Perfect Stay

This house was incredibly comfortable… everything felt new, clean, and thoughtfully stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook, there were multiple detergent options for the washing machine, and plenty of pool toys and beach towels were available.The beds and couch were super comfy, and the pool was perfectly heated and private thanks to the beautiful, lush landscaping.Location-wise, it couldn’t be more convenient. We were just minutes from all the restaurants we wanted to try, errands were a breeze, and the beach was a quick drive away. It only took us 9 minutes to get to Mercato in North Naples!A bottle of wine was waiting for us upon arrival and the owner was very responsive. Truly the best rental we’ve ever booked. Highly recommend!

Comfortable Bonita Home

The home and property are extremely nice with many amenities and everything you need to enjoy your vacation. We really enjoyed riding the bikes to the beach ! Four nice bikes, beach chairs, well stocked kitchen, comfortable furnishings, good location and security spot lights all make this house very attractive. The house is located in a very diversified neighborhood which may be a negative factor for some.

Relaxed Vacation Awaits You at Barefoot Breeze

Thank you to the owners of Barefoot Breeze for allowing us to rent their well-maintained, beautifully decorated, redesigned vacation home located close to the heart of shopping in Bonita Springs and near Barefoot Beach and Lover's Key State Park. It is a short drive to both Ft. Myers and Naples, as well. The home is well-stocked with all the amenities needed, including a heated pool, to enjoy a relaxing vacation week(s). The owner was immediately responsive to any questions we had prior to renting and while there. Thank you, again, Johnny. We had a wonderful week at Barefoot Breeze.

Wonderful home near the beach!

My family and I stayed here for a week after this past Christmas. It was ourselves and 5 children (ages 14, 14, 13, 10, 9). The space worked well for us with the eldest two and youngest two sharing rooms. The bunk room was great for the 14 year olds. All bedrooms except kids bunk room had TVs. Home has large open concept kitchen, living room, family room area that makes great for small family/friend get togethers. Easy access to the beach via short bike ride or ride to public access. We know the area well so were not surprised by the fact a number of homes in the area were destroyed during last few hurricanes. Rebuilding though seems to be on the uptake. A number of lots still for sale nearby. Area also has a number of multi-family/duplex options that are most likely rentals. The proximity to beach and other resources though were enough for us to overlook this and book anyway. The homeowner did a great job remodeling. Everything is clean with modern lines and well thought out. I'd book this spot again. I'm excited to see the area be redeveloped with the increase number of investors and renovations going up in the area. Area was safe and I'd take my family back here again without hesitation. Great spot for a family getaway!

Look no further!!

An amazing property! The home is tastefully decorated, immaculately clean, and amenities unlike most rental properties….I wish I had the beautiful tile/stone finishes in my own home! From a fully stocked kitchen for meal prep, puzzles, games and Foosball for the kids, to beach chairs and pool toys, the owners have thought of everything. The location is minutes from Bonita Beach and only 15 minutes to Lovers Key State Park beach- our favorite. The owner is attentive and responsive to any needs. We look forward to visiting again next year and only hope after others discover this gem there will be a week available for us!!

Perfection!

Weve stayed in 10 different VRBO rental homes in southwest Florida over the years. This is the best by far, and the only one I want to return to. It is the cleanest, most well equipped and furnished, and the owner is a great guy. He responds to texts within a minute. We had a problem with the dishwasher on a Sunday and he had a handyman there within a few hours Amazing! The kitchen has high quality cookware, dishes flatware etc., which is very rare in rental homes. The heated pool and lanai are beautiful and there are lots of pool toys and beach towels. Location is close to the beach, shopping and great restaurants. We're already booked for next year.

All the amenities you'll need!

This is a beautiful home, located in a convenient area of Bonita Springs, only a mile away from beautiful beaches. The first thing that we noticed when we walked in was how clean the place was! We had 10 people stay here, including 5 granddaughters age 6-12. They spent almost all of their waking hours in the lovely pool! The two sitting areas were great when the kids watched a movie at night in one area, and the adults sat in the other area to visit. Nice linens in bathrooms, plenty of beach towels and pool toys, well stocked kitchen. Johnny, the owner, was always very quick to respond and even reached out during our visit to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. We would highly recommend this place for a vacation rental.

