Upstairs 1BR Beach Apartment in the Heart of the Vibe District - 5 Minute Stroll to Beach (508B)

PETS ALLOWED FOR A FEE // MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENTS TO BOOK // FREE WIFI // PRIVATE PARKING // LINENS AND TOWELS

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 charming upstairs one bedroom apartment 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 upstairs unit 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 one bedroom rental is located upstairs above another one of our rentals (a two bedroom, one bath rental), sleeps 2-4 people comfortably and is set back on a quiet street. Lounge with a book or get some fresh air while enjoying the 360 degree views of the ViBe District from the private second floor deck. This beach bungalow features a large private bedroom with a queen sized bed and a full bathroom with a standing shower. Complimentary shampoos and shower essentials are provided, along with a hair dryer for your convenience.

The living area has a large couch, a smart TV for streaming and basic cable. There is also Free WiFi throughout the home. You will have access to a kitchen with a small dining area, a toaster, a dishwasher, a microwave, a washer and dryer, and cookware and china for your needs. There is a small dining table for four, as well. You can also take your meals out back and enjoy on the wrap around deck, accesible from the living room, for lots of outdoor space. This spot is the perfect beach getaway for a couple looking to enjoy a comfortable home away from home while exploring the hustle and bustle of the Virginia Beach Oceanfront.

We provide bed linens, two 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 with some disturbing cleanliness issues
The location and neighborhood for this location were perfect for our stay and we loved the convenience. However, we found dark mold in the air conditioning units upon arrival. We contacted the managers and they said they’d send someone to clean it, but they never did. We also found numerous cockroach-like insects through the property indoors. Great for location, not so great for cleanliness.

Lambert reservation
We enjoyed staying at this property very much. We were there mostly for work as we had a food show at the convention center but did get to enjoy the beach and the great restaurants nearby. Had one issue with the electric as I blew a fuse in the bathroom that the maintenance person, I believe name was Pat, was very helpful to help us get the breaker reset. So with that said there was some electrical issues that might need addressed and there were quite a few of the outlets that did not work. And the only other thing that we recommend to might udgrade is the couch. It was not very comfortable..LOL. But overall the house was rented at a great price and we enjoyed ourselves. Thank you.

Checked Out Early
While the location is very walkable and desirable, the home was not comfortable. The bed and couch were very hard, and made it difficult to relax. The kitchen and bathroom showed a lot of wear. The walls do not go all the way up to the ceiling, so anything happening in the bedroom can be heard in the bathroom, and vice versa. What ultimately made us leave on Wednesday, and check into a hotel (incurring an expense we were not expecting) was the crime in the area. Sunday into Monday there was a robbery on a street 2 streets over. Monday into Tuesday there was a wanted individual barricaded in the apartments right across the road. I walked the dog outside into an active police situation with no warning. Why were we not contacted by the property owner regarding this situation?? We were very disappointed, as the Vibe District was where we wanted to stay, and was fantastic.

Adorable comfortable home
This property met our every need. We were totally comfortable within a few hours of arriving. Two minor problems were immediately fixed by the property managers within a short time of us notifying them. We used the house as a home base and day tripped all over the Virginia coast. Lots of restaurants within walking distance and grocery stores within 5 minutes driving. Despite being near the boardwalk with a brewery across the street, the home was quiet and peaceful. Thanks to the owners for sharing!

Family getaway
Was a great little place for my daughter and I to get away and enjoy the beach. The vibe area is great. Very safe! Short walk to the beach and shops are all around you. Alot of local businesses. The place was nicer than the pictures and everything we needed was there. I will stay again!
