About this apartment rental
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:

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
It was very easy to find and very close to lots of activities.
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2025
Our condo was amazing and very clean!!! The view was breathtaking!!! The condo was equipped with everything you would need to cook and have all meals on site. So much was in walking distance for us and young children.The only negative about this is that we were on the 16th floor and 95% of the time, only 1 of the 3 elevators were working and it made for long wait times and other unhappy visitors.Don’t let the elevator issues discourage you from staying here as again, the views made up for it and our vacation was absolutely wonderful! We will def stay here again!!

6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
**Hotel Property:**
The staff was very friendly and helpful, particularly the parking attendants who assisted with the limited parking situation. For a 4-bedroom condo, it was frustrating that some units clearly had two designated parking spots while we were only assigned a single designated parking spot. Fortunately, they have additional parking across the street that is free. The main thing is that this hotel doesn't have any baggage trollies. This was very disappointing considering how many guests they receive and the inconvenience of carrying all the bags to the hotel room.
We had an issue with the smoke detector batteries dying and found it difficult to reach property management by phone. It would have been better if they clearly communicated that texting is the best way to contact them. Once we texted, maintenance arrived quickly and resolved the issue. The property itself doesn’t offer many amenities, but it’s great if you're primarily looking for beach access. Ice is overpriced.
**The Room:**
Cleaning was very basic, with dust everywhere above and below eye level. The mattress was uncomfortable, and the pillows were so thin we had to stack all the extras just to get some neck support. I didn’t get the rest I needed because of this. The furniture could definitely use some updating, and the ceiling fan seemed unstable, making me worry it might fall. The AC control panel was barely attached to the wall, adding to the feeling that the room needed better maintenance.
