Looking for peace & quiet in Virginia Beach-suggestions?

My Husband %26amp; I-w/ no kids are contemplating a short 2 day trip there from Ohio next wk 6/10. Looking for a peaceful area on or very near the beach %26amp; good dining...any suggestions please. Thank you!!



Looking for peace %26amp; quiet in Virginia Beach-suggestions?


When I read your subject line I thought...well, it%26#39;ll have to be before peak time and mid week. And...it is:) We%26#39;re surprised when we get away just the two of us to have relative peace and quiet at the beach...meals alone in the outdoor extensions of boardwalk-front restaurants, etc.



Look up the restaurants along the left here that got good reviews.



You might rent a tandem bike - two seater one behind the other - for a romantic retro ride along the boardwalk, say, to Tautog%26#39;s which has bicycle parking and wonderful food. We like to eat on the old porch. (It%26#39;s not waterfront, though, but excellent food.)



You might like the general northern end past the mid section.



Get some sun, take a walk on the boardwalk so enjoy all the sites; bring binoculars to see the ships and sealife, maybe a kite for evening.

PS Are you in the mood for, say, Beach Spa Bed and Breakfast, a block or two from the beach?




thank you,any suggestions on a quiet place to stay on virginia beach? Want to be close to ocean %26amp; not far from golf-dont care so much about the nightlife scene at all...please help w/ accomodation suggestions thanks!




Well, the northern end is quieter, the Beach Spa B%26amp;B is very elegant and peaceful.



We also like Springhill Suites at the southern end around 9th. We haven%26#39;t been next door to the brand new Hampton Inn. You might look into that. Of course, you might enjoy a really peaceful time at the Springhill Suites%26#39; pool, cafe-side, sun all day (no building blocking it), water shooting out of the sides dramatically....and then that might be the day the kiddies want to run around it. You never know.



You might kayak, enjoy the newer Town Center, go to a stadium seating movie, visit the boardwalk attractions, including quaint museums in historic cottages...things that are not always the first choice of the masses so to speak so that you might have more quiet.



You might also consider Virginia%26#39;s outer banks....Sandbridge. It%26#39;s quiet, houses, no hotels and a drive to the boardwalk...but that%26#39;s what makes it private and peaceful.




thank you appreciate all the advice!!!!




The Chesapeake bay side of Virginia Beach is always peaceful and quiet. You can sit on the beach and really relax. Walk to the Pier Cafe in your flip flops for a delightful seafood lunch and drinks.
