  Joe B from Midlothian, VA recommends this vacation rental

  The Seahorse Retreat was the perfect location for a long weekend getaway. We had never been to Cape Charles before, and the condo was perfectly situated in the historic downtown...close to shops, amazing restaurants and cafes, and the beach. Everything is walkable here, and we had a great time strolling around Cape Charles and seeing all of the beautiful homes and the central park. The beach is les than a five minute walk and we went there every evening for the sunsets. The front deck was perfect for breakfasts (after hitting the Mason Ave Bake Shop) and lunch as we could enjoy the sun and the people watching.
  
  The only concern we had about the place was the carpet, which is very old. We would recommend replacing with a vinyl flooring product, as the carpet maintained those burrs from the beach plantings and had a faint musty smell when we closed up the windows. Otherwise, the condi was very well appointed, and we loved the bed and the recliner!

  Terry W from Christiansburg, VA recommends this vacation rental

  Simply awesome. The apartment was one of the prettiest we have ever stayed in! Clean, light and airy, beautifully decorated. Sipped coffee on the veranda with a book in the mornings, then a wine in the evenings while we watched happy vacationeers stroll the charming street below. One block walk and we were on the beach swimming or on the pier watching breathtaking sunsets. Bike and kayak rentals also only a block away, alongside a seafood restaurant with an outdoor bar overlooking the bay. It really was quite perfect.

  rebecca s from staunton, VA recommends this vacation rental

  This was a great spot for a weekend getaway We went mid-September so it wasn't crowded, parking was easy, and the shops and restaurants were still open. The condo is clean, comfortable, well stocked and just steps away from shops and restaurants. There is a concrete production plant directly across the bay but it didn't disturb our overall experience. We still enjoyed sitting on the deck to watch the sunsets and people out and about. We will visit again!

  Chris G from Reston, VA recommends this vacation rental

  This quaint, quiet upper level condo is ideally situated on the edge of the shopping district, putting it close to the beach and to cafes, restaurants and the local cidery. It's a short walk (and shorter golf cart ride) to anyplace you want to go. The condo has all you need for a comfortable stay: a fully equipped kitchen, laundry, linens and towels. It is charmingly decorated with seahorse and mermaid themes, which amplifies the beach views from the balcony. Great for a couple looking to get away for the week.
