Virginia Beach has long shed its bawdy repute of being ‘Redneck Riviera’. Today, the 'Resort City’ is home to the 'longest pleasure beach in the world’ and lovely nature sites, and parks. Located at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bayon the Atlantic Ocean, Virginia Beach, and the surrounding cities are famously known as 'America’s First Region’ with Cape Henry being the first landing site of the English colonists. Virginia Beach today has miles and miles of scenic waterfronts, hosting both the East Coast Surfing Championships as well as the North American Sand Soccer Championship. You’ll have plenty of things to do and rooftop restaurants to check out. Why not explore the wonderful resort city by staying at these lovely oceanfront Vrbo accommodations in Virginia Beach?

great property in one of the best locations on the beach Central to lots of activitiesOur original booking was right in the middle of the Neptune festival which was a great location -- our substituted booking was at the far end of the activitiesOnly issue was pull out couches are very uncomfortableNice location on the beach Close to a lot of stuffNo better place to stay then right on the boardwalk
2. Splendid beachfront condo (from USD 319)
If you’re staying in Virginia Beach, there’s no other place to stay but the stunning, riveting, and action-filled boardwalk. And what better a place than a gorgeous oceanfront condo. The condo features two bedrooms with a king bed in one and two double beds in the other, and a living and a dining room, as well as a fully equipped kitchen and a TV. The highlight, however, is the balcony overlooking the boardwalk, which is the centre of all the Virginia action and fun. Grab bikes or skateboards and just cruise down the boardwalk or simply walk along the beach. Dig into delicious food or sip on cocktails in the many restaurants and bars along the ocean. Prop up a chair and umbrella and simply curl up with a book. The best part is that after that swim in the ocean, you can rinse yourself under the exterior shower in the condo and never worry about getting sand inside the house!
