Pictures completely deceiving

The pictures were misleading, as the space did not match what was advertised. There were no washcloths provided, which was an inconvenience. All the pots/pans were in need of replacement. Additionally, the washer and dryer were located outside, which was not mentioned in the listing. Overall, the stay did not meet my expectations.

Family Vacay

From start to finish this house was awesome! Very clean and organized. Really nice decor too! We were 3 adults and 3 kids. There was some toys for the kids and plenty of entertainment. The host was communicative after the hurricanes and we kept in touch through out my stay. We will certainly be returning.

The place was very open and had plenty of room for our family. Needed a little cosmetic touch up but over all very clean. Communication very quick response. Game room had a little smell but I guess expected from a detached room. Over all I rate it a 5.

This home was absolutely beautiful. The pool was very nice and kept the kids entertained the whole time. The hot tub was a relaxing touch. Located close to Anna Marie and plenty of food options nearby! The host was wonderful and communicated quickly. Upon arrival there was an internet issue (no fault of the host) and she had it fixed asap! We had an amazing stay and would definitely stay again.

My wife and I stayed for 31 days. We invited friends and family to come visit throughout our stay. Perfectly located a mile and a half from downtown Bradenton. Had a great time, heated pool and hot tub were fantastic. Take note that the 3rd and 4th bedroom are combined. Ideal for families with kids. We stil managed to make it work with four couples. Would definitely stay there again.

Amazing Property for Families

We just returned from our 1 week stay. We were two families (4 adults and 5 kids - ages 7,8,9,10,11). It was a perfect property for us and the kids had a blast. Everyone LOVED the pool and the hammocks in the backyard & the games room was a HUGE hit for the kids. If they were not in the pool, they were in there! Having an extra space for them to hang out was perfect!! The house was more spacious then the picture showed which was a pleasant surprise and there is lots of room for everyone to sleep. There were 4 Tommy Bahama beach chairs, umbreallas and some beach toys and lots of beach towels! The location is near all the amenities you could want - restaurants, grocery stores and pharmacies. It was near Anna Maria Island, however the traffic was terrible getting there! Our first day we left the house at 10:30am and it was bumper to bumper traffic most of the way! We quickly learned that the earlier we left, the better. We started leaving for the beach around 9:00am & stayed for the morning/early afternoon then returned for a pool afternoon and some shade while the sun was at it's hottest. It was perfect! We arrived late our first day (around 11pm) and the pool was at almost 100 degrees. I think there was a glitch with the warmer/hot tub portion. Teresa was great at handling it quickly as our kids were very excited to get swimming & it was just too hot to do that. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend!

B, we absolutely enjoyed our stay! lovely! Spent most of the time in pool due to red tide

Loved it! But….chairs were not usable on beach, all but 1 was broken. Very little TP, very little paper towels, no sponges. Umbrella was trashed, we left a new one. Ice maker has very small capacity. Locking doors is a trick! Need to pull really hard to lock. Garage door battery needed replaced. The bamboo floor mates hass pee stains. The rug I’m living room had urine smell. Water in shower takes 4 ever to heat up and shower head is crappy. pool filter was making very loud strange noises the last 3 days. Falling COCONUTS could really hurt someone Besides that, it was perfect!!!!manager was excellent communicator! THANK YOU! THANK YOU

My family and I had a lovely trip. The house was great, the backyard is really what makes it. You are close to everything especially Anna Maria Island, only about 20-25 minutes away. If you feel like staying in, the pool and hot tub are a great way to spend your trip. I brought my dog along who had suddenly been diagnosed with cancer two days before our trip. Unfortunately, the day we got there we had to make the decision to let him go. Thankfully, there was an emergency vet 1 minute from the house right on the corner that was extremely compassionate. While the situation wasn’t ideal, it was very helpful to have the vet so close. We made the best of the trip, and would definitely stay at the Barefoot Bungalow again!

Beautiful house. Great outdoor area.

The outdoor area is perfect and the house was clean and beautiful. However, the gorgeous kitchen was horribly equipped making cooking very challenging/frustrating. Something that could be easily fixed. Our only other surprise was that the game room is not part of the main house (it is in a detached garage). Looking back at the property details, we can see how it could be interpreted different ways. We were planning on the extra space for at least 1 of our grown children to sleep and that was not possible. We made due and had a great time overall.

Great house for large group!

Wonderful stay! Owner was very communicative. Lots of amenities to use like towels, laundry stuff, iron and things. Couldn’t figure out light switches since there are so many or how to turn on lights in pool or backyard. Fan in the bunk bed room made a loud noise when on and can get hot in there. There is a 10pm quiet, which is understandable but very strict even on a weekend. Hard to have a large group hanging out in backyard after 10. Great location with many things near by for groceries and things! Great stay overall.

Comfortable home - excellent property manager

This home offers a very comfortable stay in a location that's convenient to downtown Bradenton, the Riverwalk and Anna Maria Island. We were pleased with the cleanliness of the inside of the home. The outdoor space wasn't quite as pictured on the listing, but that was mostly rectified toward the end of our stay when a landscape maintenance company came out and did a great job with trimming and cleaning up the overgrown landscaping. We would have loved having it this way for the entire stay! The pool & spa are very nice, though I would say the photos on the listing don't accurately capture the current condition of the outdoor furniture. The wood chairs aren't very comfortable, and were very difficult for our parents (who are in their 70s) to sit on. We ended up ordering a couple of lounge chairs online and having them shipped through Amazon. On the inside of the home, there were several issues that needed attention (kitchen faucet needed repair, 2nd bath showerhead wasn't working, blender didn't work, pots & pans were in poor condition). Every single issue was addressed immediately by the owner/manager. Theresa was even so kind as to immediately ship us new cookware. All necessary repairs were taken care of, leading to a very comfortable stay. Definitely 5 stars for communication and responsiveness. Very, very comfortable beds and linens, which is always at the top of our list. The neighborhood is nice.. just a few blocks from the Manatee River. We enjoyed that there's a neighborhood park only a block away. This is a fabulous place to walk dogs, and we always felt very safe in this neighborhood. Other positives of this property are that you have extra refrigerator and freezer space in the game room area, fka the garage. You don't realize how important this is until you stay in a rental that only has one fridge! Another big plus here is that we literally didn't see ONE insect, spider, or any other creepy crawlies inside this home during our entire 6 week stay! Just a few things prevented us from giving this home a 5 star rating. As other reviews mentioned, the inside of the dishwasher had quite a bit of mold. We cleaned it at the beginning of our stay (took only about 10 minutes and some elbow grease to get rid of the mold), but I can see how it will continue to be a problem until it's replaced, as it remains full of water at the end of the cycle. Overall, very pleased with our stay and would definitely love to stay here again in the future!
