Port Haywood, Virginia
A beachfront oasis where the Chesapeake meets the Atlantic awaits your arrival. Come down and relax on two large decks overlooking a mile-long private white sandy beach with views to the eastern shore!
Built in 2010, our home boasts all of the modern amenities. Downstairs is a spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances overlooking the large living and dining room. Through the sliding doors is the outdoor dining area with a gas grill and seating for 8. You will also find a bedroom with a queen bed, a second bedroom with twin-size bunk beds, and a laundry room with full-size washer and dryer. Finally there is a full bath with a custom stained glass window.
Upstairs is the master bedroom with cathedral ceilings and custom stained glass window, opening to a deck. Enjoy magnificent ocean views and the beautiful Virginia sunrises right from your king sized bed. A second large king bedroom awaits your guests. Next door is a large attached bonus bedroom with a twin bed and seating area. There is a full bathroom on the second floor.
If having a green vacation appeals to you, the house has not used any power from the grid since we installed solar panels on the roof in 2018! You can also charge your electric vehicle with our level 2 charger.
A major beach replenishment project was completed in the 2020. The beach has never looked better or been more inviting. Please keep this in mind as you read some of the older reviews as the issues that were appropriately raised at the time no longer exist. It is amazing to see how 11,000 tons of sand can transform the waterfront. We can't wait for you to come see it!
With the beach at your doorstep the water activities are endless. The beach is very family friendly, with shallow warm waters and gentle waves. Located only an hour from Colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens. Enjoy local eateries, antiquing, and wineries right down the road. Of course, when on the Chesapeake, you can do as the locals do and go bird watching, fishing and crabbing.
Stick your feet in the sand and soak in the sun at our secluded beach getaway!
The location of the property was great. Our family enjoyed being on the beautiful beach. 4 adults and 1 child slept very comfortable. We encountered some issues: grill not working, ants in kitchen, ripped screens enclosing screened in porch. Overall, we had a great trip.
Beach and back bay was ideal for toddlers. House was nice for multiple families. Although upstairs you need to walk through master bedroom to get to back bedrooms. But that worked for us. Screened in porch nice to gather and relax. We ate all our meals out there except for a couple when it was too hot.
very nice
We enjoyed our stay in Bavon…it is a beautiful place!
“Tranquility “ is the perfect name for this hidden gem!
7/30-8/6/2022 This was our first stay on the Chesapeake Bay. Tranquility lived up to its name. The house was lovely- spotless upon arrival. We were not bothered by the upstairs bedroom set up. Homeowners might consider putting in French doors between the 2 back rooms though. It would give a bit more privacy to each room. The room with the twin bed could even have a queen bed and a bunk or trundle bed as well- plenty of room. That twin mattress was extremely uncomfortable for a weeks worth of sleep. That is my only “complaint”. The views from the master bed waking up each morning were phenomenal!! Sitting on the upper deck was relaxing and peaceful listening to the waves and the insects each morning and evening. The kitchen was huge and had everything we needed to cook each night! Dining in the screened in porch each evening was fun for our family. The kids & teens played games each evening or walked along the beach to see all the night creatures! We rented paddle boards that were dropped off and picked up at the end of the week- couldn’t have been easier! The bay is perfect for kayaking and paddle boarding or floating in a noodle chair! Most days we were the only family on the beach! The water was warm and very little seaweed. My girls are older but it is a perfect beach for young children as it is very shallow for a good distance out. We did an excursion to Colonial Williamsburg one day and it was just under an hours drive. We tend to try different destinations each year but Tranquility is on the top of my saved list! It was a fabulous place to relax and enjoy spending time with family! Thank you for the use of your gorgeous home!! The Flemings, Laferrierre, Denisons, Haight, Gillette, and Diorio
perfect beach spot, house was very nice. enjoyed closeness to historic parks as well. My grandson says we will be back.
This house was simple, but the location is ideal, especially if you like a quiet, low-key beach getaway. While there are other house on the beach and it might not always happen, we had the cove to ourselves all week. I'm sure there are never more than a handful of families on this private beach. We had nice walks towards the lighthouse and even had family photos taken.
Loved the location, privacy as well as close to town for groceries and restaurants. Will be back!
We chose this property for the great location and private beach and we were not disappointed. We enjoyed peaceful walks up the Natural Preserve shore and absolutely beautiful sunrises. Great spot for kayaking or floating on a raft with kids. The house was cozy and kitchen well equipped. The layout of the upstairs bedrooms is unusual, but we made it work.
This was my family’s second stay here and my Pennsylvania family’s first stay. It was amazing! Perfect getaway for the week. We were on the beach everyday and loved every minute of it. Even getting caught in the rain! The host was very quick to respond to messages and very friendly! You won’t regret staying here!
