With 35 miles of golden sandy beaches, Virginia Beach, Virginia, has long been a popular American beach destination. A park-like boardwalk lines the beach along with outdoor cafes, street performers, live musicians and boutique shops while the rolling waves of the Atlantic Ocean serve as a backdrop for wedding ceremonies in the sand. Honeymooners have a variety of options when visiting Virginia Beach, because most oceanfront hotels feature honeymoon suites with newlyweds in mind.
Honeymooners can hide out in luxury at the Newcastle Hotel, whose Honeymoon Suite has a large whirlpool tub surrounded by mirrors and an elevated gas fireplace. The suite is decorated with a modern tropical décor and has a king-size canopy bed. Panoramic views wrap around the private balcony, and the large bathroom comes with a double-size shower enclosure. Water sports and sunbathing are steps away as the hotel provides direct access to the beach. Relax in the seasonal oceanfront restaurant or enjoy the hotel's ocean-view fitness center and indoor pool.
