Vacation Rentals in Virginia Beach, Virginia
Virginia Beach Accommodation Guide
Oceanfront vacation rentals in Virginia Beach put you right in the action (and keep you within your budget, too, there are lots of rental deals). In place of a busy downtown is the busy Virginia Beach Boardwalk. But while the East Coast beach town is all about the ocean, it's also got tons of things to do on a rainy day. That means Virginia Beach accommodations are popular throughout the year, though of course summertime is the best time to visit if you plan to swim and catch a tan.

Beach, Beach, and More Beach
Virginia Beach beach houses are definitely the way to go if sand and surf are your two favorite vacation ingredients. Depending on what section of the coast you stay on, you might have views of the main Virginia Beach, Sandbridge Beach, Croatan Beach, or Chesapeake Bay. Whatever part of the ocean or bay you wake up to, though, outdoor adventure is right around the corner, from kayaking (coves and inlets, galore) to fishing (saltwater and freshwater) to dolphin watching (during the spring, summer, and fall).
Take a Hike
Nature lovers and hikers, in particular, will really fall for Virginia Beach cottages, which provide a comfy and relaxing place to retire to after a long day exploring. First Landing State Park, the Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, and False Cape State Park all have trails perfect for strolling or hiking. A really unique place to unwind with nature, though, is the 165-acre manmade Mount Trashmore Park.
If, on the other hand, you want to see animals up close without having to hike or peer through binoculars from a fishing pier, check out the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center.
Get Lost in a Museum
Museum and history lovers should consider Virginia Beach vacation rental homes, as there is plenty in store for them beyond the beach. Tour historic estates and sites like the Francis Land House, Adam Thoroughgood House, Lynnhaven House, the Old Cape Henry Lighthouse, and First Landing Cross (where English colonists landed in the 1600s). Kill some time at popular museums like the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art, Old Coast Guard Station, Military Aviation Museum, and the Atlantic Wildfowl Heritage Museum. Not to be missed is the truly original Association for Research and Enlightenment, inspired by Edward Cayce, who is arguably the most famous and confounding "psychics" of our time. Take advantage of cheap Virginia Beach vacation rentals, and you'll have plenty of funds for all the top local attractions!

Pure Fun
Besides catching a wave on the ocean, or reeling in a big fish on a boat, there's adventure off the water in Virginia Beach, too. Go kart racing at Motor World, getting spooked at Nightmare Mansion, playing mini golf at Jungle Golf, and "real" golf at the Red Wing Lake Golf Course... the list goes on and on! And of course, don't forget about the sprawling, slide and ride-filled Ocean Breeze Waterpark.
Vacation Rental Homes vs Hotels
As you can see, Virginia Beach cottages, homes, and villas are great for everyone and great for any time of year. Virginia Beach - the town itself - covers every base. There's not a single age group or interest left out. So, why spoil this with a boring, small, and uninspired hotel room? Virginia Beach beach houses can be whatever you want them to be - small, cozy, and cheap, or luxurious and packed with amenities (yet still affordable). Groups and families are accommodated especially well with oceanfront vacation homes in Virginia Beach, which might have features like a game room, satellite TV, beach access, or private pool.
Pet-friendly Virginia Beach beach cottages are even available, so you don't have to leave Fido at home. With all the off-leash dog parks, dog-friendly beaches, and even pet boutiques in Virginia Beach, pet-friendly rentals are a very real option.

Virginia Beach Vacation Deals
Cheap Virginia Beach vacation homes are not hard to come by. Compared to a hotel, cottages, cabins, villas, and beach houses offer up a lot more space and amenities. Trade in a one-bedroom hotel room with a dinky microwave for a 3-bedroom pool home with a full kitchen. Groups and families are an especially good fit for this Virginia Beach lodging style.

Last Minute Deals & Long-term Lodging
With last minute deals, cancellation specials, and unique offers added into the mix, your Virginia Beach accommodations get even more affordable. There are other ways to save, too. Although Virginia Beach is hopping during the summer, visiting during any other season - especially winter - will get you cheaper, off-season rates. As well, choosing weekly or even monthly Virginia Beach vacation rentals (over weekend and nightly) can be a more budget-friendly approach, as the longer you stay, the more you'll save. Long-term Virginia Beach vacation homes can be very cheap!
Luxury Resort Stays for Less
Like the pampered life? You can stay in a luxury Virginia Beach resort! And in fact, by booking through Vacation Rentals.com instead of through the resort directly, you can also save big bucks.
Whether or not you stay at a beachfront resort, though, you can still get a lot more for less by choosing vacation rentals over hotels. Especially if you book a beach house with a big group who can help split the bill. Private pools overlooking the ocean, expansive decks with 360 degree views, gourmet kitchens, ocean view balconies... all of this can fit into your budget.
