My stay at the resort was really enjoyable, especially because of the clean and cozy rooms and the helpful staff. It was just a short walk to the beach, which made everything super convenient. While the bathroom amenities could use some updates, the overall value for the price was excellent. I appreciated the friendly service but did experience some noise from outside due to the ground-level rooms.

Barefoot Bay Resort is a charming, small hotel just a short walk from the beach and local attractions. The rooms are comfortable and well-equipped, plus the staff members are genuinely welcoming and eager to help. While the resort exudes a cozy and homey feel, guests may find the dining options nearby to be a bit limited at times.

This hidden gem has a cozy and welcoming vibe that makes you feel like part of the family, and it's so close to the beach and marina. The rooms are clean and the outdoor pool is fantastic for relaxing. However, be prepared for a bit of traffic noise and remember that some rooms can feel a little cramped. It's a charming place that feels more like home than a typical resort.

Barefoot Bay was a delightful surprise! The staff, especially Dave and Allison, made my experience feel welcoming and like home. However, the older rooms came with some drawbacks, including noisy air conditioning and insufficient water pressure in the shower. Plus, parking was inconvenient and added extra costs. Overall, it's a decent option if you're looking for a friendly vibe and great beach access, but don't expect top-notch amenities.

I had an amazing time at this hotel! The location is unbeatable, just steps away from the beach and surrounded by fantastic dining options. The rooms are clean and equipped with everything you might need, making for a really comfortable stay. The staff were incredibly helpful and made us feel welcome, but I wish the Wi-Fi was included with our stay as it felt a bit inconvenient having to pay extra for it.
