Sea La Vie is a hidden gem! Small and cozy, perfect for a couple. Tucked in a quiet community making it a calm and restful space. An easy walk to the beach, but because it’s set right on the bay you can also simply relax next to the water while enjoying your morning coffee on the porch. The hosts, Badria and Jay, have curated a space filled with thoughtful details and have implemented a simple check-in and checkout process. We would absolutely stay again.

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.

Staying at this adorable place on Back Bay was a real treat. Very nice gated rv/tiny house community. Everything you need for a comfortable stay, including luxurious bathrobes! Special extras for our fur babies. Nice porch with retractable screens. Fishing from the dock. Clear detailed instructions and quick replies from hosts. I highly recommend this sweet gem of a place.

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!

"Cottage" is really an RV

When I read "charming cottage" and looked at the photos for this place, I did not picture an RV. It's a nicely kitted out RV, with a deck, but an RV nevertheless. We felt misled. It would be very easy for it to be made clear: just include one exterior photograph of the "cottage".There were bicycles, two kayaks, a porch, starter food, towels, etc., but I couldn't get over the fact that we were in a trailer park.

Cute Quarters with Amazing View

We really enjoyed our stay here. Minor hiccup we encountered was after a long drive we arrived and there was no running water. The property owners fixed it promptly early the next morning. The view and dock are incredible. It is a small space but cozy and they have everything you need to cook and make yourself at home. Our dog loved it and they even had treats and a dog toy for our girl. Overall a great stay and prompt communication from the owners. The gas ran out and they very quickly instructed us how to change the propane tank.

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.

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.

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
