The food is such a demonstration of the talent the chefs at the Club as they pair each of the wines with a unique dish.

Not only is the space beautiful and inviting, but the decorations are wine inspired and presentation of the food and plating is impressive.”

“My second time as a patient here and I wish to comment on my stay. Employees were exceptional. They related extremely well with the patients. Each worked at providing the highest possible care. Food service was very good, and most importantly, the physical therapy program was excellent - main reason I requested to be here! In 12 days, I went from a stretcher to walking out on my last day unassisted. I strongly recommend the services at Seaside.”

“My husband, a 24 year Air Force veteran, and I moved to Atlantic Shores in October 2016. We decided to tour three retirement communities in Virginia Beach, but after seeing Atlantic Shores we threw the names of the other two away. We chose to live in a villa on the big lake and we love it! We've met wonderful folks through the years but feel we've never lived in a friendlier environment. We've made friends quickly and treasure these friendships.”
