Family friendly beach house. Pool, hot tub, walk to beach. Dog friendly, fenced


THIS PROPERTY IS A FRIDAY TO FRIDAY RENTAL IN SUMMER MONTHS. This is a beautiful home perfect for multiple families wanting to experience the beach and have a pool and hot tub option. This home features a stocked kitchen w/ plenty of space for entertaining. Great Escape is an excellent choice for your family vacation, reunion, or corporate getaway. Great Escape has 6 bedrooms 4 baths w/ a bonus room (futon). This home sleeps 18. New for summer 2024, 3 beach cruisers.

We love to host families, wedding groups, girls/guys trips, team building, athletic leagues, and more. It's the perfect vacation home for people who love the beauty of the beach and the convenience of the canal/bay access. It's a treasure that will call you back year after year. Located in the quiet community of Sandbridge, Virginia Beach. This stunning gem has all of the amenities you could wish for in a vacation home and is a short 1 1/2 blocks from the ocean!

Perfect for boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing or enjoying a cup of coffee or glass of wine while enjoying the beautiful sunrise or sunset.

This is one of few properties that do Friday- Friday stays during the summer months (June-August). Finding that checking in on these days allows families to enjoy a full first weekend at the beach. Instead of being stuck in long lines of traffic on check in days (Saturday afternoons are extremely hectic for check in/out, service companies doing cleanings, repairs, lawn maintenance, and pool services)

The first floor offers a large recreation room with a pool table and lounge area with cable television. This is the perfect area to relax and unwind after a day at the beach. Open the sliding glass doors to a covered patio overlooking your private pool and boat deck. There are also 3 bedrooms (1 queen with a private bath), 2 other bedrooms off of the recreation room. The first floor also offers a laundry room with 2 washers and dryers for your personal use.
The second floor has wide open spaces and beautiful natural light that makes it bright and airy. The living room has a 60" television, comfortable seating for everyone. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you should need to prepare meals. The custom dinning room table offers plenty of seating for meals, games or just catching up. Outside the deck overlooks the pool and waterway. It's the perfect place to grill your lunch or dinner. The private crows nest on the top of the house offers beautiful views of the ocean and the bay.
This is an all-inclusive property rental that includes everything you need to make your vacation experience a success. All linens and towels are included so that all you need to do is show up with flip flops and a smile on your face.

We had a nice stay; it was a great property. The walk to the beach was short. The pool and hot tub were nice. It was cool to be able to fish and kayak right out back. We did not have any issues and would stay again.

Family Christmas

We needed a place for the whole family. This place was big enough for us to spread out. The kitchen was big enough that we didn't bump into each other and the big table held all of us easily. I would highly recommend this place especially in the summer when you can enjoy the swimming pool and the kayaks.
