The Most Unique Airbnbs You Can Find In Virginia Beach
If you live in the mid-Atlantic area, then Virginia Beach is a great place to unwind and enjoy a well-deserved break from the daily grind. Home to pristine beaches (including the Guinness Book of World Records' official "World's Longest Pleasure Beach") and a leisurely, slow-paced lifestyle, there's something for everyone in this unique vacation destination (via Beach Life Guard).
Active folks can enjoy brisk runs or relaxed strolls along the Virginia Beach boardwalk, while those looking to really chill out can lounge on one of the many stretches of sand available in this picturesque beach town (via Planet Ware). But after a long day of shopping on Atlantic Avenue, exploring the Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center, and wandering around First Landing State Park, you also need a place to hit the hay.
Thankfully, there are plenty of stylish spots available for all types of travelers, from families to loved-up couples. For those looking for something a bit different, we've compiled a round-up of the most unique Airbnbs available to rent in Virginia Beach.
Relax in this chic romantic getaway for two
While going on an elaborate Eurotrip may seem like the best way to impress your honey, a lot of blood, sweat, and tears can go into planning those kinds of vacations. Looking for a travel hack that will save you time and money? If you can't swing an international excursion, a beach vacation is a great alternative option, and a lot easier to plan. After all, nothing says relaxing and romantic quite like a serene stretch of sand.
If you are traveling as a couple, this chic Airbnb right by the water makes a great choice. This cozy spot is covered from floor to ceiling in crisp whites, warm creams, and rich blues, exuding the colors of the ocean, which is located just three blocks away. With potted plants and scenic landscapes scattered around the house, guests can enjoy the feeling of being outdoors even when they're inside.
Another highlight of this Airbnb? The stunning outdoor patio. Before heading for a day at the beach, guests can sip their morning coffee surrounded by trees. "Our favorite thing about our home is how quiet & peaceful it is overlooking the lake and wildlife," super hosts Star and Austin shared. At approximately $93 a night, this two-story home is a total steal too. As one reviewer noted, "This space couldn't have been more perfect for a weekend getaway!"
Indulge yourself at this special occasion home
Who says you can't have it all? If you are traveling to Virginia Beach and looking for a place to stay, it'll be hard to top the stunning Seaside Sanctuary Oceanfront on Airbnb. This opulent property boasts extravagant chandeliers, extremely high ceilings, beautiful arched windows, and gorgeous gold and white furniture. Not only do guests have access to a private pool and jacuzzi year-round, but the house also sits directly on the beach.
Accommodating up to 12 people, this house would be slightly too large for a party of two but is ideal for families looking for something a bit more high-end. The large space would also be well suited to a bachelor or bachelorette party or even a wedding or wedding reception. While this 5-bedroom expanse might cost a pretty penny at approximately $1,100 a night, consider it'll be more much manageable if you are splitting it 12 ways.
As one previous guest put it simply: "The house is absolutely beautiful! It has everything you need for a relaxing week away at the beach."
Head to Virginia Beach for some family-friendly fun
When the kids are off school, heading to Virginia Beach is a great way to keep the whole family entertained. If you are looking for the perfect accommodation for your stay, this Sandbridge resort on Airbnb should do the job nicely. Accommodating up to 21 guests, this six-bedroom property is oozing with fun. Kids and adults alike can splash around in the private pool, relax in the hot tub, and enjoy various activities in the game room.
With pool, table tennis, air hockey, and foosball all at your fingertips, there's no risk of boredom. An added bonus? It's only a five-minute walk from the beach. "Great house for a family reunion," wrote one reviewer. While this luxury villa, also available on Airbnb, is slightly less spacious, with room for just eight guests, the extravagant exterior more than makes up for it.
When you are not spending time at the beach, there are plenty of charming spots within this four-bedroom home for you to relax and unwind, including a rooftop patio and a cozy sunroom. Not to mention, guests are also graced with beachfront access. One previous guest enthused: "Perfect location, amazing space. Exactly as advertised, maybe even better. The perfect spot for a beach getaway!" Clearly, you can't go wrong with Virginia Beach.
