Thinking about coming to Reston & Virginia Beach

Hello my loves. I feel like Virginia is calling me, not to sure of why because this will be my very first time there.

I was curious to know if any of you that are familiar with the areas could let me know of areas to stay at/stay away from. Any main site attractions or must sees, must stays, & must eats

Thanks so much Virginia!

Welcome, I don't know too much about Reston, but I can help with Va Beach. If you're a beach person, stay on the oceanfront. It may be a bit more pricier than other locations in Va Beach but a bunch of the hotels have excellent views and are right there on the water. They sometimes have live bands/entertainment on the weekends. Should be something going on with Labor Day nearing. Town center is a good location as well...for spots to eat. Norfolk and Chesapeake are in the vicinity as well.

Reston/Herndon are the part of the Dulles area I prefer to stay in (nothing against Sterling or Chantilly though).
What kind of food/cuisine are you into?

Email me doll. I'm going to to be in VA /DMV in October. And Reston is one of the upscale areas I stay in. You'll enjoy it. Lot's to do in the area.
And Davincib will definitely give you good advice for VB. He's a sweetheart.

Reston is a good area, close to Tysons and dulles.
