We had a wonderful stay at Barefoot Dreams! The house was clean and the hosts truly thought of all our beachy needs! I loved that there were chairs, towels, a wagon, umbrella, coolers, beach toys, and shark tooth sifters! When traveling in by plane with kids, it’s wonderful when all of that is provided for you! Communication for the stay was great and super responsive! The house was in a great area - 10 min to the beach, near tons of shops and restaurants, and in a safe neighborhood. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the Venice area. Thanks, Gerry!

Very thoughtfully stocked home. It was quiet at night and comfortable. The host was very responsive and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and loved the Brohard paw beach park! It is so wonderful to find a dog friendly rental. My only complaint is the pool deck. It is very rough and crumbling. It makes the pool area and patio almost unusable. You have to wear shoes or flips to be comfortable. I did not deduct any stars because it may not be bothersome to other guests.

Thank you for your review! As far as the pool deck, we’ve been in the process of getting estimates to replace the pebble stone. We have it scheduled to be replaced next month.

Perfect Getaway

The house is adorable and very clean. Quiet neighborhood, which was nice as well. Kids loved the pool, which was very clean and well maintained. It was also perfect for the beach, as it was close and perfectly stocked with all the essentials (wagon, beach towels, umbrella, shark teeth finding equipment etc). We very much enjoyed our vacation here - hosts were fantastic and communicative.

Clean, Convenient, Amazing Place!

We loved staying at Barefoot Dreams! The place was super clean, and very well thought out. Everything was there that we needed and it was very comfortable. Our kids loved taking the beach toys and shell sifters to the beach, and the umbrellas were very easy to set up. It was very close to everything Venice has to offer and an easy bike ride through the neighborhood to my in-laws house. The kids also really liked the pool lit up at night for an after dinner swim. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place for our trip to Venice!!
