The Club at Barefoot Beach

The Club at Barefoot Beach is a private, member-owned beach club situated directly on the Gulf Coast in Bonita Springs, Florida. Set on a pristine stretch of white-sand shoreline at 105 Shell Drive, the club offers an event setting that few venues in Southwest Florida can match — a working beach with water access, paired with polished indoor and terrace spaces that look out over the Gulf of Mexico. For weddings, milestone celebrations, family gatherings, and private dinners, the club offers two primary indoor event spaces. The Sunset Banquet Room and Terrace, located on the third floor, accommodates up to 65 guests seated or 100 for a cocktail-style reception, with a covered balcony overlooking the private beach. The Shell Dining Room, on the second floor, seats up to 85 guests and holds up to 150 standing, providing a refined setting for larger receptions. An adjoining outdoor terrace extends the dining room for mingling and photography. Non-member events are scheduled May through October; in-season inquiries require member sponsorship. In-house dining — including the fine dining kitchen behind The Shell Dining Room — supports catering for events held on the property.
