Pros:

Our stay at Barefoot Bay was an exceptional one and provided a genuine beach feel! The property is very clean and well kept. Stacey, the owner, is superb and welcoming, and the location on the water with the marina across the street, and the pier and beach just a short walk away is ideal. We truly enjoyed our time here and look forward to staying here again when we visit Clearwater Beach.

Pros:

The owner of BareFoot Bay, treats her quests like family. She is the sweetest person I have ever met running a Motel. You can't beat the price either. I have been coming there for the past 12 years and plan to go back again.

Pros:

It’s a tiny older motel. But if you’re looking for a place to lay your head at night, surrounded by the best amenities, any full-scale resort has to offer. This is the place. It’s a small pool, and there were never more than six people in it whenever we were here. Food and shopping are within 400 feet, including boat rentals, JetSki rentals, fishing off the pier, an entire beach, an ice cream shop, ten world-class bars, and some world-class blowup romper room Disneyland for the kids. If you forget something, there’s a two-story Walgreens 100 feet from the motel with everything you could possibly need. We met the owner/Parking enforcement and she is one of the nicest people you could ever meet.

Pros:

They claim to be a marina and they have no access to marina. I ask the same day I booked to cancel my reservation Because they don’t have the marina. But they are all about the money and didn’t want to cancel, I was forced to stay there with my truck & vessel and they didn’t have parking for me & my trailer. They Send me to parking & pay $10 hr four the time of my stay. Completely a bad experience
