Great little place, clean, great location, close to the beach. We stayed at the end of June, beach wasnt busy and was clean. We would definitely stay again. Great company of Piglet the cat :)

Relaxing and quite.

Love this place! Cozy bungalow with all the extras! Private beach access ….perfect vacation getaway! Would highly recommend! Thanks Cate & Tom!

The Beach Bungalow exceeded our expectations! Our kids said it was their best vacation ever, and they are now in love with the ocean. We couldn’t ask for more! I miss my kids filling my pockets with beach treasures. My daughter and I each found a shark tooth! Our nightly crab hunts were also a lot of fun. The water was mostly calm with mild waves for boogie boarding and kayaking. Piglet the cat greeted us each morning and even joined us on the beach one evening. He helped our house feel like a home. We loved coming back to our cozy cottage after visiting the aquarium, the outlet mall, IFLY and the VA Beach boardwalk. We enjoyed dinners at the local Stony’s and Captain Groovy’s and did our grocery shopping at Food Lion. Very conveniently located! It was the perfect family vacation!

We had a wonderful stay at the Beach Bungalow! The location can’t be beat. We loved being steps from the beach. We saw many dolphins and crabs. Piglet was a joy and never failed to remind us of dinner time. We didn’t do much cooking but the kitchen seemed to be well stocked with everything. Had a little issue with the A/C and Tom took care of it immediately! Would definitely stay here again!

Cate and Tom were amazing hosts. They were quick to respond to any messages and helped out several times. They were very kind and followed up to ensure we had a good time. The bungalow is beautifully situated on the beach with a little path. We loved getting to use the Kayaks and the beach shed was well stocked. I wished we could have gotten to use the fire pit, but the weather decided to be cold and wet most of the trip. The house is very intimate and reminded me of my childhood home with the lay out. I was disappointed that the piano and writing desk weren't available for use, but the hot tub more than made up in its size and heat. Of course the star of the trip was Piglet! He immediately greeted us when we arrived and we delighted in putting some weight on him. I loved going out on the deck and for him to follow me so we could watch the water together.

Property is well taken care of. After a long day we enjoyed the iJoy chair for a massage, then the hot tub to top that off. Tom and Cate were very nice. View from the Crow's Nest is the perfect spot for waking with morning coffee.

The house is a perfect location for a family vacation. The beach is right there and the grocery store is just down the street. For rainy or cool days, the house is 30 minutes or less from museums.

We had a great time at the bungalow. Perfect place for a family vacation. We felt so comfortable in the house. The beach was nice and clean. The water was calm being on the bay! There are so many nice day trips near by like Colonial Williamsburg and Virginia Beach. House was clean, the hot tub is older and missing some parts but still worked and was comfortable on the colder nights!

The Bungalow was just as described. The owners were wonderful - prompt with responses to our questions. There was a threat of flooding due to storms and they made sure to check in on us and even offered to drive us if needed. And Piglet was so cute - waiting at the door each morning :)

Kat and Tom were lovely Hosts. Very prompt to respond and helped us with any questions we had. The accommodation was lovely and cozy and Clean. It was exactly how it is described. Its situated on the beach, with the roof top terrace, it's was so enjoyable to watch the dolphins We booked this for the location, and boy, we were so happy. Just steps down onto the beach. The beach was so clean. I will be booking this again. Thankyou Tom and Kat !

This is our second vacation together at the Beach Bungalow. Most everyone spent the day at the beach, mostly because it was such a short walk back to the house for snacks, lunch, etc.. After dinner, there's the fire pit and then end the day in the hot tub! You can't beat it for peace and quiet...though a day trip to Virginia Beach and the aquarium is an extra!

We absolutely love going to the bungalow every year! The house is perfect for any beach lover. It is just steps away from the water! Cate & Tom are amazing with answering any questions and giving great recommendations!

A lot of ocean life this time of year.

This vacation home is wonderful. Peaceful and calm with tons of privacy. Everything was easily accessible for us. The house was very clean and great for our stay. Really appreciated the house book and spending time with Piglet!

We enjoyed our time at the Beach Bungalow very much. The house is very clean and has everything you need for a great, relaxing beach getaway. The view from the upper deck is phenomenal and the short walk down the stairs to the beach was perfect. The biggest plus is the lack of crowds on the beach. It was perfect. We will definitely consider staying here again.

Perfect location to enjoy the beach and sun! My family had a wonderful time and we plan to return to the beach bungalow. The upper deck is perfect to enjoy the sunrise and picturesque views!

