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 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!

Great location. Clean & Pleasant
The cottage was quite nice. Very clean and very comfortable. Location was fantastic ... 2-3 block walk to the beach. Only comment is that previous guests must have had a pet as there was a bit of a dog-smell. Otherwise, it was great!

Short, but Amazing Stay
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!

Very nice.
Great location, very clean, quiet area, but close enough to any activity. All useable clean appliances etc. Only complaint was the lack of window screens. We couldn’t keep any windows or doors open for air without getting a few flies.

Not at all what we wanted
Property manager contacted me by email 2 days before check-in and said we had to move properties or they were going to cancel our reservation. Offered us an “upgrade” to a townhome with stairs that we can’t do well with ( group is disabled ) even after being informed that we couldn’t do stairs. We were told we had two choices 1. Take the new property or 2. Have no reservation with less than 24 hours before arrival. We chose to take the “upgrade” property hoping for the best. We arrived to the most horrifying parking situation I have ever encountered. Townhouse has a garage so small neither vehicle would fit and no other assigned parking. Every other unit has 2 assigned spaces except the 410 rental units. Chairs on both porches were so filthy you couldn’t sit outside to enjoy the nice cool breeze. Then upon deciding to go to bed I turned back my blanket and found it to be covered in muddy dog prints. Contacted the property manager and sent a photo. I was told that housekeeping found the blanket OUTSIDE but it was washed and dried. And that they trusted the housekeeper over a photo I sent. Of course there were no other blankets in the house to use so all I had was a sheet to sleep under. Also at night you will need earplugs due to traffic noises, sirens, and people in the other units outside partying. Besides those issues the location is good. If you don’t mind dirt, loud noises, and drive a vehicle the size of a golf cart this might be for you!
