This was one of my favorite vacations. The host is very responsive and the house was beautiful. The short walk to the beach was so nice and I felt very safe. There is also a little restaurant/bar on the direct corner that’s very nice and my son said the fish tacos were the best he’s ever had. I highly recommend this house for your stay.

Rooms were nice and clean, the bunk bed room had space for a pack and play for our one year old to sleep in so that was a big plus. The closest public beach access is really close but only stairs for beach access, so be ready to carry any beach wagons. Luckily the other beach accesses up the road both are both stairs and walkouts. Definitely looking forward to staying here again in the future.

Overall our large blended family had a great time staying here. It accommodated us all quite nicely and despite hurricane Debbie trying to dampen our spirits, we made the most of our time due to everything being so close (walkable and driveable). The beach was right across the street which was a huge win and we spent as much time as possible there during the day soaking up what sun we could and at night checking for ghost crabs and sea turtles. We enjoyed some family card nights and game time around the upstairs kitchen table and the kids enjoyed putting puzzles together. The beds were all very comfortable and allowed for some rejuvenating for the next day. The few little hiccups we had were quickly addressed and the hosts were incredibly accommodating and helpful.

Really great property, easy walk to the beach. Nice neighborhood. Would rent again.

We had so much fun. The property was perfect for our large group. We rented both floors, but we were able to have meals together and hang out in the house and on the deck together.
Because the beach is just a very short walk, we could hang out there all day and if someone needed to go back to the house they could. It was perfection.

Great location! Very nice and comfortable stay. Had both duplexes and there was plenty of room for the 14 of us.

Super close to beach access and plenty of room for our large party to spread out. We especially liked the swinging chairs and deck seating.

This property worked perfect for us, it gave each family their own privacy with multiple bedrooms but also plenty of space inside and out to come together. Very clean with plenty of included amenities. Homeowner was very responsive and accommodating!

This was a great place to stay. As noted, there are 2 units, one is upstairs, the other downstairs. We came with two families and it was perfect. We had plenty of showers for everyone. The kids (ages 6-13) loved the selection of board games. We loved how close it is to the beach. We were able to walk to restaurants, shopping, and the post office without a problem. I recommend staying here if you want to be close to everything, including the beach.

We loved the property! Plenty of parking and plenty of space. Loved our little get away and we would definitely book this house again if/when we visit the OBX.

The property was fairly clean. My husband fixed the dish washer that was leaking and vacuumed the air filter that was caked with dirt.(I know had we called the owner he would have been on top of it) Overall it was a great place to stay! Everything was walking distance and the beach was awesome! It was great having a yard for the kids to play in. We really had a great time.

We had a great experience and time in OBX. Easy check in and out! Everything was nice, most kitchen appliances you need was on hand. There was some bugs, we had a few in a group that wasn’t pleased with that, but I did contact the owner and they said they would send someone out. We didn’t understand that the top floor did not connect but it worked out. Over all a great time and everyone loved the corn hole game
10.0
Overall, our trip was a blast. House was big enough to accommodate all of us with plenty of space. Close to popular attractions and the ocean. The brooms to clean the floors could use a replacement. It might can benefit from a deep cleaning and organization of the games. The checkout process was easy to follow.

My family and I love this rental and will be staying here each time we visit. This was our first visit to OBX but definitely not the last. The owner is very helpful and the rental was clean, well stocked and very comfortable. Our adult children and grandchildren (8-18) loved going to the beach several times a day - only 300 feet away. Located near several restaurants, grocery stores and shopping for convenience and ease. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the beach and soak up the sun this is a wonderful place to stay. As my granddaughters say 'my heart is in OBX'. Thank you Raffaella for sharing your rental with us.

My family and I wanted to plan a special weekend getaway to celebrate my grandma's 90th birthday! Now that all of her grandchildren are grown with families of their own, it's gotten harder and harder to accommodate all of us when we want to vacation or get away together. I came across Barefootin' and instantly got excited since the lower level didn't have any stairs, which would be great for our grandma. The closeness to the beach, to restaurants and the sights was amazing and the spacing of the duplex (we rented both the upper and lower levels) was just what we needed - the home literally had exactly the spacing we needed to be all together for such a special occasion. We were also thrilled that the weather was good for almost the entire weekend, which is a treat this late in October. Our host was fabulous, gracious, and kind and her communication was wonderful. We all loved that linens were provided (apart from beach towels) and both levels were well appointed. Thank you for the part you played in the incredible memories we made celebrating the matriarch of our family whom we adore.

