The details:

Welcome to "Carolina on My Mind", a 2bed/2bath 1400 sq ft luxury beach retreat located at the southern-most part of Virginia Beach in the charming coastal community of Sandbridge at the exclusive Sanctuary at False Cape complex, which sits among the pristine sandy beaches and sparkling waters of the Outer Banks of Virginia and is the only beachfront complex in Sandbridge! Your toes will literally be steps from the sand with no roads to cross.

This unique Oceanfront location within Virginia Beach provides the serenity of the neighboring National Wildlife Refuge with the convenience of swimming, surfing, and a fishing pier, plus tennis courts, a playground and a sheltered picnic area at Little Island Park next door. At the same time, you're only a stone's throw from a variety of grocery, dining, and shopping options all over Virginia Beach.

Inside, you'll find a spacious living area that features a stunning shiplap fireplace feature wall, premium hardwood floors throughout, two comfortable over-sized sitting chairs, a large, comfy sectional with queen sleeper, a foosball table, and dining for 8. You'll also find Ocean views from some areas in the main living space.

Enjoy homemade meals in the large, fully-equipped gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a bar top with bar stools. Relax on the private patio with both Ocean and Bay views! Cuddle up for a movie night on the large 70" Samsung 4k Smart TV with 5.1 surround sound or have a family game night.

The Master bedroom features a King bed that has a remote-controlled adjustable base and with en-suite and access to the private patio. Watch Netflix or Disney+ in bed on the 50" smart HDTV! The secondary bedroom also features a King bed plus a twin loft, its own 50" smart HDTV, with another full bathroom.

Full of a variety of amenities, this luxury condominium offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and Back Bay. Imagine having your morning coffee while the sun comes up over the Atlantic and relaxing on the patio in the evening while the sun sets over the Back Bay. In between, take a casual stroll along the shore to the pier and listen to the crashing waves while a group of dolphins swim by. Spend the day basking in the sun's rays on the beautiful beachfront or take a beach break by one of the three sparkling pools available exclusively for guest use.

You can workout in one of two state-of-the-art fitness centers, or just pause and enjoy the scenery from one of the many benches located along the private oceanfront boardwalk. For your culinary delights, the pool deck features multiple state of the art Viking gas grill stations with plenty of options for seating and dining, and if you're more in the mood for a night on the town, there are numerous restaurants, breweries, and eateries all around Virginia Beach - and it would be our pleasure to guide you to some of our favorite local spots.

The condo is stocked with games, books, cards and activities. The possibilities are endless!

As your hosts, we are committed to making your stay memorable, comfortable, and enjoyable. We pride ourselves on attention to detail, and we strive for 100% satisfaction 100% of the time. We treat our guests like family, and we are constantly looking for ways to improve the guest experience. As fantastic as the property is, we want your host experience to be our best amenity!

The house was immaculately clean and comfortable for an early Galentines Weekend away with friends. Communication with the host was excellent and all of the information that was given beforehand was thorough. I have never had a host send so much information prior to the visit. There was no stone left unturned. I will definitely be visiting again!

We were supposed to go to Siesta Key Florida but got washed out by Hurricane Helene. So, we had to scramble and pick a different direction. We chose Virginia Beach. We chose well. The condo was very nice, beach was clear. Local food was good. We had a very nice trip. The condo is spacious and nice. Also well equipped ! We highly recommend a stay here!

Beautiful condo with all the latest amenities. We had plenty of room for six guests. The owners keep their property well maintained. We loved in the evenings chilling out watching a movie on their 70 inch tv with surround sound. Each bedroom has their own tv as well. Property is a minute or two walk from the beach. We would definitely recommend. The owners are very responsive too.

We had a wonderful time staying in this condo. The location was perfect with easy access to restaurants and quiet areas to explore like the Wildlife Refuge. The condo was exactly as described and very clean upon arrival. The beds and sofa were comfortable and the owners kindly provided shampoo, conditioner, and a few days supply of tp, trash bags, and dishwashing detergent. A big bonus for us was the close proximity to the large VA Beach pickleball complex. We spent our mornings on the courts and our afternoons relaxing on the beach. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your condo for a much needed weekend of rest and relaxation. We hope to be back next year.
