About this property

Lush Tropical Resort Getaway on Florida's Gulf Coast

SOME DATES MAY HAVE AN ADDITIONAL DISCOUNT AVAILABLE - CONTACT ME TO ASK!

You get a nice tropical resort feel in this ground floor (no stairs or elevator!) condo. It's just a short walk to the beach, and the 5 acre low-rise resort boasts a large pool and lush gardens. This unit is one of the closest units to the heated pool, but it's around a corner, so you're as close to the pool as you can get, without the pool noise.

You also get a completely private and fenced-in back patio with a table and chairs where you can sit outside and enjoy your morning coffee, an evening drink or just relax in the warm weather.

You can use the fully appointed kitchen or you can BBQ just outside. Included is internet access, plenty of TV channels and free long distance calling anywhere in the U.S. or Canada. The condo is clean and freshly renovated with granite counters, crown molding and ceramic floors. Two bedrooms, and it has comfortable new mattress beds in both bedrooms.

This unit is family friendly. It includes a pack-and-play crib and high chair - free for you to use if you need it. It's also tucked away in a quiet part of the complex away from the busy road - plus the fenced-in yard and lack of stairs to climb makes nice and safe for kids.

For this unit, your rent includes access to an on-site helpful front office. They are there to help you with any problems or questions and make your vacation as stress free as possible. Also includes free access to a local fitness center and free use of bikes.

There are excellent restaurants and family friendly entertainment options (Smuggler’s Cove Adventure Golf) within walking distance. A short drive to Clearwater Beach or John’s Pass allows you to experience the area’s most popular attractions.

Great location with all the amenities needed for a beach-break

Two couples + a mother/daughter visit over the 3-night stay was well accommodated by this spacious property, affording a beautiful pool area, walking distance to excellent dining & the beach. The overall property is well maintained and this particular unit would benefit from new mattresses in both bedrooms and attention to the bathroom shower. Will certainly be on our list for a return trip!

Great Location, Good Condo

Perfectly located. Very clean upon arrival. The unit is a touch dated and there were a couple minor issues but overall very solid. If you need a 2 bdrm apt in Indian Rocks Beach area, it's a solid choice. Being located right next to Salt Rock Grill helps as well!

Love the resort

Returned back to resort from previous stays. Love the resort, pool and its location. This unit fell short on only having two functioning beach chairs and terrible water pressure along with hot water. Seems like hot water is coming from far away and better use it quick before it runs out. Will return to this resort.

Hi Melissa, I apologize that your stay wasn't perfect. The unit has an instant hot water heater which should be quick and never run out. We have called in a technician to troubleshoot and repair the hot water issues. We are glad you enjoyed the resort and hope you give us another chance in the future!

New Year's Getaway

Selected this property for a few day's stay to celebrate the New Year. Unit was as advertised...perhaps better. The condo was larger than expected, with plenty of room for two teens. Unit was ultra clean, had a nice sized deck with easy access to the pool. Weather was a bit cool early on, but kids enjoyed the heated pool. Access to the beach (across Gulf Blvd.) was easier than expected and the beach is great for walking and playing around. Would stay there again and recommend to friends and other family members. There is always room for improvement...the unit could use a few more kitchen items - another 4-set of dishes would do the trick, and, this is a personal thing - both my wife and I prefer a firm, firm mattress...the ones here were super soft.

Great short stay across the street from the beach

I’d like to say the communication and understanding by the owners was fantastic. The property itself is older but very well maintained. The four days we spent there, people were constantly maintaining the property. You could not ask for more. Restaurants are close by, a great beach, lots of activities for kids and adults alike. Every time we come to the area, it is never long enough. If you want a great, no hassle stay in a very clean and well maintained location, you can not go wrong here.

Short notice stay; EXCELLENCE on experience!

After deciding to forgo Universal in light of increasing COVID numbers and spending the end of our holiday at the beach, short notice put the hustle on! We were beyond lucky to find this hidden gem steps from the beach and in a quiet area. With a decent price for last minute we could not have been happier! Would definitely stay again and again!

Beach vacation

The location is great for easy access to walk to the beach! The white sand and clean water is amazing! It’s so scenic. I highly recommend the mini golf which is within walking distance. The unit is cute and cozy - perfect for a beach getaway. The bedrooms were clean and decor had been updated. For our family of four it would have been nice to have one more comfy place to sit in the living room. And the sofa bed is not usable as a bed…very old, and thin mattress. Overall it was a nice place and great location.

Ups and downs

The overall property was awesome! Great location and pool. Our room however had many crumbs and cheese balls all over the place. And the living room furniture seemed very old and was also uncomfortable! Pull out couch was like sleeping on an oven mitt. If you’re looking for a cheap place to sleep and get to the beach easily, it works great!

My girlfriend and I had an amazing time. The condo was perfect. Since we flew we did not bring beach towels, chairs or a beach umbrella. They were included which to me is incredibly thoughtful and convenient. We arrived late but I called ahead of time to make arrangements to get our key after office hours. If you're thinking of staying at Barefoot resort, do it. You will not be disappointed.

Heated pool, great beach access, great location!

The property was great for my husband and me to get away for a week. The unit was close to both the pool and the water which was very nice for the days we spent at the pool. And the pool was heated so it was nice and warm - wonderful to hang out in!! There was plenty of space in the unit and the sunroom was just an added bonus. We didn't spend any time in the private courtyard but there was a table & chairs to do so. The location was great and we could walk to several restaurants and bars. The beach access was literally across the street and very easy to get to. The unit could use a really good deep cleaning but overall, it was good. There were plenty of towels (including pool towels) and things like dishsoap, dishwasher tablets, soap, paper towels, etc. Probably not enough for a large family all week but it was nicely stocked! I would rent this property again.

About the host

Hosted by Mark Staecker

Host profile image

We live in Canada and have two young kids. We enjoy taking family beach vacations in Florida when the weather starts getting cool up here. We'll sometimes do a day trip to Disney from our condo, but for us, the highlight of Florida is always Florida's beautiful beaches and warm pool weather. We like a lot of the activities that you can only enjoy along the water - things like boat tours and deep sea fishing

Why they chose this property

We found the Barefoot Beach Resort while on vacation in the area. We came back a few times and loved the resort so much that we jumped on the opportunity when one of the best units in the complex came up for sale. Now we go down often - and still love it.

What makes this property unique

We lived in the Clearwater – St. Pete’s area for years before moving back home to Canada (and before having kids) so we are very familiar with this area. When we lived in Florida, Indian Shores was always our favorite stretch of beach because it has beautiful sand and is quieter than some of the tourist-packed stretches of beach (like Clearwater Beach.) In our opinion, it's probably the nicest beach in the area. It's also close to John's Pass which is an area we love for entertainment, bars and restaurants.
