I don’t think our room was cleaned to the best of their ability. The sheets were super wrinkly as if they sat for days unfolded. We found someone else’s passport by the nightstand. The bathroom had someone’s else personal soap and loofah. The soap, shampoo and conditioner was not refilled. To add, the shampoo wasn’t even shampoo, it was body wash. The sofa beds were horrible and I’m not being dramatic saying that the floor was more comfortable. And to put the cherry on top, when I asked for extra towels at the front desk, the lady asked a fellow coworker, who instructed her that the towels were on the third floor. The lady proceeded to say with a face “I’m not going up to the third floor for some towels.” I didn’t get towels until later that night. The staff were unpleasant and unkind which made it feel unwelcoming. So yeah, worst stay ever.

Hotel smelled fine until our last day but thats not hotels fault someone just made the entire 1st floor stink. I got exactly what I wanted right on the water ocrean front view with balcony for cheap.

Rooms were filthy, our door looks like the cops busted it down and wouldn’t shut! Front desk gave our room keys to a stranger and they walked into our room thank god we were inside at the time! Turned the lights on to use the restroom at night and there was a roach going across the bathroom floor! Asked three days in a row for towels before getting clean ones! The say at aqua vista was just horrible and will never go back!!! And to add the one bed was broke and one elevator for 7 floors once again never will go back

I have to admit I was a little nervous because of some of the reviews. I was so pleasantly relieved that my room was wonderful. Was it dated? Somewhat yes. Do I care if a few scratches were on the furniture? NO ! Do I care about microwave or having a fridge? Do I care about clean floors, clean bathroom, clean linen with comfortable mattress ?Of course I DO and Aqua Vista DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Was the stairwell a bit sandy and dirty? Who gives a rip! It’s the beach. Where I spend my leisure time outside of the sands and where I shower and lay my head matters and that was excellent. The mattress was just as nice as when I stayed at beautiful resort in Cabo. The staff very nice and helpful. Ice machine always had ice, everything clean even if dated. Floors kept clean in hallways, entry( where it MATTERED).THANKYOU for very nice stay, beautiful views and just a pleasant environment.

Sad to say my stay was not good. I was moved to 3 different rooms because 1st room the toilet did not flush, I was moved to a 2nd room with stained sheet and bath rags, 3rd and final room because they were all sold out I had to clean doodoo off the outside of the toilet bowl myself. I've been trying out to reach the Gm for over a week with no success. I hate that I came all the way from Georgia to Virginia Beach to be treated this way. I wouldnt recommend this hotel to anyone.

After our original reservation with another hotel was canceled as we were half way to the destination, this is where we were placed. Was definitely a downgrade.
The elevator was extremely slow. The lamp in our room would blink every time we turned it on. The fridge didn’t have a freezer. The room still had pistachio shells on the floor and balcony from the previous people. The balcony was small and the AC unit exhaust was right on the balcony.
The bed was at least comfortable.

A crab crawled out of the sink drain, the shower handle was broken but maintenance fix that right away, there was sand all over the floor. We didn’t have any shower towels and toilet paper used to where it was almost gone. The front desk was very hospitable and helped get clean towels and fresh toilet paper.

Nice hotel, amazing location. Staff was welcoming and helpful. The only downside was how clean the room was. Towels and bed were clean, shower as well. The desk chair and shower carpet were stained. For the price, it was ok. Ocean front is a must. I would probably go back there if I go back to Virginia Beach.

The place was ok overall. It was close to the beach at walking distance to the beach. Very convenient in that aspect. Towels were a bit overused and were off-white. The only problem was the elevator, very slow. We use the stairs to the 4th floor in most times.

The King bed Suite with 2 balconies was great! The view of the beach and boardwalk was sweet. The room could've been cleaner and wouldve appreciated a rug to leave the sand and dirt at the door. We booked the place for the convenience of the location which was a prime spot and close to a lot of restaurants and stores! Wish the water pressure in the shower was better- it's one of the vacation things I always hope for.

