Sugar Shores @ OR Seeking Snowbirds for a great season. Refreshing & Relaxing,

Enjoy complimentary beach service, 2 chaise lounge chairs and an umbrella, reserved for you on the famous, sugar white beach under clear blue skies as you soak up the brilliant shades of the aqua Gulf of Mexico.
Sugar Shores, at the Ocean Reef resort is a beautiful, contemporary, four-bedroom, three bath, sixth floor condominium at the Ocean Reef Resort. The perfect setting for wonderful vacation memories, Sugar Shores, will awe and inspire you. Inside, Sugar Shores will impress and pamper you. As you enjoy the ABCs of a perfect beach vacation: amenities, beauty and comfort, you may find yourself looking for excuses to delay your departure from Sugar Shores. But stay in the moment, relax and enjoy, after all you’ll be welcome to return to Sugar Shores. Most of our guests come as visitors and return as friends. Guests must have at least one person 25 years old in the party.

Breath taking sunrise views and mesmerizing tropical sunsets create the perfect setting to enjoy morning, noon or night on the “world’s most beautiful beach's”. The “real fun beach” beckons you to another day of wonderful memory making adventure and entices you to experience a romantic evening on Sugar Shore’s private balcony. Stars explode above and the moon reflects off the gently rolling waters below as an awesome tropical sunset closes another wonderful day on the beach.

Sugar Shores comes with a very convenient reserved parking sport just one flight of stairs away from the unit. There are additional parking spaces on the 5th floor & across the street to accommodate multiple vehicles, key-less entry, a collapsible shopping cart sturdy enough to transport items to and from the parking lot or the beach, etc.

The beach front, king size, master suite is an en suite with PRIVATE BATH & personal access to the Gulf front balcony. The suite has overhead & indirect lighting, excellent quality bedding, ample storage space & a flat screen television. Enjoy the beauty and privacy of the suite.
The Second, king size master suite has private access to the second full bath. Beautiful and thoughtfully decorated, it is also spacious and serene with ceiling fan, overhead and task lighting and a flat screen television.
BEDROOMS THREE AND FOUR are on the north side of the condo with perfect views of the Hidden Lagoon Mini Golf course across the street. They are furnished with a QUEEN BED & TWIN OVER FULL BUNK BED, ceiling fan, dresser, walk in closet and Jack and Jill access to the third full bath.
The full size washer and dryer is in the laundry room, right outside the fourth bedroom.
The kitchen is open and well-furnished to assure ease of preparation and service. The large granite bar, beautiful custom cabinets & back splash adorn the kitchen’s Coastal Living style appeal. Even KP duty is pleasant here. The cook has a good view of the gulf and sky.
Sugar Shore’s spacious family room is light & airy, with a large dining table, breakfast bar, sofa, love seat & 65 in flat screen, smart television.

Low density, is one of the great features to enjoy when you’re staying at Sugar Shores. On the east side of the resort, a very large portion of the beach is open and void of development. This greatly enhances the view and room to explore and play on the beach.

There is also great fun nearby at the Aaron Bessant Park, Frank Brown Park with basketball, tennis, and pickle ball courts plus multiple soccer and baseball fields where traveling fast pitch softball and baseball tournaments are played every summer. Frank Brown Park is also home of the Panama City Beach Aquatic Center. Many of the exciting festivals and concerts are also at Frank Brown.
The results of a great vacation are strengthened bonds, new discoveries, relaxation and rejuvenation. The setting is vital to a great vacation.

Just what we were looking for!

We could not have been happier with the accommodation. We loved the location and the views were absolutely beautiful. Our stay was for two months and can't wait to get back there. Also just wanted to add that the staff at the Ocean Reef were very extremely nice and very helpful. Thank you so much for a great time.

Great experience

We had a wonderful vacation at this location. The condo was clean, roomy and well stocked. The location was walking distance to restaurants and family fun across the street. The communication with management was easy and professional. The parking was not an issue at all. I look forward to coming back with my family. Thanks for an awesome stay.

