Beachy
Davids place was large and spacious for our group. The kitchen had ample dishes and utensils as well as pots and pans. Blender worked great for our frozen treats! The shed had plenty of beach items and the wagon came in very handy. Note that while the home is in close proximity to the beach (just a few houses down the street) there is a bit of a walk from the boardwalk to the water, which was a bit hard for my older mother. David was very responsive to questions and had recomendations for a local seafood restaurant. We were very happy with our stay and would stay at Davids place again! Thank you!

Wonderful family vacation
The house was very comfortable with everything you needed. The beach was a very short walk from the house and away from all the crowds. It was a great week vacation for our entire family.

This house had all of the amenities that our family needed, and there was plenty of room for all of us to spread out. The owner of the home was very communicative with me over the months leading up to our trip (making sure we had everything we needed, etc) and even left our family a Welcome Basket. The house was as described on the VRBO website. We would definitely recommend this rental to others.

Great spot in the north end
We had a wonderful time. David, the host, was responsive and thoughtful, starting us off right with a lovely welcome basket with necessities and treats. He took care of the minimal issues immediately that we had during our stay. The house was perfect for our family of six (including young kids) plus a rotating cast of extended family during our stay. The bedrooms are all well appointed and provided lots of storage plus comfortable beds. The kitchen was well equipped and had nearly everything we could want for our stay. The beach shed had every bit of gear we could need, including the all important Wheeleez beach cart. The outdoor space was a dream, with a large deck, shaded table, and fenced yard for the kids to play. The outdoor shower is enclosed but does open on to the road facing side of the house so not quite as private as would have been ideal (but remained an excellent perk even still). We will absolutely be returning next summer.

Overall Great Place
We enjoyed our stay at Boca Chica! Proximity to beach was awesome! Just a short walk down the block. Accommodations were nice. The only thing I believe that should be listed on the online booking site is that basic items are not provided. It listed that towels and sheets were needed but this is the first vacation home we have ever rented that didn’t provide toilet paper and soap at bathroom sinks. Also, things like a hair dryer, salt and pepper in kitchen weren’t provided. I know those are little things but with as much as we travel and stay in homes, those have always been provided. There were a few other issues but we notified the owner of them. Overall nice stay.

Great week with family and friends
My family of five and my friend’s family of 4 all met up here for the week. The house was big enough for all of us and had everything we needed. The walk to the beach was easy (even with kids) and the wagon that was in the shed was a huge help hauling our stuff. The beach had lots of room and wasn’t very crowded. We had a blast seeing dolphins and ghost crabs. Check in and out process was very easy and Dave was very easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions promptly . Would definitely recommend and hope to come back sometime!

Nice place!!
We all enjoyed our stay here. It was nice having the shed of beach items to use. Like others mentioned a well stocked kitchen. There was also a crockpot that the owner didn't know was there. My only " annoyance" is and I'm sure it's because I'm a rookie at staying at a place like this. I didn't realize I needed to provide hand soaps, tp, paper towels, etc. Of course never thought to ask either. So it's definitety no fault of the owners. I would certainly stay here again. :)

Family and friends vacation
The location and neighborhood is absolutely perfect. The beach is a very, very short walk away and you do not need to cross any traffic. The other houses on the street are very quiet and respectful. The property offers a lot of amenities that we wish would have been more clear as we wasted packing space on things already in the house. Overall, the property is as described and pictured. A great place to stay on a quiet street but still very close to the busier areas if that is what you are looking for at night!

Property was as described.
Our stay was fantastic. The property was as described and depicted in the photographs. The premises was tidy and had plenty of amenities. The owner provided a storage shed full of beach gear and a cart to haul it in to the beach. The owner was friendly and reachable if necessary. It is not beach front but was next to it with a brief walk. The beach was very quiet and clean. Although the property was next to a street, we sat outside often and was not bothered by the traffic noise. The fenced in yard for the kiddos was a bonus.

