The Historic Cavalier Hotel and Beach Club Autograph Collection

Beautiful renovated resort, my AC in my room broke several times, they ended up moving my room. However. Kiara and Solano were outstanding in helping me with the logistics and making sure I was taken care of. You have some fantastic girls taking care of your customers. Love the renovations and the location. Thank you, Desmond for your assistance with the repair. And thank you again to the team for making something miserable into a tolerable situation!

I can’t say enough good things about Kiara at the front desk. From the moment we arrived, she went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special. She helped me countless times, even when I made mistakes with my room arrangements, and she handled everything with incredible patience, kindness, and professionalism.

She not only helped fix things in the moment, but also took the time to explain everything so I wouldn’t make the same mistakes next time. Her willingness to help and make sure we had the best experience truly stood out. She even helped make our stay extra special with an upgrade, which meant a lot as we were celebrating my wife’s birthday.

Kiara genuinely helped make this trip memorable. She didn’t just do her job, she made us feel welcomed and taken care of. People like Kiara are what make a hotel experience exceptional. She is a huge asset to the team, and we are grateful for everything she did to make our visit so special.

Liked everything very much except the Hours opening closing of bars/restaurants. Closing the lobby bar at 10 is frustrating. And the Raleigh Room closed a bit earlier than stated 11p

The location, the beach club, restaurants. The staff was great and room was wonderful.

The hotel has a serious problem—bedbugs! I woke up in the morning covered in bites from these insects. Take a look at the attached photos.

The Cavalier Hotel on the surface is great. BUT we booked a Heritage one bedroom suite. At check in they gave us Suite 202 and were told that it was a great room (we all have heard that before). We get to the suite. 202 and our view is the rooftop of indoor pool and HVAC stuff. Plus suite 202 is right above the Raleigh lounge. The noise from the crowds and music from the Raleigh lounge was awful so if you’re a light sleeper or want to go to bed early, do not accept this suite. Plus the four windows looking out on the roof and HVAC have see through shades and light pour in the morning; they need room darkening shades. The door into the bedroom won’t stay open. This suite has a large double vanity but only one sink and the open area below doesn’t have any place to store your toiletries.

The suite 202 at over $1,000 per night is not worth it. They should be honest at check in regarding the awful view and noise from below Raleigh lounge. We complained and asked to change, but supposedly nothing available (how many of us have heard that before?). The supervisor did supposedly gave us a $100 credit for our troubles.

Would I stay here again? Probably not (definitely not in suite 202). I’m a loyal Marriott Bonvoy member and even being placed in this room was very disappointing.

We had to move rooms after we found mold over our bed. Wife had a headache every morning. In the room they moved us to, we had no hot water for hours in the morning. The staff the entire time were lazy, passive aggressive, and apathetic.

When I was asking about a couple of charges when I checked out, the gal decided to tell me, completely off topic, that engineering could not find any mold in the room I moved out of.

I asked her what the point of that comment was, besides to call me a liar, and she just smirked and said “just letting you know.”

Becca has HORRIBLE service and the food is mid.

Hospitality staff are anything but. Valets are awesome. Carlo and Brock are dope.

Sadie, was responsive and friendly. She also engaged in friendly conversation. The amenities at the beach club are second to none. I, for one, plan on taking advantage this summer.

Jessita was a very nice person she made my 9th birthday feel so special!!!❤️

Nespresso machine, comfortable bed, great bars and restaurants on site.

I have to take a few minutes and tell everyone one how wonderful this hotel and the staff is. I needed some R & R. From the room to the perfect Spa treatment. I could not have gotten anything better. From the moment I checked in with Nerisa at the front deck to my going home it could not have been any better. Nerisa understand what would help make my time there perfect. I will be back.

Very well maintained. You feel special being there.

Stunning! Pool is incredible in all weather! Beautiful and lots of history to learn!

My wife and I spent last evening on the lawn of The Cavalier, sipping champagne under that golden sunset. We started wondering aloud—were these two hotels always blocking the view? That’s when a gentleman in an impeccably tailored suit strolled by. (Seriously, the fit was GQ-level—my wife couldn’t stop noticing how sharp it looked, maybe I should start hitting the gym) as he walked by and greeted us I half-joking, and asked if he knew the backstory.
Turns out he’s Dean, and he didn’t just answer, he launched into this passionate, effortless history lesson. Built in 1927, the Cavalier was saved from demolition by a local guy who’d grown up in Virginia Beach. He poured his own money in, rallied investors, even got state help to gut and rebuild it from the inside out—keeping every original charm while making it shine again. Dean described the Navy taking it over in the thirties and forties, turning it into a radioman and officer school during WWII, stables turned barracks and all. He told it like he lived it, zero notes, pure fire.
We were hooked. Then another couple plopped down, asked him to repeat it, and he did, same energy, no shortcuts. It wasn’t just facts. it was pride, like the place was family. We’ve stayed here before, but this random chat? Made it unforgettable. The view’s gorgeous, the bubbly’s perfect, but that Fire side chat turned a quiet night into something we’d tell friends about.

Beautiful property that feels like you’re in an old Hollywood movie. Impeccably clean and out suite was exceptional.

My wife I was celebrating our anniversary and we loved everything about our stay at the Historic Cavalier Hotel and Resort.
