Very Important: Please ensure you ask about bringing your four-legged family member, we require a pet fee of $100. We also require all pets to receive their flea and tick medication regularly and crates are preferred when you are out and about. Please keep heavily shedding pups off the furniture. All of these requests really help the owners feel more comfortable opening their homes to your furry loved ones as well as aiding in housekeeping practices. The backyard is not fully enclosed for animals to be let loose off leash. Please be respectful of the shared space in the back and keep pets on a leash at all times.

This South End Vibe District beach bungalow is located on 18th Street in what has been coined by locals as the arts and culture district. Located just three walking blocks from the beach and boardwalk, this house is in the heart of all the activity Virginia Beach has to offer. The home is central to stores, restaurants, shopping, coffee shops, farmers markets, gyms and is also walking distance to the Convention Center and the new Sports Center.

This first floor, fully furnished cottage features two bedrooms and one full bathroom. The house sleeps four guests comfortably (no more than four people allowed at any given time according to city mandates) in a queen bedroom and a bedroom with two twin sized beds. The two bedrooms share a hallway bathroom equipped with a shower/bathtub combination. Complimentary shampoos and shower essentials are provided, along with a hair dryer for your convenience.

When you enter the home, you will walk into the cozy living room, furnished with a comfortable couch situated in front of a large television for your entertainment. The smart TV is also equipped with cable. There is Free WIFI throughout the cottage to keep you connected.

The kitchen overlooks the living area, perfect for cooking and catching up with one another. There is a kitchen bar area with four stools for seated dining. The kitchen area conveniently features the washer and dryer, a cooktop, toaster oven, microwave, and a dishwasher. It also comes fully-equipped with cookware, china and glassware for four people.

There is a large shaded back deck with a picnic table which allows for additional dining for your group of four to enjoy. This is a shared space with the upstairs unit, 508B. The property has private parking for two vehicles directly out front.

We provide bed linens, four towel sets and a starter pack of toilet paper, trash bags and paper towels. Guests are responsible for replenishing their supplies as needed.

About The Area
To make your taste buds sing, stop by one of the many ViBe Neighborhood restaurants on our block. Java Surf, Commune, Stockpot, Crocs, Prosperity Kitchen, Baby Izakaya, Beach Bully BBQ, Barrel 17, Hearth and Esoteric are some favorites. Housed in a 1920s-era building on the Virginia Beach Historical Registry, Esoteric is serving up European-influenced fare using local ingredients, many of them sourced from its on-site garden, which it shares with Commune and Roost Flowers. The outdoor seating is draped in string lights and overlooks the garden. How's that for knowing where your food came from?

While you can find all manners of artwork within the quaint shops and 7 different coffeehouses that comprise the area, the ViBe District is a work of art in and of itself. Look around and enjoy the bright murals throughout the neighborhood, most of which were done by local artists, located on most of the local businesses in the area. Take the ViBe Mural Walking Tour, an easy, one-mile walking tour, to capture shots for an unbeatable photo op.

In addition to great food and works of art, this neighborhood is also one of our favorite spots for shopping that is uniquely Virginia Beach. For custom, hand-painted signs and pin-striping, check out Igor's Custom, a local favorite, whose work is found all around town. His designs are done the old-school way, so you won't find any computers in his studio. Located next door to Igor's, in a strip of quaint studios and coffee shops known as The Alley, North End Bag Company features handmade leather bags, using a variety of multi-era vintage sewing machines. From when the design is sketched to when the sewing machine whirs to a stop, no detail is overlooked in building these timeless and sturdy bags.

Local artists, crafters, leather smiths, sign painters, coffee masters, culinary arts, distilled spirits, surf and skate culture, fashion and accessories, beauty and lifestyle brands, health and fitness, farmer's markets, live music, performing arts and more… Find it all in our neighborhood—The ViBe Creative District nestled within just three walking blocks from the oceanfront.

Some Important Points:

If you have booked a stay longer than 2 weeks, you will be responsible for providing your own bed sheets and bath towels as our linen rental company cannot cover this duration of time. For all short term rentals, we will provide your bed sheets and bath towels.

Please pay the pet fee if you are traveling with your four-legged family members. The fee is $100.

Beach equipment and bikes are not included but we do offer concierge rentals. These rentals will be delivered to the house and picked up upon departure. We also offer baby equipment rentals if you don't want to haul the crib/pack n play, stroller, etc.

NO early check-in or late check-out during peak summer season (May through September)

Perfect location! We loved being walking distance to so many great coffee shops and the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay, and the house was the perfect place for our family - including our infant daughter.

