Property pictures were exactly what the property looked like. Within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Easy access to the beach and the pool was nice when we didn’t want to go to the beach. We would stay there again.

Ocean Reef 601 was easy to find and the parking spot and view directly overlooks the access to the beach. The beach access is literally a 1 minute walk from the condo’s door! Pool and laundry access right outside the door. Location is just 2 blocks from the main drag which kept it quiet from rowdy tourists, but close enough to walk to several restaurants/shops. We would definitely recommend this location to friends.

Overall great experience great view of beach short and easy walk to the beach. Close to everything and stores right across the street walking distance! When we arrived the a/c was out and they got it fixed that evening within 2 hours of calling so good customer service we will be staying again!!

We stayed in unit 601 with our 4 kids and had a great stay. The views were fantastic from each bedroom and the beach was within a few steps - the picture is no lie. The kitchen was well equipped with all we needed. You couldn't beat the location as we took the kids on walks to the souvenir shops, the Hangout, Bahama Bobs, ice cream, etc. Would definitely recommend this place.

The location was perfect. The condo could use some updated items in the kitchen. The place was clean, but after taking a shower I noticed my feet would be dirty (not sandy.)They need to have the cleaning crew mop the tile. We would definitely return!
Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2019

Steps from the sand. Nice pool, responsive manager. Would suggest management consider adding the following missing unexpected items: blow dryer (had to purchase one), non see through curtains in the kids’ room, a blender (this was a real disappointment), colander, and a slotted spoon. Otherwise we had what we needed.

The condo was very clean and well equipped. Views from the balcony (both bedrooms shared one balcony) were great. The complex had everything you could want, including an ice machine ($3.75 for 10 lbs) and grills. Pool was very clean, lots of shade from the buildings and lots of tables with chairs/umbrellas. Access to the beach was very easy, too. And even though I'm sure the place was full, I didn't hear too much noise (other than the lawn maintenance folks blowing sand off the pavement for a good while) from either the occupants or the street. I really liked the location of this condo within the complex. It had the views, the easy parking and beach access we desired. A/C worked great, kitchen was well stocked and plenty of towels and even an extra set of sheets, if you wanted to use the pull out couch. The owners keep a large dish with shells in it that folks have written little mementos on about their beach visit, which was really cool and the walls were nicely decorated so you didn't feel like you were in a run-of-the mill, chain condo. There was even a "book lending shelf" in one of the closets. And LOTS of channels and movies available on the TV. Like I said in the title - it is walking distance to the Hangout, the public beach access / parking and lots more. Plus, of course, all the Alvin's Islands you could want. All in all, we were very pleased and I would definitely rent again!

Had to evacuate NOLA from Hurricane Ida aftermath. They didn't price gouge, location was great and the condo had everything we could ever need. And they made it super cute and beachy, you can tell the owners put a lot of love into the place. Only downside were the thin walls. The condo above us was rented out twice in one week and was like Cirque du Soleil acrobatic troupes. Both families 8+ guests and no phone number to call and complain after 9pm. I wish whoever rents that unit out would ensure a limit on guests. Otherwise our condo was great. Would absolutely stay again.
