10/10 Excellent
"Great location with good restaurant choices. Away from the "touristy" part of Virginia Beach but not far if you want to do to the boardwalk. Hotel coffee area is cute. My only complaint would be that the foosball and shuffleboard are also in that area so it can get loud if you are trying to work or read."

10/10 Excellent
"The place was great! I loved the outdoor areas and our room was very spacious. The location is right on the beach and it made it easy to go from the beach to the pools. The balcony was nice and felt private. While we were there, the elevator broke. Then the only other one broke. The staff escorted people up and down the staff elevators and they were so nice - even when some guests weren’t. My only note had to do with the bathroom. It was a nice bathroom but the tub was a jet tub which made it difficult to get in and out with bad knees because it was so high. Also the toilet was very low. Don’t let that stop you from booking because this place was the best place we have stayed at Virginia Beach."