I booked my room a year in advance and set it up to pay at the hotel. A few days before our check in day, I sent a message on hotels.com site inquiring about parking. I received a message back and in that message, I was informed that I needed to pay for my rooms asap or they will be cancelled. I responded to the message telling them that I was under the impression that I was to pay at the hotel the day I checked in. I never got a response so I called the hotel and asked to speak with the manager. The front desk clerk to old me that she went home but she will give her a message to call me back. I never got a call back so I called again and was told that my rooms were good and still available but the manager was in a meeting. Once again I was told that I would receive a call back but I never did. On the day that we were scheduled to check in I received a call from the clerk stating that the manager told him to call me and inform me that if I didn’t pay now, my rooms would be cancelled. I was extremely upset. I paid for my rooms but once we got to the hotel we were told that check is at 4pm. They gave us parking passes to park but once we got there, the parking lot was full. We had to wait to get a spot. The parking was so tight that when I tried to move away from a car to avoid getting hit, my whole right side of my car was scratched. Then ay 4pm we were told only one room was ready. They never informed us when they others would be ready. I had to keep coming to check until 6pm

When we arrived i was surprised by being told i didn't’ have an assigned room until i arrived! And it was the last one! Next we were told we had to park across Atlantic Ave behind the stores in and open lot. To which there was no parking available! So then we were given a pass for a hotel next door and we were treated terrible!
The room was dirty! The shower had hair all over it! Obviously the very young girl dis the bare minimum to get by! The ice makers didnt work either! The mini fridge didnt work and the toilet didnt flush the handle was broke. Someone needs to spend money and update the hotel. Also clean it! The tile on the pool was falling apart. VERY RUN DOWN

my husband, me & 2 kids stayed 5 days. We were supposed to check in at 4 pm and couldn’t get into our room until almost 6. We came from a few hours away and we did get there early. And every time we went to check in from 330 till almost 6 they kept telling us they were cleaning our room give it 30 min but when we checked in our room was FILTHY. It didn’t look like anyone had dusted ever, the common areas were disgusting and filthy. The staff was no help at all. They would not bring us towels, toilet paper or anything that we needed. We had to go to Walmart and buy bath towels to use. The pool was so disgusting. I couldn’t let my children in it. But there was one gentleman named Daniel and a young black girl that cleaned the whole time we stayed there and they were the most helpful out of everyone there and by far the hardest working if it wasn’t for them, we probably would have switched hotels. To be fair the staff was at a disadvantage. They need to hire more help. They didn’t have any clean linens to pass out and that was not on the staff that was on management for not having enough people to keep the laundry done. We were told that there was one laundry person for that entire hotel. But even the manager did not seem very eager to help us get into our room and throughout that week, we spoke to most of the guest that we’re staying there around our room and they had the same experience no towels no toilet paper they got checked in late as well. Don’t stay here!!

I wasn't happy with the service; we had booked a room with an ocean view, but there was only one woman at the front desk handling a huge crowd. She left me standing there waiting while she tried to attend to everyone else and me at the same time. On top of that, there were no extra towels or toilet paper, and there were bugs—specifically bedbugs. They really need to fumigate, as it’s dangerous when you have children with you. I hope they take this feedback into account.

Hotel didn’t have enough towels and wash clothes for guests. I had four people in my room and we never got enough towels for everyone. Some days we wouldn’t have any. Our last four days we didn’t have any wash cloths. Also had to take my own trash out because room service wasn’t picking it up. Had to take it from the 5th floor to the 1st to empty trash cans. Parking lot is half a block away and it’s very tight and I drive a Chevy trax. Bathroom door knob was broken and wouldn’t lock.

We tried to check in early, rooms weren’t ready yet. No big deal. Until we came back at 6pm (check in is at 4) and had to WAIT for our room because it STILL was not cleaned and ready. We were not alone, nearly 15 people crowded the lobby in the same situation. The next day, the same thing happened to the new check ins. Also, the second day we were there I asked for clean towels. No housekeeper ever came to our room. I asked at 5:30pm, checked in at 6:30pm, and FINALLY we just left and came back and at 10PM the towels were STILL not delivered and when I asked the front desk for clean towels, the man rolled his eyes at me, and gave me 3 POOL TOWELS. I will never be booking this hotel again and I suggest you don’t either. They are very understaffed. The view from the room was nice. Oh and despite no dogs signs around the hotel, the entire first floor was filled with families with dogs and you can hear them barking the whole way up to the 3rd floor.

The floors were absolutely disgusting immediately turning the bottoms of your feet black. Towels and mattresses all had stains on them.

