The Historic Powhatan Resort

Just like a big beautiful apartment, Full kitchen with everything you need.

Having an apartment for our vacation adds perfect balance to a getaway that includes a young child. The grounds were beautiful and allow opportunity to get outside, safely and comfortably to expend that extra energy. Inside was large enough to accomodate down time and attend to critter comforts. Time and Money very well spent.

We had an excellent experience at this resort. We booked an upper level deluxe condo and were so pleasantly surprised, especially after reading other reviews. Our condo looked and smelled clean and fresh, the carpet looked new as did the paint. It was very large and was just perfect for our stay. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone, it was great!

We stayed in a 2 bedroom upstairs condo. It was nicely furnished with attractive carpeting throughout. Had a lot of pans and appliances for the kitchen. Beds and pillows were comfortable. I like how the complex was spread out with an downstairs and upstairs condo which reduced the noise and made it easy to load and unload the car. The grounds were beautiful with lakes and picnic tables containing charcoal grill throughout. I felt secure being in a gated community. However it was a hike to Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg but not too bad. The only things I did not like were the small old TVs and having to say no to the sales pitch after check-in. Overall a real nice affordable place to stay with the family. Would definitely stay there again.

Only heard about this by watching undercover boss- after seeing the owner take such good care of his employees, I wanted to support a place like this- I'm glad I did- Great hotel, particularly for the price. Would definately go back.

I really enjoyed my stay.I had some problems with the out dated tv and when house keeping come she didn't knock she just walked in but other then that everything was ok.

The Resort is located on an gated community that was a former plantation. The rooms are all in townhouse style buildings with rooms on top and bottom floors. A large facility with several hundred rooms but pretty well kept.

We searched for a hotel in the area and this hotel came up in the search. We thought we would give this a chance because we like to support the smaller businesses. Well we were in for a surprise! This was not a hotel, rather a timeshare, Diamond Resorts Intl. to be more specific. When we checked in, they moved us to the VIP section in the back (we were told) and this was the "high pressure" sale trying to get us to buy a timeshare. All we wanted to do was get to our room. This was NOT a good first impression. The room was okay, nothing extraordinary. In fact, it was kind of annoying. The location of the TV's were just plain dumb. The TV in the living room, was in between the dining room and coaches. So, we could never watch the TV head on. And the other TV was in the kids bedroom, not the master. The showers were sub-par, and the walls were paper thin. But, the kitchen was clean and well stocked with supplies. If you are looking for WIFI, it will cost you. This was annoying, as all the other places we stay at, it is free.

We were pleased to find recycling bins for use on the grounds. The Maintenance crew had the grounds in beautiful condition, and were busy with spring mulching, yet took time to wave, speak and smile.

This condo is in the Diamond category. Everything is good.
