1 BLOCK TO BEACH, Delightful & Spacious, 3 BR/3.5BA Virginia Beach Vacation

My family and I enjoyed our stay here. The home is one block from the beach and just a 10min drive from VA Beach! The home was clean when we checked in and Margie was great to deal with!

Pros: Margie Chapman, the property manager is very responsive and helpful, really good to have her available when you text or call. Great to have four bathrooms. Air conditioning works very well and has a thermostat for the top and first floor. The location with easy access to the beach in both directions is great. The view from the living room, dining room and kitchen help overcome the negatives I am about to list. Cons: When I approached the front entrance door the day we arrived I noticed it was quite dirty and in need of attention. Upon opening the door I immediately noticed the carpeting worn and stained and the walls were scuffed and smudged. This property needs a refresh of the paint and carpeting. Later we found out some of the mattresses need replacing too. There are marks all over the walls from furniture and hands sliding along the walls in the stairwell. The carpet has stains everywhere between the dining room, kitchen, and living room. When you walk past the lampshades in the master bedroom you can tell a smoker has been there. I have rented multiple houses at Croatan beach over the years and this was not the best. I am surprised that Berkshire Hathaway accepts this house in this condition.

We had an incredible stay at this beach house and unanimously rated it 5 out of 5 stars! The location truly couldn’t be beat—just a short walk to a beautiful, clean, and quiet beach that felt like our own little slice of paradise. The house is also in a fantastic neighborhood—peaceful and family-friendly, yet close enough to enjoy the boardwalk and aquarium without any hassle.The layout of the home worked perfectly for our group. We loved having all the common areas on the top floor—it made it easy for the adults to cook, relax, and enjoy each other’s company while the kids slept comfortably on a separate level. The outdoor shower was a great bonus after beach days!While the house is a bit dated and has some worn-in furnishings, we actually found that to be a plus with our group of young kids—it made the space feel more comfortable and relaxed, rather than like we were staying in a museum.Margie, the property manager, was absolutely wonderful. She was very responsive and helpful from the start. When we brought one small concern to her attention, she communicated clearly and followed up the very next day to make sure it had been taken care of. Her professionalism and care made a great stay even better.Check-in and check-out were smooth and easy, and the entire experience was stress-free from beginning to end. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway!

The House was in a quiet, very clean neighborhood, 1 block from the beach. The mattresses on the queen sized bed and twin beds need to be replaced. The rugs were stained and the one in the basement bedroom looked like there had been a leak. The kitchen was nice and well-stocked. If you have seniors in your group, you may want to reconsider. There are 2 flights of 14 steps each and the toilets are very low. The house was in a very convenient location to restaurants, beach and stores.
