If you are using Mono for Andriod. We can run the app as usual in Visual Studio by choosing

Debug > Start Without Debugging (or Start Debugging to run with the debugger attached).

or Simply press F5 in your “Mono for Android” Visual Studio project.

Visual Studio will launch the Select Device dialog Selecting Start emulator image in this dialog and it will open a list of available emulators:

enter image description here

When we choose the emulator we want to run and then click OK, Mono for Android launches the emulator. After it starts up, the emulator will appear in the Running devices list

From the Android documentation:

The recommended way to develop an Android application is to use Eclipse with the ADT plugin...

Added new Solution based on the comments

vs-android is intended to provide a collection of scripts and utilities to support integrated development of Android NDK C/C++ software under Microsoft Visual Studio.

Currently vs-android only works under Visual Studio 2010. Earlier versions lack the MSBuild integration with the C/C++ compilation systems.

The only required component is the Android NDK. Neither Cygwin, Java, nor the full Android SDK are needed to compile and link C/C++ code.
