Brian, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was perfect for 4 friends staying together. Ample parking, quiet stay. Staff was so friendly and checked in to make sure we were doing okay. Saw a couple of nymph roaches, but honestly we weren't really bothered by it. Overall enjoyed our stay.
Elizabeth, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I wish we had better weather, but the walk to the beach was short and nice. The room was spacious and the little kitchenette was very nice. The carpet had some stains, but the sheets were clean and the modern lamps and bedside tables with ample plugs and USB A and USB C plugs was a nice bonus. Really liked the very clean and well stocked breakfast. The staff were happy and helpful and that made all the difference.

Collen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We've been back here every summer for 8 years. The beach is quiet and surounded by nature, the pool is tidy and good for families and the complimentary breakfast is great. If you are particular about your bedding, I recommend bringing your own blanket, it's very limited. And if you have food allergies, the breakfast offerings can be limited (especially wheat allergy) though that is pretty standard for basic hotel breakfast.

Maria, 2-night trip

My stay 10/23 - 10/26

Overall, this is a solid, basic hotel. The rooms were spotless, and I noticed the hallways and common areas were always well maintained. The staff was friendly and welcoming—one front desk member even offered helpful tips about local restaurants, which made my stay more enjoyable. The location is fantastic, just steps from the beach and conveniently close to everything in the tidewater area. The only area for improvement would be the breakfast experience. The food was good and provided a nice start to the day, but I noticed that about 20 minutes before breakfast was scheduled to end, the attendant began announcing the upcoming closure and started cleaning and sweeping. This approach felt a bit rushed and made it difficult for guests to finish their meals comfortably. It would be better if cleanup began after the official breakfast hours, so guests could enjoy their food and find a place to sit without feeling hurried. A more considerate cleanup schedule would definitely improve the overall experience.

8/10 Very good

They overbooked the room type I had booked and down graded me without prior notification; then refused to compensate price difference because we booked through a 3rd party. Staff wasn't that friendly about the situation.

We would go back.

Staff was very helpful. Room was nice enough furniture needed replaced couch was peeling. Bed was ok and we found extra blanket in closet. Location was great right in the beach. Dog park on property very convient. Breakfast area was cheery, clean and well stocked.
Cindy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We stayed for 5 days in one of the apartments. It was quiet and close to the beach. The beach was not crowded and water was clam. The room wasn’t the cleanest so we bought some cleaning supplies and a broom. And if you need cooking supplies you have to go to the office and get them.

Sandi, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We truly enjoyed our stay at Best Western Plus. Our room was very comfortable for us. We loved having a balcony. And we could bring our dog. They have a dog park area which is well kept up and very handy. The sunrises and sunsets were beautiful. The staff is super attentive and friendly. Shout out to Van who made our stay very pleasant. Definitely recommend for a nice laid back beach vaca!
