Quaint Apartment By the Sea
Clean, safe, easy to get to. Did the job we needed it to for the weekend.

THE OLD SALT A | Beach Living
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Walkable distance to a lot of great restaurants and things to do. Really enjoyed the back deck. Would definitely book again!

Sojourn Guest House: Buckroe Beach Suite B
Maia’s place was super clean and comfortable, the bathroom was nice and it was exactly as described. We had a nice stay here.

LiveEOV: Beachcomber Two
The place was great it had everything that we needed it was walking distance to the beach

VA Beach Oceanfront Studio, Beach, Boardwalk, Pool
Great location, right on the beach. The place was clean and had everything I needed for my stay. Josh and Maegan were very detailed in their instruction I didn’t have to reach out to them for anything.

Fully Renovated Beach Loft Block Off OceanFront
We loved our stay, it’s easy walking distance to the beach and other attractions, 5 min drive to the aquarium. The place was very clean, no sand or anything in the unit upon check in and we overall had a very positive experience.

Tree Top Beach Bungalow 3 1/2 blocks fr beach
Cute, clean, and cozy place! Hosts were extremely accommodating. The location is close to the beach but tucked away in a not-so-busy neighborhood, so you can walk to destinations while still having a private and quiet location. Would definitely recommend!

Oceanfront Views! 2 BR, 2 BATH!
Our stay was amazing!. Sierra's place was impeccable. The place was spotless, just as advertise in the pictures. I'll be booking again soon.
House rentals with beach access

2 Blocks to Beach, 5 Bed, Deck, Grill, Big Kitchen
We had an amazing time during our stay in Norfolk. So many things to do and see! At the end of each day, it was a huge relief to be able to come back to a private and quiet home! Everything was in perfect order when we arrived and went without any issues with the hosts or the home itself. We are definitely going to visit Norfolk again in the future, and would stay here again without hesitation!

Family Getaway | 1 Block from Beach | Game Room
Brian’s place had everything we needed to make for a relaxing vacation. It was easily walkable to the bay and within 30 mins to all the things we wanted to explore. Loved the layout of the house and the game room ❤️

Home-Sweet-Home
Home was extremely clean and well kept. Extra linens and very comfortable beds! Would definitely stay again!

PETS Welcome! 4Bed Beach View Privately Managed
Matthew’s home was beautiful and comfortable. As a group of 8 we were a little worried about space. But this spot was perfect!! Walkable distance to the beach in a quiet area. And we had plenty of room both inside and out.

Exclusive Beachfront Home w/ 180° Views & Hot Tub!
I could not wait to write a review about our stay. So much so that we are not even home yet. We had a glorious week at Bay Bliss! Bliss is the perfect description. Anywhere in this beautiful home you can hear the waves of the ocean. There was nothing better than listening to that while falling asleep on the comfiest bed in the master bedroom. Hosts were extremely responsive, helpful with local recommendations and extremely friendly. I have stayed at lot of AirBnb’s and hotels. Honestly, I have never felt so at home and I felt that way from the second I walked in the door. We will definitely be back.

The Seaglass Cottage
Nancy was super kind and friendly during our stay! She gave a great seafood restaurant recommendation that was both delicious, affordable, and right down the road. The cottage is quaint and a charming place to stay for a young couple. We had plenty of space, and the cottage was accurately represented by the photos available. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area!

Play by the Bay 1 MIN TO WATER
This spot was everything we needed and more. The hosts are kind and accommodating, really made us feel at home from the jump. The place itself? Even better than the pictures. Clean, cozy, and had that good energy you hope for when you’re staying somewhere new. It honestly felt like a home away from home. Would 100% stay here again without thinking twice. Big thanks to the hosts for making it such a smooth and comfortable experience for my family.

Roomy House in Bayview
It was a nice time staying at Emily 's. Felt at home. Nice clean accommodations. Would definitely recommend. Enjoyed my family and friends. Hope to revisit it soon. Linda B

Beautiful Beachfront Condo
My family and I had a great stay at Pam's condo. Condo had plenty of room for our family of 5 and had great views of the ocean from all rooms. The condo was very close to my favorite 2 VB restaurants (Waterman's and Chix on the Beach), which made it nice. I would recommend the trolley to go to the north side of VB as it's about a 2 mile walk from the condo. Great place though and highly recommend Pam's condo.

Beachside Condo | 2BR/2BA | Cross street to beach!
Clean and Spacious for Four people. Great kitchen Space. But could use a better couch Seating in living room. Bedrooms. And beds were great. Would rent again.

Tropical 2BR Condo Getaway 1 Block from the Beach!
Great place, just as advertised. thanks for everything, Samantha!

Beachfront Getaway, Pet Friendly, Mermaid Suite
What an amazing stay! I've never been satisfied with an Airbnb, the photos always are so much nicer than the reality - but Big Blue was actually even better than advertised! Merlyn's communication prior to arrival made things very easy. Accessing the unit was simple, and I felt safe with the self-locking doors. The unit was clean and so comfortable, with many personal touches - I instantly felt at home. I was overjoyed when I arrived and toured the unit. Really exceeded my expectations which was such a different feeling than all the other Airbnb I've rented over the years. The beach access was tidy and pretty, the gym and beach gear a nice touch, and the foot wash station was appreciated after my morning walks with the dog. I really can't say enough great things about my stay here. Hosts were friendly and helpful every step of the way. We mostly spent our time traveling around the area from VA Beach to OBX so I can't speak much about Norfolk/Ocean View. I would def rent Big Blue again.

Ocean & Bay Views - Local Family Owned & Operated
We had a lovely stay at Crystal’s while in town for a graduation. Crystal was proactive with directions, recommendations, and instructions, and she responded quickly to questions. The place was nicely decorated, and well-stocked with kitchen gadgets, beach chairs, games, and other necessities. This is a nice place for a getaway.

Oceanfront Gem VaB Studio Exceptional Views
This was our second time staying at one of Rebecca and Sean’s VA Beach condos — and the experience did not disappoint! This is just a perfect location, at the very end of the Boardwalk, with a private grassy lawn and outdoor seating just for the condo residents. Lots of restaurants in the surrounding blocks. Our favorite thing is the view — you look right out onto the ocean from the patio, and you can see the beach and the sunrise from the comfortable bed each morning. We spent unhurried hours sitting on the patio in the evenings enjoying the sound of lapping waves and the night sky. This cozy studio was just right for the two of us. Highly recommend. I’ve no doubt we’ll stay there again in the future!

Oceanfront, beach, boardwalk, fun, dolphin, sunris
We enjoyed staying at Kelly's place in VB. Its an ideal location for anyone who wants to stay right at the boardwalk. We witnessed amazing sunrises and moonrises. The ocean was right in front of us and from the 6th floor, the view was expansive. A lot of restaurants were also nearby. Kelly was always very communicative, polite and professional. The apartment was clean with the kitchen well stocked with utensils The bedrooms were of a pretty large size. And parking was on the premises. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and holiday for us. We strongly recommend Kelly's place.

2 bedroom condo with oceanfront one block away!
Great stay, very responsive host. Plenty of extra goodies there (beach gear, baby plates and utensils, high chair, board games). Would highly recommend taking your family to this condo.
