The Historic Powhatan Resort by Diamond Resorts

The constant sales pitch was quite annoying. I will probably not stay at a diamond resort location for this reason. On the second night of our stay, we came in after going out to dinner to find about 10 bugs, of different sizes flying and walking around the kitchen. It was about 10 or 11pm at this time and we did not bother to call the lobby since we would be leaving in the morning. The beds were hard and creaked with every movement -- not what I expected from a resort. The furniture was a bit dated, and the armoire had a broken arm on the fold-down door. We will more than likely not be visiting again.

The location and accommodation was amazing. We have two small children and the one-bedroom downstairs room was perfect. Everyone had separate space. The amenities are great, though the pool advertises it's open at 8am but really it's 8:30am since they have an adult aerobics class from 8-8:30am. I love the outdoor amenities including the playground, pool, and walking areas. The only complaint I have is that it took 50 minutes to check in. That was a really long time and I'm not entirely sure what the problem was. I would hope it's a faster process next time, as we'll definitely be back.

Stayed with my daughter for William and Mary visit. Rooms were large and clean and very comfortable. We plan on staying again whenever we visit.

The Powhatan was a great family place to stay. It had plenty of amenities to keep the kids busy: pool, tennis, mini-golf and playgrounds. LOVED the coffee spot on premises!

Pillows were hard, they charged me for a night when they weren't supposed to, and the keys didn't work the first time. Other than that, awesome space and layout. We only stayed one night, but we would come back.
