Great house on a beautiful beach!

We had a great time, the house was very clean and owner was very helpful, even recommending good places to eat. It was a great location, only a block away from the beach. The house was spacious and easily fit the 10 of us, and had toys and games for the kids to use. I would recommend it 100%!

Perfect vacation house for families

We spent a week in August at the Blue Crab House and loved our stay. The house was clean, well equipped with a spacious kitchen and living room. Ample space for our family of 4 adults and 4 teenagers. Morning coffee on the balcony was awesome! The beach is less than 5 minutes walk from the house. Everything was perfect.

Family Visit

Great property and easy to follow instructions from owner. Was visiting our son in Hampton and had my parents join us from North Carolina. Perfect place to stay in Hampton with lots to do and see. The beach was just across the street and an awesome park. Will surely stay again in the future.

Great location!

We had 7 adults and 3 children in our group for a long weekend trip. We were able to walk to the beach in the morning, come back to make lunch, then return to the beach for the afternoon every day. There was also a park across the street that had a craft fair on Saturday. Host was great and easy to communicate with. All in all it was a great getaway.

Great for families!

This was a beautiful property in a beautiful location! I loved that there were toys and games available for kids, especially since it ended up raining most of the week we were there and we didn't get to spend as much time at the beach as we had hoped. As for the nearby beach, it was really great for kids and families. We had a wonderful time and will hopefully come back again!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is decorated nicely and is very spacious. Also, we have rented many houses and this kitchen is the best equipped kitchen we have ever had. Our host was very friendly and promptly responded to any questions we had. We would definitely rent again.

A JOYFUL Stay!

I chose this house and location for a women’s retreat on JOY and it exceeded our expectations. It is a beautiful place to stay with so many amenities and lovely rooms and porches. It is steps from the beach and beautiful boardwalk. Our host Errol was incredible. I was so grateful for his excellent communication before, during and after the stay. Such a lovely stay!

Fun beach vacation for all!!

The Blue Crab Beach House is a beautiful home with plenty of space for a family/friends vacation. The house itself is nicely decorated and contains all of the amenities you could ask for (and more!). The location is a short walk to the beach, and the beach is a more secluded beach where you do not have to worry about overcrowding, etc. My family will definitely stay again!

Extra house for extra company

Needed a little extra space for our family Easter with our daughter’s family that lives close by. It was well stocked, clean and had the amount of bedrooms as in the description. Easy in and out with the key pad. Worked perfectly! Short walk to the beach!

July 4th week - retired Military family

We had a wonderful stay over the July 4th week. The place was spacious and location to Buckroe Beach was so nice to be close and walking distance. The house fit our 3 generations nicely. Staying at the Blue Crab Beach House was much better than getting separate rooms at a hotel. We could cook/eat together and relax together under one roof. Errol was an amazing communicator and was texting me BEFORE I needed anything - which was wonderful. Thank you for welcoming us into your home. We treated it as if it were our own!

Vacation

The house was beautiful. The owners were very helpful throughout the whole stay. The house was a short walk away from the beach which helped with the 5 children that were in attendance. For the most part, the neighborhood was very nice and well maintained. We would definitely rent this house again!
