I came with a group of my son’s HS Senior friends. The house and location was great, away from the business of Gulf Shores, basically had the beach to ourselves, and the home had all the things needed to keep a group of high school boys entertained and not wanting to go anywhere else which I loved!!!

Loved!

This was a perfect beach house for our family! The view of the ocean as soon as you walk through the doors is stunning and all the bedrooms are comfortable. Everything is decorated so well with tons of hand painted artwork. We will definitely be back!

Excellent home and accommodations with great space and location. Very quietly located some 20 plus minutes back into Gulf Shores. Perfect for family and more quiet and less crowded down time!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Barefoot Beach

We have a group of 8 ladies from Louisiana that have a girl's trip every year. This is our 3rd year at this house and can't wait until next year. The beach is so close. We love all the space and the back porch

We loved barefoot beach!

Me and my 11 friends loved barefoot beach so much. We loved how secluded it was and the views were amazing. We had no trouble checking in or out and the house was very clean. There was also a storage shed with lots of fun beach toys that we were pleasantly surprised to find. I will keep barefoot beach in mind for future vacations!

Great house and location

The house was just as described in the listing. Great location. We’ve stayed in several homes in Fort Morgan and this one is one of our favorites! We would definitely rent again. We had 6 adults which is plenty for the size of the house.

Incredible view

Barefoot Beach is an adorable house right on the water - on deck, in the living room or front bedrooms you have the best beach view ever. The decor is cute - property matched its pictures. We enjoyed the open kitchen with lots of counter space. We also slept well on comfy mattresses. The whole place was clean clean clean.

Memories Made

Our overall stay was wonderful!!!!! We had so much fun and the house was great. The only thing was that the beds were listed as "Queens" and they were not. I have a queen bed at home and these beds were smaller.

Perfect peaceful getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at Barefoot Beach! We stayed with our friends and their kids (8 people total) and I’m not sure who had more fun! The kids loved being able to just go outside and play safely and within view of the house at all times. The layout of the house is perfect for two families giving enough separation but also plenty common space to hangout with everyone. The beach was not crowded at all especially considering it was spring break. The storage room offered all the beach toys and chairs that we needed along with a grill for dinners. Even when it was raining, we enjoyed hanging out under the house on the swing & playing games. We’ve already started planning our next visit!

Beautifully furnished and decorated beach home!

We were quite pleased with how up to date and modern everything was. Equipped with everything we needed and the outdoor furniture (including a swing!) was very high quality. Love the split floor plan and that the two “main” bedrooms have sliding doors that lead to the deck with an amazing beach view. My only issue was the property description in the listing said QUEEN bed in each of the two main bedrooms; they actually seem to be double, not queen beds. We didn’t actually measure…….but the bed was too small for my husband and I to be able to share and I ended up sleeping in one of the other bedrooms. Thank goodness there were plenty of beds to choose from!

Location/location/location

Beachfront is the word to describe the location. This house is one of the cleanest, crispest VRBO we have ever stayed in. Private beach with dolphins in front of us and Navy Jets above us. Fun restaurant choices within minutes. Everything you would need within 30 minutes in Gulf Shores. This is a shallow beach so great for smaller kids. Would stay here again and be more prepared. There are no soaps-of any kind /no paper products/no kitchen towels or dish towels(had to use bath wash cloths and bath hand towels) / no beach towles/ the beach supplies were plentiful but mostly broken. Beautiful accommodations with a few glitches. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful beach & view, but short on necessities

We loved the house--there was plenty of space for our family of 8 adults. The view was gorgeous and we enjoyed the privacy of being further down the peninsula. The only negative was that it wasn't made clear that the owners only provided a "starter kit" for things like toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher pods, etc. There also wasn't any coffee filters or napkins. If we had known ahead of time, we would have purchased these with the groceries we picked up before check in. We ended up having to make a special trip back to town to get enough to make it through our stay.

Loved the house! Did NOT love the management company

I want to start by saying that this review in no way has anything to do with the property itself or the owners of the house. The house itself was wonderful. It was very nicely updated and renovated. The kitchen is spacious and the house had everything that was needed for the entire trip. The day of check-in we arrived to the house right at 4pm like the directions stated. When we walked in there was a large garbage bag on one of the couches with sheets. The sheets smelled horribly of cigarette smoke. No bed was made, and pillows were all over the floors in the bedrooms. We immediately notified vacasa who stated they would send over the manager. The manager came and she was very polite and apologized but did not have sheets to replace the ones in the garbage bags. She left and returned with more sheets in a garbage bag that also smelled of smoke. We decided at that point because it was getting later in the night that we would wash all the sheets ourselves and make up the beds. There was also noted to be food on the baseboards from the previous guest that had not been cleaned. The main complaint was the temperature in the house never got below 80 degrees even at night. Maintenance came and said everything was fine. Vacasa did not try to help in the situation at all. We would rent the house again but only under different management.

The house is great!!! Vacasa has room for improvement though.

The house itself is pretty great and the location was perfect for a quiet family vacation away from crowds! What I’d recommend to other guests: bring your own toilet paper, kitchen towels, hand soap, dishwasher detergent (unless one pod is enough), trash bags, and kitchen scissors. Also know that beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys, and shade/tent are not provided. (Some houses include those- the house next door included a whole assortment of toys). Yes, you can see oil rigs in the distance but in September we had a good half mile of beach to ourselves- only the next door neighbor was out with us for a bit of time. I’ll take oil rigs over crowds any day. As for Vacasa (the company running it)… - They were not in tune with the house inventory. Some answers were inaccurate as to what’s included. - They gave no real help ahead-of-time when I told them Google maps didn’t work with the provided address. They just emailed me back the very same address I’d just told them didn’t work, and basically said you’re welcome. 🤦🏻‍♀️ This interaction pretty much told me we’re on our own with problems and we better hope we don’t have any! Luckily I figured out Apple Maps did work, which is how we got there. Same thing happened with our photographer too but luckily she had an iPhone as well for Apple Maps. For non-apple users they should really provide a pin for google maps. - They were slow and unhelpful when we had wifi trouble and we luckily ended up fixing it on our own. This is pretty much what I figured would happen if we had an issue. - Every Vrbo/AirB&B we’ve done with individuals has been over-the-top fantastic on the service end, and they of course know their house and its inventory well. Our interaction with Vacasa was as expected… minimal and a fend-for-yourself sort of thing. They’d always end it super friendly saying to be sure to let them know if they could do anything else, even though they hadn’t actually done what we asked. Overall the house was a repeater, though I’d definitely add a few things to it if we were the owners, and the experience would be better if it were owned by an individual rather than Vacasa. If I owned it I’d include a couple board games, beach chairs, beach toys, a beach trolly, a pen for the guest book (we couldn’t sign), new kitchen scissors, and upgrade the bathroom towels (one had a big hole, none were soft). We’d also do some sort of shade for the deck, which gets very hot, so just plan on bringing a spare pair of flip flops left out strictly for deck walking. You really can’t beat the location if you want a quiet house without crowds, just know you can’t count on customer service at all so come prepared to fend for yourself!

Beautiful house on the beach

What a beautiful house right on the beach. The kitchen was stocked with what we needed to cook, the bathrooms were also stocked well. The beds were comfortable and well placed. I was there with 5 of my friends on a girls getaway in October. Just a great place to stay!!
