Barefoot Beach Condo Resort

We stayed here for 4 nights before moving inland to Orlando. The room was fabulous and very well appointed and the resort is both close to a lovely beach (where you can see some wonderful sunsets) but also mid point between Clearwater and St Petersburg therefore being an ideal spot to explore this part of the coast. There are also some excellent places to have breakfast within walking distance. I would highly recommend Barefoot Beach Resort as a place to stay to explore the Gulf Coast.

I LOVED this experience!! It was such a wonderful time. Beautiful, beautiful interior cutely decorated with lots of space to relax as a suite. It was just my husband and me, no kids, so just 2 adults. The check in clerks were very friendly and answered all questions. No fear for safety as well, it seemed in a nice quiet location. It’s walking distance to the beach, with a very convenient cross walk right across the hotel. No food or room service is provided, but they provide that information on a pamphlet upon arrival, so no surprises. In the suites are a fridge, stove, plates, silverware, even a coffee maker so they provide everything you’d need to make your own food. I’d definitely recommend this place for a relaxing retreat for couples or people with kids. It’s like an Airbnb without the Airbnb prices.

Really liked this resort. Indian Shores is a lovey quiet area south of the madness of Clearwater and about 40 mins from Tampa Airport. It’s is series of privately owned condo units. You pay separately for the services like the pool and the gas BBQs around the resort (which were great); c. $80pw. It has water to both sides which was lovely; harbour to one and the beach access on the other. Pool area small but perfectly adequate. Our condo was decked out with all the essentials. The only slight gripes were the bed wasn’t great in ours and dipped in the middle. Also there is an apparent lack of recycling facilities that we are not used to I the UK. But all in all a great place and would certainly go again. Recommend the Indian Shores Coffee Co. About 500 yards away. Excellent coffee but gets very busy.
