Great place to stay for a night or two! Close to many things but appropriately far enough from the boardwalk crowds. Desk staff is amazing!

4/10 Fair
05 September 2024
We had stayed here in 2018 and the property was newly renovated and clean. We revisited this property in 2024 and the room smelled like a dog salon. The room didn't feel clean, there was mold on the ceiling, and dust was covered in many areas - such as the headboard. To add insult to injury, our bathroom ceiling began to leak on our second day, so we decided to check out early and leave for another hotel.

Great stay
My fiancé and I went for a quick little beach trip. Our stay at the Barefoot Mailman was amazing. We loved the room and the kitchen was great to cook our meals. We loved the porch and the privacy. The staff was very nice and made sure that we were enjoying our stay. We will definitely stay here again.

This was my first time staying at a hotel with my pet. And let me tell you excellent service. I love that the beach was just around the corner. I definitely recommend staying here if you have a pet or not. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Paul was very helpful, room was clean and newly renovated. Close to lots of attractions and food places. Didnt take any animals but it is definitely pet friendly as many other guests had dogs.

Biscuits go to the Beach
Front desk staff the whole weekend were fabulous. Everyone was nice and helpful. Locked ourselves out of the room, but they got us back in super quick. 2nd time I've been and would return.
