Great Place to Stay!
We have stayed at the Schooner for 15 stays for our annual Virginia Beach vacation. The Schooner is in a great location, at the South end of the beach away from everything - BUT stores, etc. are a short walk away or accessible via trolly. For the price, you can't beat the Schooner. Nothin' fancy, just the essentials with fully stocked kitchen and a good clean bed and fresh linens for a good nights sleep. Ocean front rooms allows for great sites of the ocean, ships, dolphins, boats, skate boarders, joggers and bikers, etc. This part of the beach is not congested like the rest is. The parking is limited but you can park across the road in an overflow parking lot. The staff has always been friendly. The only major problem that we ever had was with the rooms not always being ready when we would check in and we booked months in advance. I think that this could be easily fixed by proper scheduling of the housekeeping staff. We had had some minor things like no kitchen table for the kitchenette when we arrived and all we had to do is call the front office and it was taken care of timely. There is a safe in the room to lock up your valuables while you are at the beach. I think it is just a nice place to stay, especially for the money. Like I said, nothing fancy, but it is nice. I have stayed there for 15 years with my family. That should account for something. ENJOY!
