A Saltwater Oasis in Virginia Beach

In the heart of Virginia Beach lies an oasis. Tucked away at Columbus Station apartments is an outdoor saltwater pool surrounded by palm trees and lounge chairs. Adjacent to the pool deck is a beautifully paved patio with a gas grill and cabana seating under the pergola. You’d never guess that this tropical sanctuary was hiding just off the I-264 interstate, discreetly nestled in the center of Columbus Station. Residents can splash all day, then spend the evening around the fire pit. 


Our residents love the benefits of our saltwater pool. Saltwater is typically more gentle on your hair, skin, and swimsuit. And the best part is that this pool is maintenance-free. Just grab your towel and head down to the water. Our maintenance professionals will take care of the rest. 


The setting can’t be beat. Summertime foliage is in view of the pool deck, with seasonal color on full display. Lush landscaping is our hallmark, and it’s a feature all our residents enjoy. Our goal was to make your summer pool experience feel like a resort. (The best part of this getaway is that you can pack light!)


Our poolside kitchen is outfitted with a gas barbeque grill, a prep sink and granite countertops. Don’t miss a moment of fun trapped inside over the stove–join the party poolside and treat your friends to some summertime snacks! The chef is the main attraction whether you’re preparing light refreshments like summer salad and watermelon, or cooking classic hot dogs and hamburgers, you can seamlessly serve your family (and your guests) from the generous countertop that doubles as a bar. (And if you run out of ingredients, Wegmans grocery store and Wal-Mart are nearby, just off of Independence Boulevard.)


There is no better way to cool off after work or on the weekend than with a dip in the water. When you live at Columbus Station Apartments in Virginia Beach, you have the option of taking a quick drive to the Chesapeake Bay (15 minutes away), the Virginia Beach Oceanfront (20 minutes away), or you could step out your back door and walk over to the courtyard pool in your neighborhood! Beat the traffic (and the parking) by choosing an apartment at Columbus Station, where relaxation is actually relaxing. You don’t need to pack for the whole day when the pool is a short walk from your home. Maybe you just want to dip your feet and read a book. Oor maybe you’d like to camp out poolside and soak up the sun while your partner swims a few laps. It’s so convenient when you live at Columbus Station in Virginia Beach!


The pool is not open year-round, but if you got into the habit of swimming for exercise, you’re in luck. Virginia Beach has some of the best public recreation centers, all of which have pools! Virginia Beach residents receive a special member rate, and there are seven locations to choose from. The closest recreation centers to Columbus Station Apartments are the Bow Creek, Williams Farm, Kempsville and Bayside locations. Though the pool closes after the summer season, the fire pit and outdoor kitchen remain open so that residents can continue to enjoy the outdoors.
