Getting Around:
Cape Charles is located near the southern tip of Virginia’s Eastern Shore right on the Chesapeake Bay. Cape Charles is a small town (the historic area is roughly a six block by six block square) that sits on the peninsula’s western coast… meaning you can sit on the beach in Cape Charles and watch the sunset right over the water. On the Chesapeake Bay, not the Atlantic Ocean, the water is calm and shallow. The picturesque town of Cape Charles is filled with Americana, all about family and beautiful surroundings, voted one of the Happiest Seaside Towns by Coastal Living. Let the beach be your playground! Check out the walkable retail district, schedule a tee time at one of Bay Creek's award-winning golf courses, or take a water adventure for fishing and cruising.

Problems at check in

We were able to check in earlier than 4 but when we got in to the property the heat was not working. We notified property manager at 3:00. By 5:00 they reached out to local person who tried to fix it but ended up calling repair company. At 10:00 that night it was repaired. At one point the property manager was going to check on the problem and was going to get back with me but we never heard back. This whole process was unacceptable.
Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025

Stay in Cute Little Town

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was super clean and had most of the things we needed. I wish there had been beach towels in addition to the bathroom towels. Also the upstairs neighbors were quite loud and you could hear every step through the ceiling. But overall we enjoyed our stay and the location was super central to everything. We also loved having a bit of flexibility upon checkout and would recommend this stay to friends.

Great Space!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It’s very hard to find a partial weak rental in Cape Charles so we were very excited to find this place. It’s very clean. Very neat. Has killer AC and the Mini courtyard neighbors are awesome. My only suggestion to the owner would be to tee up the kitchen with more pots and pans, but other than that, the space is great

The perfect little get-away

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved staying at Sweet Virginia Breeze and hope to stay there again and again. It was perfect for my husband who is on crutches. We were able to walk right in from the parking lot. One bathroom has a walk-in shower, so that was easy for him as well. The only things we would offer as possible improvements would be to add a stackable washer and dryer. There is certainly space. We could also hear the people in the above space walking quite clearly, so maybe adding some insulation in the ceiling. The outside shower wasn't really usable as the weeds had taken over, so cleaning that up would be a suggestion. It's a little far from the beach, but we rented a golf cart and that made it very easy. I highly recommend the golf cart.Otherwise it was amazing!!

Sweet Virginia Breeze

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The apartment was clean and most stuff looked new. Everything looked nice.Kitchen was sparely equipped. There was no blender, large pots with lids for seafood boil, corn on the cob or such. No pan for the pizza we bought one night, no 2 qt beverage container. All dishes are heavy and glass or porcelain. Not convenient or child friendly at all. No ceiling fans, we struggled a bit between too hot and too cold.The noise from movement upstairs is very bothersome and we heard everything dropped, moved and shuffled along with footsteps.Smart TV had no local or realtime channels available. If you don't subscribe you ain't watching.The washer dryer combo is small and does not completely dry clothes.Location is not bad but you must realize beach and downtown is not easily walked, must drive to beach.No chest in either bedrooms, wound up leaving most of our cloths in suitcases.Had to hunt for wash cloths and hand towels, 2 bath towels were left on each bed. however had to do some serious searching for wash cloths and towels, found in a bedroom closet.Not a bad spot for someone immune to noise from upstairs, who plans on driving or renting a cart, has no problem with minimum kitchenware and only heavy glass tableware.Not for us, we will next time shoot for closer in, better equipped and no upstairs neighbors.Rented this as a last minute deal, not much else available at the time and the price looked reasonable. However when fees were added the price went up a full 45%. Reasonable became pretty steep at the touch of the reserve button.

Clean and fresh!

The name says it all! This cute condo with its new renovations in shades of blue and teal is so relaxing, just like an ocean breeze! It has everything you will need to cook, clean, and enjoy staying here. The town is adorable but make sure to get a golf cart for the most convenient exploring. The walk to the beach is rough with all the chairs and coolers if you don’t have a golf cart or at least a wagon! We totally enjoyed ourselves.
