Excellent stay in a home away from home

Great location

Great location and access to the beach...we preferred this quieter stretch of beach to the boardwalk area. It was nice to have beach supplies (chairs, umbrellas, etc.) to use as well as the outdoor shower. Wifi worked well.

Time with family

We booked an emergency Vrbo for our family to deal with the death of my mother. I can't stress enough how incredible it was to have a clean, comfortable, and beautiful place so close to the beach to lay our heads. Grateful to Enit for his accommodations.

Great Stay!

The house was perfect and was as advertised. Croatan Beach is a very nice community and the beach was not crowded. The owners did a nice job of staying in contact throughout the process. I recommend the rental for others looking for a short walk to a semi private beach.

Perfect location at Croatan Beach

This house is super close to the beach! This is our second year renting the house and everyone enjoyed their vacation. Appreciate having all the necessary kitchen equipment, beach chairs, beach buggies, and plenty of parking for our 2 cars. Enit gives clear directions and was always available if needed.

The perfect balance in Virginia Beach

Sea Dream Croatan was the perfect place for us! It's close enough to enjoy the Virginia Beach boardwalk, shops, and restaurants, but also super quiet to return to after a busy day. Croatan Beach was clean and not crowded at all. Most pet friendly beach houses have the smell of pets, BUT not this one. The beach was an easy walk. I will recommend that if you drive a vehicle that is low to the ground you may want to use the street parking as the driveway is steep. Enit was an excellent hostess, very helpful and responsive. We will be looking for an opportunity to stay here again!

Fantastic House and Location

This house is wonderful, and in a great location very close to the beach. This area across the other side of Rudee inlet from the boardwalk is all residential so the beach does not get crowded. It is close enough to the boardwalk to enjoy the attractions but is very calm and tranquil. The house has great balconies with views of the sea and lots of beach furniture and bicycles to borrow. I would rent this property again.

Family fun in Virginia Beach

This was a wonderful place for our family vacation at Virginia Beach! The layout of the home worked great to give everyone some space, yet room to gather for meals and movies. It was great to have such a well equipped kitchen, including high-end pots and pans. We loved the comfy sectional in the living room with the fireplace and big TV ready to go. The beach was so close, and very secluded, allowing us lots of elbow room when we spent time by the surf. We would definitely plan to return!

Awesome house!

From the very start, Enit was incredibly friendly, informative and on top of things. The house was super clean when we arrived and was stocked with everything we would need just like at home. Very spacious and comfortable—beach supplies too! The short walk to the beach access was easy, too. We would definitely love to return in the future! Thank you Enit!!

Great house, but a lot of jet noise.

The home was great with very positive experience from owners. Some minor issues such as light bulbs out. Great neighborhood. With Oceana Naval Air Station nearby nearly constant jet noise from around 8:00 am to around midnight. Overall a positive experience.

Family had a blast!

Our first big family vacation was an absolute delight! The home was spacious and the fully stocked kitchen (dishes, pots, pans, serving bowls, etc) and game closet really made traveling with kids easy! Enit was very gracious, kind and helpful. She answered all of my questions in a timely manner! We will definitely be staying again! The house is a block away from the beach and for the price, you're getting a deal! Not that far from downtown beach area if you're interested in going by bike or car. Beautiful home, excellent location, great interaction with owner = best vacation ever!

Family Vacation

Enit’s place was perfect for a vacation for our family. Lots of space for my husband, infant, in-laws, and dog to stay. My infant still wakes up overnight, especially on vacation, and it brought us peace of mind to be on the first floor in a room next to his and two floors away from where my in-laws stayed so that we didn’t have to worry about him waking anyone up. Lots of room to relax on the second floor and on the decks. We made food on the grill 3 nights which worked out great. Very quiet neighborhood, quick walk to the beach and beach is not heavily populated. Enit was very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

Better than I could have imagined!

My husband, myself, son, daughter in law and our dogs just returned from this property and we thoroughly enjoyed it! The house is a very short walk to the beach ( we are from New Jersey and we are used to walking a mile from the car to the beach!) The house has everything you could need to make a great vacation. The kitchen is well stocked and there is plenty of sleeping space for many people. The common area is great and the decks are a great place to hang out and relax. We will be back! Thank you Enit!

Great time in Virginia Beach!

My husband and I stayed at Enit's wonderful home in Virginia Beach for a week. The location of the house is perfect and the neighborhood is lovely. There are plenty of beds and baths for a larger group. Although it was too cool to beach it, there are bikes and other beach toys in the garage that look like they would be great for the summer. There are TVs in the downstairs family room and the main upstairs living room. Netflix in the great room was wonderful on the cooler spring nights. Enit was wonderful to work with and very responsive to our requests. We will definitely go back! Thanks for the much needed rest!

Everything We Needed

In between homes with just our suitcases, this home had everything we needed for a six week stay. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the pots, pans, and small appliances you'd want to cook your own meals. We especially liked the waffle maker. It was just two of us and our cat, but there are enough beds for a large family reunion. The entire home is very spacious with two large decks. A fireplace in the living room gave our February movie nights a cozy setting. As for location, its proximity to the ocean made for some great runs and walks along the water and in the neighborhood. The owner is friendly and quick to answer any questions. She made our check-in, stay, and check-out all very easy. Highly recommend!

First time in Virginia Beach

Beautiful and roomy property. The extra bunks in two of the rooms allow for configurations for specific family needs. There are two big tables in the living room as well for a big dinner gathering or just family games, etc. This would be a great location for a multi-generational family gathering as well due to the extra living room/bathroom/counter at the entry level connected to the two entry level bedrooms. Our kids (11 and 14) love to boogie board and the waves were just right for them. The check-in was seamless. Enit returned every inquiry and communication within hours and checked up on us the first day to make sure we arrived safely. She even sends polite and gentle reminders for trash pick-up, etc. We had a blast! Thank you!!

Why they chose this property

This property is perfectly located in Croatan, a wonderful neighborhood just south of the Virginia Beach Boardwalk and the hustle and bustle of the resort area. It is so close to it (0.9 mile) you can actually jog to it (our favorite activity during early hours of most summer days), or bike there. Croatan is an oceanfront and direct ocean access residential neighborhood with a wonderful and caring community. The beach is only 5 min walk. There are some limited views of the Ocean from the third floor of the house and decks.

What makes this property unique

It is in the best location in Croatan; Very limited street parking guarantees your quiet vacation in a neighborhood with limited traffic and very quiet, not crowded beach.The beach we access through Twilight lane is exclusively for swimming, (enforced by lifeguards who ticket surfers, if any) hence very safe for small children. If you would like to surf with a surfing board, there are dedicated and exclusive surfing areas at the northern and southern most parts of the beach.. Very close to the boardwalk but still super quiet. Fully furnished with all amenities, board games.
