Amazing week in Sandbridge

Our family and friends have visited Sandbridge, VA during the third week of August during each of the last few years. Calming Waters was perfectly sized for our group, with a beautiful pool and direct access to the channels/bay. It’s located on a secluded street and just a short walk To that beautiful beach.

Family vacay

The house was perfect. My only complaint would be that the pool was not warm. We were only minutes from the beach and it was very private. Would definitely recommend.

Fun in Sandbridge

We had a fun week in Sandbridge The house was a good fit for our family. Love the DR table, it easily fit our group of 12, the kitchen was functional and had the necessities. The pool was perfect after a day at the beach and was kept clean throughout the week. Needs some interior paint and new LR furniture (pretty dirty), but overall a good beach house.

Family Vacatipn

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was great in proximity to the beach. 15-20 min drive to shopping/groceries. 30-40 mins to VB proper. Pool and outside decks were nice. House was not overly clean, it appears as though the cleaning crew did the bare minimum and there’s an abundance of flies. Pool had not been cleaned upon arrival (but pool guy did come later in the evening on check in day). We noted several concerns upon arrival and the maintenance crew arrived on Monday to look at several of them. They were awesome and very helpful. Told us to call them back for any concerns. They even brought us ice since the Ice maker was broken. The grass hadn’t been cut in probably 2 weeks in the yard. The metal staircase to the bedrooms downstairs are not for the faint of heart. They are tight and narrow. This house needs some serious TLC. The outside is in rough shape, there are bugs in all the windows, and the deck and dock could use some updating. All in all we had a really nice time but for the price we paided we expected the house to be cleaner and in better overall shape. I mean it wasn’t the worst place we’ve stayed but it was not super clean or well kept.

Calming Waters

Overall we had a great time staying at Calming Waters! It is a great area and close to the beach. The house is right on the channel coming in from the bay. We brought our paddelboard and used it almost every day. Local neighbor was super nice. The beach was clean and not super busy. There is shopping and restaurants close, and the VA beach boardwalk is within 30 minutes driving distance. The house was not as clean as I was expecting, but it is also the middle of vacation season. The roof was leaky in a couple spots during a really hard rain. I notified the company, which said they will reach out to the owners of the house. 12 people fit very comfortably in the house. The kids and adults loved the pool and recreation area in the basement. The house kept very cool the whole time, which was nice on 90 degree days. All in all it was a fun, relaxing stay. Everyone said they wanted to come back next year!

Good not great

I usually don’t do reviews, but was compelled to for this house. It was good but not great, especially considering the price. The good: - location, back deck( off kitchen) and pool. ( Note: there are no screens on the decks in case you couldn’t discern via photos). The living room, game room, dining room, bathrooms and kitchen sink were clean when we arrived. The not-so-good: - for a house that sleeps 13, there were only 12 forks and 2 ice cube trays ( neither of the ice makers worked). Basic maintenance of the interior was necessary for a better experience ( i.e. fan in upstairs bedroom seemed like it was going to fall while it was running). - The living room furniture is due to be replaced because it’s got a bit of and odor and the cushions are squished. - There were spider webs and dust clumps - Both ovens and kitchens cabinets were dirty - The kitchen window was very dirty/ corroded inside and out and needed to be cleaned. - The deck rug and patio were dirty and had to be swept to get dirt and lots of dog hair off of it. - The doors, railing and walls had chipped paint/ grime on them too. - The dining room ceiling and game room leaked during the rain. Whoever rented after we left, benefited from the cleaning we did. If you are reading this and assume we are just picky, it’s not the case; we rent something every year and know that sometimes we need to clean some things to be more comfortable. This house just really needed more than we’ve ever experienced.

Nice place. Love the porches and dock. The kitchen was very well equipped and so nice we could bring our dog. The pool was fun as well. I would suggest fixing the water pressure in the bathroom sinks and clarifying the correct bed sizes. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Great stay, close to the beach!

We decided to go for a guys trip and the house was fantastic. Nicholette was a great host and very easy to communicate with regarding any issues. Location was perfect with a short walk to the beach. Pool was great and place can accommodate a good size. Game room and decks were perfect for relaxing at the house.

Review of property at Riverbend in Virginia Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Family total was 12. Knowing there were six bedrooms and could sleep at least 12, the refrigerator was way too small to accommodate any decent amount of food, thus requiring extra trips to keep the refrigerator stocked for the necessary meals. The house looked "tired". Furniture in living room was definitely ragged looking, but we were mainly busy and there wasn't enough furniture nor room to house us all at the same time. We didn't have small children so fortunately the fact that the tV was unavailable as there was either no remote or the remote had no batteries. It met our needs as the pool and the beach and other recreational activities kept us busy. I did not care for the "threat" that if there was any food or mess left behind that we would be billed additional charges. The house wasn't all that "sparkling" to begin with. Have been with my agent for over 20 years and will let her know that Ocean Sands was acceptable but really should be avoided with any of her future clients. A picnic table to have our meals was also tacky.