We rented both levels of the property. The check-in process was easy. As stated, it is within walking distance to the beach and restaurants which is nice. Wi-Fi provided worked well. We were a bit disappointed with the quality of beach chairs (mildew stains, rusted) provided for our use. We almost ran out of toilet paper and it seemed to be the cheapest quality provided. Some areas of the home seemed like they could have definitely been cleaned better. Some blinds were broken and the outer downstairs door needed to be pulled up to latch correctly. The beds and linens were clean. Cute beach theme decor. No major issues to report, but more of a 4/5 experience in my opinion.

Location, location, location and by renting both floors, this property gave 11 of us plenty of room to spread out in comfort.
Clean & kitchen pretty well stocked. We had a hick-up with a drain, and Raffaella was "on it" immediately and situation was resolved quickly. Will certainly rent again. We all had a wonderful time!

This was my first time to the OBX and it was great! You cannot beat this property and the location. Close to the beach, restaurants, shops, everything you’d need. It also centrally located so you can get to almost anywhere really easily. Owner was great to work with and responded almost immediately to any questions I had . I would definitely recommend this place!
6.0
Let’s start with the good: the hosts were responsive and seem like nice people who wanted us to have an enjoyable stay.
It was a one-block walk to the beach.
The bad news: the place felt pretty gross when we arrived— we Clorox wiped it when we got there, and we Clorox wiped it when we left; j am confident we left it cleaner than when we got there.
A couple of dangerous things:
The light fixture in one of the bedrooms was completely shattered when we arrived. Kids were staying in that room, and the sharp glass light could be reached from the top bunk. Extremely dangerous for our kids.
One of the boards on the top stairs of the deck was completely loose— I stepped on it and almost fell down the stairs.
We told the host about these and they were apologetic; I sure hope they get fixed before the next guests arrive. As I said, they seemed very nice and responsive, but unfortunately that doesn’t fix our disappointing stay.
We were really disappointed in the following:
Grill was out of propane— extra tank was empty. The host did say we could go to get more and they’d reimburse us, but we were in the middle of cooking dinner, so that wasn’t possible.
Bathroom light in hall bathroom flashes (upstairs)
Towel bar in the bathroom is coming off the wall (upstairs)
Blinds in the guest room— rod doesn’t turn up and down (upstairs)
Upstairs big blinds are missing a piece on the left side (bottom)
TV remote power button didn’t work (upstairs) and there was no power button on the tv
Almost all the games were missing pieces and couldn’t be played
The kitchen blinds downstairs had gross brown splatters on them (I took pics but I don’t think I can upload them here)
In addition, we killed six giant cockroaches while we were there, both upstairs and down (despite us seeing frequently and storing food securely). There were also a ton of ants downstairs.
Overall, I felt pretty gross staying there and tried to stay out of the downstairs as much as possible. The upstairs felt a lot newer and cleaner.
As far as the location, it was ok— the part of the beach that was accessible required climbing up and down tons of stairs. The actual beach was also kind of steep, making it hard for my little kids to play in the water (the waves rushing back out kept knocking them over).
Next time we come, we will find somewhere that is cleaner and in better repair AND is near a more flat part of the beach. Wouldn’t stay here again

There are two rental units- upstairs and down. You can rent one at a time or both. Both units are approximately the same size and accommodations. It is about a 3 minute walk to the beach and a perfect location near restaurants also. The home provides an outdoor shower, beach toys and chairs, which is very convenient. We stayed with two other families, plus my family. We had a fantastic time and would recommend this home to anyone.

We do a big family vacation every couple of years. It’s multiple families coming together from different places. Ages from 5 to 79 this year. The house worked out well for us. We had fun time. The closeness to the beach was great. Someone was on the beach everyday. Overall we enjoyed our stay!
10.0
This is a condo with two separate units, and the two units do not attach from the inside. Our group didn't have any issues with that, it was easy to access both units from the outside, provided two kitchens/living spaces and created more privacy for our group. We had 11 adults stay (4 couples and 3 individuals) and it was a great fit. The location was definitely the high point— just a few minute walk from the beach and lots of restaurants within walking distance too. The host was very responsive and nice. The only negative was that there wasn't any internet connection or Wifi during our 2-night stay, but luckily we had enough fun without it!

Very nice; close to beach; everything you need was provided.
The only negative was that the lower level was a little musty but a de-humidifier is there to help some. Lots of room for a large family

We had a great time, such convenient location and nice layout to give our two families each own access yet close so easily for kids to play together! Really enjoyed walking in the morning to the beach to watch the sunrise.
10.0
The house comfortably fit 3 families including myself and 2 siblings with our children ages from an infant to teens. The location was probably the best of anywhere I've stayed in my years of vacationing in OBX with easy access to the beach, restaurants and local attractions. The hosts were very responsive, as well.
