Good location. Responsive host.

The unit GULL was nicely restored after flood damage from the hurricane and Ms. Matthews is a good host. The neighborhood, on the other hand, has not fully recovered. There remains a lot of litter/debris on the ground and there is active and noisy construction of large concrete hurricane-proof buildings adjacent to Barefoot Bungalows (my reasons for 4 not 5 stars). The beach remains beautiful, and Siesta Key Village is open with the crowds returning.

Siesta Key Beach Vacation

Everything was as expected with the property - however, there was no communication about the cleanup and construction going on all around - I know it was out of your control with the hurricane damage, but I would say that we overpayed for the condition of the area.Lisa did a very good job with communication and the checkin process - Thanks

Great place bad timing

We absolutely loved our bungalow and Lisa was the best. Unfortunately hurricane Helene blessed us with a visit. We made the decision to stay since the eye was in the panhandle. Bad decision. Lisa made sure we were safe and moved us to another property on higher ground and made arrangements for us to get off the island the day after. Above and beyond. Thank you for everything!

The photos gave me the wrong impression that I will be in a confortable place, and the air conditioner is not a central air conditioner, and the small air conditioners don’t satisfy the need, and went in and out several times especially at night and the hot don’t let you sleep

Great Stay

Location, location, location. This bungalow is a great place to stay if you want to be close to the beach and to the Village. The unit was super clean and well apportioned with everything you need from kitchenware to beach gear! Beach chairs were very good beach chairs. The communication is great - Had an issue with the refrigerator and Lisa had it taken care of as soon as she could and it was much appreciated. Overall great place to stay.

Relaxing beach getaway

This cottage is just steps away from the beach and Siesta Village with many restaurants, shops, and the market. You can park your car and never move it until check out. The cottage’s terrace was perfect for morning and nights. Everything was clean and neat. They have beach chairs (5 Tommy Bahama chairs), a cooler, beach cart, umbrella, and more. Keurig and drip coffee, everything we needed for the kitchen and plenty of paper supplies. We would definitely stay again.

Our stay at the Gull

My wife and I spent four days at the Gull. The location is excellent. Just around the corner and you are on the beach. Just one block walk and you are in Siesta Key old town eating and shopping. The air conditioning is a little different. Utilizing widow units and portable units. The portable unit’s exhaust air causing the bungalow to be in a huge negative. This causes a lot of hot attic air to be drawn in around the pocket door to the master bedroom. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and the comfort of the bungalow.

Location, location, location

This property is in a perfect location: easily walkable to the beach and easily walkable to the village. The host provides beach items (chairs, umbrellas, a cooler and a trolley) towels and even a few toiletries if you forgot something. The property is clean and well furnished. The bedrooms rely on portable a/c units and fans, which can be a little noisy, but help keep the rooms cool in the intense Florida heat. Overall this is a GREAT place to stay and a great host in a BEAUTIFUL location. I will be back!
