Hampton River Retreat Deluxe Spacious Waterfront Home Near Downtown

We enjoyed staying here, an easy walk to downtown Hampton.

Had a pleasant and easy stay, just like the last time. Good location, nice house, very clean.

We arrived expecting what was advertised, only to find a crater in the driveway that likely caused a tire deflation. Not a great start.Inside, the “luxury” quickly fell apart. A dank, overpowering smell lingered despite the strongest air fresheners. The photos online were a complete illusion—cobwebs, cluttered cabinets, broken hangers, and an alarm without a battery. The floors were uneven, rails were poorly constructed, and there were cracks in the foundation. Rusted fixtures and no laundry products as promised completed the disappointment.The bedroom door knob, which seemed like it hadn’t seen an update in decades, fell off every time we shut the door. This left anyone inside trapped until someone passing by could let them out—hardly the kind of problem you expect from a “luxury” stay.When we called the owner, they seemed unfamiliar with our booking, hinting they manage “several properties.” The result was impersonal service that felt as sterile as an automated system.Lesson learned: not all ads are true, and not all hosts know what it means to truly host. This place is in dire need of an update—and luxury it is not.

Was comfy and spacious for our family. Beds and bedding was extra comfy, all slept well! Enjoyed the beach toys and chairs. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay at the Hampton River Retreat Deluxe! It's an older home (like the rest of the neighborhood) with close neighbors, but the amenities were complete and up to date, everything was clean and functional, and we found it quiet and comfortable. As a base the location could be better--it's a bit tucked away with only one way in and out of the neighborhood. But being right on the river was a treat, and getting to I-64 or Mercury Blvd wasn't bad. Thanks very much--would definitely stay again!

The property was everything i expected amd more. We truly enjoyed the quiet area and short distance to the beach and amenities

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this property! The location was perfect, and the house itself was clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The host was incredibly accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

The house is very nice and very clean. The manager worked quickly to fix a concern with the second floor AC unit. The property manager was kind and very helpful. The house is in the Pasture Point Neighborhood, that is located around the Hampton Courthouse. It’s also close to Fort Monroe. A lot of history in this area.

Clean, comfortable bedding, host very welcoming! Will consider booking again in future visits to the area!

We had a great time! There were a couple of hiccups but the property owner went way above and beyond to rectify the issues. We would absolutely stay here again.
