Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Virginia Beach (Oceanfront)
I asked for help in finding a Christmas Eve church service. The employee made a note of my request, and when I walked by the desk the next time, he had an answer for me. I was given good recommendations for local restaurants where I could eat. The breakfast offerings were plentiful and tasty.

Hyatt Place Virginia Beach / Oceanfront
We were very impressed with this hotel! Check was smooth, the hotel is clean and the room was clean and spacious. Very comfortable sleep. The hotel is right off the beach so the sights were beautiful! Great location - in walking distance or short drive to most experiences. Can’t wait to visit in ...
