2441 sandfiddler - Swipe Left! Reviewing VRBO's and vacation rentals has become a thing for me. I always leave with high hopes as the photos, provided online are so wonderful - the expectation is that when you get to the weekly rental (6300+ for 1 week) that it will be clean and beautiful. Here is the good part - 2441 Sandfiddler is spacious- so 3 floors allows for privacy and family. Plenty of parking. Across from the beach access - with clean empty beach. Dogs are welcome but the pet fee is high. Fence yard give the pets or kids someplace enclosed - but there are issues with the yard. The good news is that Beach Pros Reality was very responsive. Most of the issues we found were corrected and therefore the next family will be very happy! Our trip had issues that we needed to point out. Now for the Bad Part: So let's start with clean: there is my standard of clean and then there is what the house actually looks like. In this case - the home was swept and appeared clean - but then let's look a bit deeper. Stove was filthy (inside and top) - here are photos to show what sandbridge realty approves as clean is just a basic wipe off. Then the fly in the fridge, the filters for the AC return and the general appearance of out side (see photos). Yard has hazards and really no appeal. The house has huge vaulted ceilings and an AC until working overtime to cool the huge space - it struggled and was not really successful mid day in May - can't imagine what July would be like. Furnishings are very used old items that the goodwill would not take if donated - the sofas are old and tired support, no springs, uncomfortable. Let's now go to the amenities - hot tub with hot water full of sands and pool that you can not see the bottom makes you wonder if you should actually get in. Our guests had fear about getting in. In fact the lady's stated that they might get a urinary track disease or worse. Worse once the pool guy got to the house he tried to blame the issues On the prior family. Even went on to say that it looked like food in the hot tub - I can tell you it was not food! read more

My family and I love Sandbridge and always rent from Beach Pros. However, based on my most recent experience we will not be renting from Beach Pros again for the following reasons: 1. I called a week before our arrival to ask about their cleaning process and to request an early check-in. In response to these questions, I got cussed out by a Beach Pros staff member. 2. According to Beach Pros, the house was subjected to a "deep clean". However, this place was disgusting. I had to clean this entire house before I was comfortable letting my family in. Similar to some of the feedback in other Google reviews, Beach Pros was quick to blame me for the state of the house. According to them, the house was dirty because they let me check in early and weren't able to clean the house well enough. They had 2 full days between the prior tenant and me to clean this house. 3. Beach Pros and/or the owner has neglected to do basic maintenance of this house (Salty Dog). For example, the dining room light was missing 3 of the 6 light bulbs, tiles were not attached to the floor, screens had huge holes in them, the front door doesn't seem to be secured to the door frame, etc. 4. False Advertising. According to the Beach Pros website, the house we rented had free weights and an elliptical. However, this equipment was not in the house. After cleaning the entire house and my daughter hurting herself with the screens and floor tiles, I said enough is enough. On day 2 I requested to check-out early for a refund on the unused nights. They refused and offered to send someone over to clean the house, which I declined because I already cleaned the house. I tried to talk to the general manager, but she never called me back. I also reached out to the owner (twice) and she never called me back, either. read more

Think twice before renting through Beach Pros Realty. Excited to find a home that accommodated our family. A few weeks before the country even knew about Covid 19 and shutdown we put down our deposit. As soon as we all sheltered-in-place (different homes/different states) we contacted them to get our deposit back. No. VRBO gave us back our fee. Airlines refunded tickets. Beach Pros Realty nothing. We've been in weekly contact and still they won't budge. Are the beaches open? You can walk on them. That's a no. Are restaurants open? Curbside pick up only. That's a no. Is anything open? Not as of yet. That's a no. We offered to pay the realtor commission. Nope. While Beach Pro might not care about putting people at risk, we do. Be cautious working with these uncooperative, out-for-themselves-only people. They don't care about your health and safety. read more

