Poseidon - 120 Year Old Beach Cottage with Sauna

Kim & GreggRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved everything about our stay at Poseidon! The apartment was lovely, bright and clean with a very well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and nice linens. The shared outdoor space is one of the nicest we've seen on a beach house - well tended wooden walkways all around, lots of nice outdoor seating, great grill lovely "beach bar" type perch to sit and look over the water. We used the sauna every night and all of the available amenities as much as possible. We highly recommend this property!

Bayview Bliss

ElizabethRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Wow! What a fabulous loft! Karin paid attention to every detail. The loft was well-stocked and had everything you need! Most impressive were the immaculate nature of the space and the VIEWS! The balcony was the best place for a morning cup of coffee...secluded, private, peaceful, and beautiful! This loft is brand new and so clean! Karin also allowed me to check out late and was an excellent communicator! Check in was easy and her directions were clear! Thanks for an amazing stay, Karin. I'll be booking next year, same time!

Private Entrance Apartment on the Chesapeake

JoshuaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Erin’s place was the getaway that we definitely needed. We spent our time enjoying the sunsets (stunning pastel colors across the water), watching movies, cooking together, and had a nice meal at a local diner, too (which was recommended in the listing)! The place was so clean, well equipped, and very homey/comfortable. Being situated right on the beach, where in the mornings you can see all of the bay from the windows in the living room and kitchen. Erin was so personable and responsive which we so appreciated. She gave all the information you could need about not just the AirBnB, but the surroundings as well. We felt right at home. They have wonderful neighbors who we met on the beach one of the evenings. Everyone was just so friendly. They were enjoying a beach fire and we talked for a while about how amazing the area is. We have already decided we absolutely will be staying here again! This is the best kept secret quiet beach hideaway! My partner and I LOVED it!

Cape Charles Plantation Home “Nevill’s Nook Suite”

PattiRating, 5 stars9 months ago
Charming Cape Charles getaway! I was so happy to find this gem and even more thrilled when I arrived. From the beautiful landscape of the gated community, to the southern charm of this glorious suite…I wanted for nothing. This enormous suite has all the comforts of home and the location was spectacular. The property offered not only a private beach on the bay , a community pool, a beautiful well maintained golf course, it was also a short drive to the charming town of Cape Charles. Dawn offered endless advice to her favorite restaurants, activities to do and places to see while we visited. She was just a text or call away if I needed anything. Her hospitality was beyond measure. I look forward to coming back.

Private Beach Getaway at Finest Chesapeake Bay

TashenaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
This home is absolutely beautiful. I loved being able to wake up early and watch the sun rise over the Chesapeake bay. Even though it was cold the kids enjoyed splashing in the water with their rain boots. We spent the Wednesday before Thanksgiving at colonial Williamsburg. Afterwards we ate at Captain George’s, a place Tas recommended. It was absolutely worth it. I was also pleased with being able to make a good Thanksgiving meal. The stay was relaxing and peaceful. We would love to come back in the near future.

Waterfront FamilyFriendly Home Improved for 2023

BethRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Karen's place! For most of the time the weather was rainy, windy and chilly, so we did not get to enjoy the outdoors as we would have liked. But the views were still amazing - made even more dramatic and beautiful with the dark and stormy skies! The home was cozy and comfortable - a real treat to be there! Would definitely return to this amazing place!

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was very beautiful and clean! It had gorgeous views and I loved sitting by the water and enjoying the nature in the backyard! The beach was about half a mile walk and we all absolutely loved the semi private beach. The hosts were super amazing and made my daughter’s birthday feel very special with surprise balloons and a very beautiful card! Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we would definitely come again and recommend this property to all our friends!

Weems Waterfront Getaway on Taylor Creek 🎣🚣🏻‍♀️🛶🌅

Mollye-RichardRating, 5 stars5 months ago
One of the very best Air BnB rentals we've ever had. The other one we normally use in the NN was rented for the dates we wanted. This one was available, it looked good, so we gave it a try. It's tied as our #1 favorite place to stay. We'll be back here next year as it is so close and convenient to everything and the home was terrific!

The Port - Large condo on Mason Avenue!

RawleyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Look no further… this place is amazing! The main living room / kitchen area is huge, comfortable, and gets TONS of natural light. The private elevated patio is a great place for breakfast or general lounging. Both bedrooms are spacious and well equipped with very comfortable beds. We thoroughly enjoyed being in the space! The location is excellent, right on the main drag close to all the restaurants and eateries. It’s also a very easy walk down to the pier or over to the Shanty. Khyber was very easy to communicate with and helped accommodate our little one. 5-stars all the way!

Thank you so much Merlyn, Rick and Cecilio for welcoming us to your beautiful home. The space was so cozy, bright and clean. We felt right at home as soon as we checked in, the instructions were super easy to follow. My dog had so much room to play, and we loved our walks on the beach - even after the snowstorm! The area is so calm and peaceful and it felt like we were right at home, the bathroom, amenities and decor are stunning! The gym was just what I needed as well to get some movement. We can’t wait to come back when it’s warmer out, thank you for everything!

This place is beautiful, exactly like the pictures. This was a very peaceful and spacious place for two. Host was very attentive with inquiries we had. The only issue was that the washers and dryers were very overpriced.
