BEACH FRONT CONDO! SLEEPS UP TO 8!
Welcome to Ocean Reef 1601
Our condo is a four bedroom 3 bath beach residence that sleeps up to 8 comfortably because all the rooms and the living area are quite large. This past fall we upgraded our condo with an elegant tile floor throughout the condo. As you’ll see from the pictures this beautiful travertine surface gives this beach residence a very special look. You’ll find the balcony to be quite large as well with plenty of seating for everyone to enjoy incredible views of the world’s most beautiful beaches. We like to bring our binoculars along when we come so that we can enjoy our morning coffee while we watch the dolphins playing in the gulf. Sometimes it seems like there close enough to touch. Our condo is decorated with a more upscale beach theme that’s very comfortable. We wanted to create the feel of the beach without “shouting it out”. We also wanted to make this a home away from home. For us and our guests. We hope you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy some of the unique features of this wonderful beach environment:

Thank you for the great review. We're glad everything was as described and that you had a wonderful stay. We hope to welcome you back on your next visit.
Overall the unit and property itself was good. There was an elevator down our whole trip and issues with the other 2 that were in service. Very long waits for them and at time the buttons weren’t working on the other two.

Thank you for your feedback — we appreciate you staying at Ocean Reef 1601.
We’re sorry the elevator outages and malfunctioning buttons caused long waits and frustration during your stay. Elevators and building systems are managed by the HOA/building management, not directly by our team, but that doesn’t make the inconvenience any less acceptable.
We will report these issues to building management and ask them to investigate. If you can, please share any additional details or photos via Vrbo messages so we can escalate and follow up.
Thank you for staying with us.

The condo is excellent. The furniture and supplies as well as the balcony view and the beach accommodations were all great. As great as the condo is, the elevator service overshadows the experience. One of the 3 elevators was out of order and has been for over a month according to the sign taped to the doors. Notice the dates listed on the out of order sign that I’ve attached. Several times we waited approximately 15-20 minutes for an elevator with room available to show up. We began to plan our movements around the elevator service.On our check out day, we waited for 50 minutes, and many completely full elevators, to get down to our car. It’s unacceptable.The owners need to take swift action to correct this problem.

We're happy the condo, furnishings, supplies, balcony view, and beach amenities met your expectations. We're very sorry the elevator outages and long waits overshadowed your stay—especially the 50-minute wait on checkout. Thank you for noting the out-of-order sign and dates; we’ll share these details with the building management and owners so they can pursue repairs and better scheduling and improve communication with guests.
We hope to welcome you back to Ocean Reef 1601.

What a perfect spot for our vacation! The condo was great with everything we needed. Communication was good and check in was effortless. The fact that it wasn’t overcrowded like other places nearby was an added bonus. We had a great family vacation here, and we highly recommend it!
