Virginia Beach.
Virginia Beach's boardwalk is wall-to-wall Hilton, Sheraton, and Marriott. The independent scene is small but real — the Cavalier (newly restored 1927 historic hotel, independent after years of ownership drama), a few bed-and-breakfasts in the historic district, and the quieter inns in Cape Charles across the bay. We focus there.