SWIPE LEFT - Reviewing 2441 Sandfiddler Rd, Vacation rentals has become a thing for me. I always leave home with high hopes as the photos, provided online are so wonderful - the expectation is that when you get to the weekly rental (6300+ for 1 week) that it will be clean and beautiful. Here is the good part - 2441 Sandfiddler (Beach Pros) is spacious with 3 floors, allows for privacy for family and open areas for fun. There is Plenty of parking. The Rental is directly - Across from the beach access - with clean empty beach. Dogs are welcome but the pet fee is high. The fence yard, gives the pets or kids someplace enclosed - but there are issues with the yard. The good news is that Beach Pros Reality was very responsive. Most of the issues we found were corrected and therefore the next family will be very happy! Now for the Bad Part: We rented a house that sleeps 24 and we are only 5 people - so we could have beach access, hot tub and swimming pool. So, let's start with clean: there is my standard of clean and then there is what the house actually looks like. In this case - the home was swept and appeared clean - but then let's look a bit deeper. Stove was filthy (inside) - here are photos to show what Beach Pros realty approves as clean is just a basic wipe off. Then the fly in the fridge, the filters for the AC return and the general appearance of outside (see photos). Yard has hazards and really no appeal (photos are misleading) The house has huge, vaulted ceilings and one of outdoor AC was not working. The AC until was working overtime to cool the huge space - it struggled and was not really successful mid-day in May - can't imagine what July would be like. I called Beach Pros the minute we arrived and was told that was normal and to just lower temp on the main unit. The man insisted that I did not really have a problem. We suffered with the heat until we walked into the Beach Pro Monday morning, and I told them the compressor unit outside was not running. They sent a AC Man right away. Let's now go to the amenities - hot tub with hot water full of sands and pool that you cannot see the bottom makes you wonder if you should actually get in. Our guests feared about getting in. In fact, the lady's stated that they might get a urinary track disease or worse. What made it worse was the Pool Guy insulting our intelligence by 1. blaming it all on the family prior to our arrival 2. telling us it was food dropped in the hot tub. I download the operation manuals of the pool and hot tube - it was neither of those things and it was clear the Pool Guy was not changing filters, running back wash or maintaining the equipment properly. This is a water mold - due to improper maintenance and no one changing the filters. Shocking the hot tub will not fix this! The horrifying part of the entire event was the Pool Guy attempting to clean the filter (See Filter Slime images) throwing the slime on the ground. I told him he need to buy a new filter and he needed to clean that crap up - we have dogs. Again - what is clean. Can't see the bottom and wonder if there is something growing in it. I did not use the pool or the Hot tub - which we paid extra for and pointed out to Beach Pros - only 5 people rented this home that sleeps 24. How about these barbeque grills - rust for lunch anyone? Good news they got new grill the day we complained!! Furnishings are very used old items that the goodwill would not take if donated - the sofas are old and tired support, no springs, uncomfortable. The grounds (see before and actuals) Outside - dead grass, broke pavers, decks with nails and warped splinted wood boards, melted siding and weeds. Decks: beware do not go barefoot Screw heads stick up, board are trip hazards. Not exactly what is expected for $6300 dollars! Our trip had issues that we needed to point out. Beach Pros - did send pool guy, AC Guy and 2 New Grills! However, they did not compensate us for the day we spent making sure the Maintenance people did their jobs, or the fact we could not use the Hot Tub or Pool. read more

Terrible, unit was not clean, patio was not clean. Blood stains on master bath shower curtain, shower liner filthy, light bulbs burnt out, sofa dried food on it, fridge dirty, drawers broken on dresser. They don't care. Save yourself $$$ and frustration, use another company! read more

