North End Virginia Beach Retreat -Private Pool -Walk to Beach -Sleeps X
Escape to Virginia Beach’s quiet North End—just steps from the sand. This spacious home features a private pool, multiple living areas, and everything you need for a relaxing, crowd-free beach stay.
The beach is right across Atlantic Avenue—an easy one-block walk via the dune access path. Load up the Roleez beach cart, take in the ocean air, and you’ll be on the sand in minutes.
After a day at the beach, come home and unwind your way. Relax by the private pool, play ping pong, billiards, or cornhole, grill dinner and enjoy outdoor dining, sit back with a drink on the porch, or simply unwind with a book or nap.
Whether you’re looking to stay active or completely unplug, this home offers the ideal balance of comfort and convenience.
When you’re ready for more energy, the Virginia Beach boardwalk is just a short trip—about five minutes by car or 15 minutes by bike. Enjoy restaurants, shops, and live entertainment, then return to the peace, privacy, and comfort of the North End.
Why Guests Love This Home: Quiet North End location away from crowds, easy walk to the beach, private pool and multiple gathering spaces, ideal for families and groups, and close to the boardwalk—yet far from the noise.

Fantastic vacation house
This was a perfect beach vacation house for our family! We had two adults and 4 adult children. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The pool table and swimming pool were a big hit. The house was very clean and stocked with what we needed. The beach cart made the short walk to the beach even easier. It was a short drive to stores and restaurants. The owner was quick to respond and we had everything needed to enjoy a week of family time.

Beach Life Isn't Good - It's Outstanding!
Our stay at this beautiful home was nothing short of perfection! This was a family vacation with our children and grandchildren. Six adults and four children - ages 13 to 21 months. The home is beautiful, spotless and provided numerous spaces to gather separately and together. When we weren't at the beach or the boardwalk, we had the pool table, ping pong table and outdoor pool to keep both the adults and children busy - and having a blast! In fact, we found ourselves spending more time at "home" rather than going out! The house is located on the north end of Virginia Beach in a beautiful residential neighborhood. Location was perfect as we could walk to the beach in 5 minutes or make a quick drive (10 minutes at most) to the boardwalk where there was a lot of action. Best of both worlds! The host, Maria, was very responsive with all communication. Our experience was 10/10 and we highly recommend booking this incredible property.

Wonderful Property / Splendid Spaces
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. Although the weather wouldn't cooperate for a portion of this week, it didn't prevent us from having a great time in the saltwater pool. The accommodations were absolutely splendid. We had more than enough space to spread out for down time and great spaces (main floor kitchen, dining, sitting area or the basement TV, billiards, bar area) to enjoy each other's company. The kitchen hits the mark in size, well-appointed appliances, and all the "necessities" to cook any meal for a large family. The use of the beach wheelbarrow definitely came in handy and was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this property for a family vacation and look forward to booking this location again for our next Virginia Beach vacation.

Great beach stay!
Had a wonderful stay. House was exactly as described, spotless, and beautifully appointed. Loved the pool and all the outdoor seating. Just a quick walk to a very clean and quiet beach (note you do have to cross a busy street). Far enough away from the downtown area to be peaceful but quick enough to get there to enjoy the boardwalk. Lots of little touches in the house to make it kid/teen friendly like the music system, games, etc. having the second washer/dryer was genius. host was super responsive to questions. Even our pup had a blast!

Family vacation
The place is exactly as it looks in the pictures. It was beautiful and clean and close to the ocean. Our favorite part was the pool of course. Everything was within driving distance and not far away. The host was very responsive anytime we had a question. One suggestion I would make is with the sound system, it’s a great system but for the technically challenged I would suggest a guide at the house that gives directions for it, other then that the place was amazing and I hope to stay there again I’m the future.

Attention to every last detail
The owners went through great length to make this house feel like home and more! There are so many spaces to gather together or just catch some quiet time and each one was well thought out and designed to bring relaxation and serenity. The location is a few blocks from an entrance to First Landing State Park. It's an easy walk to hike, bike, or enjoy the beach by the bay. The oceanfront is also one short block and easy to travel with the beach buggy that is provided. We all wish we had another week to stay!

Perfect Beach House
This is without a doubt the nicest pet-friendly house we've stayed in. We had 6 people and a dog and it was perfect. The pool is so fun. We didn't spend much time at the beach because of the heat but it was a quick walk from the house. The house has a large beach cart that made it easy to get chairs and other gear to the beach. The owners are great. They have put a lot of work in to making sure that the renters have everything they need to enjoy their stay and responded to all questions quickly.

Best Beach Vacation Ever
The actual written Vrbo looked very good but the actual experience of staying at Summer Breeze was more than excellent !!! From the ease with check in procedure to actual check out there was no problems at all. Summer Breeze was extremely well kept and beech looking . We traveled with 3 generations the youngest being 18 months old. He actually did very well with a pack and play set up in master bedroom closet where it was dark and quiet. proximity to beach was very close indeed , just a short stroll. Also very thankful for beach buggy , chairs and beach toys that were readily available in garage.
The bonus was being able to bring our pet dog who had a wonderful time at the beach and also walking along the service road that is easily accessible for biking and just an evening stroll.
There was plenty of room for everyone and much entertainment offered with pool table, ping pong table and pool.
extremely friendly neighborhood.
Comfortable beds with plenty of pillows, and towels. Enough cookware , dishes and glasses with the bonus of plastic glassware for pool area.
Thank you for a wonderful experience, and would stay again next year if Virginia Beach was our destination!

Beautiful home
This is a well-decorated home which does not feel like a typical beach house. The pool is wonderful and really allows you to extend your day after time on the beach. The home is on a very quiet street which worked well for my three girls and myself. It may not be a great fit for a larger, louder family as the neighbors are very watchful (and not all are friendly). This property may be best for a well-behaved group of older adults.
Very pretty house!

Vacation Perfection
I needed a place to get away, relax and enjoy the beach. The location is perfect--one block to the beach in a lovely neighborhood with friendly people. It's about 30 mins walking to the major hotels but a quick 5 min drive (hotels and boardwalk). The house has it all! It's beautiful and well appointed with every amenity you could want. The pool is a huge plus! It was my morning swim and afternoon relaxation. If you bring your dog, the back yard is fenced so you don't have to worry about them wandering off. There is a nearby feeder road where everyone walks, jogs, rides their bikes and walks their dogs. Edgar Cayce spa and restaurant (Graze) are 2 blocks away; highly recommend their services and delicious food. The owners were also amazing; very quick in responding to any questions that I had.
I hope to return next year for another getaway! I actually hated to leave!!!
