Would definitely book the unit again. ##### Cheryl P. Stayed 14 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew J. Jun 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice little cottage. The cottage is tucked away in the back right corner of the property. There is a small pool across the circular parking lot. The bay/beach is a short walk away, with more beaches without the cape a short walk/bike/drive. A wonderful place. This is our third trip to Barefoot Cottages, and we have loved it every time. ##### Andrew J.

Jan 4, 2020 #### Very nice house Nice house and very nicely furnished and decorated. It's a bit far from town, but it did not bother us for a January stay. Might not stay here if going for a summer trip just because it is off the beaten path. Houses are really close together. ##### Angie P. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa S. Oct 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful right around the corner! Barefoot Cottage was perfect for our group of 4! My husband and I had a room and bathroom downstairs to ourselves and my daughter and her friend had the whole upstairs. Everything was clean and in good working! 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms was very nice too! Beautiful beaches right across the street. We traveled around from Mexico Beach, Windmark Cape San Blas, and St George Island all not very far from the property! Several great places to eat. The property is quiet and well maintained! We will definitely stay again in future visits. ##### Lisa S. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Casey H. Nov 26, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Thanksgiving trip Loved the house. Only problem was that I feel the house might have sat a little while between cleaning. A bit musty inside when we got there. But I opened up the windows to air out and it was fine. But the dryer wouldn’t stay on. So I had to go somewhere else to wash and dry our clothes. But other than those things it was a great house to stay at with my family! I would definitely rent it again in the future! ##### Casey H. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark Y. Jul 17, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### D119 Dishwasher condition was terrible and stunk. Did not use it and hand washed dishes. It should be swapped out with new one. Bathroom door drags across vinyl plank floor and is damaging the floor. House is surrounded by swamp water and terrible mosquitos. ##### Mark Y.

Pretty clean ( except under the furniture ) however it’s not close to the public beach access at all. About a mile and a 1/2 away from it, and hopefully you don’t mind neighbors cause the houses are EXTREMELY close. ##### Amanda M. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shorewalk Vacation Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-Shorewalk-Vacation-Villas.h13316.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Palm-Beach.h20271.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach House Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Margaritaville-Beach-House-Key-West.h48713884.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Beach Marriott Singer Island Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Singer-Island-Hotels-Palm-Beach-Marriott-Singer-Island-Beach-Resort-Spa.h449170.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Beachside Hotel & Suites Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Beachside-Hotel-Suites.h4995.Hotel-Information) > > [The Colony Hotel Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-Colony-Hotel-Palm-Beach.h8074.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h4398.Hotel-Information) > > [Solterra Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Solterra-Resort.h18526478.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Port Canaveral, FL](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h1489240.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Walk Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Ocean-Walk.h598390.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h894002.Hotel-Information) > > [Edgewater Beach and Golf Resort by Southern Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Edgewater-Beach-And-Golf-Resort-By-Resort-Collection.h803238.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Best-Western-Cocoa-Beach-Hotel-Suites.h18029.Hotel-Information) > > [PGA National Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Gardens-Hotels-PGA-National-Resort-And-Spa.h10355.Hotel-Information) > > [Tranquility Bay Beachfront Hotel and Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Tranquility-Bay-Beachfront-Hotel-And-Resort.h117099.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Island Luxury | Home in Windsor Island Resort, Private Pool, Arcade](https://www.expedia.ca/Davenport-Hotels-Windsor-Island-Luxury-NEW-Home-In-Windsor-Island-Resort.h60809096.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Naples-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Coconut-Point-Resort-Spa.h792025.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Port Canaveral](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Cocoa-Beach-Port-Canaveral.h15605.Hotel-Information) > > [Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-Largo-Hotels-Bakers-Cay-Resort-Key-Largo.h14042.Hotel-Information) > > [The Resort at Longboat Key Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Sarasota-Hotels-The-Resort-At-Longboat-Key-Club.h27542.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Resort at the Port](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Radisson-Resort-At-The-Port.h4692.Hotel-Information) > > [Fiesta Key RV Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Long-Key-Hotels-Fiesta-Key-RV-Resort.h4578886.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahama House](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Hotels-Bahama-House.h893658.Hotel-Information) > > [Vacation Village at Weston, Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Vacation-Village-At-Weston.h1062880.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Beach House, Key West](https://www.expedia.ca/Key-West-Hotels-Hyatt-Vacation-Club-At-Beach-House.h857962.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Miramar-Beach-Hotels-Embarc-Sandestin.h1054729.Hotel-Information) > > [Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Myers-Hotels-Pink-Shell-Beach-Resort-And-Marina.h15603.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Cocoa Beach Oceanfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cocoa-Beach-Hotels-Hilton-Cocoa-Beach-Oceanfront.h12537.Hotel-Information)
