"Being right on the beach was super convenient and really pretty. Hearing and seeing the ocean from our balcony made this hotel a great stay. The staff were very nice and helpful and parking was very easy. The elevators were a bit slow and the hotel is a bit old, but overall it was very worth the price. There’s no food/snacks/restaurants on property, but there are plenty of options close by. Access to the really beautiful and well maintained beach could not easier. There is a small pool, and we heard kids enjoying it, but we didn’t partake. We also didn’t get a room with a hot tub…for next time!"

10/10 Excellent
"The rooms were clean, and the location was excellent—right on the beach! Our oceanfront room was amazing. We loved the balcony, and the beach and ocean views were absolutely beautiful. The area is very busy, but there are plenty of restaurants and food options within walking distance, along with lots of gift shops. You can also rent bikes to ride along the beach, which was a lot of fun. There were even fireworks on some nights, which was a nice bonus. There’s a Walgreens nearby if you need anything, and it’s also just a short drive to other stores and restaurants. At first, the staff didn’t seem very friendly, but once we spoke with them, they were polite and helpful. The breakfast was good for a hotel breakfast, and the staff did a great job keeping everything stocked and refilling the stations. It does get crowded closer to the 10:00 AM closing time, so I recommend going earlier to avoid the crowds. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely consider staying here again!"

Marjac Suites Virginia Beach Oceanfront

Marjac Suites Virginia Beach Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed in room 712 and want to start by praising the staff. The service from the employees is excellent—a true 10 out of 10. In particular, the person working the front desk was doing an amazing job taking care of all the guests checking in at that peak time. However, management urgently needs to hire more staff. Leaving just one person at the front desk during check-in hours causes long wait times, and people understandably lose their patience.Similarly, the housekeeping staff are incredibly kind and always do their absolute best with a smile. The real problem is that the company leaves them short-staffed, which directly affects the cleanliness of the hotel. The rooms were not properly cleaned: the beds, mattresses, and sofa bed have severe stains (including urine stains), the TVs are dusty, the fridge is dirty, the towels are soiled, and the shower curtain has mold. The kitchen was the worst part, as it still had leftover food from previous guests. The sofa bed looks so worn out and dirty that it looks like it was pulled out of the trash. I do not blame the cleaning staff at all; I blame the company for not hiring enough people to maintain the property.We stayed here 3 years ago, and compared to this year, the hotel's condition has deteriorated drastically. If they do not invest in proper upkeep right away, this place will be completely run down in a few years. It is deeply disappointing because this hotel has.amazing potential to attract tourists."