Cute place in an active social neighborhood

The ease of booking was great and the owner responded quickly to questions before I decided to book it. The cottage is located in the heart of the active art district with options for those interested in the late night social atmosphere. Easy walking distance to the beach and shops. The bedrooms worked well for our family of four and everything we needed was provided in the kitchen for simple meals. I recommend if you are staying over the weekend and are a light sleeper to consider bringing ear plugs as there is a bar in the backyard that stays open until 2am with loud music and people having a great time.The cottage was great for a short weekend stay.

Had everything we needed!

Cute and comfortable. Had everything we needed for our week long stay. Highly recommend. A couple of blocks from the beach; however, there is construction going on about 2 blocks up the street which has closed off the street so you have to go around (making it a little longer of a walk but not bad).

Good house, problem location

The house itself is excellent - just the size I needed and well looked-after. I absolutely LOVED the back deck area. Really relaxing. I did flip the breaker on the stove just by trying to boil water while heating something in the oven. That needs to be looked at. There is so much construction in the neighborhood, it turns a 3-block walk to the boardwalk into a 5-block walk. I'd wait until the construction on 18th-19th streets is done before renting again.

Wonderful Family Vacation

We had a wonderful first time vacation in Virginia Beach. The location of this home is perfect and the walk/ride/drive to the beach is just a few blocks away. This home is centrally located to some fabulous restaurants, ice cream shops, and micro breweries (one is literally out your front door and across the street which we took full advantage of). The home has a lovely back deck area but it was too hot and humid for us to enjoy as much as we may have liked. The updates to the property are very nice and the washer/dryer was a huge plus for us. I highly suggest renting some beach cruiser bikes or brining your own along with a boogie board.

Perfect little beach cottage

This house was the perfect place for my family of 4! Our walk to the beach was only about 6 minutes. (I recommend renting a beach cart- they drop it off and pick it up and you don’t have to carry anything on your walk!). Quiet neighborhood with a little brewery right across the street (not a noisy place, very respectful patrons and friendly staff). House had plenty of space for each of us to unwind after a long day at the beach. Beds were comfy and we had everything we needed. (Having a washer/dryer was a huge plus). House was beautiful and clean and we enjoyed sitting out back in the evening as well. Only heard the upstairs neighbors once all week. Communication with the proper manager was easy and they were very responsive. Highly recommend!

Great Location

Overall, the stay was great. We did have to park behind the house and walk around the house to enter. Street construction is taking place in front of the house. 18th Street is closed to traffic for several blocks, so this is major construction that started a while ago and is not close to being completed. We totally understand the owner has no control of this situation, but it would have been nice to know more than the day before. I would still recommend staying here.

Perfect Location for a Great Family Getaway:)

We chose this property due to its central location that allowed us to enjoy the oceanfront within a 5 minute walk and the VIBE Arts district just steps from the front (or back) door. Location was also a short drive to the Virginia Aquarium, First Landing State Park, & Back Bay Nat'l Wildlife refuge. Our family of 3 stayed 4 nights. Loved exploring the eateries, shops, and art of the VIBE district by foot...not to mention the brewery across the street! Loved walking to oceanfront for early AM beach walks w/our dog a few blocks away. Brought our bikes for amazing rides the length of the oceanfront bike path every day, down to Rudee's Inlet for dolphin watching! There was so much we were able to do/see by foot or by bike, not needing the car most days. It wasn't quite beach weather when we were there so it was great to have a lot of other things to do; but if warmer, the beach would have been easy to access too! The newly renovated 1st Floor Cottage house was very clean and decorated nicely. Beds were comfortable as was the living rm couch. Outside area was a plus. Washer/dryer in the unit meant coming home with clean laundry which was nice. Only negatives were: 1-Unable to connect to Wifi; despite a lot of communication w/property mgmt, it was not resolved during our stay (which inconvenienced our 19 yr old most!) 2-There was (& still might be) major construction/road work on streets b/t the cottage and oceanfront, hopefully done soon/by summer! Thanks for a great getaway!

What a fabulous weekend in this cottage! This home was in the perfect location. My son needed to be at the sports complex for an indoor track competition and it was super close; we could walk! We were also close to the beach and boardwalk. Also, there were multiple coffee shops near which was an added bonus. The owners were very easy to get in touch with and lovely to communicate with during our stay as well. This home was cutely decorated and perfect for my family of four. I would most definitely stay again!
