Very Accommodating!

Place was awesome. Initially seemed small but actually was nice to be close to my wife. They thought of everything and we cooked a few nights just to stay in and eat on that deck. Grill worked great, view was amazing, just an awesome place.

We spent 4 wonderful days at Sea La Vie.

Sea La Vie is a cozy cottage where we were able to relax and unwind sitting by the bay on a sunny dock. Peaceful environment. Just a short walk to Sandbridge Beach and a short drive to Virginia Beach. Lots of restaurants nearby. We very much enjoyed our time there. Badria and Jay were thoughtful and attentive hosts.

This tiny house right on the Back Bay in Sandbridge Va is in a community of recreational vehicles which have been made stationary in a beach neighborhood between the ocean beach and the Northern Back Bay. The house has a full kitchen, one bathroom, sleeps four, snugly, or two comfortably, and has an outdoor shower. The community is a one block walk to the ocean and our house faced southwest and was on the Back Bay, dock included. The community has a couple swimming pools and a nice beach restaurant, Baja, a short walk away. Our little house was called Sea La Vie and offered two kayaks for the use of occupants and two beach bicycles. The Back Bay Refuge was a level ride away on the bikes. Very fun community offering fun beach, ocean, and bay activities. Our hosts were very accommodating and friendly and we enjoyed every minute in this tiny beach house including sunsets and stargazing.

Great views, clean & organized!

This is a great property and the pictures are 100% accurate. It has great views, many amenities, and was very clean. It also had all the extras: well stocked kitchen, plenty of towels/bedding, and bikes/boats. EVERYTHING was labeled and this made it exceptionally easy to slide right into vacation mode (and not spend time trying to figure out how to turn something on or the location of an item)!! Communication with the hosts was excellent too.

There was a huge rain storm as we were approaching our rental, which flooded the road that was necessary to enter the area. Our hosts were on the phone with us, helping us to get a hotel in the area that accommodated pets. They graciously deducted one night from our rental fee as well.The cottage itself was cozy, clean, and comfortable, and included many special touches such as a dog toy for our pup, a basket of snacks, and a lavender sachet and slippers on the bed. The view of the bay was beautiful!It was a relaxing and enjoyable stay!

Cozy spot

My wife and I wanted to check the Sandbridge area out, and Sea La Vie was a great place for a couple. Beautiful spot right on the bay. The little house was fully equipped and there were bikes and kayaks we made use of. The development had a pool, tennis/pickle ball courts, and was across the street from the beach. Our hosts Badria and Jay were very responsive to any questions. Highly recommend!

Amazing Place

My husband and I stayed for a few nights with our dog. I cant express how amazing this place is. We have been to a lot of beaches and beach houses and this by far was our favorite. The hosts did everything to make our stay easy and relaxing. We came during tropical storm Debbie, and the host kept us update with the weather every step of the way. The cottage was clean, fully stocked amenities (even phone chargers), with beautiful views. I would recommend this place to everyone. We plan on making this place our yearly vacation spot.

Sea la Vie

Our stay at Sea la Vie was wonderful. It was myself, my husband, 2 grown daughters and a dog. While it was tight, there is plenty of sitting room between the outside and inside that we were all comfortable. The deck is lovely and the constant breeze kept the bugs away. We ran into technology issues at check in and the hosts were very quick in responding over text to get us smoothly checked in. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect beach retreat for family!

Spent a week at Sea La Vie with 2 kids and our dog. It was perfect relaxing beach week retreat for the family. The house was cute, clean, and had everything we needed including for Fido. Badria and Jay were very responsive our whole trip. We used the bikes to visit the local nature park, the beach wagon to roll our 4 yr old whose “legs were too tired” to and from the beach, and we had tons of fun at the aquarium and arcade on VA boardwalk. We used the kitchen for some home cooked dinners and lunches, and LOVED the deck and chairs. Badria and Jay added so many cute touches like the chocolates by the bed, dog toy by the bed, candles, and guest information book. We loved our stay!!