Our stay at Bonita Shores was wonderful. The home is meticulous and clean. The home was well supplied and had everything we needed to make nice dinners! The sitting areas were roomy and comfortable - they easily accommodated our 6’+ sons. Honestly, this rental exceeded our expectations for comfort and ambiance. The pool was lovely.

Exceptional Experience

We had to change our plans four days before our vacation when our cruise was cancelled. We were really bummed, but quickly started looking for houses we could book for a week in Florida. We came across this beautiful house, and it was everything we could have imagined. The host was very easy to communicate with, and thought of everything you could possibly need to make it a great stay from board games, beach chairs, and 4 bikes. The house was very clean and the pool was incredible with a close and easy commute to a beautiful beach. We are so grateful to have had the incredible experience we did when our plans had to change last minute. Thank you Johnny!

Lovely pool with tons of pool toys and floaties. Home is spotless and in perfect condition.

Impeccable Stay

My family and I had an amazing time at Barefoot Breeze. The rental was beyond our expectations. Johnny was an incredible host. He responded quickly to any of my questions and even allowed us to check in early. The home itself was immaculate and was stocked with everything you could possibly need (towels, plenty of pots and pans, toiletries, bikes, a Bluetooth speaker, games, beach equipment, including beach chairs, umbrella, beach cart and beach bags. There was even a juicer and an Instant Pot). There was plenty of space for my family of five (4 adults and one teenager) and the sleeping arrangements could have accommodated a bigger party with ease. Barefoot Breeze is located about a mile away from the beach, Publix was about a five-minute drive, and there are restaurants were within walking distance. The home was exactly how it was pictured online and the amenities were well thought out. We appreciated Johnny’s hospitality and definitely will consider staying at Barefoot Breeze again!

"Everything you could want and more!"

We just returned from a wonderful vacation time at the “Barefoot Breeze”. Everything about this stay was amazing, you literally had everything you could ever need for a perfect beach vacation. It was like a home away from home. The property and location was outstanding, perfect for grocery shopping, dining and beach adventures. It was the perfect place for a family with kids. There was more than enough room for my family of 7 which included my granddaughter (17 months). We didn’t want for anything. Whether we were headed to the beach or spending the day in Naples, the house was well equipped with coolers, beach chairs, beach toys, bikes, pool toys and much much more. When we enjoyed the day relaxing around the house, the kitchen was perfectly equipped for any and all cooking and the pool was a great place to chillax. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and stocked with plenty of linens. I was amazed by the variety of toddler furniture/equipment and TOYS for my granddaughter to entertain herself with all week. The smile on her face all week spoke volumes to the time that we had. Johnny, I can’t say enough about your hospitality. You were an awesome host. You were very responsive, accommodating, and detail orientated with everything that was included in the home. This home definitely has everything you need to fully relax and enjoy your stay; its clean, spacious, well equipped and beautifully maintained. It definitely looked newly updated. I highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a beautiful place to stay in Bonita Springs and I have already recommended this home to my family and friends. Thank you again Johnny for allowing us to stay at your place. We had an awesome vacation. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Johnny Kusek

My wife and I, along with our three children, love Bonita Springs. It's the perfect blend of "just enough things to see and do" without the hustle and bustle of a major metropolitan city. The lifestyle here is laid back and the people here are generally in a vacation state of mind and just happy to be here! We bought this home as an investment as well as a family vacation home and every time we come here, we don't want to leave. You won't want to leave either!

We are from the Chicagoland area. I own a tile company and did all the tile work in the house (with a little help from a friend) and Monika is busy taking care of our home and our three children.

We hope you have a very pleasant stay and that you'll come back again and again.

Why they chose this property

It is convenient to everything. You can bike to the beach, to restaurants, to bars, just about anything. The outdoor space is just as wonderful as our indoor space. We love spending time in the pool (with changing light colors); picking fresh fruit from all our trees; and going to the beach (of course)!

What makes this property unique

Monika and I feel a tremendous sense of pride in this house. Every last detail was lovingly contemplated and we hope you find our home as pleasing to the eye as we do.