There’s literally one elevator that the staff and guests have to share making it clog up immediately and if you choose to take the stairs you’re greeted by a filthy hallway full of trash that smells like urine.

My family and I stayed at this hotel for three nights in June 2026. Below are the pros and cons of our stay:

Pros:
1. Convenient location; right next to the beach and shops
2. Affordable price
3. No bed bugs or roaches in the room we stayed in

Cons:
1. Bathroom floor wasn't swept; there were long stringy red hair strands and sand in many places
2. No shelving in the shower, or near it to put toiletries, such as shampoo or body wash
3. Pillow cases were stained
4. Water pressure from shower head was extremely weak
5. Shower curtain was too short allowing water to easily splash onto bathroom floor
6. Check-in was too long; took about 20 minutes to check in upon arrival
7. Parking lot is too small and located across the street, behind shops
8. Bathroom door lock was broken
9. TV started at the maximum volume of 100 each time it was turned on; there was no way to alter the settings to prevent this
10. Stairwell could use some extra care; there were broken steps and trash

Worst hotel I've ever stayed in. No staff, very late check ins. No blankets on beds. No towels or washcloths. The pool was disgusting there was literal food in it. Floors were swampy, soaked, spills everywhere and not cleaned the whole weekend I was there. Do NOT recommend at ALL. TRUST me!

Stay at this hotel if and only if you just need a bed to sleep in. Also, know that once you check in you are on your own regardless of your stay length. As in, no clean towels, no new toilet paper, nothing. You can ask and they will tell you they will send something or someone up. They are lying. I did appreciate coffee in the “lobby” in the morning and that, while the workers were not helpful, they also were never rude. Parking was free as well which we appreciated. Oh and “pool view” is a window to a hallway no actual windows unless you are beachfront. But hey, what can you expect for the price. I just would have appreciated towels and access to a broom to remove sand from my room.

Location is perfect. The building desperately needs new furniture and updates. However, the the room was clean. The balcony had lots of trash on it and the grassy area between the building and the ocean had a ton of trash that should be picked up. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We were there four nights, but nobody came to clean the room one time or take out trash. . We had to constantly ask for new towels and toilet paper and sheets.

There was absolutely nothing pleasant about this hotel except the beach and the pool. If you had a less expensive room, you were immediately treated as a second class customer including parking two blocks away. The shower had a large bug inside and dangerous screws sticking out around the back plastic panel that had obviously not been fully screwed in. Both of these scared our young granddaughter. The TV did not work the entire first night and a request to fix it was met with a statement that there was no maintenance person to fix it until the next day. When we asked about another room, the clerk was dismissive and said a move would require an additional charge. At our request, a maintenance person came the next day to look at the offending screws while we were at the beach. Somehow that person managed to lock the door from the inside. It took the staff a least an hour to figure out that conundrum while we waited in the hallway in wet swim suits. We were not provided adequate towels and washcloths. One of the ads for this hotel stated there was a free breakfast; but that had been discontinued. Our room was totally outdated and had bathroom fixture colors straight out of the last mid-century. The negative attitude and dismissiveness at the front desk made everything much worse. To sum it all up, we cannot recommend that anyone stay at this hotel.

Room was booked months in advance when I arrive to check in the wait time took forever and when I finally got to the room, I opened it and it had not even been clean from the last day then the representative said they were going to see if someone can clean it, which they said no one could, and then called the manager, who said they were all sold out, and there were no other rooms available at their other hotel either. I had to clean my entire room, stripped the bed wash the shower floors, sinks counters, clear the trash out and make beds. The place stunk and they took forever. They offered me no money for cleaning the room for them even though they had a janitor who was there all night bringing me supplies.

This is the 2nd time that I have stayed at this hotel. Last year was great, this time it was awful. Check in was 4pm and we arrived at 8pm, the room was not ready, this was after waiting in line for 30 mins to get checked in. When I asked the front desk when it would be ready all I got was eye rolling then a room was ready. The elevator was broken so we had to take all of our things up three flights of stairs. Granted, yes things brake, but why wouldn't the hotel staff help guests with taking things up the stairs. We had to ask for towels every night and on Saturday evening they didn't have any, but after they got washed, they would bring them to us. They never did.

