    This property was great. So well taken care of and so many great amenities. We had a blast with pool volleyball and had everything we needed for an awesome week in a home away from home. The property owners were great and very easy to work with as well and super helpful and responsive. This was a 10/10 for sure.

    Outstanding! Spectacular property and location...we will be back!We've been coming to this area (Bokeelia) for over 25 years - as renters, then property owners and now back to renters. This is an exceptional property inside and out - very clean and well appointed. Owners very responsive for questions - great location if you are bringing a boat and want a quiet place for a home base. Everything was perfect at this home - we will definitely be back!

    Wouldn't change a thing! The 3 boat slips and parking for our trucks and trailers were a reason to stay here again next year!

    Barrancas Barnacle was perfect! The owners were fantastic and easy to work with. Plenty of boat dockage, beautifully landscaped, and the house was thoughtfully set up. The pool was a great bonus, and the kitchen had everything we needed. A true gem in Bokeelia—highly recommend!

    We like staying at a beautiful place that is somewhat distant from neighbors and private. This was the perfect place for us! We don’t want to hush the grandchildren while laughing and playing pool. Whether entertaining adult relatives fishing or grandchildren playing in the pool or boating to the beaches this place was great for that. The owners are very gracious hosts that made sure we felt at home during our stay. This house was everything that we expected and more. It is definitely our #1 VRBO place.

    The property had everyone we wanted and needed. The house was very clean, located well, and had a pool and dock for a boat we were using. Ideal!

    We really loved our stay at the Barrancas Barnacle. It easily fit our family of 6 plus children and there was not one thing we could think of that the host left out. The home was meticulous and spacious with plenty of room for all of our vehicles. The living room was such a comfortable hang out place for our large family and the furniture was all so comfortable. We would definitely stay here again! We ended up leaving a significant amount of cash behind and the owners were so sweet to retrieve it for us and send us a check. We look forward to our next trip to Bokeelia!

    The Barrancas Barnacle was perfect. We went to Bokeelia for a family boating staycation. The property easily accommodated our family of 5 plus 2 additional adults in the 2nd master suite. Location for boating is great; the boat ramp is down the street and there was plenty of room to park truck and trailer. It was a short boat ride to Cayo Costa State Park and local waterfront restaurants including Cabbage Key. The house is fully stocked with everything you need. Beautiful property, super clean and very comfortable. Will definitely visit again!

    The home is beautiful and sits on a huge lot that is perfect for entertaining inside and outside! We were greeted by manatees at the dock and the best hosts we’ve ever dealt with! They truly care about their guests having the best vacation experience possible. We can’t wait to stay again next year!
