“Location, location, location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 March 2011

We just returned from a 5 night stay at the Barefoot Bay.

Pros: Great pool and deck area. It is well maintained with lots of lounge chairs and towels. The location of the hotel is excellent. It's a 3 minute walk to the beach, pier and restaurants. The hotel staff is friendly and helpful.

Cons: We stayed in a Standard Queen room and it was fairly small. The bathroom was VERY small.

Overall: We had a good experience. Other then the small bathrooms, no complaints. We will definetely be back but may try a larger room next time.

“Great memories had here”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2010

My family and I stayed at BBR in early April 2010(temps were great in the low to mid 80's). After a fast paced week at Disney this was just what we needed. Its a small motel style place, room are small but big enough for us since we werent in the room much. We had two queen beds and there is a table with chairs,small kitchen area w/ microwave, sink, dishes & coffeepot. This is not a chain type hotel, so furnishings were bit more homey, but nonetheless clean. The pool is right outside the rooms and they have a great deck area with chairs & tables and a grill for guest use. We met friends here so the deck was great for the evenings, after the kids went to bed, us adults were able to sit in the deck area within 5 feet and eyeshot of the door to the room and have drinks. There is a small little marina on the other side of the motel which adds to the charm of the BBR. The cleaning lady was very friendly and Warren(one fo the front desk guys) just stole our hearts and my kids still ask when we are going back to see him (we even took a pic of him). We loved the place and the area so much we stayed an extra night and were able to stay in the same room. The beach is so close and so are all the shops and restaurants. If you are looking for a well priced yet clean place to unwind relax, enjoy the beach and make family memories....I would reccomend BBR....its not a high frills place so if you are into chandliers and bellboys look elsewhere....if we are ever in Clearwater again we will definately stay at BBR.

Absolutely fabulous. Stayed here in March for 4 nights. Lovely room, pool was warm and the decking area just lovely. It is run by an English family who work very hard to maintain the high standards.
Couldn't fault a single thing. 5*****
