Great place to just walk around and enjoy Norfolk. Some of the most skilled and helpful staff around.

Staff was available and responsive! Rest rooms and showers were very dated and far away. Great restaurants in the area and trail by the water for walking.

Marina Response:

Thank you for the great review, we hope to see you again!

Waterside is a great place to visit. The marina is great, and the personnel are knowledgeable and great to work with. The only problem is they need to get there electrical handled for each pedistal.

The staff was incredibly accommodating, and the location is ideal with many attractions within walking distance. The views of the surrounding area, the naval vessels, and the marina at night were spectacular. Additionally, the bath and shower facilities were clean and secure. This was an outstanding stop on my journey along The Great Loop. Thank you for the positive experience.

Great location. Great service.

by Adam C. - Verified user on Jun 13, 2026

Our stay, was good. We had concerns about security. Also, the marina, really needs to set/up the 3-ph. / 480- shore power, correctly. It is unsafe, as is right now.

Nice location close to major attractions

Nice docks and nice restaurants

by Chris P. - Verified user on Jun 04, 2026

Beautiful marina, friendly staff and the sights of the naval boats breathtaking! My ONLY negative would be that the Waterside Markets indoor small take out restaurants were all closed! Blue Moon and PBR were open but Blue Moon was the only outlet at the marina for food. Otherwise nice place, would stay again!
