The property has great potential. It looked like work had been done but definitely not completed. The neighborhood was ok. There’s a great park nearby and it’s close to the beach. The furnishings were early Goodwill and the house next door had junk all around it…think hoarders. The beds were horrible. The backyard was very nice and peaceful. We enjoyed it. There wasn’t any information about where to go, what to do, etc. Like we have always experienced in a VRBO rental. We did get a few recommendations after asking for restaurants. The property managers were nice enough but the property itself was just not up to snuff. We’re seasoned VRBO travelers. It just was not what we expected and it’s not somewhere we would be returning to, unless considerable work is completed on the property

This place was great. We travel with our dog and she was so happy to run around in a fenced huge backyard. We spend most of our time on the huge deck. Thanks for letting us stay.

The houses next door had their front and back yards full of trash. The house looked like it was furnished by Goodwill. The knob was missing on the gas stove, toilet paper holder loose from the wall, the master bed frame stuck out from under the mattress, a number of light bulbs burned out and the TVs didn't have instructions for use (no local channels). I have pictures of these issues. We will not use VRBO or "Faulty Escapes" again.

For years we have felt guilty every time we went away without our Aussies. We found this home in Fort Walton Beach and it was perfect for us and allowed us to bring our dogs. The house even came with a dog door. As soon as we walked into the home, we noticed the houses clean "beachy" feel. Barefoot Retreat", was in a residential neighborhood, close to a park, grocery stores, and the downtown, Miracle Strip. It was also close to local beaches. The owner provided everything we needed for our beach trip. We always felt safe and welcomed by the neighbors. Lauren, the property manager, was responsive to everything that we needed. Our 28 days at Barefoot Retreat went so quickly and it was difficult leaving. We plan to be back.

Overall decent place. Cons: No garbage bags, no dish soap, dishwasher didn't work, clothes washer was full of wet towels. Beds were very firm. On the plus side it was dog friendly.

My husband and I really loved staying here. The house was just what we needed for the two of us. The backyard was large with a beautiful deck, we enjoyed fishing and the location was great! Would love to stay again!!

This house is great for the price and was perfect for us because we were able to keep our boat docked in the backyard for our entire stay. It’s only a 10 minute boat ride to Crab Island which was a plus! The location of the house is close to grocery stores and restaurants and less than a 10 minute drive to the boardwalk which was nice. The patio is a great place to relax at night. Plenty of beach toys, life jackets, jetty wagon and more are available in the garage if you need them. The host is awesome!
