Low pressure, Harley any soap in multiple categories, Not effective and way too costly! I would give it negative stars if I could.

I love washing my car here and the brush is always clean , soap here is awesome. I saw the owner very nice person to meet and was so kind to give me a free 5 minutes wash. Thank you again 👍

Terrible. Once you find a place with proper Bug wash/pre wash you get it. Places that aren't terrible you actually see the grease and Bugs start to melt away on contact. This place sucks and the bug/pre wash are scam here.

I am really pissed off DONT tell people No you don’t charge 25$ for a simple few minutes wash when CLEARLY you do bc no it wasn’t that it’s pending in my account they did in fact take out 25$ for a ridiculous 8 min wash DO NOT go to this car wash it’s a complete rip off and waste of your time

Horrible. The machine would not take credit cards So I had to pay to put in $10 of quarters. It charges you while you feed The machine if you want to put in more than four dollars. The brush has nothing to stabilize your hand, so you have no control of it. It has a setting for bug remover that does nothing. I spent $35 and then had to come back and re-wash it at my home. What a waste.

Spent some time washing our boat there the other day. I love they have the engine flush hoses in the bay. We were able to get a lot of stuff off that I couldn’t with other car washes. I met the new owner and she said how much she appreciated our business. It’s nice to see people taking care of their stuff.

I went riding on burnt store, and I needed to wash motorcycle. I stopped by it was pretty clean and well kept but after I was done with about a 6min wash, I charged $54.00. Like that's crazy. Never got my money back.

10/10 recommend for all my car people in Cape Coral who like to wash their cars by themselves. There’s so many automatic self car wash so to find this one near my house made my day. I really hope you guys stay for a long time, you just got yourself a loyal customer.

I took less than 9 mins to wash my car and was charged $25 twice on my debit card. I hope they will make this right. I was satisfied with the equipment. 2/20/24. After a quick response from the owner this problem has been resolved. I was very satisfied with the wash and that real charge was $9. Thank You. 2/22/24.

I tried using this car wash a couple of weeks ago however was unable to as the credit card swipers weren't working. I tried multiple bays before giving up and going somewhere else. The location is right behind one of our businesses so I will give it another shot and update my review if it works next time. UPDATE: tried to wash my car here again last week on 9/30. The credit card machines worked. All of the wash equipment is in great shape and it is one of the cleanest self serve car washes I ever been to.

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!! Horrible pricing!!! Highest in the Cape to even start the self wash…$4 and you get 3 1/2 minutes. Alarm goes off at the one minute left mark. My timer was on 52 seconds when I added a quarter and it took me back up to 1 min and 4 seconds. I thought it was a fluke so I added yet another quarter at the 46 seconds mark and it took me back to 1 min and 1 second….that’s price gouging in a very slick way! The math doesn’t even add up for each additional quarter you add. I guess it’s car wash roulette!

I was there Friday May 2 2025. I used my credit card , I only water spray my truck for only 5 minutes , later on my credit card sent a text message saying a charge was made of $25 , I was surprised, today Monday May 5 I talked to the owner she nicely explained to me what the company they use is doing is charging an amount of $25 but 2 to 3 Days will give the money back , today I checked my account again and she was right the charge was for only $4. So I like the place everything was working , I recommend if you have a problem call the owner she will fix it for sure , thank you .

The place is clean and technically “works” but the water pressure was awful. I could’ve done the same wash with a garden hose and a nozzle. I usually use dolphin express on Chiquita but went here bc it was on my way. Never again. I paid $9 in quarters and still had soap under my spoiler. Had to hand wipe it all down to remove spots. At the wash on Chiquita I pay $6 and my car is actually clean.

Great high Bay to Wash your Big rigs!!! RVs, lifted vehicles, big trucks will fit and you won't spend a fortune cleaning!! Well maintained for an older place.

First automatic wash I’ve found that’s tall enough and wide enough to fit my truck. Did a surprisingly good job on it too! Pulled into the next bay over to wipe it dry. Owners were friendly and helpful. Thanks!

Barnacles Car Wash in Cape Coral is my go‑to spot when Bertha the Sprinter van needs a proper cleaning. A regular car wash will not take her, and the automated ones are out of the question, so these self‑serve bays are where I usually end up. Barnacles makes it easy because the bays are tall enough that I fit without any stress. The payment setup runs on quarters or tap, starting at 4 dollars, and that first cycle was enough to blast off the worst of the road grime and clear the brake dust from the wheels. The pressure is strong, the controls are simple, and the whole place feels straightforward and functional. There are vacuums on site and even a dumpster for the real road trash that accumulates on longer drives. For a quick, no‑nonsense wash that accommodates a tall van, Barnacles does exactly what I need.
