Rather than hacking on a hosts file (which can break networking) I would setup aliases in your development environment that let you "launch site1" and it will open whichever site is aliased as 'alias site1='firefox vagrantip:port1' or something like that. The other alternative would be to use bridging instead of port forwarding, and then you can directly access any and all ports on your Vagrant machine via a dedicated IP on your system's subnet.
