Beautiful condo at north end of Virginia Beach boardwalk
The Ocean Beach Club resort is definitely one of the prime hotels along the boardwalk. It is modern, clean, and the fact that it includes a kitchen is such an advantage over the many hotels along the strip that only provide a hotel room on the beach. Several grocery stores are located within a 5-minute drive from the condo, and, of course, souvenir/beach shopping, as well as affordable and delicious restaurants, run parallel to the boardwalk, right behind the hotel. The hotel provides many amenities for families to "play", including several pools, a game room, lounge areas, and a delicious restaurant with happy hour cocktails and a gorgeous view of the beach. I have stayed at several hotels along the strip, and this is, by far, my favourite.
The only set-back which was a little disappointing, was the fact that this particular rental is situated at the street (west) end, not the ocean-front (east) end, of the hotel. In the past, my family has always stayed at a full, ocean-front condo with balcony, and the ad for this condo was not clear about how much "beach view" we would receive. The room, although a corner room (which is nice for more windows), looks out mainly onto the street and onto the side of the hotel. When we arrived, we were placed in a north-facing unit, which literally looked onto the roof of a parking garage across the street in one direction, and over the air conditioners of the hotel in the other direction, as well as onto the balconies of about 20 other units next to us. The "beach view" was really just a smidgen, if you craned your neck out over the tiny balcony of the unit. I was dismayed at the time, so I asked the front desk if they could arrange a different room for us. Although the condo must remain at the street end of the hotel, the manager was very kind and moved us to a south-facing unit, which provided much more view of the ocean, and did not stare onto the balconies of a neighbouring hotel, but rather over the entrance to the beach, where a live band played each evening. This side of the hotel was also much more sunny. I was very grateful to the staff of the hotel for this accommodation.
Overall our stay was very pleasant and we enjoyed our vacation very much!
