Great location, lots of open space for gathering with a large group. The kitchen is well equipped. We loved the ability to all sit on the porch together and see/hear the water. Easy access to the beach and lots of beach toys for kids and some chairs for the adults to enjoy. We would definitely stay again. Carla was great!

Beautiful home close to the beach! Spacious, comfy, loaded with everything you need- tons of storage. This was our first year on the island & we loved it. We are already looking at next years dates! Owners are helpful & respond quickly! Our only suggestion is maybe another fridge, even a mini fridge. Our family of 11 had a heard time putting a week’s worth of food in fridge. Haha!

Fantastic!

This house is wonderful! The best part is the view. You can see and hear the ocean from the porch, kitchen table while eating, and family room while watching TV. It makes it still feel like you’re on a special vacation even when you’re back at the house. The rockers and side tables on the porch are a perfect touch for sitting outside. The walk to the beach is easy with the paved street and a short clear sandy path of sand. The house is well stocked for all types of cooking. The beds are all comfortable and linens were clean. The towels are soft and in good condition. The house was clean and smelled good. There are so many extras in the house like beach towels, blankets, fans, games, and night lights. A lot of extra consumables were provided as well which was a very kind bonus. Communication with the owners was always easy with a quick and polite response. I loved this house and would recommend it to anyone!

Loved It!

We loved our time at Barefoot Bungalow! The view from the deck SPECTACULAR! The house is exactly as described. It was exceptionally clean, with a very well stocked kitchen, open living areas with plenty of space, and comfy beds. The location is wonderful. Just steps from the private beach and walking distance from many Island venues. Carla and Jason are fabulous hosts who respond promptly to any questions. Also, they have provided extras to add to your stay such as, beach towels, beach chairs & toys, games, etc. I would highly recommend staying at Barefoot Bungalow.

Repeat customer

This was our second time staying at Barefoot Bungalow. As with the first time, Carla and Jason were very easy to work with and included some very appreciated "extras" for our stay. We discovered the coffee maker was not working during our stay, but the hosts were very responsive and we had a new coffee pot within an hour or so. The house is fantastic with lots of space and close to the beach. We love that it is dog friendly and has a large enclosed deck for them to spend time just enjoying the sights and sounds with us. The dining room table is HUGE which is great for our family to use for playing a variety of card games in the evening. Thank you Carla and Jason for allowing us to share your home!
