North End Beach Cottage Apt - One Block from Beach
Ritamarie’s place was super cute!! I had such a wonderful stay. The place was clean and inviting just like the pictures suggested. The walk to the beach was quick, easy, and BEAUTIFUL. This place was perfect for my first solo trip, as the neighborhood felt safe and I really got to feel like a local! The secluded beach was exactly what I was looking for, far away from the touristy attractions. I would definitely suggest this place for anyone looking for a nice quiet getaway. Definitely would stay again.

Sojourn Guest House: Buckroe Beach Suite B
The apartment is cute and very modern. Everything was clean. The neighbors were friendly. The video was a novel idea for check-in.

2 Bdrm Condo 1 block from VB Oceanfront
The rental unit far exceeded our expectations! First and most important was how clean everything is. Shawna really caters to her renters by taking the time to have items on hand in case you forget to bring them. My only issue was that there was only one parking spot for the rental unit. I realize that this is out of Shawna’s control. Otherwise this was a perfect trip with a great place to stay—planning to come back!

Comfy 3 Bedroom Hideaway Minutes From H.U. & Beach
We visited family in the area so finding it wasn’t hard. We had an amazing visit the kids loved the place the neighbors were very friendly. We had a lot of fun and felt right at home Peter was very nice and accommodating with our extended check out which was a big help and also gave us great recommendations on places to visit. We do place to stay again in the future.

LiveEOV: Beachcomber Two
We loved the location. Very short walk to the beach, and short drives to restaurants, grocery stores and shops. The bed I slept in was super comfortable and the living room furniture was also comfortable for reading or watching TV. The kitchen was well equipped. The keypad entry was really convenient and easy to operate. We really enjoyed our weekend stay.

Sandbridge Beach Bay Getaway
We loved our beach getaway because of our accommodation, it was private and peaceful and had everything we needed! Very clean and furniture done in great taste! We spent a whole week and we didn't want to leave. We especially loved the deck with all the beautiful plants and that we could hear the ocean especially at night! A big plus! We are definitely going back! Jules and Scott, the hosts were so welcoming and kind to us and always helpful. The short walk to the beach was beautiful and so easy! What a gem this place is! We highly recommend! Eric & Vivian

The Rosalie Suite 2, Steps from Norfolks Hospitals
It was perfect for my brief stay and will be ideal for a return trip for a longer stay.

Entire Apartment - No Cleaning Fees!
This was my first time booking an airbnb and it won't be the last. Need I say Jamey set the standard pretty high. Jamey was a great host! You get more than what you pay for. The airbnb was clean, well decorated, and ultimately peaceful. Jamey was responsive and made sure everything was cool. The location felt safe and cozy. I would highly recommend this airbnb for a comfortable stay.

English Basement Hide-Away
This basement getaway was absolutely beautiful! We were able to walk all of downtown Portsmouth that included multiple little shops, a few museums (including the children’s museum), a playground just around the corner, the river walk, beautiful water sites of the naval ships and a couple of little local vendors and a small car show. This little town was very welcoming and cute!

Romantic Coastal Retreat w/ Private Balcony
Perfect location- we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to eat and the beach is also just a few blocks away! The space was beautifully decorated and we loved enjoying our coffee and breakfast out on the deck in the mornings.

Beach Oasis- Apartment steps from the sand!
The stay was wonderfull, the unit was just like the picture and the beach was right at my finger tips even got to see dolphins right at the beach.

Georgie's Brick Air BNB
My children and I really enjoyed your space. We were surprised with all of the accommodations that was included in our stay, and made it easy for my babies to pair up and bond with each other. We were truly comfortable and it felt as if we were in our own home. Coming to the area so we could welcoming in our new addition to our family was worth it.. Thanks again for renting your unit to me I most definitely will be back in about two too four Weeks if you would have me.

Beauty and the Beach
Super cozy peaceful place. I loved to have everything needed in the unit, felt like home. Beautiful garden and the area felt safe.

Poseidon - 120 Year Old Beach Cottage with Sauna
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!

Sunset Retreat
Great location. Beautiful park next door and beach. We felt safe. Jose Tequila’s has good drinks. Aimee is responsive as a host. The place can get loud at night - we were awakened by people dragging furniture at 3am upstairs and kids yelling in the hallway. The place smelled like smoke that comes in through the pipes under the kitchen sink. Great views and nice kitchen. Well stocked. Aimee left a complimentary bottle of wine.

Bayside condo on the beach in Sandbridge
We had a wonderful getaway for my wife’s first Mother’s Day at Sandbridge with our 3 month old. Eddi was accommodating and flexible with our check-in, providing clear instructions that made it easy. The condo was clean and had a great bay view. The kitchen was well-stocked for a comfortable stay. Eddi has made the condo feel so homey we were perfectly fine hanging out in the condo and enjoying the view. The location was quiet, and Jose Tequila restaurant was nearby. We also tried Margie’s Crabhouse nearby. We’re more than pleased and hope to return!

Williamsburg King's Creek Plantation 1BR, 1BA Unit
We used this space while our home was being worked on, do it was more of a “staycation” and did not use all of the amenities. The space was clean and newly renovated, so we were pleased with how nice things were. I highly recommend it for people visiting the Williamsburg area. Great location to Busch Gardens, W&M, etc. The only negative is that it is a time share, and they don’t take no for an answer.

Cape Henry Full Suite Inn at Old Beach
Very responsive and accommodating! The patio was so peaceful!

Beach Quarters Resort - The Presidential Suite 2
We really enjoyed our stay! The accommodations were perfect for our family of 5. Gorgeous views. The staff were very helpful and responsive.
