Checked in on us to see if everything was ok and if we needed anything. We have stayed at a lot of vacation rentals. This home was stocked exceptionally well. If you forgot anything or needed something it was more than likely there. We brought beach chairs and sifters but Loved having use of the beach wagon and extra sifters when going to beach. We enjoyed our stay. ##### Jamie S. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill C.

This place is so much more than just a vacation rental—it felt like home.The layout was great and the kitchen was fully stocked. Everything we needed for the beach was there to use. Every little detail was clearly thought through, and it made a big difference.The outdoor space deserves its own shoutout. We felt like we had our own little retreat after a day at the beach. Also, major bonus points to the host—so helpful, quick to respond, and genuinely made us feel taken care of. It’s rare to find that kind of hospitality.We’re already talking about coming back. If you’re on the fence—don’t be. Book it. You won’t regret ##### Jill C. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalia V.

My husband, parents, and my dog and I had the perfect time in Venice at Barefoot Dreams. Gerry was so communicative. We had zero issues at the house. We felt right at home! The house has plenty of living space to spread out and is stocked better than my own home! It is close to everything you could need and a short drive to the beach. Most mornings we would take to dog the 5-minute drive to Shamrock park for a gorgeous walk along the Venetian Waterway. The kitchen was great for cooking ANY meal at home. They have everything! And the coffee bar was a really nice touch. The attention to detail here was incredibly thoughtful. And the beds were super comfortable. We highly recommend Barefoot Dreams and we hope to book again in the future! ##### Natalia V. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David H.

Home was beautiful, spacious, comfortable, great beds, spotless bathrooms, family room and Florida room were pleasant to lounge in. The pool in the backyard is new and clean and very refreshing. Very close to Venice beach and just 25 minutes or so to Crescent Beach in Siesta Key. We went to both beaches multiple times. Garage was very clean, great washer and dryer, and new beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach cart, and clean beach coolers. Even had 4 different size fishing rods on wall! Neighborhood was quiet, safe and the neighbors were friendly too. One lady stopped to chat and she was very welcoming. Venice was a great town to visit as well. We happened to be there for the Sun Festival and the locals were all there and they were friendly! Again, we had a great week and we will definitely come back to this home if it's available next time we come to the Venice FL area! ##### David H.

Super clean, loved the decor, and had anything you could possibly need whether staying the house or for days at the beach. Would definitely stay again next time we go to Venice. ##### Hollie W.
