Professional Property Management on Virginia’s Eastern Shore
“We have relied on Coastal Shore Vacations to manage our property since we bought our house on the island. CSV handles everything and they’ve been remarkably responsive to our requests. As an example, when intense weather struck, CSV inspected our place for heat and frozen pipes. That saved us hours of driving! The good folks at CSV are wonderful partners in this vacation rental venture and we’re confident that our home is under watchful eye!”
– The Kolhoffs from Richmond


”Your team is everything we want in customer service. Thank you for your patience with our family while we establish our new rental ownership journey. We always want you to know how much we value your honesty, compassion and care.”
– The McLaughlins from Raleigh



Your home. Our commitment.
Eastern Shore vacation homes, the Coastal Shore way.
The Eastern Shore of Virginia holds a special place in our hearts. It’s as unique as the folks fortunate enough to own a place here and experience the lifestyle that we know as “Shore Life.” There is an authenticity to the coastal Eastern Shore - from Chincoteague Island to Cape Charles, and every characteristic little town in between – it’s a place like no other. We are afforded a distinctive way of life full of friendliness, charm and deep affection for this extraordinary stretch of land.
Coastal Shore Vacations is proud and humbled by our deep roots here on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. Starting in 1999 as Chincoteague Resort Vacations, we pride ourselves on being the longest-standing, family-owned property management company on the Shore. With over 25 years of experience, we are an integral part of the area and believe that it’s so very important to give back to the communities that have given so much to us. Our passion and love for this place is demonstrated by the dedication and service that we show each and every visitor, as well as the owners that trust us with their homes. It’s the Coastal Shore way; the way we’ve thrived and succeeded for the past 25+ years. Let us show you.

Professional Housekeeping
Coastal Shore Vacations Housekeeping and Inspection teams are professionally trained according to the ‘Vacation Rental Housekeeping Professionals’ standards. Your home’s cleanliness is the first impression made for each guest – it must be an excellent and welcoming one. The highest level of housekeeping and inspection standards are always at the forefront of our efforts within the Property Care Department.


Skilled Home Maintenance
At Coastal Shore Vacations, your home is our home and that is the way it is cared for. With our knowledgeable and skilled maintenance team, we have professionals that are on-hand and ready to serve. Whether it’s planned preventative maintenance, or an urgent situation that requires immediate attention, we have the resources needed. Coastal Shore Vacations also takes much pride in being one of the only companies on the Eastern Shore that is trained and consistently meets the requirements to remain a ‘Safety Certified’ Property Management company. Safe guests are happy guests.
COASTAL SHORE VACATIONS?
Simplified Guest Pricing
The guess work and “nickel & diming” has been taken out of our pricing strategy. Guests don’t want to see multiple add-on charges; this is why we have an “all inclusive” rate policy that is much more attractive. And we’ll never charge additional credit card fees.
We’ve implemented a Professional Revenue Management service which allows automatic (if desired) dynamic pricing adjustment based on demand, vacancy rates, length of stay, advanced bookings, etc. This allows in-the-moment expert-based pricing strategies to capture more bookings in a very competitive market.

Exclusive Owner’s Portal
Transparency is key. This is why we’ve invested in our Owner’s Portal service; a personalized site that allows you a 24/7 log in to endless information regarding your home. The Portal is where you’ll find real-time reservations with current income figures, monthly accounting statements, pending action items and work orders, owner newsletters and more.

A Personal Approach
When you join the Coastal Shore family, you’re more than just another signon. For us, it’s personal; the start of a long term relationship. For example, our team members will take the time to visit and familiarize themselves with your home. Do you have contact preferences? Or maybe specific home care instructions? No problem. We don’t have the “one-size-fits-all” mentality –each owner is treated with the individual care they deserve.
Local Year ‘Round Offices
Coastal Shore Vacations has three local offices here on the Eastern Shore: Chincoteague Island, Cape Charles and Captain’s Cove. Each office is staffed daily and open year ‘round; you’ll always receive a live voice on the phone. We’re your local “boots on the ground” connection and welcome you to stop by any of our offices anytime.
“Thank you for managing our home. As owners, it can get stressful. Your establishment always keeps things running smoothly. Thank you for being so flexible and understanding so that we can have a “stress-free” rental season!”
– The Sayles from Lititz




