The Spotlight on White Marlin Inn - Virginia Beach

Budget-Friendly Beachside Base for Music Fans

Modern convenience meets classic beach motel charm at the White Marlin Inn - Virginia Beach. Located just a 5-minute stroll from the Virginia Beach oceanfront, this no-frills inn offers essential comforts like free WiFi, in-room microwaves and refrigerators, and a 24-hour front desk—perfect for music lovers who need a place to crash after an epic night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

With top venues and the Virginia Beach Convention Center just minutes away, this motel is an ideal spot for catching live shows without the hassle. The location is close to the action but tucked away just enough to offer a quieter place to recover post-concert. Flexible check-in at 3:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM means you won’t be rushed, even after a late night. Plus, easy access to rideshares and walkable nightlife make getting around a breeze.

Solo travelers chasing their favorite artists
Couples planning a fun beach-and-concert weekend
Fans who want a quiet place to unwind after the encore
Budget-conscious music lovers who’d rather spend more on tickets than lodging

Food and Drink Options

While the White Marlin Inn doesn’t have on-site dining, its prime location means you’re within easy walking distance of late-night eats, casual diners, and beachfront bars. With a microwave and mini-fridge in every room, it’s also easy to bring back leftovers or stash your favorite snacks for a post-show snack attack.

Nightlife Options

Being so close to the oceanfront means you're never far from buzzing bars, casual pubs, and live music spots. Whether you want to keep the night going or just grab a nightcap, you’ll find plenty of options nearby. For a more chilled vibe, there are laid-back beach bars and lounges offering local brews and ocean breezes.

What People Say

Guests love the location—just a short walk to the beach and close to both concert venues and the Convention Center. Many appreciate the value for money and the convenience of having basic amenities like WiFi, air conditioning, and mini appliances. The 24-hour front desk also gets kudos for making late arrivals a breeze.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that the rooms are fairly basic and could use a bit of updating. Think of it as more of a place to rest your head than a luxury retreat—but for the price and location, many guests say it’s a fair trade-off.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, no-fuss hotel close to Virginia Beach’s live music scene, the White Marlin Inn hits all the right notes.

At this hotel, there’s nothing...

Liked: Nothing I attempted to check in per my booking time and was met with locked and closed doors. I attempted to call the number listed on Google and got no answer. I ended up having to stay in a completely different hotel.
Disliked: If somebody would have been there to open the doors and check us in so we would not have had to have paid for another hotel and getting our money back would be fantabulous since we never stayed here

This place needs to be...

Liked: Absolutely nothing.
Disliked: The floors were completely dirty, filled with candy. The room full of this disgusting smell of cigarette smoke, it made it difficult to even stay in there. Brown stains and footprints on the bed. The toilet seat looked like it hadn’t been washed in years!! Mold on the walls and doors. There was also semen on top of the bed and bed frame. There were drugged people outside who had no shame in looking at kids. Absolutely atrocious and disgusting.