Overall this place is huge and while the VRBO listing says 4 bedrooms, and it's actually 3 it provided us all plenty of room. But all that said I would not rent this unit again. The rental company is very hard to deal with. None of The codes checking in worked, the rental office gave us wrong codes multiple times to the point I had to threaten to contact the authorities as I was unable to lock the door to the unit. Multiple small appliances in the unit did not work and the linens were stained. We contacted Beach Pros and they dumped off a ton of linens however did not change them. They did replace the coffee pot, blender, and toaster after being me severely annoyed by the dirty oven, broken coffee pot, blender and toaster about to catch fire. There was also no batteries in the remote. Internet is a joke. You can not stream anything (the listing says high speed) and the kids can not play any games without disruption. The service team came by as the internet stopped working all together as the owners could not see the temp on the thermostat. They apparently pay for the lowest plan (not surprised). The slats on the bunk beds broke, took them 2 days to fix it, but at least it's done. Overall- the reality company is not proactive in fixing anything. I felt like we have been in a weird version of the Money Pit. And good grief-- if you buy a beach house. Organize your kitchen logically and buy a garbage disposal read more

I wish I had read the yelp review before renting from this company and renting the same house as another reviewer. The place was disgusting - filthy and a health hazard. The beds had to replaced mid stay because they sagged so much no one could sleep. The mattresses they removed were covered in filth - urine etc. The pillows had black mold on the pillowcases. The place had mold everywhere. Pots and Pans were black with dirt and grease. I could go on and on and I have pictures. Beach Pros refuses to do anything about refunding money - they said it's a housekeeping issue which it is not. I would never do business with this company again. This house has been like this since 2015 unbelievable and Beach Pros said they inspect.

We rented a fourth row house in Sandbridge for a week from Beach Pros Realty and had a great time! The house, cabana, pool, and hot tub were very clean. The linen service provided was great...the bedding was clean and we were provided with a large number of towels and washcloths. I would highly recommend renting from them! read more

Customer service is nonexistent. Many realty companies out there, definitely work with someone else.

Based on our recent stay with Beach Pros Realty in Sandbridge, I would highly recommend using a different management company when renting a place. We stayed in mid-August at Sunshine DayDream in the Sandbridge Dunes. Pros: - Great location - The beach access and view of the beach were terrific. We couldn't have asked for a better location. The beach was peaceful and certainly was not overcrowded. The Sandbridge Market and Restaurant were both great finds. - Pool - The pool was really a nice benefit and again, not overcrowded. - Space - The condo was certainly spacious for the 11 individuals that stayed there (7 adults and 4 children). Everyone had their own space and the common area was accommodating. Cons: - Cleanliness - When we arrived from retrieving our keys at your office, we walked in to two individuals (and a young child) who were apparently cleaning the condo. We were told that they were done and that a supervisor would be stopping by to inspect the condo. That supervisor did come by and said he'd be back in a few days to take another look at things. The condo was by no means clean. The steps to the condo were not vacuumed and the upstairs common area had cereal on the floor and a used tissue behind the bed. The floor downstairs required sweeping and mopping by us before we could even let our children play on the floor. The "clean" linens had stains on them which made us uncomfortable to use them (good thing we brought our own). The bathrooms also had to be scrubbed with magic eraser due to the dirt in the tubs. By the time we completed our cleaning, Beach Pros' offices were closed (after 5pm). What we didn't get to was the areas of dust in several locations. Each of the fans have layers upon layers of dust on the pedals that do not look like they've been cleaned in months. The closet door to the HVAC (second floor behind the bunkbeds) is vented and again, the dust is caked on there. For the amount of money we spent to rent the condo, we would have expected more. - Mold - In addition to the cleanliness, there was also a significant amount of mold throughout the unit, especially on the first floor. The mold was such an issue within the condo that four adults that stayed on the lower level all got sick and required medical attention upon arriving home. Three of them have severe sinus infections and one has bronchitis. We tried not to let our vacation be ruined as a result of the mold and just made sure we stayed out of the room as much as possible. The first floor of the condo is not currently not safe for occupants. - A/C - Despite the note on the A/C unit requesting that the air conditioner not be turned down past 70 degrees (which we did not), each of the vents were still dripping (on people while sleeping) at 70 degrees. - Several electrical outlets in the condo were not working. Upon further inspection, it appeared that a few needed some sort of maintenance attention. We took pictures to document each of the items above. When contacted about the issues, Beach Pros simply did nothing. Terrible customer service. read more

