Why the Owner Chose Barefoot Beach Resort
We bought here because of the location. It has the best of both worlds. The ocean across the street and the intercoastal waters behind. The intercostal provides an opportunity to view some of Florida's best sightings, such as the manatees. It is also a great place for people to fish.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Many people say they want Gulf side which there is no doubt is beautiful. However there is more to see and do on the intercoastal side. For instance, at night the beach is dark but on the intercoastal side there are boats, dolphins, manatees and many other birds and fish even at night. If you are lucky to go around Christmas, there is even a boat parade where the boats go by all decked out in lights for a competition.
Publix grocery store, Beales plus their outlet, Ross, Steinmart, Bank, Dollar Tree, Chinese Buffet, movie theatres. This mall has it all. If you like to shop you have to check out Steinmart. Very easy
Saturdays and Sundays. Parking $1.00 Great vegetables. Huge so bring walking shoes. Go early for best selection.
24hr/7 days week Variety store. Beer, wine, bread and other basics such as milk and eggs
Visit the legendary Pirate John's getaway. Legend has it that after retiring the pirate buried his treasure in this area only to loose it all to a hurricane that wiped out the land and created a new w