We waited for over 1 hour just to get a room and the manager had to go clean rooms. The sheets were stained, soap and body wash were empty, 3 people were only given 2 towels and when we asked for more we were told they were being washed and never got extra, the elevator was really slow, the front entrance hallway and elevator smelled like weed. Just all over not a great experience. Handicap room had a low toilet without any grab bars or anything to help get off of it. The TV did not work and there was stickiness on the top of the dresser like it was never even cleaned. I will not return to this hotel again due to the very poor experience. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, ever.

Extremely unsatisfied and will never be returning to aqua vista resorts.

First off, this hotel was not nearly as bad as some of the terrible reviews make it out to be. It's okay -- just don't expect the Ritz-Carlton.

The good: You can't beat the location. It's right on the boardwalk and just minutes from the pier, The hotel was mostly clean, no bugs, cold air-conditioning, comfortable beds, and hot water. These are the most important factors for me when staying at the beach. There is coffee available in the lobby.

The okay: We always had a place to park. The parking lot for the Aqua Vista is about half a block west from the hotel. However, we were not there during the peak of peak season. The parking slots are really tight and I can imagine there being issues finding a space during the worst of the worst of the summer.

The bad: Housekeeping is really spotty. There were a couple of days where it felt like a battle to get my trash emptied and towels changed. On one day they were not changed at all despite multiple requests. We eventually got towels delivered after being told that there were no towels and they were in the wash. Note to management: Buy more towels. Seriously! Towels shouldn't be in short supply, especially at an ocean front hotel.

I will say that I think it is a luck of the draw when it comes to room quality. When we first arrived, we were given a room that didn't have the linens replaced on the beds. The room we were moved to was much nicer than the first (same category).

We got a beach front room for 4 days and it was great priced. With that in mind, the hotel was older, and a bit run down, but still clean and pet friendly. You wouldn't know that pets were allowed there as rooms were clean, and nice, for the price we paid. If you want a good inexpensive stay, with a great view, and close to stores like 7-11, Dairy Queen, Walmart, plus a great middle area of the boardwalk, then this place has all of that. Outdoor pool was just open the day we arrived, so a bit cold, but cleaned and nice. Vending machines there in the hallways, but no breakfast. Just coffee in the lobby and pretty generic at that, but you are very close to sweet shops and places to get coffee out. We had a wonderful time and we would definitely stay again!! Our dog liked it too!

Customer service was a complete wreck. Staff “Mark” was very unprofessional. I’m a teacher and all that but the way he carried himself at the front desk was ridiculous and inappropriate. I have no intentions of staying at this hotel ever again. Rooms were nasty and out of date. Furniture was old and mattress needed to be burnt or thrown away. No closets. For close to $200 nightly. Mark would not contact the General Manager knowing that I had an issue with my room. Mark told me that he did not know what time the General Manager would be in. Keep in mind I was checking out a day early because of the issue in my room. Mark give me a business card with the office number up there knowing that the General Manager was not there. And the gmail had the wrong address up there. OMG!!!!!!!! I was just through with his prideful ways. I hope that something would be done so others will not be treating with this disrespect the way I was.

I reserved a 1 bedroom deluxe and by the time I got there they had downgraded me that day by message and still charged me the deluxe room rate of $923 while the family that was traveling with me paid $562 for the same room that they downgraded me to. They will not give me the money back for the difference. I had to take the room because I had traveled so far. The next morning I came downstairs and they told me I owed $140 more for the room that they downgraded me from even though I didn’t get it. No, I did not pay that extra fee. The rooms weren’t that clean and the staff was smoking marijuana in the supply closet next to my room.

I love that this hotel was a great value in the off-season, and I loved being able to go out on my balcony to see the beach. A few down-sides:
1) There is a nightly resort fee that I hadn't heard about (even in the off-season when the pool was closed)
2) The parking is about a half-block away (although there is temporary check-in parking on site)
and 3) The room is BRIGHT in the morning! There are not darkening curtains, since there is a balcony door. I was awake a 6:00 AM! Ugh. I recommend taking a darkening eye mask if you want to sleep in!

The room was clean, and the staff were friendly. However, while we paid extra money to get a beautiful view of the beach, what we got was a room at the ground floor with a balcony facing the beach. So, although we technically got a room facing the beach, it was not worth the extra money we paid for as it was the ground floor. And sadly, they said they could not shift us to some other room at the upper floors. Other than that, I think the sound of the elevator was a bit disturbing. But overall, the experience was nice.