Great location!
Overall the property is very nice - good size for 5 adults & 3 children. Perfect location to the beach. Outdoor shower was great as was the use of the beach cart. We beach vacation frequently and this was better than most. Note that this is a duplex with another unit at the rear with some noise coming through the walls. The grill looks like it's never been cleaned so we didn't grill as planned. Also, both trash & recycling cans were over full on arrival Saturday. Trash pickup is every Tuesday but recycling is only every other Tuesday (which was not on our week) not sure the prior renters put trash out there was so much sitting there & most of our recyclables had to go in the trash. Also, found several dishes/pans in the cupboards that had food stuck on them. Those cupboards could use a thorough going over. Recommend guests bring a fan for the upstairs - AC doesn't circulate well on the 2nd floor.

Great family beach house!
We had a wonderful beach week at Boca Chica! It was clean and the location was perfect! It is steps to a quiet peaceful beach and in the beautiful north end neighborhood. The outdoor shower and shed full of beach gear were really nice! The owner is extremely responsive and left us a thoughtful gift basket. Wifi works great but cable is lacking so bring your Roku. Home is smaller than it looks on the picture because it is a duplex.

Nice but not exactly what we expected due to distance to water
Our family decided that we would try a new beach locale this year. After many weeks of searching, we chose Boca Chica. Our party consisted of myself, my spouse, my elderly father, and two children. David was quick to respond to questions. The property was extremely well-kept and clean. The porch and table are decently sized, and there was plenty of seating for the entire family. There is also a shed that has a beach cart, several beach umbrellas, chairs, and toys. There are 4 parking places for the property & 4 for the other unit directly behind the rental, similar to a duplex. No one was staying in the other unit the week we were there so I cannot comment on noise levels coming from that unit. Two nights before we left, we almost called the police as there was an extremely loud, sustained argument at one of the places next door to ours. There was also lots of road noise all day and into late evening which I did not enjoy. I would suggest a white noise machine or fan if noise disturbs your sleep. The house is directly beside the main road but there is an intersecting street that you turn into to access the property. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook with but I was very disappointed that all of the cabinets were filled with dishes and other kitchenware and there was absolutely no room for groceries. I had to stack everything on the kitchen table the entire week. There is a dining room table also so we did not have to move things around constantly. The refrigerator/freezer, stove, and washer/dryer are in good working order. The dishwasher was difficult to turn on and did not dry dishes at all. We had similar issues with the coffee pot. The air conditioner works extremely well. Probably too well. We got chilly often, which usually does not happen in other costal rentals we have been in this time of year. I would definitely suggest bringing some throw blankets. The beds were comfortable. The BR downstairs is a queen suite with a full private bath. Upstairs is another suite with a king bed and private full bath. There is a BR with 2 twin beds, and another BR with a bunk bed (twin & full). Another full bath upstairs and a 1/2 bath downstairs. One tv in living room and one in king BR upstairs. Caveat - steps from the beach does not mean steps to the ocean. You have twice the distance to walk across the sand to the water. It was very hard on my elderly father. Also, beware of the huge drop off at high tide if you go into the water.

2021 Beach Week!
This is a lovely, updated home quite near the beach with a well-equipped kitchen and a lovely beach shed with a cart, chairs, and umbrellas. It was such a respite after such a long quarantine! We shared many laughs and a few tears. This is a great location, with no roads to cross to access the very nearly private beach. David was totally accessible by text and very helpful in every way. We had a problem with the dishwasher, which he attended to immediately. We had a few dinners on the deck that were a bit daunting because of the road noise. Other than that, we felt this was the perfect location away from the bustle of the boardwalk! I hope to return.