You have a great team and we appreciate how you treat us like family. Our place is well cared for and always SUPER clean!
– The Becks from Midlothian

It’s a TRUST thing, and we take it seriously.
Whether your decision to own a home on the Eastern Shore is because of family heritage, a private retreat, a retirement destination, or an investment opportunity, we understand that, regardless of your motivation, welcoming guests into your home requires the help of an experienced partner that you can trust. Coastal Shore Vacations wants to be your reliable partner – we strive to develop a relationship that fosters clear communication, transparency, and a successful venture for everyone. Whether you own a sprawling waterfront abode or a quaint charming cottage, we welcome you.
Here at Coastal Shore Vacations, we’ve earned the trust of vacationing guests and homeowners alike through our unwavering service. We’d love to show you our way, just as we have for many other Eastern Shore homeowners over the past decades. Our confidence comes from a foundation of family values, expertise, and relationships.
Family Values – As a 3rd generation company, you could say property management is in our blood. What started for the first generation as a career in the 1980’s, turned into the second generation founding her own company in 1999, and is now a thriving way of life for the third generation over 40 years later. Coastal Shore Vacations takes pride in remaining a steadfast family-owned business. When you join the Coastal Shore Vacations management program, you’re not just another sign-on. You’re part of the Coastal Shore family.
Expertise – Our leadership team, including the Owners and Senior Property Managers, have over 100 years of combined experience in the real estate and property management industries. We are licensed real estate agents/brokers that hold designations within our specialized fields. Many serve on local boards including the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce and Eastern Shore Association of Realtors. In addition, as members of the national Vacation Rental Managers Association, we adhere to a high set of standards that are set for professionals in our industry. All of this allows us to put our knowledge and voice to work for you.
Relationships – Building lasting partnerships based on value and trust is our top priority. It must be one in which we work together; after all, we are all working towards the same goals. Coastal Shore Vacations currently serves over 200 property owners here on the Eastern Shore, and we pride ourselves on building lasting relationships with each and every owner. It is not our goal to be the largest (in terms of inventory) company on the Shore; it is our goal to be the best. We accomplish this through personalized relationships that stand the test of time.

5-Star Guest Reviews
I really appreciate Coastal Shore Vacations. The office staff are easy to reach with questions, clear about rates + timing of payments, and ready to help. The Shady Side house fit our family really well. It was clean and the kitchen well stocked. The house has a comfortable vibe, with space for our big group of adults + 4 children to relax, sleep, cook meals, and eat all together on the big back porch. -The Elfstroms
Fantastic experience from initial inquiry to checkout. Great communication, accurate property listing, very clean and well equipped. Our family has been renting properties for over 19 years through several different companies. To say that our Coastal Shore experience was among the best that we’ve had would be an understatement. The little extras that make you feel appreciated and welcome upon arrival were a tremendous touch and kicked off our stay in an unexpectedly kind way. We will be looking forward to our next stay with Coastal Shore Vacations! -The Wrights
Upon our arrival at A ‘Teague of Our Own, we found lovely welcome bags waiting for us from both the owners and Coastal Shore Vacations, and that was only the beginning of a perfect week. The house was comfortable, clean, well stocked, and centrally located. Everything has been taken care of so guests can relax and enjoy all that Chincoteague has to offer. -The Pickles
The layout of this home was absolutely perfect for my family. There was clear and concise communication throughout the entire process, the customer service has been great. We will definitely be back next year! -The Robinsons
Blue Pointe Bayside is our favorite house of all times (and we have been to many). This was probably our 5th or 6th time there. The house is well-appointed, nice decor, comfortable beds and furniture, and the kitchen is equipped beyond everything you could possibly need. Coastal Shore Vacations is a great property management company. They communicate with the customer just the right amount (reminders, check in occasionally). They always make you feel like they are there for you. Payment process, check in/out is smooth. House was clean and in excellent shape. -The Ferretti-Acetos
