The house was okay, but it was in terrible condition. Most everything was damaged to some extent. The AC on the 4th floor did not work and the room heated to 78 degrees during the heat of the day even though the AC was set on 68. And the windows were taped shut! The table on the deck was a rusted mess. The code we were given for the lock box was incorrect. The hot water did not work until it was repaired on day 2 of our stay. This property was well below the standards we expect for properties listed on VRBO.

It’s a great location, and right on the beach. Close to everything, and the neighborhood is beautiful. I loved the fully fenced yard for my dogs. I also loved that everyone got their own bedrooms. Property is dated and not very well maintained, or what I would call comfortable, or accommodating, but we spent most of my time at the beach anyway, so it worked out fine. Overall a good stay.

Perfect Location, Great Stay!

Wonderful location with uncrowded beach! House is large enough to meet the needs of multiple families with plenty of space to hang out too! Host responds quickly to solve problems. Many parts of the house are beautiful and others need some cosmetic updates, but it was perfect for us!

Beautiful location, house comfortable but needs TLC

We loved being able to access the beach so easily. There are windows and deck seating that need to be replaced, and we were surprised that we had to rent our own linens, but our siblings and families enjoyed the open layout and functional kitchen.

We had plenty of space for our family, and Lori was quick to respond when the internet went out. (It came back.) The house is on the market so I assume some updates to the kitchen cabinets may be coming soon, but everything worked fine. Great view and beach access. Very relaxing, and my husband especially appreciated the elevator.

Croatan Beach

My family came down to Virginia Beach with me and we couldn’t ask for a better location. The beach is not crowded and we have our “own”lifeguard. We were just steps from the ocean. I could see the sunrise from my bedroom window. The elevator was a bonus being able to transport food and luggage. The house was roomy and we were all able to have our space. Commutation with our host was easy and quick.

Family beach weem

The beach location is absolutely perfect. The house had some cosmetic problems that should be addressed but dont detrack from the property experience (drawer pulls needing replacement, ceilings needing patchwork, etc). One bedroom sprung a leak during the storm, but Lori was very responsive when contacted about it. Overall a great week at the beach.

We arrived at the property, and the elevator in the home did not work - a key reason we chose this property. The owner did offer us a neighboring property, with a working elevator - which we took. This after saying - "you hadn't chatted to note you had folks w limited movement"...my fault for not chatting?Both properties were very quirky, needed updating and work. If two showers were going, one went cold - same if dishwasher was running. Second property had no TV options - no cable, no streaming. That said - the deck was fabulous, and weather awesome, so we really enjoyed that. Kitchen also well appointed, with nice dining area.

Water leak on Queen bed made it unusable. In description should mention does not come with linens prior to contract. Property old with safety issue of hand rails almost causing a significant fall in. 70 yo. All issues were immediately addressed and rectified. Lori was a great host. Beautiful views and overall relaxing stay with family.

This house was perfect for our family vacation. The location was perfect- right on the beach and close to the restaurants near the oceanfront area. We had an issue with the wifi at first, but Lori was very responsive. We would definitely book this house again!
