About this place

Discover the Inlet at First Light. FLOHOM 11 | Rudee Awakening ✨ Welcome to FLOHOM 11, a coastal floating tiny home designed for two, docked at the Virginia Beach Fishing Center on historic Rudee Inlet. The beach is a short walk away. The boardwalk is just beyond that. And in the morning, before any of it wakes up, you're already on the water with coffee, salt air, and the first light crossing the inlet. The interior is compact and coastal. A sunlit living area with a sofa, Sonos speaker, and 40" smart TV. A…

We had such an amazing stay on this houseboat! It was the perfect place to celebrate our 4-year wedding anniversary. The hosts truly thought of everything we could possibly need, making our stay comfortable and stress-free from the moment we arrived. The location was fantastic—we were able to walk to the oceanfront for a wonderful dinner and discovered a fun local bar in the marina area that made the experience even more memorable. Staying on the water was such a unique experience, and we loved every minute of it. We highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for something a little different, relaxing, and close to everything. We would absolutely stay here again!

La péniche correspondais exactement à l’annonce. Tout étais proche du Airbnb. Et le logement étais super propre.

This place was amazing! Located on the inlet a short walk from the oceanfront and plenty of restaurants. We stayed in the smaller Flohome and was perfect for a couple. We had a private chef come cook for us and had dinner on the top deck of the boat. The views were amazing and it was very quiet and peaceful. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a different experience. Thanks!

Stayed here for a peaceful 21st birthday get away with my boyfriend and it was everything we hoped for and more! Perfect walking distance from stores, restaurants, and the beach! Along with my personal favorite the patio on top was perfect for some sun bathing or even just relaxing at night time! The host was communicative and very helpful. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Super cute place right on the water! It's within walking distance of the beach and a few restaurants while still feeling homey. The houseboat was clean and spacious, and the rooftop was definitely the highlight. The only two downsides were the communication and checkout experience. We received a number of text messages, each with a lot of information, which could be simplified by consolidating everything into one place (such as the guest website). Additionally, as we were leaving before the 10:00 a.m. checkout time, the host was already on the property waiting, and a maintenance crew member boarded the houseboat almost immediately after we stepped off. The host didn't acknowledge us or speak, which made the interaction feel a bit awkward. Combined with the maintenance crew getting started right away, it made us feel rushed and uncomfortable, even though we were leaving before the scheduled checkout time. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the unique experience of staying on the water.

Flohom’s boathouse was immaculate to say the least. The hosts were very informative and the check-in process information with parking details was extremely helpful to include a YouTube video identifying the exact location after registering your reservation. We stayed for 1 night and wished it was for 1 week immediately upon simply seeing the spotless boathouse and subsequently when feeling the peaceful sway. Whether you were tanning on the rooftop by the fire pit or relaxing in bed, the oceanfront view was unforgettable. This location made my 40th birthday in my hometown memorable. Notably, when departing the owner(s) of Pattersons and Sons cleaning company greeted us to make sure we enjoyed our stay and had everything we needed, which made the entire experience worth every dime. The owner even greeted guests staying at an adjacent Flohom boathouse to make sure they had everything they needed and reminded them to reach out if they needed anything. Thank you! We can’t wait to return!

What a beautiful spot to relax and call home for a few days! We came to attend a music festival but started each morning and ended each night on the beautiful upper deck. The owners were so responsive and the space had everything you would want or need and more. A beautiful space to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary.

This was our first time booking with Flohom on Airbnb. What an incredible experience. Felt like Airbnb Premium! Every aspect of the place is designed as a “away from home” home. Everything you need to host, and enjoy your time was there. I mean serving trays, clean dishes, extra propane, warm wool blankets. The list goes on. The owners have really gone above and beyond, exceeding expectations by far. The only negative we had during our stay was high winds one day. Got very dizzy and nauseated, but even after that night we enjoyed our evening once the water calmed down again. Take that motion sickness warning seriously!

This place is hidden gem. I loved staying on the water in a beautiful houseboat. It was immaculate and the bed was super comfy. There was an issue that was out of Lynne’s control. The city was digging and the shore power’s breakers tripped. Lynne showed up immediately and that clever woman figured everything out in seconds. The crew is kind, quick to respond and I felt safe. I loved I could park by the boat. Thanks for hosting me. I will be back. Thanks Lynne!!
