About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming home with outdoor space for relaxation and fun. 5 minute walk to beach.

Family fun in the quiet north end of Sandbridge. After a day at the beach, come home to relax in the private pool, soak in the hot tub, hang out by the new poolside cabana bar, or enjoy a drink on the cozy screened-in porch. Cook dinner in the fully appointed kitchen and eat local seafood on the large deck, or drive into Virginia Beach and experience the night life there! Ideally located on a quiet dead-end street and within a short walk to the beach, Three Little Birds is a classic Sandbridge Beach cottage that has been expanded and updated to maximize relaxation and family fun. The property includes 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a cozy living/dining/kitchen area with flat screen TV and DVR, plus two outdoor entertainment areas: a new deck and screened porch combination attached to the second level living/dining area; and a landscaped yard that includes a pool, hot tub, poolside cabana bar, covered porch, patio, and lawn. This is the perfect setting for making memories with your family and friends! Sandbridge offers easy access to several parks, farmers markets, restaurants, and shops, plus everything Virginia Beach has to offer. The Virginia Beach Oceanfront entertainment area, including the famous 3-mile boardwalk and parallel bike path, is a 25-30 minute drive.
Please note we do not provide towels, sheets, or pillow cases. The bed configuration is 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Twins, 4 Single Bunks, and 1 Pullout Full Sofabed. The beds have blankets/covers and pillows.

Great Stay in Virginia Beach

We recently stayed at Three Little Birds and had a fantastic experience overall. The property was beautiful, well-maintained, and offered stunning views of the surrounding area. The house was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts were friendly and responsive, adding to our positive experience. One aspect to note: we had to bring our own sheets and towels, which was a minor inconvenience. It would have been even better if these were provided. Despite this, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Three Little Birds and would recommend it to others looking for a relaxing getaway. Definitely a place we'd consider returning to in the future.

Off season getaway

We love Sandbridge, and love it even more in the off season! No crowds, No minimum stays, and increased chance of snagging a choice property on shorter notice. 3 little birds was no exception to our tradition of off season excellence! Such a spacious and charming property! Super short stroll to the beach and a short drive to lots of family friendly destinations! Quiet neighborhood, lovely indoor/outdoor flow with a screened in porch really allowed us to enjoy the cross breeze and escape the mosquitoes! Comfy beds, fully stocked toiletries and kitchen essentials, and very responsive hosts. This stay was the perfect end cap to summer, my kiddos happily welcomed a final outdoor swimming opportunity since pools at home closed on Labor Day! Bravo Chip and Mary!

The outdoor area was spot on considering how little the area was. The screen porch was a great addition to the main living area of the house. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. The beach buggies were great along with all the beach accessories. We had a wonderful family vacation.

Perfect getaway

We loved our stay at 3 Little Birds. We loved the pool and all of the decks and the screened in porch (which was necessary because the mosquitoes were crazy at night)! My husband and I thought our bed was super-comfy, and my mom and older daughter said the other beds were comfy, but my boys said the bunks were a bit squeaky and not very comfy. Don’t forget to bring your sheets and towels because they are not provided. Overall, I recommend vacationing here!

Fantastic property

We loved 3 Little Birds! The home was perfect for our family of 6 — plenty of bedrooms and lovely outdoor spaces. The walk to the beach was very easy and quick, and the provided beach cart made carrying all of our stuff a breeze. We have made plans to return next summer. A note: There is a very heavy wooden table attached to the wall in the kitchen (like a Murphy bed.) During our stay, the weight of the table was only held by a small hook-and-eye latch like you might find on a door or cabinet. My daughter didn’t realize the latch held up the table, and when she curiously lifted the latch, the table crashed down. It bruised/scraped her arm and shoulder and could have seriously injured someone if they’d been in the path of the table when it fell. The incident also caused damage to 2 panels of shiplap behind the table. I immediately messaged Chip and described the situation and offered to pay to repair the wall; he quickly replied that he would assess the damage and get back to us. Before communicating with us what he found or getting a professional opinion on the cost of repairs, he fined us $500 for the table damage and additionally for replacing plastic hot tub latches that were broken when we arrived. In summary, please don’t hesitate to rent this beautiful home, but be aware that the table is a safety hazard and that VRBO policies allow a homeowner to unilaterally assess damage charges with no recourse for the renter to appeal.

Chip and Mary were very responsive to any questions or needs! The home is very accommodating and a great time! The house is cozy, equipped with many games, books, hot tub, pool bar, pool, corn gole boatds, fire pit, etc. all which are a great idea! I look forward to booking in the future. The only recommendation I have is regarding bringing your own towels and sheets. When we received information a few days before our stay, I notified that information, I wish it would’ve been under the house description! Minor, and not a huge deal! It was easy to grab those items and enjoy our stay! Thanks again chip and Mary! I look forward to renting again!

This place was better than I expected. Three birds is the best place to stay if you want to get away this relaxing quiet and a five minute walk to the beach. It was everything that was advertised. We had no problems while we were there. We really loved the place and we wouldn’t look forward to going back. I would recommend three birds to anyone. Communications with the owner was awesome. They get right back to you. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks again Chip and mary for letting us use your lovely home.
