Our group of twelve (eight adults and four children) had a day pass to relax and enjoy the sun at the bay and hang poolside at the VB Resort Hotel and Conference Center. The bay was abnormally rough and full of jellyfish (unavoidable) so we spent minimal time down on the sand. I can say, however, that the beach was easily accessible and clean, with a shower for easy clean up after our romp in the sand. Afterwards we hit the pool. The accomodations were exceptionally clean and well kept, with plenty of towels and lounge chairs for all. We enjoyed lunch on the patio, and upon staff recommendation took a trip on a nearby pirate ship (literally only five minutes away) which proved to be entertaining for all of the members of our group (ages 2 to 52). Our time at VBRHCC was too short!

My husband and I stayed at the Virginia Beach Resort Hotel in July to celebrate our one-year anniversary. We stayed in the penthouse suite which was absolutely wonderful. The carpet and furniture were all brand new like they had just remodeled it. The view was breathtaking! We dined at their restaurant, Tradewinds, and the food there was delicious! I love the crab cakes! We sat outside on the deck which overlooked the Chesapeake Bay, and was very peaceful. We visited the gift shop which was large and had a wide variety of gifts for all ages...and plenty of children's toys to keep them occupied. (although I do not have children). From the staff in housekeeping to the front desk, and all in between, I must say, were absolutely fantastic. I will definitely be back! Thank you for making my one-year anniversary wonderful and worry-free!

I have read the reviews of this resort before we arrived, so I had low expectations. But I was pleasantly surprised. The hotel is not as outdated as some reviewers said. Also the two rooms our parties used were very clean. In one of the rooms, one of the sofas had a stain on the custhion but that was about it. We didn't eat at the Tradewinds because it looked a little costly. However we did eat at a great restaurant across the street called Hot Tuna. The food was awesome - if you go try the Buffalo shrimp. So to sum it up, I've stayed at better and I've stayed at worst - but you can't beat the price - 1/2 off if you book it and use your Entertainment card.

My friends and I drove here to Virginia Beach for our first time all the way from Michigan. It was a long and tiring 12 hour drive and being that we arrived ahead of schedule (10am), we thought we would not be able to check in yet because check in was at 4pm. Jared at the front desk was very nice to us and got us in early! We were very appreciative because we ready to sleep. That evening, we had dinner in Tradewinds and LOVED the crabcake! The service was excellent too. We didn't know where all the "hot-spots" were so we asked the conceirge and she gave us names and directions of clubs and bars we could venture to. We had a great time at the Virginia Beach Resort Hotel. Our room was great, we enjoyed the indoor/outdoor pool, the restaurant, and the service. We would like to extend our thanks to housekeeping especially. Our housekeeper on the 5th floor really took care of us and I'm sure we'll be back.
