Our stay at this particular property was absolutely perfect. It is a super cute and tidy place and everything we needed was pretty much at our disposal. The short walk to the beach added a nice touch to it as well.
My family and I would definitely come back.
In my opinion, this is the most perfectly placed property in the area. It is a straight shot to the beach. The pictures were accurate and the rooms were larger than expected. Every window had an amazing view. The pantry and kitchen area were ideal. Having 2 bathrooms was very convenient. I will be searching for this property at the very next opportunity! Management was easy to communicate with and I really appreciate that. Perfect for me, husband, and our 2 young kids.
A lovely condo! Clean with comfy beds and a short walk to the beach. FYI: Golf carts are allowed on the boardwalk that goes down to the beach. However, carts are not allowed on the streets/sidewalks this far south. We will definitely stay here again!
The location was perfect! Check in was super easy! The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed! We would definitely stay here again!
This property was very clean and well stocked. I highly recommend booking this location as it's just a short walk down to the beach. It's in a great location and very well kept! If you're following your Google maps, be on the lookout for a small white wooden sign for the entrance, it's easy to miss!

Check in/out easy, directions were clear. Good communication about property. Pictures accurate. The only reason I say 4 stars is because the carpet was not vacuumed or clean. It felt dirty on my feet and had stains. Everything else was clean.
We came for Sandfest weekend and had a really good time. Condo is really decorated cute. Beds are comfy. Bedrooms are really big and bathrooms are super nice. Good location, we always like staying at the El Cortez - the boardwalk to the beach is nice!
Updated decor and appliances. We had everything we needed to relax and enjoy the beach. Recommend renting a golf cart to get back and forth to the beach.
great location, not too far from the beach, lots of room on the beach. condo was clean and comfy. cooked several meals for the family and everything worked fine. we will definitely be back.
Overall our stay was okay. The place is nice and welcoming, but there were a few issues. #1 as soon as I booked, I inquired about the golf carts in a message and NEVER got a response. I finally messaged again 2 months later and called (a week or so before our stay) and the response was that “we’ve been sold out for about 6 wks”. Now had I gotten a response initially we probably could have gotten the cart, so that was disappointing. The communication is definitely lacking. #2 The light in the living room would not come on, and I called right upon checkin to let them know. They told me there was a work order already put in and someone would be by to fix it. Needless to say we didn’t have a light in the living room our entire stay because no one ever showed up smh. #3 The bugs were BAD! We used the vacuum to suck up all the bugs that were sitting on the walls and in the corners of the home. #4 The name “Barefoot Bungalow” is very interesting as we could not walk barefoot in this place because the carpet and even the rug in the living room was filled with little prickly things that we all kept stepping on and our feet were in pain that we had to wear our shoes to avoid them. #5 On our last day, maintenance banged and barged in while we were asleep. They stated “They told us everyone was out” even though I had not even checked out through the app. All in all the place is nice, but I will definitely shop around next time for something better because my experience was very subpar.
