Barefoot Bungalow

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This charming home on the bay overlooks Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, so bring your binoculars, because you can expect abundant wildlife views and bird watching off the back deck. This family- and dog-friendly getaway, located just one street away from the beach, offers a private oasis feeling while still being close to central Virginia Beach, just 15 miles north. Little Island Park, with public parking, a fishing pier, playground, picnic areas, tennis courts, and a life-guarded beach is just a few minutes away, but with such a lovely setting and so much to do at home, you may not venture far.

Bookend your days in your abundant outdoor space - spend the morning enjoying the sunrise from the front, ocean-facing deck, and step outside to the back deck for a spectacular sunset over the bay. In between, the kids and family dog will love playing in the huge, fenced yard, and you’ll all love swimming in the in-ground pool, soaking in the hot tub, and watching the birds from the small dock. Spend the day exploring the water with the four kayaks and two stand-up paddle boards on hand, and then fire up the gas grill and dine alfresco on the deck or opt to eat in the screened porch.

Indoor space is just as welcoming, with an open floor plan, comfortable furnishings, and hardwood floors throughout. The well-equipped kitchen features butcher block countertops, a lovely copper farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. Coffee lovers will especially appreciate the coffee bar, at the ready to fulfill your caffeine needs. Countertop seating and a large farmhouse-style dining table round out the mealtime seating options, and there’s room for everyone to relax on the large sectional at the end of the day. When you get tired, three well-appointed bedrooms down the hall promise a restful night’s sleep, including the primary bedroom with deck access and an en suite bathroom. Drift off to sleep with one perfect vacation day behind you - and another to come tomorrow.

THINGS TO KNOW
The pool will be open from late April through early/mid-October.

Definitely coming back next summer

Our stay at the Barefoot Bungalow was great. The house was very clean and comfortable, and the yard was amazing! We were able to catch some catfish off the dock, and feed some turtles too. The kids got to kayak in the bay, and swim all week in the ocean and the pool. We’ll definitely be making this a yearly vacation spot. Also, thanks to the owners for the recommendations, loved the Baja and Bandido’s!

A great beach stay!

An incredibly homey and pet friendly beach cottage! Owners have clearly continued improvement on the property, with many more amenities than those pictured. Easy beach and bay access made for a trip full of options for activities. 10/10 would stay again!

Nice dog friendly home

Check-in and check-out was very easy. The fenced in backyard is great for dogs. The deck, pool and hot tub were great. Kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to dine in. Plenty of towels and linens were available. Sofa and carpets were somewhat worn but comfortable. The front and back outside stairs are steep so be aware if elderly. Overall a very good experience.

Family getaway

Since my son is stationed down there, every year myself & my other children vacation down there & my son & his family come to stay with us. When I found this place I thought it looked beautiful! I am not one to complain, & we had a great time despite some issues, but I feel like these are worth mentioning. Upon arriving, I found the kitchen counters to be very sticky. I also found a wet dirty sock on the counter, and another on the sofa. There was a small piece of metal (I sent a picture) in the sheets in my son's bed, that cut his foot! Our sofa bed in the living room was broken & nobody came out to look at it until the next day. Luckily I brought a blow up mattress which we had to use for the whole stay. There was dog hair everywhere. If I had access to a vacuum, I would have done it myself. There was hair on the bathroom floor. It just wasn't clean. Kinda gross. I cleaned as best as I could, but shouldn't have had to for the money I paid! This is beyond their control, but worth mentioning...there was no water in the inlet to the bay therefore we could not use the kayaks or paddle boards (this was a big factor in me choosing this place!). Overall, we had a good time, but it was disappointing. When they reached out to me the 1st or 2nd day asking about the place, I told them these things, but nothing was done about it. Nobody from Vacasa ever reached out to me, so what was the point in asking to begin with if you weren't going to do anything about it.

Peaceful Property with Everything we Needed

Overall, we loved the proper. It had wonderful amenities. It was peaceful, and we had everything we needed. It was only a short walk to the beach, and the beach was beautiful! The only things that could have been better were: the bottom of the pool was covered with bird poop, so we didn't really use it; the grill wasn't cleaned and was clearly used to cook fish, so we didn't use it; there were dirty dog bowls and toys laying around the property~our dog tried to drink out of one of the bowls that had dirty water in it before we could get it picked up. Otherwise, the property offered a wonderful place that we could vacation and bring our dog, and that was something that was hard to find.

Home away from home

This older beach house was well equipped with all the basic needs. Kitchen was fully stocked. Beds were comfortable and had an abundance of storage for your belongings. Bathrooms were clean and furnished with plenty of towels. Added bonus of toys, if you brought your 4legged family member along. Internet was satisfactory And Netflix for a rainy day. Porches provided privacy and intimate setting area for a family bbq. Pool was clean and a hot tub to relax in after along day at the beach. At no extra cost, kayaks and paddle boards were available. Amazing sunset views every evening while listening to the wildlife amongst the bay. On site laundry and a large fenced-in yard for children or pets to safely play. Ample paved parking with basketball hoop. Definitely less than a 5 minute walk to the beach. This is a newer rental and I was a little apprehensive about no prior reviews, however this was satisfactory for my family and our budget. Nothing but good things to say about “Barefoot Bungalow”.

Our weekend stay

The property location is lovely, beautiful view from the back of the house and a short walk to the beach. It was very nice that they provided kayaks and a paddle board for use. The pool was also a plus for us. However I do want to mention that there was dog hair on sofa seats and throughout home under beds and coffee buffet keep in mind of allergic. Also one Saturday we were interrupted with a grass cutting that then left the pool full of grass clippings. We enjoyed the outdoor screened porch section and the chils proof gates. The home has all the necessary accommodations. We just needed to buy a propane tank for grill so keep in mind to check. A little out dated but it was still a lovely weekend. Some pros and wanted to share our cons that may not bother others.
