Sorry Sarge - My friend and I have travelled back to Barrington Inn for almost 5 years now and the best times that we have experienced HAVE been with the newest innkeepers Caren and John. They are anything but MIA. We watched countless sunsets (beautiful sunsets on porch overlooking bay and ocean) and they offered us breakfast even after breakfast... more

LOVED IT! Ideal location - walk to old and new harbor and beach. Lovely deck for sunset viewing. Room(s) have the charm of a NE inn with modern ammenities like A/C & TV. Innkeepers Caren & John were so fun and friendly, we spent more time at the Inn than out on the Island. We've stayed at many hotels and... more

We stayed in Apt #1 for a week. The location was lovely, the beds comfortable,but that is where it stopped! The inkeepers were far from friendly,unless approached,even upon arrival. The furniture was old,stained and sticky. Ants were constantly crawling on the kitchen counter. We did not know ahead of time that we had to supply toilet tissue and paper towels,though... more

Not only that, right outside was a deck which offered sweeping views of the island, New... more

I have been going to the Block Island for approximately 10 years. Due to my work schedule (I am a teacher), the best time for me to visit the island is during my spring break, which falls in mid-April. I have stayed at numerous places on the island and have been constantly in search of the “perfect” place to stay.... more

My Husband and I stayed at the Barrington for 21 consecutive years and always had a wonderful experience. However, in 2007 this fine Inn came under new ownership and has subsequently lost its charm. During our week-long stay in the summer of 2007, the new owners were largely absent and rather unfriendly during those few times they were around. Indeed,... more

My wife and I stayed at the Barrington Inn for one night. We liked the location and the views from the third floor room. The Inn Manager was kind. They had complimentary ice cream in the freezer which hit the spot when we returned after dinner. The bed was extremely comfortable. At 5 pm or so the water pressure in... more

We just returned from an anniversary trip to BI....I expected very little based on others experiences -but I have to say we had a WONDERFUL time. We stayed at a very comfortable B&B THE BARRINGTON. Run by a really nice couple Gerri and Mike they allowed us the privacy and comfort we were looking for. ...and amazing coffee, fresh fruit... more
