Hotel is beautifully restored and well maintained and it has great amenities, most notably its beachfront pool and restaurant. Staff for the most part was excellent, with just a couple of exceptions. Restaurant was excellent, and daily events fun for those who chose to participate.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
My stay was only 15 hours and it was terrible. The room I was given was 50 degrees and the HVAC did not work. Rather than giving me a room (as I was in a hurry to get to a dinner) they insisted on sending an engineer. This took much time and he simply confirmed that it was broken. At this point I made Four calls to the front desk before I could get them to provide me with another room. The second room smelled like mildew but I was now late for an event and did not have time to again change rooms. I returned late in the evening and when walking in the carpet found that a 3 food area in diameter was sopping wet from a leak. I also found that one of the two sinks did not drain and actually had 3 inches of water in it. The next morning I discovered that the closet area also had wet floors and that all of my clothing now smelled like mildew. Prior to checking out I called the front desk and told them I wanted to speak to a manger at check-out. The manager was not pleasant and said the most they could do was waive the parking fee ($34 savings on a stay room rate of well over $500). At check out I was in a rush to get to a funeral and called later in the day. After three calls and messages, nobody ever got back to me to discuss how they could make things right.

25th Anniversary Get-away

We planned a special trip to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Our stay did not disappoint - the facility is beautiful, very clean, and the staff is amazing. We ate dinner and breakfast at Becca - food and service was impeccable. We enjoyed the Distillery tour and the history of the hotel is very interesting.
Distillery Tour and tasting.

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at this extraordinary hotel, which truly exceeded my expectations in every way. The opulent atmosphere evoked the grandeur of The Great Gatsby, with stunningly beautiful and immaculately clean facilities. The staff were exceptional, displaying impeccable manners, respect, and warmth. Our family had the trip of a lifetime, and I would eagerly return to relive the experience. Without a doubt, this hotel has set a new standard for excellence in my eyes.

Beautiful Property with excellent service.

Our stay was great, the people were friendly and inviting. The property was gorgeous and clean. The food was 5 stars, those parmesan truffle fries I could eat a keg of. All in all, a great stay, one improvement I would suggest would be to upgrade their linens (Bedding & Towels). They weren't bad per say just used past their prime. There were newer hand towels and wash cloths, but the bath towel felt like sandpaper.

Sophistication in Va Beach

Great time at the Cavalier. Beautiful surrounds and happening spot at night. Great meal at Becca, but FREEZING, had to have a blanket that they keep on hand. Rooms were large and comfy. Shower was a dribble, why? Beach club was great, and a good lunch spot...got tired of Poolside Pandora music after a while. Loved the 40's jazz sound in the bar area in the afternoon. Valets were big fun and looked forward to chatting with them every time we went out.

The furniture in the suite was not very comfortable and was questionable for cleanliness. Someone was able to access the door lock at 10:00pm but luckily the door latch was in place and prevented full intrusion. Otherwise a fine stay.

I was so disappointed by the service at the restaurants, they were in a state of constant confusion. The wait staff was wonderful however the host desk was always in a discussion about internal issue that the guest should not be privy to. Also the lac of consistent hot water in my room did not make me happy at all. I nicely expressed my dissatisfaction to the front desk and requested a call from the manager. I have yet to hear from anyone. The property does not live up to its rating.

A very bad experience!

I am a frequent guest at the Cavalier, but this time it was the most disappointing stay. First of all, I've been charged for some items from mini bar I've never had, never eaten, never drunk! After calling the front desk twice, was never given what I asked for (always heard - "it is on its way"). Just curious, for what is the hotel/room fee - for service that is not functioning well?!

would have been nice if they didn't cancel me....

I booked my stay in August and was excited since I am a local and have never stayed at the Cavalier. We were attending the Bourbon Invitational so it was the perfect excuse. 30 minutes before arrival, I received a call from the front desk manager indicating they were overbooked and had to cancel my reservation. I booked this is AUGUST, it is now NOVEMBER, HOW DID I GET BUMPED OUT OF MY ROOM?!! They offered me a stay across the street and a "full refund" plus parking expenses as compensation for the inconvenience. It was a nice gesture but I was very disappointed. We stayed at the Marriot across the street and it was nice despite getting shifted hotels. NOW THE FUN PART.... the refund...... It has taken me 6 calls and many follow-up emails for my refund but they won't refund the resort fee and taxes..... so much for fully compensated due to their error. It is a beautiful hotel but because of such crappy management and booking, I will NEVER STAY THERE.

It's gone downhill.

Customer service is non existent. The front desk was SO rude after they gave us wrong keys and then gave us keys to someone else's room! They thrn said they would upgrade us to an oceanview suite for the trouble. However it was not an upgraded room, it was a downgrade from what we paid for! When we went back down to say this was actually a downgrade, the front desk guy said yes it is a suite and an upgrade. I said that we've stayed multiple times in a suite and this was not one. He then said- well I work here everyday and I'm saying it's an upgrade. Toodles! And turns around to leave while I'm still talking. Just overall horrible customer service. And no one apologized for giving us keys to someone else's room. Those people also had no idea thay we were in their room- just not ok overall. This used to be our favorite place to stay but the customer service makes us think otherwise. We ate breakfast in Becca and the amount of flies around, on us and our food constantly, was pretty gross. Just overall not what we've experienced before or expect from the Cavalier. Try the Marriott across the street- Orion's roof was amazing for food and the customer service there was much better!
