About this property

Welcome to Barefoot Bay Retreat — your relaxing slice of Cape May.

  • Welcome to Barefoot Bay Retreat — your relaxing slice of the Jersey Shore on the beautiful Delaware Bay.

    Tucked into a peaceful bayside neighborhood just moments from the water, this thoughtfully designed coastal retreat was created for slow mornings, unforgettable sunsets, beach days, and quality time with the people you love most. Enjoy the best of both worlds — peaceful Delaware Bay living just minutes from the energy, beaches, restaurants, shopping, and charm of Cape May.

    Spend your mornings sipping coffee on the covered front porch as the coastal breeze rolls in, then take a short stroll to the bay beach or nearby Harpoon’s on the Bay — a local favorite known for breathtaking sunsets, waterfront dining, and live entertainment. After a day exploring Cape May’s beaches, wineries, shops, and restaurants, come home to unwind on the spacious rear deck, enjoy dinner around the outdoor dining table that comfortably seats 8, or relax in the hammock surrounded by the sounds of summer.

    The property is professionally maintained by an organic pest management service to help keep the yard and outdoor living spaces comfortable throughout the season.

    Inside, the home blends comfort, warmth, and coastal charm with thoughtfully designed spaces perfect for families and groups. Barefoot Bay Retreat comfortably sleeps up to 9 guests and features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, central air conditioning, high-speed WiFi, streaming-enabled Smart TVs, comfortable memory foam mattresses, and endless hot water thanks to the tankless water heater — perfect after long beach days.

    The fully stocked kitchen is equipped with everything needed to prepare shared meals during your stay, whether you’re making a quick breakfast before the beach or gathering together for a relaxing dinner at home. Guests will find ample cookware, utensils, dinnerware, and plenty of glassware for everything from morning coffee to sunset cocktails on the deck.

    Guests are welcomed with a complimentary selection of locally roasted coffee and tea from Cape May Roasters to help start your stay with a relaxing taste of the shore.

    For added comfort and cleanliness, every mattress and pillow is enclosed in premium waterproof, dust mite-proof, and bed bug-proof protective covers.

    Sleeping Arrangements:
    • Primary Bedroom — King Bed + Double Sleeper Sofa
    • Bedroom 2 — Double Bed
    • Bedroom 3 — Double Bed + Twin Sleeper Sofa

    Guests also enjoy:
    • Large fenced and professionally landscaped yard
    • Covered front porch
    • Spacious rear deck with outdoor dining for 8
    • BBQ grill
    • Outdoor shower
    • Hammock
    • 8 beach chairs
    • Beach toys
    • Board games
    • 2 off-street parking spaces
    • Plenty of free street parking available, even during peak summer season

    Perfect for families, couples’ getaways, girls’ weekends, and multi-generational beach vacations, Barefoot Bay Retreat offers the laid-back atmosphere that makes the Delaware Bay side so special while still being just minutes from Cape May’s beaches, wineries, breweries, nightlife, shopping, and restaurants.

    True to its name, Barefoot Bay Retreat embraces relaxed coastal living — where sandy feet, cozy socks, and slow evenings feel right at home. In the spirit of keeping the home fresh, clean, and comfortable for everyone, we kindly encourage guests to leave outside shoes at the door and settle in barefoot, in socks, or with indoor slippers during their stay.

    Whether you’re watching sunsets over the bay, rinsing off in the outdoor shower after the beach, grilling dinner on the deck, or simply relaxing with family and friends in the coastal breeze, Barefoot Bay Retreat is the perfect place to slow down, recharge, and make lasting memories.

    • To allow guests flexibility and help maintain the highest level of cleanliness, guests are asked to bring their own sheets, pillowcases, and towels. Blankets, pillows, mattress protectors, and pillow protectors are provided.

Beautiful little house. Even the shed was clean! Plenty of room for the six of us to relax and get ready for our event. We walked to the beach several times with ease; under 10 min walk. Kitchen and dining were perfect. Supplies were plentiful and easy to find. Even the flowers were maintained so not an absentee owner which Unf we see a lot. Plenty of parking on the street. We would stay there again.
