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 intercoastal 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.
I also love the fact that it is quiet. The beach does not have high traffic like Clearwater does. Walking on the beach in the am is rejuvenating. Yoga and Zumba are offered in the town hall next door so give it a try!

The Unique Benefits at this Condo

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.
Where we are is truly one of the more quiet and peaceful areas in the complex which is something I value greatly when I am there.

Owner's Map of Barefoot Beach Resort

Hello and thank you for looking at our little piece of paradise. This is our escape from the winters of Canada and when we need to rejuvenate ourselves. I am a RN and my spouse is self-employed.
We hope that our paradise will be yours as well. We have 3 young boys and they love going to Florida. The pool, beach and wildlife provides for them something the city just can not. I simply love the ocean and sun.

5/5

Great location. Clean and spacious for 3.

Guest: Canuck travellers (Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada)
Date of Stay: 04/22/10 Review Submitted: 05/04/10

3 of us stayed here in late April 2010. This one bedroom unit was perfect for my wife & I, and our 7 year old son. The condo was completely furnished and stocked with everything you could need - even pool and beach toys. The pool area is very nice with plenty of lounge chairs. The pool is heated so always warm enough. Gas BBQ's on the property make it easy to have a nice meal at home. Indian Shores is located in a less congested part of Gulf Boulevard, halfway between St. Pete Beach and Clearwater. There are tons of things to do and places to explore. I would highly recommend Barefoot Beach for a family beach holiday. p.s. Lori was very nice to deal with and provided lots of advice about the area (shopping, groceries etc.)
