Best beach house ever !
This house is beautiful- it was super clean ! The water pressure was fantastic ! We were literally steps from the beach - the location was perfect, a very quiet established neighborhood. The furniture was extremely comfortable even the furniture on the screened porch was comfy. The house is light bright and beachy . We shall return

Best Beach Trip Ever!
We had the most wonderful time here! The house was in the most perfect, secluded location and the had absolutely everything we needed, even a low country boil pot! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and we are already planning on coming back next year. The toiletry samples even smelled amazing. The only problem was that the floors were pretty dirty; my bare feet were black on our first day from just walking around the house.
Thank you for being such a great host! We look forward to our next stay with 360 Blue.

Perfect retreat
I travel to this area because of the quiet nature of the experience. This fit my needs precisely and I have stayed in this unit off and on since the late 1990's. I was happy to see it available once again. The remodel (post Michael) was perfect keeping the best in place and updating.

Beautiful Beach House
This was the best beach vacation even with the rain because this house had everything we needed. We cooked in the very clean and well stocked kitchen, enjoyed the back porch and hated to leave at the end of the week! We come here every summer and this has been one of the best houses so far. We will be back again next year!

Cozy family beachhouse
We stayed at Barefoot Blessings for 5 nights with our 5.5, 4.5 and 2.5 year old children. Everything about this place was perfection. The house was just the right size for our family and we loved the big, openness of the family room/kitchen/dining all together that encouraged more family time. The screened in porch was fantastic with gorgeous views of the beach.
Everything about it had an “old school” beach house feel but with updated, clean, interior. The beach house was stocked with everything we needed to cook at home, and it was all very comfortable. The kids enjoyed riding their scooters under the house and the playground at Salinas park up the way. We already want to come back!

Perfect family getaway
This property was absolutely perfect for my family. We have two small children and being directly on the beach now seems like a necessity after staying at Barefoot Blessings. When we weren't out on the beach, we were usually enjoying a meal or taking in the gorgeous views from the screened porch. Definitely our favorite part of the house. The house was very clean (the cleanest rental I've stayed in) and the kid's loved their room with the bunk beds. We loved the house so much that we rented it again for next year. Can't wait for another stay at Barefoot Blessings.
