Loved It!

This house was the perfect stay for a beach getaway in Venice! The neighborhood was peaceful. The home was stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking your food, time at the beach, and enjoying the pool. The owners have thought of the smallest details and the house was beautifully themed for a relaxing beach trip. We would love to stay here again!

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!

Wonderful, relaxing stay at Barefoot Dreams!

My husband, parents, and my dog and I had the perfect time in Venice at Barefoot Dreams. Gerry was so communicative. We had zero issues at the house. We felt right at home! The house has plenty of living space to spread out and is stocked better than my own home! It is close to everything you could need and a short drive to the beach. Most mornings we would take to dog the 5-minute drive to Shamrock park for a gorgeous walk along the Venetian Waterway. The kitchen was great for cooking ANY meal at home. They have everything! And the coffee bar was a really nice touch. The attention to detail here was incredibly thoughtful. And the beds were super comfortable. We highly recommend Barefoot Dreams and we hope to book again in the future!

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

Beautiful Home in Venice Florida

Without a doubt the nicest place we have stayed in the gulf coast area. Home was beautiful, spacious, comfortable, great beds, spotless bathrooms, family room and Florida room were pleasant to lounge in. The pool in the backyard is new and clean and very refreshing. Very close to Venice beach and just 25 minutes or so to Crescent Beach in Siesta Key. We went to both beaches multiple times. Garage was very clean, great washer and dryer, and new beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach cart, and clean beach coolers. Even had 4 different size fishing rods on wall! Neighborhood was quiet, safe and the neighbors were friendly too. One lady stopped to chat and she was very welcoming. Venice was a great town to visit as well. We happened to be there for the Sun Festival and the locals were all there and they were friendly! Again, we had a great week and we will definitely come back to this home if it's available next time we come to the Venice FL area!

Our family has stayed at many short term rentals and decided that this was one of the best ever. We kept saying "This is the perfect place to stay". They really did a nice job decorating and making sure you have EVERYTHING you need. And then some. Lots of small extras that you wouldn't expect, and you don't need to go out to get all the little things you need for a home. Plenty of everything and the coffee bar was GREAT. So easy to make coffee throughout the day. Fantastic communication from the host, perfect location and nice pool to cool off. Overall, we LOVED it and think you should choose to stay here for your next trip. Thanks for hosting us! :)

Nice Home Close to Beaches

Communication with host was superb, waiting no more than a few minutes for a response each time. Home was newly updated throughout, inside and out. Property was very well stocked with ample amounts products for use, towels, pillows, bedding, etc. The home felt spacious especially with the Florida Room space available. The pool was a good size and all of the exterior living space was wonderful. Location to several beaches 15 minutes away or less allowed us to explore many beaches during our 4 day stay. I will mention this home is one of the nicest on the block and in the neighborhood. It appears this neighborhood has no HOA and you do see some evidence of that with other homes nearby, but we had no incidents or issues with neighbors. Would definitely stay again!
