    It was really hard to get help here, glad we caught Mohamed he was nice and helped us out when everyone else passed us by or overlooked us. The food was really mediocre here unfortunately because they are right in the middle of the 2 pools at the Hilton and the beach. The drinks are mediocre as well, seemed really watered down. Our last day there we got Alexis and she finally made us some good drinks! Again, the drinks are decent, might take a few to get you going though. Conclusion: hit or miss good luck.

    Great place to chill on a Sunday afternoon to eat, drink and watch the game . Food was delicious and drinks were top notch. Touristy, but a great place for locals to hang out too.

    Enjoyed this place a lot. Right on the beach beautiful views. Food was good and great atmosphere. 2 pools in between also. Won't be disappointed all around

    I think I heard a rumor that Barefoot's is only allowing Hilton guests to dine there at the moment, but I'm not sure how true that is. That being said, if you have the chance to grab a beachside lunch or dinner here, consider yourself lucky! This place is beyond great. I recently stayed at the Hilton Sandestin resort so we landed at Barefoot's several times. To start, the views are absolutely incredible. It's located right on the ocean and in between two gorgeous pools, so the location really can't be beat. There's a walkway down to the sand if you want to wander around with your frozen drink of choice, and it is just such a fun place to spend some time. For drinks, they have a huuuuuge menu of frozen, tropical choices. The alcohol in those seems pretty limited, so order something of your own if you're looking for more. The margarita is pretty good but I stuck to vodka sodas most of the time. The food is actually really good! Over the week I was at the resort, I tried the cheeseburger, the chicken salad, the nachos, and more. Our family was a little obsessed with the nachos -- I may have thought about them several times since we've left Florida. Service is great, the food is excellent, and the ocean views are just stellar. I hope to be back on my next trip!

    our favorite lunch place in this area - the grouper sandwich is sooo good
    Steffani F.

    We had a fantastic lunch here. We've eaten in a few beachfront restaurants in this area and this one is our favorite. The grouper has large white flakes and the french fries can probably feed two people.

    Main restaurant between the pools and beach service bar extension (where you can also order food to-go) on the beach access pathway
    Ross M.

    Food is alright, a little pricey as to be expected. Probably 3 stars at best but the drinks and mainly the ambiance are the reasons for the 4th star.

    Ocean view just outside bar
    Aubrey K.

    We could of sat a Barefoot's Beachside Bar the whole trip. Between the ocean view, pool access, my personal favorite drinks in the area, and my favorite bartenders we met all weekend. Those bartenders hold it down. They can take care of long lines in minutes. The fried shrimp was amazing and the strawberry daiquiris are just what you imagine. Some of these other beach bars didn't have whip cream for daiquiris!! That's a no-no. Barefoot has plenty of whip cream. My boyfriend also really appreciated being able to watch the Masters all weekend of their screen. He may start coming down their every year for the Masters now

    Shrimp tacos-awesome
    Debi S.

    Great food! Attentive service and the prices were reasonable. We appreciated the convenience of being able to eat here in the middle of our beach day with no wait on a crowded Labor Day weekend. We really enjoyed the shrimp tacos and mahi mahi wrap. The seafood was fresh and we would definitely go back. The prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area.

    Seared tuna salad
    Mira P.

    If you have no other food options, I guess you can settle for this casual restaurant located inside the hotel. The chairs are uncomfortable and the wicker material leaves marks on your skin after sitting for only 5 minutes.. Where's the cushions? Food- I ordered a seared tuna salad The seared it with butter! The only plus side is that they use real green salad not iceberg! And I should hope when your paying $15. I wish they would have a better selection of cocktails using FRESH ingredients! If you are charging that kind of dollar, use some real fruits and not mixers. Again, the only thing that they have going on is location, tv for sports fanatics and service!

    Grouper Sandwich
    Alex P.

    It's a solid 3 star place, not bad to eat at if you want convenience and good atmosphere. Probably wouldn't go out of my way to come here though. THE DRINKS. It's all mixers, no fresh fruit. Id say, if you want to drink, bring your own stuff and head to the beach. Less money, tastier and healthier drinks. GROUPER SANDWICH. Excellent grouper, fresh, not oversalted and served open faced, which is a plus. The lettuce however seemed like it was frozen and also old, lots of rotting spots. Had to take it out. POOLSIDE. The atmosphere is nice, some of the tables have a great ocean view. The atmosphere is pleasant.

    Blackened grouper sandwich

    The atmosphere was relaxing and the food was great! Can't beat a nice view of the ocean, great food, and great customer service!

The weather was a beautiful 70 degrees, and we were lucky enough to get a table with a great view of the beach and sunshine. We ordered the fish tacos and the grouper bites. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time and was piping hot. The fish tacos had a generous piece of fish on each taco, grilled perfectly. My friend ordered the grouper bites and OMG -- they were lightly battered, cooked just right, and you get so many! Definitely a must-have. Now for the service. Our waitress started off strong by promptly taking our order, but unfortunately it went downhill from there. Once we received our food, she never stopped back to check on us or offer drink refills. There was only one bartender and the place was packed. He appeared overwhelmed, especially with beachgoers walking up to the bar while also trying to keep up with drink orders from the waitstaff. It didn't seem like the servers had assigned sections, as tables appeared to be seated in rotation. Toward the end of our meal, we noticed not only ourselves but other diners trying to get their waitress's attention, which was difficult. Overall, I'd give the food 5 stars and the service 2 stars. I understand it's a beach atmosphere, but with spring break starting, the service really needs to step up its game.

I did notice on two occasions we were seated by the hostess at a table that needed to be wiped off. Even though there were several empty tables. The last time here the same hostess sat us at a dirty table, we told her about it, so she seated us at another dirty table. Complained about that but she would not wipe the table so we sat in a totally different area. That's just inexcusable laziness. (hear that management?). But all our waitresses provided excellent service. Looking forward to our next trip!!
