your own Private beach, adjacent nature preserve-Sunset Dunes Cape Charles, VA

Where to even begin with Sunset Dunes? My wife and I chose this rental to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary and we couldnt be more happy with that choice. Its overwhelming to even begin describing how amazing this property is. Form the beautiful beach to the amazing forest and the incredible house that ties it all together. We've stayed at a lot of places all around Virginia and Sunset Dunes is by far the best we have ever stayed at before. Lots of places to explore or if you want you could just stay on the beach the whole time. Up to you! Special thanks to JB for the great communication before and during our trip. I also couldnt leave this review without mention how great the filtered water is. To the point that my wife is looking into adding the filtration system in our own home lol. So long story short if you are thinking about renting here do not hesitate. You will not be disappointed!

This place is beautiful John was wonderful to work with we had a blast Thanks again John

We really really liked the location, the private beach access. The house was totally clean, very nicely decorated. Ideal distance from grocery store and the town with restaurants and shopping. I was there with my several kids aged 8-18, and I would consider it maybe not the best place for kids under 16 just because kids are prone to have too much indoor energy to feel totally comfortable around nice but breakable decor. My communication with the owner suggests he would probably concur with that assessment. Overall we definitely enjoyed our time there. A favorite vacation for sure.

beautiful,peaceful.we did'nt want to leave.

What an awesome property!!!! Best experience I have had in 5 years! Host are wonderful to work with. Highly recommend this property for special occasions and exceptional quality and clean.

We've had a truly wonderful vacation at Sunset Dunes! Unbelievable that we were also fortunate to have perfect autumn weather the entire stay, too, offering us many opportunities to walk on the beach and delight in gorgeous morning sunrises and stunning sunsets. Unforgettable. We were very much spoiled by the easy access to the beach and savored the shore breezes coming off the Chesapeake Bay as well as the expansiveness of your beautiful house!

The house was is very nice and well appointed. Downstairs space is very open with beach views. Enjoyed walking to state park right next door for daily walks. Drive to town about 15 min was no big deal. Host very helpful. The biggest negative -which really wasn’t a big deal -was the master bedroom shares bathroom with room next door, but doors can be locked. Overall, the entire family very much enjoyed their time in Cape Charles !!

We would like to thank JB and Jing for allowing us to stay at their property, it was absolutely stunning. We truly enjoyed every aspect this property has to offer but really enjoyed the wildlife we saw every day...From bald eagles, osprey, hummingbirds to a few snakes (they don't bother you) and of course all the deer. We also enjoyed walking on the beach and hanging out at the sand bar. Absolutely no complaints, we had a great time!!!

I chose this for a special family gathering and it more than lived up to expectations. The house is ideally situated for a group that enjoys outdoor exploration and provides the space and privacy for a wide age range. You can walk for miles along the beach in either direction or through the woods to the Savage Neck Preserve adjacent to the property. The sunsets are spectacular.We appreciated the single kayak provided - we'd also brought a canoe and kayak so spent a lot of time on the water. A beach umbrella would have been helpful. The house itself, along with the garage apartment which we rented, was perfect for our group. It is spacious and cool, immaculately clean and very well equipped. The kitchen layout is good and there is ample storage space for groceries there and in the pantry. We would have liked a couple of large serving bowls. We would have used the outside patio for dining, but the evenng sun is on it, so an umbrella for the table would be useful. We used the screened-in porch with its comfortable chairs a lot for reading and quiet time. The teens and young adults appreciated the large screen TV. The owners asks guests not to use outdoor shoes in the house and makes it very easy, providing baskets for shoes in the entry way - the lovely outdoor shower and hose also makes keeping the sand outside easy. Communication with the owner was excellent, with any questions answered promptly. The house manual is very detailed - a couple of suggestions: we thought that it had probably been added to as needed over time and could do with an edit; also, include information about recycling (single-stream recycling at the very efficient Eastville transfer station). Many thanks to JB and Jing for sharing their house, which they have equipped and furnished with great thoughtfulness.

This was one of the most amazing houses we ever stayed at. The house is a high quality construction. Great floors, furniture appliances and powerful and quiet ACsystem which is essential for a beach vacation. The house sits in a beautiful Pineywood right next to the beach. The beach is literally hundred steps away. You enjoy a an amazing smell of pines and dunes and can see the bay right from the house in the back porch. The kids spent all the time in the water. The adults took long walks along the beach in both directions. We also enjoyed our dinners on the back porch looking at the most incredible sunset and later at the stars and the fire flies. The house was spotless and really appreciated the rules about keeping the scent out of the house. This made our stay very pleasant and comfortable. Thank you very much! We hope to come back soon.
