About this house rental
If you are looking for a charming gulf front retreat that offers the feeling of home – this is it!
Bare Feet Retreat is one of Pensacola Beach’s vintage structures which holds the charm of the past yet has the modern conveniences of today. The views of the powder white sand and the crystal-clear water along with the sounds of the surf will make memories of a lifetime!
What makes this gulf front home a unique find is it’s large porch and private walkway to the water’s edge. Pensacola Beach has many beach properties but Bare Feet Retreat is a stand out!
The owner was adamant that the house continues to be a “beach home”, meaning the original wood and warm welcoming feel of the home must remain intact. The goal was to provide a current beach décor yet embrace the original features and charm of the home. Gulf Coast Getaways is pleased to provide this unique updated property!
The bottom floor of Bare Feet Retreat has a drive-in car port that offers a perfect place to keep at least one car out of the elements. This is also a great spot to store floats, coolers, and additional beach equipment.
The main level of the home is an open concept with a large great room, dining room, and kitchen. In this large space families can gather to cook, dine, and watch tv. The living room has plenty of seating with 3 large sofas’ (one of which has a queen size sleeper sofa), a large flat screen tv. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is plenty of room for a family meal as the bar area seats four and the farm house table has seating for eight.
The large porch is a guest favorite for sure! This is a cozy place to get out of the sun yet still enjoy the views of the surf. This area has a comfortable hanging porch swing as well as an additional area to dine or watch for dolphins. Off both sides of the porch you will find open deck areas, perfect for the sun lovers!
Also on the main level of the home guests will find a large master suite complete with a flat screen tv and a sliding glass door that leads to the deck. This is a sun filled room with sweeping water front views of the sand and surf. It is also sizable enough to have room for a king bed and a full bed. The lay out conveniently enables families with small children to sleep in the same room with parents. The adjoining master bathroom has a large vanity as well as a soaker tub and a separate shower.
On the other side of the home guests will find two bedrooms and a full bathroom. One of these bedrooms is direct gulf front with a king-sized bed, a flat screen tv, and a large sliding glass door to the sun deck. The second bedroom sleeps four with a queen bed as well as day bed with a trundle underneath. This room also has a flat screen tv.
The third level of this home is an inviting bonus room, second master BR with a renovated full bath. This bedroom features a king bed, full bathroom, mini kitchenette, and awesome gulf front deck! While the rest of the house has beautiful views of the gulf this room has the most stunning views of all. You will not want to miss out on enjoying these unobstructed long range views of the Gulf of Mexico!

This is an incredible
Location. The house is steps onto the beach with your own little path. Loved how it was more private and way less crowded than the in town beach. It is very close to town for all the yummy restaurants. We would definitely go back to this house. The one thing I’d say is come knowing you’ll need beach towels because they aren’t provided, shampoo conditioners, and you’ll need more toilet Paper paper towels trash bags etc. They leave a bar of soap for each bathroom and one toilet roll. This is just a heads up. We still think it deserves the 5 stars because it is wonderful!

Wonderful place to stay

The house is very comfortable. The bedrooms were perfect for us. ( 6 adults, 1 child) The living area was arranged perfectly. There are puzzles and beach books for when-a beach break is needed. The deck is terrific! We used the gas grill with no problems. Downstairs is an outdoor shower. Kitchen well stocked with appliances, pans, bowls, dishes, pots, utensils & cooking utensils. Another set of forks would be nice to have as we don’t use plastic! Also, as the freezer in the fridge is small & the demand for ice is high, perhaps a small ice maker could be installed?
A kitchen drawer came off the track and maintenance was out that day to repair it!
He also set up the hose for us as someone had removed the connector.
One flaw that was almost a deal breaker for us renting again next year is the bathroom in large downstairs bedroom. The toilet/shower closet has slatted, wooden swinging doors as seen in old Western movies! They don’t even latch! This affords no privacy. I am hoping that the owner upgrades this to a barn door! I rented in good faith that this will happen!
The boardwalk to the beach is excellent. It was so nice having 2 Adirondack chairs at the base of the walk. Such a great place to sit & sip or read or just listen to waves at night. Lovely touch!
We used the beach umbrella for extra shade. There were beach chairs & toys that we did not use.
All in all this was a great house for us.

Great location! The house had everything we needed. It IS a bit dated, however. Swinging 'saloon like" doors to the toilet/shower in downstairs bedroom REALLY need to be changed. There is no bathroom privacy in that area.

We loved the privacy of the home, and how it was still close to restaurants. It felt like we had the ocean all to ourselves.

Unbeatable location with private walkway access to the Gulf of Mexico. Great two level deck, partially covered, ideal for dining or enjoying the swing.

Pros: The view was fantastic. Direct beach access is awesome. The renting agency was easy to deal with and quick to respond to questions.
Cons: The kitchen was outfitted with the cheapest possible version of everything - pots & pans, utensils, flatware, appliances. Many pots were damaged too badly to use. Disappointing given the price we paid and in comparison to other places we've stayed nearby.

