Every second of our stay was perfect. I read all of the reviews beforehand, so I knew what to expect and came prepared. It was everything I hoped it would be and more. We will absolutely be back—without a single doubt."

Top Barrier Islands Center Hotel Reviews

Sisters 3 by the Sea, 400 Feet To The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"I think better seating on the front porch would be nice. A swing, Adirondack chairs. I did like having a table. The view from the front porch was the best. I think with the sulfer smell a water filtration system is a must if it gets the smell out. Not sure if it would or not."

The Captain's Quarters located in Cape Charles, VA offers breathtaking views.

10/10 Excellent

"What a great location. In the heart of the harbor above the yacht club office. Close to the cute little village of Cape Charles. Quite charming really."

Nassawadox Creek Waterfront Home with Private Pool

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the view of the water!"

Cape Escape-Short Walk to Beach, Pet Friendly, Fenced Yard & Optional GC Rental

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! We especially loved the dog-friendly location and how easy it was to enjoy the area with our pup. Having the golf cart rental was such a fun bonus and made getting around even more enjoyable and convenient.The only small suggestion we would have is to make the dining area a little easier to access. We found ourselves needing to move furniture before and after meals, which was a bit cumbersome.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and the location was fantastic. We would happily stay here again!"

Pet-Friendly Waterfront Retreat w/ Private Dock on Virginia’s Eastern Shore

10/10 Excellent

"My family had an awesome time over Labor Day weekend staying at Ripple! (While we waited for the house to be ready, we took a short trip to Kiptopeke and saw the concrete ships. So cool!)Ripple was the perfect place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary with our children, 21 and 24. It was peaceful, relaxing, clean and comfortable, and had a beautiful view. We made sure to take our fishing gear, and spent a lot of our time out on the pier catching croakers, speckled sea trout (?), and our very first cobias!We are already talking about our next stay at Ripple. That time can't come soon enough! :)"

The Strand: Free Golf Carts, Paddle Boards, Tennis & Pool, 1 Blk to Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Rich and Stephanie are amazing hosts and super responsive! We had a great time at this exceptional home. It was so nice to be able to use the golf carts! We also love staying in this part of Cape Charles for access to the private beaches. It makes the stay so easy and enjoyable! We would certainly re-rent this property!"

Beachfront Home, Sunset Views & Bay Creek Access

10/10 Excellent

"Host was great. View great. Rooms clean and beds comfortable. Negatives has to do with lawn service doesn’t clean outdoor shower area, Could use some hanging hooks in bathrooms for towels and dock kits. TV in family room is tough to watch from couch as it is too big. 70 inches. Like sitting in front row of IMAX theater. Lack of knives in silverware drawer. Umbrella on deck needs repair but once fixed good shade. Nice beach chairs and umbrella selection. Power cord for cart charging a plus. Door locks stick on outside. Lots games available I’m being being picky but nothing is a deal breaker. Good choice for rental."
