Fantastic home, easy beach access (stairs), clean home, & all as described. Got to meet Tom which was awesome & he was attentive without being intrusive as he lives close by! Cannot wait to come back!! Only negative is the tricky lock on the back door.

Our family had a wonderful week exploring the Tidewater area at the Beach Bungalow! I need to express our gratitude for making it clear in the listing that this is truly a pet free/hypoallergenic home. One of our sons has autism along with severe dog and cat allergies so we always look for this. Sometimes owners bring their own pets but don’t allow renters to and he gets sick even though the property is listed pet free. It was wonderful having the beach right out our back door and the location made it convenient for us to go the sites on the Eastern Shore as well as the peninsula. Tom was also a friendly and responsive host. We 100% recommend this home!

We needed to do a quick check in with Tom, our host, as a few things needed tweaking! He was right on top of everything! We definitely appreciate Tom and his support as a host. As always, we loved our stay! Sun & fun on the Bay and my “happy place” right on the water. We had an excellent stay and enjoyed many of the local restaurants and events right on the Bay. Family time with my siblings & parents was an additional plus! The Bungalow meets our needs and is inviting and welcoming. There is a hot tub available, but in three years, we have yet to use it with all of the other activities we would rather do in the Bay. Dolphin sightings again this year! Much needed relaxing time on the beach. Sea shell collecting, etc! etc! Thanks for being such a great host Tom! We hope to be back next summer.

We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation at the Beach Bungalow. Everything was perfect and easy. No complaints at all. Having a place that was right on the beach was amazing. The views from the deck were so beautiful. Great location with so many restaurants close by. You can’t go wrong. Have to see it to believe it.

Very cozy and comfortable property with privacy. Convenient location, with incredible views. A great place to spend time with family and not be in the middle of typical beach towns. Bay side, so waves were small and kids can have a lot of fun in the sand and sun. We would definitely book here again in the future.

The house was clean and welcoming. The location was perfect for a quiet and relaxing beach vacation. There were not a lot of people on the beach and you felt like you had it all to yourself. Tom was extremely helpful and was quick to respond when there were any questions. I would stay here again if I ever come back to the area.

Great Location for Family Spring Vacation

The house is a perfect location for a family vacation. The beach is right there and the grocery store is just down the street. For rainy or cool days, the house is 30 minutes or less from museums.

The most relaxing week!

We had a wonderful time at the beach bungalow! The highlight was the beach, it was lovely and calm most days but we did get a couple days with great waves! We spent most of our week relaxing on the beach and in the water. Tom was a great host and very quick to respond when we had a question. We couldn’t have ask for a better place to relax with our kiddos.

We absolutely enjoyed our vacation at the Bungalow! This is our second year and will plan another. Our host is wonderful. Checks in and replies to concerns. He made a few upgrades from last year and we definitely noticed them! This area of the Bay was my childhood vacation spot. It’s always a pleasure to stay in the area, would love to retire in VA.