The staff is as helpful and kind as any I have met anywhere. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. They are available to answer any silly questions my wife and I had and sent us additional info when needed. They have a wide variety of rentals in the Sandbridge area and we will be sure to book with them again when we return. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable! read more

In December 2014, I contracted with Beach Pros Realty, Inc., 1253 Nimmo Parkway, Suite 115, Virginia Beach, Va 23456 to rent an 8 Bedroom, 4 Bathroom house, known as "By the Beach", located at 3369 Sandfiddler Road, (Sandbridge) Virginia Beach, VA 23456, for the period August 15th through August 22, 2015. From the time I initially inquired about the property, including the property description in the Rental Contract, and continuing through the day before I was scheduled to take possession of the house (August 21st, 2015), I believed that the house I rented had 8 Bedrooms. On August 21st, a representative of Beach Pros Realty Inc. informed me that the house actually only had 7 "Bedrooms" and that the 8th bedroom was actually an "Open Area (i.e. no door), located on the third floor, and was equipped with a Futon. At approximately 4:15 pm on Saturday, August 15th I received the key to the property at the Rental Office of Beach Pros Realty Inc. and went directly to the property. Upon entering, and inspecting, the property it was immediately apparent to me that the property had not been properly cleaned, inspected, and prepared for guests. I immediately called the Rental Office and spoke with "Daniella" and informed her that I had inspected the property and discovered the following, very disappointing, deficiencies: (1) The 8th bedroom was actually an "Open Area with No Privacy" (i.e. no door), and that the Futon was "Broken and Unusable"; (2) The Carpeting on the 3rd floor and each of the stairways was filthy and very badly stained; (3) the Kitchen area was filthy and that it was necessary for myself and several family members to clean and sanitize all of the "Food Preparation Surfaces" before they could be used; (4) the Head Boards, for the Twin Beds in a 1st floor Bedroom were detached; (5) A section of the siding, on the 2nd floor level of the back of the building, had been removed from the outside wall of the kitchen; (6) The flooring boards on the Exterior Decks were weathered and the paint was peeling; (7) The palings of the Deck Railings, were badly weathered and had not been painted; (8) All of the Exterior Furniture in the pool area was dirty and it was necessary for myself and several family members to clean the furniture before it could be used; (9) The Propane Tank for one of the BBQ Grills was Empty; (10) Vegetation (weeds) was encroaching onto the Pool Deck from beneath the fence. Daniella advised that, because of the lateness of the day, (4:30 pm) I would have to wait until Monday Morning for the Carpet Cleaner and the Maintenance Person to look at the Futon to see if was necessary to replace it or if it could be fixed; however, Daniella sent the Maintenance Person "Derek" to fix the Head Boards on the Twin beds. Derek attempted to attach the Head Boards but was unable to because they were not the correct Head Boards. On Monday, August 17th, after several telephonic discussions of the foregoing deficiencies with other members of the Rental Office Staff, I was finally able to speak with the Rental Agent, "Kristy". I expressed my deep disappointment with the condition of the property to "Kristy". Although "Kristy" insisted that the property had been cleaned, prepared for guests, and inspected, she declined to come to the property and verify my complaints and grudgingly, agreed to the following corrective actions: (1) Replace the Futon; (2) Replace the BBQ Grill Propane Tank; (3) Install new shower heads in all 4 Bathrooms so that they functioned properly. During several conversations with "Kristy", I specifically told her of the inconvenience that my family members and I suffered, because we had to clean and sanitize the property to make the house livable for our one week stay, because the property had not been properly prepared for us. Although Kristy repeatedly told me that she would discuss compensating me with the "Property Owners" and that she "would get back to me on this issue", as of this writing, "Kristy" has not contacted me concerning this matter. Because of this experience, I DO NOT Recommend BEACH PROS REALTY, nor the House "By The Beach", and I strongly recommend that anyone, who rents property in the Virginia Beach Area insist on conducting a "Joint Inspection" of the property, with the Rental Agent, prior to moving into rental property.
