“Holiday Inn Va Beach-Oceanside 21st St provides families with an appealing beachfront option, most rooms include balconies facing the ocean. Hemingway's Restaurant and the indoor pool featuring a lazy river add unique touches. I note that some past guests have reported issues with the elevators and parking, but management seems responsive.”
