There are a lot options for remote access. You can briefly see them here.
I use nabu casa and I strongly suggest you to try it. It’s free for a month and the easiest way to get your remote access.
You don’t tell us which install method you used in the VM, but assuming HA OS:
After Nabu Casa the next easiest I’ve found is the Tailscale add-on.