Everything was great. The house, the ocean and the quietness. Looking forward to next year.

We love this house! This was our second stay at the beach bungalow and it was just as wonderful as it was in 2020. It is such a relaxing place and perfect for our family. The kids had their own space and so did we. Being so close to the beach is amazing and makes it so much more enjoyable. We thought it might be more crowded than 2020 but it wasn’t. The Bay is perfect with waves that are just the right size for kids. There were other families on the beach but so far away we couldn’t even hear them. It was like we had a private beach. The kids built sand castles and played in the waves without disturbing anyone. We couldn’t ask for a better location. The new beach chairs were a nice surprise. They were fantastic! Everything in the house is so easy to find. It is well maintained and the new flooring is beautiful. Everything we needed was there. Tom and Cate do a great job making this home comfortable. It was nice to meet Tom in person as we were leaving and chat with him. Rebecca (who comes to clean) even recognized us from 2 years ago and stopped to chat as well. Everyone was so nice! The only issue I had was the bed in the green room is very loud. I thought initially it was the frame, but that felt solid. I think it was actually the box springs and maybe the mattress. Every time I sat on the bed, rolled over during the night, or got up to the bathroom, it was so loud it woke my husband up. Sometimes it sounded like it might break. We told Rebecca and she said she would let Tom know, which is great. It was definitely not something that would cause me to give a bad review at all! The ceiling fans in all the rooms do an amazing job with the air conditioning to keep the house comfortable (I froze my kids out!) which was nice to come home to after being out in the heat! We even had a cool enough evening that we were able to enjoy the hot tub without overheating. We like going to different places and experiencing new things with our kids, but this house called to us to return. You are really spoiled by the location. We will be back again for sure. The beach will call us back! Thank you Tom and Cate for sharing your beautiful bungalow with us 😊😊

We had a really nice stay. The place is somewhat dated in a not-so-great part of town. But it was awesome to have basically a private beach to ourselves on the calm water of the Chesapeake Bay.

Very nice property. clean and comfortable. Great location and a perfect fit for our family. Loved the close proximity to the beach and the peaceful and uncrowded beach was a definite plus! Made for a comfortable and restful vacation for us. Would love to return!

Great experience from start to finish. We didn’t have any issues, and the beach and views were amazing!

We had a great visit at this Bayfront cottage. We had the beach to ourselves most days. The kids loved having piglet to feed. The house is older but very clean and functional. Lots of little thoughtful items from soap to nightlights.. highly recommend a stay here. It was our first time on the bay instead of ocean and it was perfect foe our kids who are learning swimmers vs the more dangerous ocean area. Owners were friendly helpful and responsive. Thanks for the memories.

My wife and I loved Bungalow and location of it. All 4 of our grandkids loved the fact that we could walk out a short distance to our own beach. I did have to contact the owner just once about a small matter with a door and he took care of it in short order. Overall it was a great week even with having to deal with a couple days of rain.

We couldn't have found a more perfect place than the Beach Bungalow to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Out the front door of the Bungalow were all the amenities of the city of Norfolk and nearby Virginia Beach. Out the back door was our own private beach sanctuary. We particularly enjoyed the view, and the Zen moments we shared on the balcony; enjoying a meal, relaxing with coffee or an adult beverage, and playing backgammon as the waves crashed just a short distance away. Tom and Cate were very flexible in scheduling our specific date request, and they were a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. Tom also quickly addressed a couple of very minor issues we encountered during our stay. And, of course, we can't forget Piglet, who stole our hearts. We highly recommend the Beach Bungalow to any and everyone. We made wonderful memories during our visit, and we look forward to staying there again in the future.

Neighborhood has nice, beach was nice to walk and not populated at all. Beds and Furniture could use upgrades. Metal and uncomfortable, squeaked every time you roll over, piano takes up space they could use for some comfortable furniture. Some Outdoor furniture was broken and is need of replacements. Loved the shed with the beach chairs and extras… if your beaching it it was nice!

We had a great time relaxing in this great little beach bungalow! The property was sparkling clean, short walk down a flight of stairs in the back yard to the beach, great upper deck with a beautiful view and a private and screened hot tub made for a perfect Covid friendly getaway for our honeymoon! Easy to get around town with a car and driver over to Virginia Beach, close to the Chesapeake Bay bridge, & great food nearby. This is a great spot for couples, friends, & families. Cate was delightful and easy to communicate with and super accommodating. We loved our stay!
