In What Part of Virginia Beach Should I Stay?

Virginia Beach has many different sections, and one is sure to be perfect for what you want.

The Boardwalk

If you want to stay close to the excitement as well as the sun and surf, the boardwalk is the area for you. Virginia Beach's famous three-mile stretch of boardwalk is backed right up against one of the most beautiful developed beaches in the United States, and lined on the other side with bars, nightspots, recreation areas, shops, and restaurants of all types. If you stay on the boardwalk, you can walk to many of the most popular attractions in Virginia Beach, or you can spend days working on your tan out on the beach.

Hell's Point Golf Course Area

The Hell's Point Golf Course is widely acknowledged as one of the best in the country, but it is also in the quieter southern part of Virginia Beach, with easy access to some of the nicer and quieter beaches in the area. There is also great accessibility to many of the area wetlands and hiking trails, for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts. If your idea of a vacation is a little golf and a lot of sun, a vacation rental near Hell's Point might be the perfect answer for you.

Williamsburg

If you have kids, or if your tastes run more toward history, consider staying in or near Williamsburg. It is one of the largest living history museums in the United States, and it is fascinating. Imagine being able to see how the original settlers lived, eat the same foods, and buy products created right there. You can stay in a rental nearby, or you can even stay inside Colonial Williamsburg, in one of the rooms built into the many shops and structures of the town. If your tastes run to historical immersion, this is an ideal choice.

Downtown Norfolk and Ghent

With an active city revitalization program transforming it, the city of Norfolk is no longer just a place to go if you have business with the military. You will find Waterside Market fantastic for shopping, nightlife, eating, and just watching people, or you can take water transport to many nearby areas. On the other hand, you can walk the buzzing streets to see all the historical buildings, museums, and city life. Ghent is a major arts community, the place to go around Virginia Beach if you want to find great new artwork, see plays by up and coming playwrights and actors, or hear some of the hottest music in great bars. Norfolk is also an educational center, boasting several major colleges and universities.
