We had a great week at this house. The house is very bright and open, and well equipped with all essentials including beach supplies. The air conditioning is very nice and cool; we did not touch the thermostat once (and it was very hot outside during our stay). My only complaint about the house is there were no closets available to use, which is a bummer if you pack things that need hung up. We loved sitting outside watching all of the ships and boats on the bay. We also saw a lot of dolphins. The beach is nice and kept clean. One downside is there are not many restaurants or places to shop close by. We had to drive about 25 minutes to Virginia Beach for eating out and shopping. However, the neighborhood is very quiet so that is a plus.

Location is the reason to come. Easy beach access, uncrowded beach. Great communication with questions. The house has had a lot of changes since the pictures that are posted mostly affecting the sleeping quarters. Overall enjoyed our stay but for the price, expected a bit more "finesse" to the house. Kitchen is great but no microwave.

Good beachfront.

I swoon. When I go on vacation, I rely on more than just the sand and waves to take me away. The visual aesthetic of my living quarters is very important to me, and this lovely home did not disappoint on that front. I'm a sucker for décor and good vibes. This place was the perfect combination of feeling "at home" yet also away at a swanky vintage bungalow.....beachfront! We have been coming to this area of Virginia Beach for many years and we by far prefer the Bayside! I feel so lucky I found this gem nestled in our very favorite part of town. The view from the dunes was spectacular for coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. The walkway to the chairs on top of dunes and the area around the hammock could use a little grooming/cutting back to clear the way more. We also fell in love with the covered porch with ceiling fan on the back-side of the house, even though that's not the water-front side. We are storm watchers who enjoyed several afternoon downfalls out there playing cards & sipping wine. The porch allowed us to stay outside when we would otherwise have been stuck inside. Overall, charming, private and direct beach access, with the ideal bayside pace that we adore. All the feels- Thank you to you and your family for sharing your home and your piece of the Chesapeake with us.

We really enjoyed our stay! The house was beautiful. It was very nicely decorated and felt warm and cozy. Communication with the owners was responsive during our stay. Being right on the beach was so amazing and the bay waters were just so lovely, calm and relaxing! One note for the owners would be to update the bedroom/basement photos for the listing. We were expecting a different layout for sleeping arrangements for our kids based on the listing photos and felt like the bedroom rearrangements inside the house resulted in a lack of privacy for our older children. It wasn't a huge deal and in the end we made it work, it is just something worth noting especially if you have older kids that need more privacy than the younger ones!

The house was perfect for our family of 5 (3 teens). It was beautifully decorated, very comfortable, and had a well-stocked kitchen. It was very close to the market and local restaurants and about a 25-minute drive to Virginia Beach. This house appeared to be one of very few that had direct beach access which we greatly appreciated and enjoyed! The beach was beautiful. The owner was gracious and very responsive. Definitely a wonderful family beach getaway! Our only note would be that the backyard does not appear as in the pictures. There was a great deal of growth that changed the view and made sitting in the area where the hammock is less desirable. Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

The house has plenty of space for our group of 3 adults and two young kids. It was clean, beds and seating were comfortable, and the view could not be better. Location was really great and appreciated the private access to the beach. Communication with the owner was always pleasant and clear. Close to good restaurants and easy to drive to downtown Norfolk and VA Beach. The only point we wanted to mention was that there was no microwave - there were plenty of other cooking utensils and it's just important to plan accordingly.

perfect location, loved it !
