Kingsmill Resort is perfect. In December, 1991, my best friend from Jacksonville, Florida, came for a visit; and we stayed in a River Suite. Last week she came again, and we stayed at another River Suite. Since we had only one night there, we did not visit Colonial Williamsburg or any tourist sites: we simply stayed inside and enjoyed the luxury of our suite, the expansive view of the James River, and room service. The Front Desk graciously allowed us to stay two extra hours beyond our eleven o'clock check out. What a blessing! Shopping tip: I suggest that you check the Gift Shop and its Brighton jewelry. My friend bought me a pendant necklace that I will cherish as a reminder of our special time there.

My husband had a conference here for a few days and since we had never been to this part of the country decided to make a longer stay and enrich our knowledge of US history.
This resort has it all...something for everyone. Serveral differant types of dwellings from large homes to condos. This is a very busy resort and caters to couples, families, business, solo travelers, large gatherings, weddings, etc. It has golf, indoor/outdoor pools, a marina, fitness center, bikes to rent, complete spa, staff drivern golf carts to transport you to your rooms or other parts of the resort, tennis court, racketball/basketball, fitness center, restaurants and lounges, jogging/walking trail and kids camp. Plus a scheduled shuttle service to Colonial Williamsburg, Water Country, and Busch Gardens.
We stayed in one of their condos (several units per condo) building #24 upstairs (no elevator). Our very well maintained unit was like a small modern, professsionally decorated & completely furnished home with separate bedroom, bath, fully stocked kitchen (all cooking needs provided for long stays with new appliances (full sized stove, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher & microwave), dining area, a laundryroom with washer/dryer and living area with nice size balcony. There's a television in the livingroom and one in the bedroom. The living room has a big fireplace and lovely comfortable furniture with a foldout sofa. The bedroom had a big walkin closet (plush robes/slippers included) with safe, a raised, cozy bed with a thick down comforter & lovely linens. The tiled spotless bathroom had a large shower. Many of the units connect for large families.
The staff was friendly, helpful, and very courteous.
The Moody's Bar (upstairs from the entrance lobby) was huge with a lodge decor, large fireplace, sports prodcasts on several monitors, a separate game room with billards, backgammon table, card tables, dart boards, light snacks, cigars, a fireplace, flat screem tvs, and large outdoor balcony.
We had dinner at Brae Bistro - seafood buffet ($30 per person), very nice wine list, and view of historic James River - great service!
A very limited wine variety however. Guitar man for entertainment was pretty good.

Wonderful experience and stay.

We had such a great time. We stayed in a one bedroom suite with a full kitchen (stocked with cooking utensils and dinnerware). It was bigger than our first apartment. :) The linens on the king bed were amazingly comfortable. The rooms were clean, the robes were soft, the grounds were beautiful, and the staff was very obliging. We have no complaints whatsoever from our 3 day/2 night trip.

I called about an hour before arriving to ask for a pack-n-play. It was not only in the room upon our arrival, but they included a free care package of baby supplies: baby shampoo, Desitin, baby powder, etc. We weren't planning on using the washer/dryer during such a short trip, but I'm so glad that it was there. We ended up needing to do a small load, and when I called the front desk to ask if they sold one time use packages of detergent, they offered to deliver a free sample to our room.

We used the free shuttle every time we went somewhere within the resort and it was always very prompt. The drivers were all very kind even when I boarded with two damp kids after swimming in the pool. The pool was nice and everyone had fun. We also enjoyed the park that is by the main building and went for a couple of walks around the property.

We stayed at Kingmill because my husband had a business conference, and the kids and I had a very relaxing weekend and were well taken care of. Also, the food that was provided for our meals (I'm assuming that it was catered by the resort) was delicious, and they had a large variety. I can't really speak about the value because we didn't pay for the room (my husband's job covered everything), but as you can see, I ranked everything else "Excellent". We can't wait to go back!

This place reminds me more of a timeshare than a hotel! I reserved a one bedroom suite for 3 nights, during Christmas week. I paid $179 a night for 3 nights. What a great deal! My room had a fireplace, a balcony overlooking the river, a full kitchen equipped with everything u could need, the living space was as large as a hotel room, and my bedroom was huge! The bathroom had a glass shower and was very roomy!

The grounds at the Kingsmill are landscaped beautifully and they are always working to keep the property pristine.

They also have multiple dining options to choose from and the
hotel staff was extremely accommodating!

I would definitely come back again and again! In fact I will never stay at another hotel in williamburg again.
