Rooms with ocean views

The Ocean Key Resort offers 142 suites, each with a separate living area, king-size beds, and pull-out sleeper sofas. Rooms include a full kitchen with utensils, a flat-screen TV, and private balconies overlooking the Atlantic Ocean or Rudee Inlet. Some suites feature PURE(TM) Allergy Friendly rooms with improved air quality.

On-site dining

Roma's Italian Restaurant serves seasonal dishes, including pasta, pizza, and tiramisu. The third-floor hospitality deck provides marina views, and an on-site pizzeria offers gelato and Italian desserts during peak seasons.

Activities for families

Guests can access a heated indoor pool, hot tub, fitness center, and tanning booth. The resort is steps from Rudee Inlet, where activities include deep-sea fishing, pirate ship cruises, and boat charters. The third-floor activity area has arcade games and a play zone for kids.

South End boardwalk location

The resort is on the quieter South End of Virginia Beach's boardwalk, a short walk from the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center and Croatan Beach. Lynnhaven Mall, with 140 stores, is a 15-minute drive. Norfolk International Airport is 35 km away.

Ownership and exchange options

VSA Resorts provides deeded ownership with RCI exchange access to over 5,000 global destinations. Suites are maintained year-round, and owners can rent, sell, or pass down their property. On-site services include laundry facilities, complimentary Wi-Fi, and a beach wheelchair for guest use.

“The Ocean Key Virginia Beach Resort strikes me as a practical choice for families wanting to be near the boardwalk and a short drive from the calmer shores of Sandbridge; the all-suite setup with kitchenettes really sets it apart. I noticed that while some found the rooms needing a bit of upkeep, the friendly staff and the well-maintained pool seem to create a welcoming atmosphere. Ultimately, it appears to be a reasonable base for exploring Virginia Beach.”
