The hotel is a little dated but it was very clean and had everything you would need to stay a few days (stove, microwave, toaster, pots/pans, silverware, refrigerator), The owners were very nice and were willing to accommodate to our needs and had great recommendations of where to go and what to do. It was worth staying here rather than... More

Being on a budget, we were looking for something within the $100 a night range close to the beach. This MOTEL is a 30 second walk to the boardwalk. Literally just walk across the street and your toes are in the sand. We were on the first floor and had a fantastic view when we looked out our huge window,... More

Took a while to write this review. My family was to stay in late August before school started check-in on Thursday and out Sunday. Irene came blasting through Friday and Saturday. Cutty Sark told us Thursday they were staying open even though the Govenor had declared a state of emergency, which means no unneccesary travel into the state and told... More

We are very sorry that this lady was so frightened by the overly ambitious news media that she wanted to cancel her long held reservation. When she called here to tell us of her plans, we told her the truth when, we said the weather was beautiful and that they should come, that all beach activities were continuing. When Irene... More

My husband and I spent 3 nights here (Aug. 29- Sept. 1, 2011) right after Hurricane Irene went through. The motel is north of the busiest part of Virginia Beach, on the west side of Atlantic Avenue. We could see the ocean from our balcony on the third floor by looking on either side of the taller hotel directly across... More

I booked a room rather last minute, and then got very worried after reading some "reviews". I am not sure I was in the same place after comparing my expereince with some previous postings. True, it is no Ritz, but it is clean and comfortable, with great location as far as the beach, restaurants and shopping. Maybe some people like... More

This place is a dump - plain and simple. They advertise "historic" and that is code for gross, dirty, cheap, and tacky. These cottages make "The Roper's" look like big spenders! Our shower (which you can't even close the curtain all the way as it butts up to the sink - which was filthy) greeted us with long black hairs... More

We are very sorry this guest did not have a wonderful vacation in The Cutty Sark Cottages. Our Cottages are self catering and our guest makes them selves at home year afer year. Built in years from 1912 to 1930. The Cottages are more spacious than a Hotel Room, one, two and three bedrooms, and most guest do enjoy that... More

I could only handle two nights in the run-down hotel efficiencies at Cutty Sark. Everything in this hotel and my room was in dire need of a serious update and definitely not worth the $140/night I paid with poor or no amenities. The room was small with old cinder block walls and had shabby, worn out, tacky furnishings. There is... More

We had a wonderful time at the house we stayed in. We actually went down in July of 2010. The place was in a great location . It was very clean with no pest problems. We were a little worried since it was The below ground apartment in the white house but we never saw a bug or critter one.. More

I reserved at this motel last weekend. 2 adults, 2 children. On the phone, Marina stated that the kids were teens and I would be charged $20 extra/day/child. That was fine, however, I was expecting a room with 2 beds AND a sofa. When I got there, the room only had 1 bed and 1 sofa and was too small... More

Thank you for your comments regarding our property. We appreciate the time taken to write your review. We are very sorry for the misunderstanding. We try very hard to describe out property accurately. It is not helpful for us to have guest dissatisfied when they arrive. Sometimes when a guest makes several calls to several properties the details get confused.... More

I was so surprised by this motel. On Trip Advisor, it seemed to have gotten good ratings so thought that it would be sufficient. The prices at VA Beach hotels were high so thought that a mediocre hotel at $140 per night would not be so bad. I was wrong. The room smelled, there was only a hand soap dispenser... More
