Paradise in Williamsburg next to Busch Gardens

ShaniaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Very close to Busch Gardens as stated and easy to find. The home was very clean and had lots of brochures for nearby activities and restaurants. Everyone including myself stated having had great sleep. The host is very easy to get ahold of and quick to respond. I highly recommend this Airbnb!

Little Slice of Cambridge. 2 bedroom, pet friendly

JoanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We rented A Little Slice of Cambridge because of the Iron Man competition held that weekend. It was convenient to the venue...and allowed to walk to the competition and nearby restaurants. Pamela was a wonderful host...communicating easily. The rental was well stocked with toiletries, dishes, pots and pans and extras. The house was comfy and the beds comfortable. An enjoyable stay...unfortunately, we weren't able to stay for more sightseeing...although I did walk down to the Lighthouse and beautiful wharf.

Tree Top Beach Bungalow 3 1/2 blocks fr beach

AndiRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Cute, clean, and cozy place! Hosts were extremely accommodating. The location is close to the beach but tucked away in a not-so-busy neighborhood, so you can walk to destinations while still having a private and quiet location. Would definitely recommend!

Bamboo Bungalo Duplex Near Busch Gardens

JanekRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Very comfortable and well-priced home, very easy to find, check in and felt a good location for the sights in DC - even without a car you can get a tram or bus into the centre, and the Metro was not too far a walk away either. The neighbourhood felt fine and safe. Parking situation was fine - it's only 2 hours during weekdays right outside but there's free parking with no time limit just a street away (2 min walk). Would recommend as somewhere to stay for a trip to DC.

Spacious Gorgeous Waterfront Home with Sunset View

KathrynRating, 5 stars4 days ago
My family of 10 had a great stay here! There was plenty of space to spread out and the location is perfect and serene. We were able to fish out on the dock and caught a few spot! One of the friendly neighbors even stopped by to offer some raspberries from their bush and extra firewood. We did run into an issue after check in with one of the bathrooms, but Karina was quick to respond and sent someone out to handle it as quickly as possible. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Beach Please! River cottage w/private beach & dock

SarahRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My family and I stayed here for a week for our family vacation. We are a group of 8 (6 adults and 2 kids) and there was plenty of room for all of us. We barely left the house because with the beautiful view, dock, beach area, canoe, kayaks, hot tub, game room/ library, corn hole, and fire pit we all had plenty to keep us entertained. Everyone loved Mary & Shelly’s place, and it provided the perfect space for us to enjoy the river and each other’s company!

Pointe Haven near Historic Yorktown

RuthRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a two night stay with the plan to spend a full day at Busch Gardens with my daughter and two teenage granddaughters. We found this home to be extremely comfortable, and conveniently located about 25 minutes from Busch Gardens. My granddaughters especially enjoyed the fire pit, with wood ready to light, and the supplies to make s’mores! Everything was clean and well thought out with great attention to detail. We look forward to a longer return visit before school in the fall!

2 Bedroom Beach Condo Block Off Boardwalk

AshleyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Tara's place was perfect for our family getaway. The inside was clean and tidy, the location was perfect walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and shops. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the convenience of having sand toys readily available to play with. Tara had a great binder put together of things to do and places to eat with not only top favorites and recommendations but also local favorites. Our family would stay at one of Tara's places again.

Oceanfront Gem VaB Studio Exceptional Views

GingerRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was our second time staying at one of Rebecca and Sean’s VA Beach condos — and the experience did not disappoint! This is just a perfect location, at the very end of the Boardwalk, with a private grassy lawn and outdoor seating just for the condo residents. Lots of restaurants in the surrounding blocks. Our favorite thing is the view — you look right out onto the ocean from the patio, and you can see the beach and the sunrise from the comfortable bed each morning. We spent unhurried hours sitting on the patio in the evenings enjoying the sound of lapping waves and the night sky. This cozy studio was just right for the two of us. Highly recommend. I’ve no doubt we’ll stay there again in the future!
