If we could give this stay 100 stars, we would. Exceptional hosts who thought of everything, all those extra touches that make a place extra special - pool towels, coffee bar and supplies, sunscreen, beach chairs, extra blankets, and so much more - on top of a already wonderful property. The pool was a haven and the layout was perfect for our family.

We will absolutely be back to stay at Barefoot Dreams! Everything was a 15 minute drive max from the house. Our kids lived in the pool all week and said “this house was way cooler than our house at home”. The property had everything you could need while on vacation, and more!

This home is special to us and Gerry is the perfect Host. We Love the swimming pool and the cleanliness of everything. She has provided everything you need for a comfortable stay. This is our 5th time to stay here for our vacation and always notice the new upgrades each trip. This is my place for me to get out of Atlanta and get the Rest, Relaxation and Recovery I need. My little Yorkey Loves it too.

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.