Average

The beach location was beautiful and the condo was average. It was a bit outdated and the furniture was very used/stained. Overall an okay stay, biggest complaint is the mattresses in each of the rooms were horribly uncomfortable and caving in the middle. Be prepared to bring your own toiletries. Only 1 toilet paper per bathroom, definitely not enough for 8 guest for a week’s stay.

Great Property - Responsive Owner to Maintenance Requests

Great location, nice condo. There were a few issues that needed to be addressed upon arrival (running toilet, non-flushing toilet, broken bed frame) that were fixed right away. Also found some small roaches; the owner had a pest control company there within a day. Everything else was great. I would go back again.

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful stay! The location is perfect and the floor is just high enough for great beach views and taking our luggage up. The unit is 1 floor above parking and overflow parking is on the same level. The only minimal comment was that it's probably time to replace mattress' but it was doable. It's hard to know unless you sleep on them. The check-in was a breeze and all the staff were friendly. We would definitely go back!

Everything was great! Pictures do no justice. The condo looks way better in person than on the pictures! Great beach view! Everything was neat & clean. The only problem we had was we got stuck in the elevator for 30 Mins. Other than that! I’ll definitely book again!

Family Getaway

We had a great stay at Sugar Shores. The unit had everything we needed and the location was in walking distance to some restaurants. Having to only walk up one flight from the reserved parking spot was perfect. The facility did have one elevator not working which caused for long wait times for the other two. Responses from the owner and property manager were timely for any questions we had about the property.

Very spacious condo

My family of 8 stayed here last week. We had 6 adults and 2 15 year olds and had more than enough room. The balcony has great views and plenty of space. The kitchen is well stocked. It was very covenient to have a washer dryer in the unit. Parking is tight especially for large vehicles, but if it is too tight, you can park across the street. The owner is easily reachable and even contacted us after checkin to make sure everything was in order. The staff at the facility are very friendly.i would definitely stay here again.

Overall good experience

This property overall was good, the beach front view of the water is great, enjoyed the big tv with apps, kitchen was good size, good to have wash and drier inside the unit, parking garage is super small and narrow, no way to make any corner without backing up….. height is super low in the garage to so be aware…. You do get an assigned spot in the garage but that’s a small spot in terms of narrowness! Would definitely try to book here again!

Sugar Shores

We had an amazing time at Sugar Shores, Unit 601. Dr. George was easy to reach and responded quickly. We had no issues while at the condo. It is spacious, was very clean and had plenty of kitchen items and bath towels available. One thing to note when renting the condo is that a beach wagon/cart is provided by the owner (it can be found in the master bedroom closet). There are no luggage carts on the property.

Annual Friends Trip

The condo is in a great location. Easy beach access. The unit was well stocked and maintained. The owner personally contacted me after arrival to make sure the unit was to our standards. I suggested a few deeper cleaning items I noticed as an ocd cleaning business owner. He offered to have the items cleaned the next day. I told him that would not be necessary. But I did appreciate the follow up. I did NOT notice a single bug in the unit as previous reviews stated. We would rebook this condo for future trips.

Dirty and in need of upkeep

The overall property, beach area and pool were nice. The unit we stayed in was overall unclean with mold on walls near air vents and returns, dirty walls and baseboards, and dirty bathtubs. Ants were in the kitchen. The owner had to come spray for the ants. The kitchen had plates and silverware and enough pots for us to make due but it did not have any baking pans at all which made our meal prep difficult. There were not even enough glasses for the 7 people in our party. The beds were adequate though uncomfortable. The linens and towels were clean. There was other deferred maintenance, e.g., broken balcony spindles that rattled loudly in the constant wind that blew off the gulf and the shoddy installation of dishwasher and plumbing fixtures. It felt that the overall care and upkeep of this unit was poor and created an unpleasant experience.

Disheartened

I go to the beach twice a year. This condo by far was the worst i have stayed in. Dishwater didnt work, microwave didnt work the first 3 days and then a repairman came and showed us a way around to use it(none of the top buttons worked),very poorly stocked kitchen(no can opener, no containers for leftovers, no cookie sheet or flat pans)that property manager brought stuff on Thursday (we left Saturday morning), safety hazard on balcony with broken rail, and worst of all ROACHES!!!!!! No night locks on doors. This condo is in desperate need of a renovation!