Great family get away!
This beautiful home had everything! Located on residential street that dead ends at beach access point, so getting to the beach was just a short walk. Utility shed has beach wagon, chairs, toys, sun umbrella. The back yard is fenced and I played out there with my 3 year old grandson when we weren’t at the beach. The home itself is beautiful and contained truly everything we needed. Plenty of dishes, cookware, seating during mealtimes as well as comfortable seating in the living room. We all sat on the back deck every evening until after dark and then moved inside to the dining room table to play games. It rained a few days during our stay, so we chose those days to visit the nearby aquarium, arcade, or do some shopping. Just a short drive to the strip. We would definitely recommend this place. Owners were wonderful.

Quiet north end property
The house was cute, just as pictured and clean. Beach is a short walk and there are plenty of chairs, toys, umbrellas, and even a beach cart which worked better than ours would have, if we remembered to bring it! The master bedroom upstairs had a comfortable bed. The kids enjoyed their rooms too. Cannot speak to the comfortableness of the bed downstairs as we did not need it. Pleasantly surprised to find: dish detergent, dishwasher pods, laundry pods, dish towel, trash bags, plastic wrap and foil! Many times in the past we’ve had to provide all of that. Road is a little loud, but we weren’t home during the day (spent all day at the beach!) and it died down enough so it was barely audible over the air conditioning at night. Added bonus, David left a very nice welcoming basket. Thanks for a great week!

Great location
David's home was a very short walk to the beach. Beach was uncrowded and had plenty of space, perfect during COVID. We had an electrical problem on the first night that kept the power out in one of the bedrooms, but David was able to repair it the next day. The dishwasher was also broken for almost the entire week, but David acknowledged the issue and tried to fix it the best he could. David was accessible by phone when needed. The shed was stocked with lots of supplies for the beach including a great wagon for hauling over chairs, umbrellas, etc. The house was clean and we liked that there was no carpet in the home. However, if you have small children the shower/tub was rather dangerous for them. We also liked how there were two master baths.

We enjoyed our stay at the home. The location was great for families. The beach was beautiful and relaxing. We saw dolphins daily. The house was clean. Great outdoor shower and convenient sand toys/beach umbrella/beach chairs. A few downsides: No Cable, bathtubs/showers are outdated, 1st floor bedroom mattress is uncomfortable, linen service was not included in the price, you can hear traffic from the upstairs master bedroom.

A great rental!
We were very happy with this home rental. David was so responsive to all of my messages before and during the stay. He was helpful and provided a lot of helpful information. We loved spending time out on the deck under the large umbrella. There was plenty of room for all 9 of us out there for meals, drinks, coffee and conversation. The grill worked well. There is a shed with a great beach cart that pulled easily on the sand. There were also plenty of beach toys for the kiddos as well as umbrellas and beach chairs - all of which made packing for our trip so much easier. The house is a short drive to the boardwalk, first landing park and the aquarium. The rental us located on the corner of Atlantic and 73rd. The traffic noise didn't bother us and there is plenty of privacy with a fence and landscaping. The house was very clean and everything was perfect and comfortable - AC worked great, beds were comfy, washer/dryer worked fine. David left a nice welcome package and allowed is to check-in early as soon as the cleaners were done. We arranged linen delivery through Beach Linen and Leisure which worked out great. The beach itself was a short walk and was sandy, clean and not super crowded. We swam and played on the beach every day and saw dolphins several times too. Thanks David for making the house-rental portion of our vacation easy and comfortable!

Excellent property for family vacation
Excellent property and owner overall. Home is a very short walk to a quiet beach on the north end neighborhood of VA beach. Short drive to the boardwalk and other local attractions / restaurants. Kitchen is well stocked with plates, kitchen gadgets, small appliances, etc. There are 3.5 bathrooms and spaces for four cars to park. Owner provides wagon and some beach gear which was helpful; especially the wagon which worked better than mine. Owner was very responsive to messages before and during stay and also provided a small welcome package. Only slight downside is the home is right off of the main road so cars that are speeding can be heard. Also bathroom sink and bathtubs are not the most child-friendly. Overall, great stay!