Beautiful, cozy, impressive attention to detail

Could not gush more over this spot. The community was not only even more picturesque than the pictures suggest, but everyone there was super friendly. The sandpiper beach across the street was comfortably walkable and had almost the feel of a private beach as it was very empty, so I was able to take my dogs there in the evening. The home is beautifully furnished and boasts a tremendous amount of detail, from plenty of basic comforts to labeled drawers, to games and towels and beach chairs and more. Already my friends and I have recommended this little gem to many friends and family. A little tight for 3+ people, but especially for a couples getaway (and doubly so if bringing pups), it would be hard to beat even at a considerably higher price point.

Nice location right on the water, great communication & Check in process. Very clean and comfortable full size bed! Things that could be improved: Queen bed is just a couch that can be turned into a bed and size wise seems too small to be a true queen. Also it was unstable because the plywood underneath fell in when we tried to pull it out, so my husband and I slept separately because we are not used to a full size, so he slept on the couch which was not what we expected to have to do. The shower pressure was very low and temperature was lukewarm. There was a weak spot in the floor at the foot of the bed and it felt like you could fall through if you weren’t careful. Overall these things were pretty minor and we still enjoyed our time at Sea La Vie.

Perfection

This was overall the most enjoyable trip I’ve taken, from the booking process to the stay itself. Our hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed during our stay and to maximize our fun while we were here. The view on the water is mesmerizing. My kids enjoyed fishing off the dock where we caught catfish, trout and even saw an alligator gar. When they weren’t fishing they were enjoying the kayaks provided. The bay is beautiful and the beach is just a quick bicycle ride away- bikes also provided. We were welcomed with a smore kit for the kids and rods ready to take cast. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Perfect Getaway with superb hosts

Badria and Jay were exceptionally welcoming, friendly and informative hosts! They were very responsive to all my questions throughout our stay and prior. We had only one small issue (the kitchen sink handle was loose) which Jay resolved within the hour and gave us a gift card for the (very minor) inconvenience. The cottage was tastefully decorated and very welcoming. It had all of the comforts of home: ample hangers, phone chargers, spices & condiments, paper towels, bath & beach towels, and more! They also provided beach chairs & wagon, boogie boards and kayaks! Perfect location right on the bay. The two pools on site were well taken care of and never too crowded. We saw beautiful sunsets every night. Everything was wonderful and we’d definitely stay here again!

Finally got to Sandbridge… And it was well worth the wait!

I first heard about Sandbridge Beach about 12 years ago when I was on a plane coming back from Barcelona Spain. A woman I was talking to said she was from there and I never forgot it because I’ve never heard of it before. I’ve been living in Virginia now for nine years and, even the native Virginia’s, don’t know of it. The RV was just darling and everything from the furnishings to the dishes was just perfect. I loved my own little deck and being able to walk to the beach. Everyone in the community was so very nice and friendly. I ate at two great restaurants and although the cottage was a bit away and required about a 2025 minute drive to each restaurant, wasn’t easy drive and I always made it a point to get back in time to enjoy the beautiful sunset

Beautiful spot right on the water. This felt almost like a houseboat! Though is one of the older mobile homes in the park, the inside is very clean and contains everything you could possible need with some thoughtful little extras. It is listed as being able to host 4 but I think you might be hard-pressed to comfortably accommodate that many. The fold out couch would be a very tight squeezed for 2 and it is very firm (my husband slept here since the double bed was too small for the both of us). The outside deck and spaces could use a little upkeep i.e. pressure washing, raking yard, etc. Be aware this is somewhat of an insect mecca and spiderwebs form on everything in the blink of an eye. Bikes, kayaks and outdoor furniture need to be brushed down before use each time unless you're ok with cobwebs - which I decidedly am not. Luckily- the view from the deck is captivating enough you'll forget all about them. Absolutely glorious sights especially at sunset.

Our family didn’t want to leave! Walking out the door to the water was just the breath of fresh air we needed. We definitely splurged on our stay, but it was a memorable vacation and our hosts had many little details that made our stay special. I do wish there were a paper copy of the house and community processes and codes so I didn’t have to find things on my phone. That would help being truly disconnected. Highly recommend and we haven’t stopped talking about our trip.

Communication, cleanliness, and location was very Good. We enjoyed our stay, but the comfort level could be improved. The bed was too small for my husband and I. We ended up sleeping in separate beds. A full size bed and a small pull out sofa which were both very hard and hard to sleep on and left my back hurting. The bathroom was very tiny with very little water pressure and not ideal. Overall we had a good time but fixing these things would make a huge impreovement.
