The Spotlight on The Ocean Key Virginia Beach Resort

Relaxed Resort Vibes by the Beach – Perfect for Music Lovers

Modern and laid-back, The Ocean Key Virginia Beach Resort puts you just one block from the Atlantic Ocean and only 1.5 miles from the heart of downtown Virginia Beach. This all-suites resort offers a home-away-from-home feel with fully equipped kitchens, separate living areas, and flat-screen TVs — ideal for winding down after a high-energy concert night.

Why Concert-goers love it

This resort’s location makes it easy to get to major music venues in Virginia Beach, yet it’s far enough from the noise to promise a peaceful night’s sleep. With a convenient check-in at 4:00 PM and suite-style accommodations, it’s a great base for groups or solo fans arriving early or staying late. Plus, having a full kitchen means midnight snacks or post-show meals are always an option.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends who want to stay together and cook breakfast in the morning
Solo travelers attending a dream concert and wanting space to unwind
Couples planning a weekend escape with music and beach time
Fans looking for a quieter space to recharge after the show
Budget-conscious music lovers who want value and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While the resort features its own on-site restaurant, the real perk is the in-suite kitchen with a microwave and dishwasher — ideal for late-night leftovers or cooking up a quick meal. Plenty of local dining spots are within walking distance along Atlantic Avenue. Breakfast options are close by and flexible for those who sleep in after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

You’re in a prime spot to enjoy the Virginia Beach Boardwalk nightlife. Bars, live music spots, and beachside lounges are just a short walk or ride away. Prefer to stay in? The resort’s game room and hot tub make for a low-key nightcap.

What People Say

Guests love the spacious suites, especially the separate living and dining areas that feel more like an apartment than a hotel. Many mention the location near the beach and boardwalk as a major highlight, and families and groups appreciate the full kitchen and parking spot included.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor is a bit dated in places, but most agree the comfort and space more than make up for it. The 10:00 AM check-out can feel early after a late night, so plan accordingly.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting a roomy, relaxed stay just minutes from downtown Virginia Beach and steps from the ocean, The Ocean Key Virginia Beach Resort hits all the right notes.

Elizabeth, Virginia Beach, visiting 5th Street Beach Mon, 17 April 2023

I made reservations two months before and requested an Oceanside room. I was told they would add a note to my reservation and it wouldn't be a problem. I also called the day before to be sure I was getting an Oceanside room and was told yes and that they also see the note on my reservation. I did not get an oceanside room!

Liked: The room size.
Disliked: The elevator.

It was okay, could’ve definitely...

Liked: It was okay. The jacuzzi and the pool was fun, beds were super comfortable. The cooling unit was amazing considering how hot it’s been. The balcony was nice.
Disliked: The hotel is outdated and dirty. Room wasn’t the cleanest and hair was found in the bathroom. The hallways had horrible smells, and stains all over the floor it wasn’t presentable. The elevators were so slow and always crowded so me and family often had to wait to get on. Parking was tight and small it was a nightmare trying to park. Also you can hear fighter jets over the hotel every day which was annoying and I saw a drone hovering over my head while standing on the balcony which was strange. The walls are super thin, you can hear what the neighbors are doing next door and I’m sure they can hear you. Overall, it wasn’t worth the $$. I definitely won’t return.

False Advertisement- Stealing with selling...

Liked: What was advertised to get me to pay $900.00 to be put in a small standard room that was not clean.
Disliked: The fact I was deceived into thinking booking.com sold me a Superior Suite with Sea View and put us in a standard room with parking lot view and charged my card Superior Room Sea View price
