Welcome to the Simply, There’s No Other Place Like It In the 1930s, Cavalier Associates divided a portion of the Cavalier Residences Cavalier properties into an exclusive neighborhood known today as Cavalier Shores. The homes and cottages developed in Cavalier Shores were connected to The Cavalier Hotel and the Beach Club by brick walkways, landscaped gardens and tree-lined pathways. The streets remained open and encouraged neighborhood socializing. Bridle paths and alleys provided access to the rear of the residences. An added benefit of being a resident of Cavalier Shores was exclusive access to the amenities of The Cavalier Hotel. Residents socialized and held community events such as swimming competitions, recitals and holiday functions. The hotel was the heart of their community. On Memorial Day in 1929, the Cavalier Beach Club opened. The club was the forerunner of all beach clubs, and none that followed ever overtook or even kept pace with it. For the next three decades, The Cavalier was the “Big Band Capital of the World.” Also opening in 1929 was the Cavalier Golf and Yacht Club. In May that same year, The Cavalier hosted its first annual horse show. The Cavalier had rightfully earned the nickname “Aristocrat of the Virginia Seashore,” and Welcome Home served aristocrats from all over the country. Cavalier Shores today is one of Virginia Beach’s oldest and most coveted neighborhoods. The enchanting and eclectic mix of homes, from 1930-60s ranch-style and two-story homes to more modern homes of the later 20th century, all contribute to the neighborhood’s charm and appeal. Just blocks from the oceanfront beaches, but quietly tucked away, Cavalier Shores retains its close-knit neighborhood ambiance and small-town feel.
