We were supposed to go to Siesta Key Florida but got washed out by Hurricane Helene. So, we had to scramble and pick a different direction. We chose Virginia Beach. We chose well. The condo was very nice, beach was clear. Local food was good. We had a very nice trip. The condo is spacious and nice. Also well equipped ! We highly recommend a stay here!

Off season getaway
We had a wonderful time staying in this condo. The location was perfect with easy access to restaurants and quiet areas to explore like the Wildlife Refuge. The condo was exactly as described and very clean upon arrival. The beds and sofa were comfortable and the owners kindly provided shampoo, conditioner, and a few days supply of tp, trash bags, and dishwashing detergent. A big bonus for us was the close proximity to the large VA Beach pickleball complex. We spent our mornings on the courts and our afternoons relaxing on the beach. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your condo for a much needed weekend of rest and relaxation. We hope to be back next year.

Excellent Beach Vacation
Beautiful condo with all the latest amenities. We had plenty of room for six guests. The owners keep their property well maintained. We loved in the evenings chilling out watching a movie on their 70 inch tv with surround sound. Each bedroom has their own tv as well. Property is a minute or two walk from the beach. We would definitely recommend. The owners are very responsive too.

Cute, comfortable, and convenient but…
Great space for a medium sized family to enjoy VA Beach away from the main strand. Hosts put a lot of effort into making this space a “home away from home”. Unfortunately, my girlfriend and I spent the weekend brushing what we believe to have been pet hair off our clothes and sweeping away one or two dead insects. The biggest disappointment was a lack of hot water in the guest bath. To their credit the hosts notified us in advance of the problem and did their best to fix it before our arrival. However, our request for a % reduction in the per night rate was dismissed out of hand. In spite of the issue with the hot water, the hosts requested a 5 star review (or none at all) and were very detailed about how we could make things easier on housekeeping as we exited the property. Had it not been for the hot water and dissuasiveness, we’d absolutely stay again. For future vacationers, this might have been a one off occurrence but beware. Go Devils!

Short walk to the beach. Somewhat above average.
Good location. The nice beach is wide and was sparsely populated but was because of the Easter weekend and cooler weather. I can’t imagine it being like this during the summer vacation season. Hard to get the “lay of the land” at first esp finding the way to the courtyard where the grills were. Glad we found one that worked as several seemed out of order or broken. It’s an older condo building. The exterior was a bit grungy but the unit itself was updated and had everything we needed. The double-switched entranceway/hall light was annoying with the motion detector because it would come on when walking out of any room even though it was turned off at the other switch. The TV has an unending selection of apps which is great if you have subscriptions and can login.

Great, relaxing unit on the beach. It was cold, but the unit was cozy. Nice floors, kitchen, and a lot of space. We really liked all the seating options in the main living area. Lights and drawers were labeled which was a major plus. Make sure to ask the nearby restaurants when their kitchen closes in the off season. However, it all worked out!

Stayed a couple of nights with our family. Clean, comfortable unit and beds. Nice layout and attractive beach decor. Great communication with owners. Very detailed information that made parking, check-in and entry so easy. Owner provided all basics to get the vacation started with ease. Even provided a small flat dolly to help you wheel your stuff from your car to the unit and back again on check out. Mexican restaurant in complex was great. There was a seafood restaurant across the street but we didn’t sample it. Loved that we had views of the water from the balcony. Quick walk to the beach. Happy we could have our fur baby with us too!
