Sebastian stay

This property was close to our family and made our commute to and from very easy. The house was very well kept and clean, with many amenities which made it comfortable. Our hosts were gracious and offered us access to anything there. It was our first stay in Barefoot Bay, and we hope it will not be our last. Thank you so much!

Cute beach style home

We enjoyed our stay very much. Just prior to our arrival there was an issue with the spare bath. Parts were not expected to arrive before we left. The parts arrived sooner than expected. Dale contacted us and asked if we would like to have maintenance do the repairs. We were traveling with my soon to be 90 year old mother. The second bath was needed. Dale contacted the maintenance man and it was repaired that day we are very appreciative of this they could have waited until we left but they did not. Thank you for being conscience of our need
