar with the process. I respected your privacy. Next time make hosts aware of any concerns and allow a moment to resolve them. Thank you kindly.

Exceeded our expectations

We really enjoyed our stay in this clean and beautifully decorated home. The owners went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed plus extras including a delicious homemade breakfast. Not sure we will ever be able to find another home with such gracious hosts. Suitable for young children and everyone enjoyed spending time outside at the pool and making smores at the firepit. The location is perfect as we didn't want to be right on the beach, but within driving distance. Quiet neighborhood. Lots of restaurants and shopping in the area. We had two small families and never had an issue sharing the shower. Two restrooms. Large bedrooms. Thank you so much and I would recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxing home away from home.
