This is such a great find- it quiet , clean and really attractive. The staff is wonderful and the owners Tina and Ernie are just great and so helpful. The outdoor saltwater pool is to die for and the hotel is right in the midlle of everything. Rooms are large and wifi is free. Love The Alamar!

Called based on great reviews online and had never been to Virginia Beach. Very friendly and cordial customer service on the phone and provided loads of helpful information about the hotel and the area. Upon arrival we fell in love with the hotel and the area. We were well attended to by the staff and the room was large, clean and there is also a coin operated laundry on the property that was nice to have available. We have a wonderful stay and will be back.

This is such a little gem of a hotel. The staff is wonderful and very helpful. They make you feel so welcome and the room was clean, attractive and spacious. We will definitely be back soon.

This is a great hotel with a friendly and helpful staff. Very clean attractive room, nice location and easy access to everything. They put together a nice golf package for us. This is our 4th stay at The Alamar and is has been consistantly great. We will be back.

This is a little gem of a hotel. Beautiful, great staff- very attentive and helpful with recommendations for things to do and restraurants. They referred us to a fabulous italian restraurant . Even made the reservations for us. Easy access to the beach and everything there is to do. Fishing peer is close, amusement park as well. Heated pool was wonderful. Prices are reasonable and we loved the room, Had a suite and is was immaculate. Hotel is nicely landscraped and very attractive. Enjoyed the observation decks - nice views and attractively done, We will definitely be back

No ice, pool not available, limited parking within premises, room was not cleaned first day of visit, refridgerator was filthy. General premises in state of maintenance. Alamar management has an indifferent attitude towards issues that we brought up, (i.e. no compromise, "it's not our problem ice machine doesn't work, and the pool pump is broken"). This hotel looks ok from a distance, a closer look provides a different view of hotel ownership not willing to invest into the property to maintain the basics.

We stumbled upon the Alamar at 9:30 one night after driving for 10 hrs. to get to Virginia Beach. The manager, Doug, was right there when we walked thru the door and had a room for us that was exactly where we wanted it. The place itself is in a very convenient location, walking distance to just about everything. The service was great, the staff very friendly, we couldn't ask for a nicer stay. We stayed for 2 days, then drove to No. Carolina, stayed a couple of days, then drove back up to Virginia and again stayed at the Alamar. Can't wait to come back in the fall.

Location is great. Near the boardwalk and shopping. The decor is in the 80s. Dark colors and wall paper. The bathrooms were updated. The kitchenette was stocked with everything needed to cook with. There was a furnace in one of the closets with a hole in that wall. All in all, the price was right, and they supplied clean white towels daily. We were told not to leave make-up on the towels or wash cloths or they would have to charge extra.

Upon arrival at approx. 3:30 p.m. there was no one there to check in. The office doors were locked. There was a group of us waiting to register. It was fortunate that we did have to wait. Upon checking out the premises we found a linen room in complete disarray, an equipment storage room same condition, and a laundry/kitchen room in despicable condition. Food left out, filthy pots, pans and dishes spread about. NOT GOOD. It was decided that no one would check in until some rooms were looked at. After more than a 2 hour wait, the manager arrived dripping wet with a surf board. He had been out surfing while we waited. If you run a hotel especially one touted as a resort then you should treat potential guests as though it were a resort. I will never know how or why AAA has given this dump a great rating.
