Beautiful Stay!

The home had everything we could ask for and more. It was in a great location, beautiful quiet spot. It had so many amazing amenities and the house came stocked with goodies that you don’t normally get. The owners were amazing! If I had questions they would respond quickly and were very inviting. I would definitely book again.

The house is perfect for a small group. It has everything you might need. All of the beach gear was much appreciated! The lanai area and pool was our favorite spot to be no matter the time of day. Each bed was very comfortable! We can’t wait to return.

Amazing Property!

They thought of everything. We use Vrbo a lot for vacations and this is the only time we didn’t need to buy a thing besides our grocery run down, especially on a beach vacation. The property has everything it says and then some. Location is perfect for hitting all the area beaches that we love.

A Gem!

Barefoot Dreams was the perfect setup for our family of four! The owners thought of everything you might need for your stay, down to the smallest detail! We felt so welcomed! We could hop in the car for about a ten minute drive to Venice Beach and enjoy the beach or hop in the pool when “at home”. We couldn’t have asked for a better space and experience for our relaxing week away!

Perfect House in Venice, FL

We stayed at Barefoot Dreams for a week and we wish we could have stayed longer. The house was perfect and had everything to make our stay feel like home. The hosts Gerry & Dennis were very nice and checked with us to make sure we were settled in or needed anything. The house was very close to the beach, restaurants, and downtown Venice. Which we took advantage of nearly every day. Very relaxing neighborhood away from major roads. Would stay there again. Glenn and Marianne
