Barclay B&B is such a lovely spot. The owners Sharon and Rich give loving care to the property and their guests. Rich is a fantastic cook and serves up gourmet breakfast every morning.

It was a wonderful experience! We had a great time. I highly recommend this property! Thank you Sharon and Rick for the personalized service. We hope to visit you again soon.

Rich and Sharon are welcoming and attentive. Their home is tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. Rich is a wonderful cook who thoughtfully packed me a to-go bag when I had to miss his breakfast service. Highly recommend!

This b&b is adorable, it looks like it belongs somewhere in a storybook seaside town. The bed was clean and comfortable, the owners served amazing, 4-star breakfast daily, and were supremely helpful and friendly during our stay. My best friend and I were utterly charmed by their hospitality and the friendliness of their kitty, Fiona. I cannot recommend them enough!

The free breakfast was unbelievable. We couldn’t wait to see what would be served. Definitely a homey vibe. My daughter and I just loved it. Will definitely try and return.

This was my first time ever staying at a bed-and-breakfast, I was joined by two friends and it was their first time as well, all three of us were very pleased with our stay. Sharon and Rich, a.k.a. Ken and Barbie, lol. Were very friendly, very accommodating and I would definitely go back and stay at this bed-and-breakfast If I am ever fortunate to come back to Virginia Beach
Sharon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a very intimate stay. My wife and I enjoyed the interesting conversations that we had with the owners and other guests during the morning breakfasts. Rich and Sharon (the owners) were fabulous. The breakfasts were beyond our expectations. They were more like what you would see at a 5 star restaurant. The location is only 3 blocks from the oceanfront, which was very convenient. Parking can be expensive in the area, so having a place to park was great! The rooms were well kept. The bathroom was spacious, although it was down the hallway. That can be a challenge if you are someone who has to make 'bathroom trips' in the middle of the night. All in all , it was a great time.
Rodney, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Rich and Sharon were attentive, warm and personable hosts. They made it clear in every way that they love being hosts through creating a lovely ambience for their guests, through serving creative and memorable breakfasts for their guests, and finally through engaging conversation. The house itself is beautiful, nestled in a quiet neighborhood that is minutes away from the beach!
Carlota, 4-night trip

The owners went out of their way to assist the customers. Great location and enjoyed the bikes and beach chairs!
Jennifer, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Most of all, we loved the hospitality of the owners. They were very gracious and full of local history and information. They were very good at balancing when they needed to be available and when we needed privacy. They are a very lovely couple, and we would definitely stay at Barclay on our next visit to Virginia Beach.

Hidden Gem

Sharon and Rich were amazing, the establishment had a family feel. Breakfast was awesome, everyday was a different chef specialty from chef ( Rich ) . Just a 3 min walk to the beach and restaurants. They also have bikes, coolers, beach umbrellas chairs, beach wagons that make easy for everyone’s comfort.