The view, access and privacy were as advertised...no question. Would stay there again if house updated a bit, repairs made to boardwalk and deck...and some appliances replaced. It is a beach house so one expects some wear and tear. Positive overall experience with some reservations. Need to update online pictures...bring weekly rates to more comparable price due to updates needed.

We very much enjoyed our time at this property and would recommend it to friends. We would definitely consider coming back in the future.
The staff was very helpful in accommodating an early check-in since we had little kids who had been in the car for a very long time. We very much appreciated this.
The location was fantastic and the beach access was perfect. The property was not far from the main drag, but it was far enough away to be calm and uncrowded. We did notice that the boardwalk needed some TLC, but no one was injured or maimed and it was not unsafe. The outdoor seating areas also maybe needed some attention, but again, these are only minor comments. There was plenty of space to accommodate our group and nothing was uncomfortable.
The family room space was perfect! There was lots of room for all of our group to sit in the evenings and plenty of room around the dining table (but we did need a few more chairs here). The TV was nice and easy to use. The WiFi also worked well, even for video conferencing.
The kitchen was well stocked and we cooked a lot. It was a bit hard to cook for a big group (maybe needed more large items like pots, pans, baking sheets, etc.), but we were prepared for this and managed to adapt as needed. The appliances were a little dated but functioned adequately. The refrigerator struggled to keep up when we first arrived and packed it full of groceries for 11 adults; but we were able to contact the text line and a service provider was sent to inspect it on the same day. He vacuumed some cooling components and it was running great by the end of the evening. We were very pleased with the responsiveness of the staff to address this issue.
The sleeping arrangements easily accommodated our group and no one complained about the beds being uncomfortable. (This is my own personal suggestion, but I would have appreciated some upgraded/additional bedding, as what was provided was a bit minimal. But, I understand not wanting to put a lot of investment into this when people don't treat it well.)
The kitchen cabinets and bathrooms needed to be updated -- there was nothing wrong with them, but they were obviously dated. Still, there was plenty of hot water and everything was very clean so this really wasn't a disappointment or problem. The water pressure was also good so long as not all three bathrooms were going at the same time.
Overall, we enjoyed our vacation and would recommend this property for others.

The view of the ocean from this house was amazing. It was also a short walk to the beach. Nice house for all ages. We had a fantastic time. Wish I had more money, I would of stayed longer.

We had 4 families with 6 kids from 2-7 years old stay in this house for 6 nights. It was just enough room and the walk to the beach was so perfect. Any issues we had were addressed quickly. We cannot quit talking about how comfortable the beds were. We are looking at booking now for next year. Thanks for sharing your property with us.

Pros: Lovely beachfront with private walkway over dunes, coud leave chairs and toys at the end of walkway so didn't have to haul them in every time. Screened porch with swing so perfect for beach-gazing we didn't even mind rainy weather; able to enjoy the sea in all its moods. Lots of toys/chairs left in the garage by previous guests (we left three umbrellas) so we only had to buy a few beach things. Just enough room for 8 adults and 4 kids. Driveway/garage perfect for cornhole or lots of parking. Groceries and alcohol delivered by Publix, so no need to leave once we got there. Outstanding communication with management. Comfy beds, lots of towels.
Cons: House a little more dated than listing shows, but, hey, it's a beach house. No ventilation for stove, had to open windows when cooking bacon, which let in hot air and flies. Boardwalk to beach is old and splintery. Several of us got bloody toes (because we shucked our shoes when we arrived and didn't put any on until we left). Nails popping up on the deck/boardwalk are a hazard -- either replace with screws or supply a hammer. We used driftwood to pound them down. Also, spindles loose or missing on railings. These are not as much complaints as just letting the management know about needed repairs. I owned a house at the beach and it's much harder to keep up than a house anywhere else. Overall, it's in good shape.
A fabulous place for a family beach vacation. I would stay here again.

Perfect Place for a Family Vacation
Amidst all of the concern with COVID-19, we chose this house because of its direct access to the beach and the ability to stay together safely. The house was well-equipped, layed out, comfortable and provided a wonderful week away. The beach is beautiful - great swimming, soft white sand and plenty of space for social distancing with our tent, umbrella, 10 chairs, sand toys, coolers, etc. Screened deck/porch was lovely for morning coffee and evening drinks. Plenty of parking room for our cars too. We look forward to planning another trip at this property.

Beautiful Home
The size and layout of the home was nice but had several issues. Such as ac stopped working in upstairs bedroom and was replaced with a stand up ac which was actually to small to keep the bedroom comfortable during the day. There was also sewer gas smell in upstairs bathroom. Someone’s eye contacts were dried onto the nightstand beside the bed. Several toe nails were found on floor in living room. There were some nail heads sticking up on the deck and walk way to beach. Overall the house was very nice and we enjoyed our stay.

Great place & location
We really enjoyed our stay. Perfect location. Enough space to spread out. Almost private beach for such a busy time of year. Loved the screened porch for midday heat and evening time relaxation.
