“Great Activities”

Reviewed 22 May 2013 NEW

We stayed in a 2 bedroom condo for 6 nights and the only complaint I have with the unit is the lighting was very bad. The bedrooms and living room only had small lamps so reading in the bedroom was almost impossible. At check-in I didn't like the pressure to view a timeshare. They already had us booked for the...

“Annual May Vacation!!!”

We have been going to Powhatan Resort for approx. 10 years now and always enjoy staying here. This time we had a 2 bedroom even though there was just the two of us. Enjoyed eating evening meals at The Grill and seeing one of our favorite waiters from last year Ben. The grounds are very well taken care of and... More

“Huge Unit! A good choice for a big family!”

We had got an amazing price through searsvacations.com, so we decided to give it a try. Let me just say, that I am glad that I did go through Historic Powhatan! Our family... More

“Great Long Weekend”

We stayed here for a long weekend and was completely satisfied. I requested a renovated unit and was upgraded to a two bedroom unit with no charge. The unit was very clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend. We did breakfast in but ate out for other meals. We had a new flat screen tv mounted above... More

“Great Place”

Spent 3 nights and 2.5 days here. Loved it. When properly shopped for, the price is excellent. Basically had a two bedroom 2 bathroom apartment with a full kitchen. Basically...pfft, had exactly that. Clean, well maintained and beautiful. Didn't want to leave. This place had more to do than we had time for. Two pools, one indoor one outdoor. Fitness... More

“Beautiful grounds. Excellent value. Just say no to ownership!”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

We just returned from a four night stay at the resort. The grounds were beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed walking over the property and enjoyed some of the amenities. The pool was quite nice. And though I was the youngest one there, water aerobics was a fun morning activity. We enjoyed checking out DVDs to watch, but we were also... More

“Seems Okay To Me”

My brother & his family stayed here 17-20 May 2013. He got a good deal on Hotel.com. After I read the reviews, I was scared and elected to stay elsewhere. About 10 minutes away. So the first night I went to visit them at their location. I was pretty impressed. Gate guard at the entrance and your name had to... More

“Be ready to tell them you're not interested in the time share presentation.”

This was a great stay and great value! Rooms could be updated, but everything very, very clean! Grounds are beautiful. We had read reviews beforehand about the time share presentation and when we said we were positive that we didn't want it, there was no more hard sell. We will stay again!

“Comfortable Stay, Steer clear of the sharks though.”

My rating is strictly for the resort. We stayed in a 2 bedroom on the 2nd floor. The unit was very clean and nicely appointed. The beds, pillows and bedding were comfortable. The bath towels were plush. The door to our unit creaked and being the worry wart that I am was concerned that it disturbed our neighbors. The bedrooms... More
