We stayed at the resort and yacht club in villa 2.

During the summer months, there is a shuttle that will take you to the pavilion on the beach owned by Barefoot Resort. It looks like a cottage on stilts. Probably has bathrooms and maybe a snack bar. Sounds like a good idea, but I would think it would become very crowded as many people as Barefoot Resort accommodates. There is very little parking in the area to drive yourself. I am not a big beach person, so I would prefer the huge pool at the North Tower, or sitting in the shaded balconies and watching the boats go by on the intra coastal waterway.

When booking through a third-party website, you will see two different types of units. It varies depending on which site you are on, but generally the categories will be villas or club condos/deluxe condos. The club condos/deluxe condos will be for the Yacht Club and North Tower high-rise complexes on the waterway. As a rule of thumb, the higher priced unit types will be for the Yacht Club and North Tower.

From Memorial Day to Labor Day Barefoot Resort offers complimentary beach shuttle service. It makes 4-5 trips daily from the property to the beach, typically running from 9 AM to 4:30 PM. A shuttle schedule can be obtained from our arrival office.
