The Prefect Location

I recently stayed at the Ocean Reef Condo in Panama City Beach, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The condo is oceanfront, and the views from the balcony were absolutely stunning—perfect for enjoying morning coffee or watching the sunset.The unit itself was spacious and comfortable, with four well-appointed bedrooms and three clean, modern bathrooms. It easily accommodated our group without ever feeling crowded. The living area was cozy and inviting, and the kitchen came fully equipped, which made it easy to cook meals when we didn’t feel like dining out.The only minor suggestion I would make is that the sofa in the living room could be replaced, as it showed a bit of wear. However, it didn’t take away from the overall comfort and enjoyment of the space.The resort amenities were great as well—easy beach access, a nice pool, and a secure, peaceful atmosphere. We also appreciated the convenient location, close to restaurants, shops, and attractions.Overall, I highly recommend this condo for families or groups looking for a relaxing beachfront getaway in Panama City Beach. We would definitely stay here again!

Below expectations

The property was in a good location but the room was not clean and was far below expectations. The top bunk bed was broken, dust everywhere, and there was a musty smell the whole week. The worst part about our stay was that there was dog hair everywhere, and considering that one of the people in our party is severely allergic, we will not be back. Additionally, there was a sock found on the floor when we arrived that was from a previous group, and the floor was gritty from sand before we ever went to the beach. There was sand in one of the beds before anyone has slept in it, and we had to wash, sweep, and deodorize the unit before we could even settle in.

Great couple getaway

We had 4 couples that stayed here for the weekend. It was a great getaway, location was convenient and an easy walk down to the beach. The layout of the condo was nice for couples. Only complaint was that we could not get the AC to go below 77 but it was extremely hot outside.

Would stay again ..

The condo and views were amazing & just as showed in the pictures. We had plenty of space, the pool was nice, and there’s a private walkway to the beach. We would definitely stay here again. The only inconvenience was having to go 15 minutes out of the way to pick up and drop off the wrist bands and instructions for the condo.

A Gem of a Condo in PCB

We have stayed in quite a few condos in PCB over the last 10 years and we loved this one. The location is great to Pier Park and several awesome restaurants. The condo itself was perfect. The beds and couch were comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. Parking Space close to stairs to the next floor condo. I would definitely recommend this one to stay in.

Paradise for a week

We had a wonderful stay in the Gulf Pearl @ Ocean Reef. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for our group. The unit was clean upon entering, balcony was large and the view was the BEST! Dr. George responded quickly to any questions or concerns we had and was very informative on things to do on double red flag days! The ONLY negative we had (which it was mentioned in booking) it they are strict on the 4 o'clock check-in. We got into town around 11:30am and spent our time at Pier Park and then Runaway Island (next door) until check-in time, so we were still soaking up PCB :)

We enjoyed our stay. The condo was very nice and just as the pictures. Its close to Pier Park and other great restaurants. The owner was quick to respond to any questions before booking. We were missing a parking pass and Ms. Carol brought it to us personally. Just remember it is summer. Be patient for the elevators loading and unloading on check in days. We would definitely stay again.

Location! Beautiful! Awesome Balcony!

Beautiful condo with room for all. The location was fabulous. The beach and pool are perfect. The balcony had amazing views especially of the sunsets. The only thing I would suggest is to get blackout drapes for the front two bedrooms. With the street lights etc. it was a little tough for those people to rest. Other than that, it was just perfect.

Good property but bring your own sheets

The property itself was as described and had a beautiful view, beach area, and pool. However, the sheets and pillowcases on the beds seemed to be the wrong size and had many stains. I only noticed after sleeping on it the first day, so I had to wash the sheets and use some of my own blankets. I would recommend the property as long as you bring your own bedsheets, blankets, and pillows.

PCB condo

The condo was spacious and the layout is great. Everything worked well inside the condo. It is close proximity to several restaurants, Alvin's island, hidden lagoon, and the pier park. Me and my enjoyed our time and liked the condo. The only con that I had was there should be more information regarding the parking. I understand we have 1 assigned spot, but we were told by the security guard if the overflow lot is full across the street that we would have to park at the other which is a quarter mile away near the covered walk over.

Beautiful location, very nice condo, but NOT CLEAN

The location was amazing, this condo has wear and tear and could be an amazing place. FILTH, so dirty. Dust everywhere. The beds have not been cleaned under in ages. There was still breakfast food droppings from the previous renters on the table and bench at the table. The stove and counter were so dirty. Left over toothpaste in the sink in master bath, toothpaste spit on the mirrors. Fingernail clippings on the joint bathroom. The entry carpet rug was not even vaccumed. Soap scum on the master bath sink. The base boards haven't been touched. This unit was not at all cleaned prior to our arrival. After calling the number they send people over to clean which was not done correctly so we cleaned ourselves. 275 cleaning fee, can not be justified here. After the cleaning people left we stripped the beds in fear that the bedding wasn't changed and we washed that ourselves. THE MATRESSES ARE DISGUSTING, horribly stained. And the pillows are all stained as well. The headboard in the queen room wasn't even bolted tight. There was dog hair all over the sofa and it smelled like wet dog. The owner needs to take a walk through this unit, strip the beds and pillows and see exactly what is going on with the cleaning service. We didn't let this ruin our trip, the condo was a good price and can be amazing. This is an honest review. I've taken photos.

Nice Location

Very very beautiful property and location to the beach. There's a cute breakfast place right across the street that makes awesome breakfast sandwiches (on a biscuit) and donuts. Convenient to the softball fields where we played. The beach was phenomenal. Hot tub was great on the days that were chilly. Minor feedback: I would recommend hooks in the bathroom and in the bedrooms to hang towels. The condo fits a lot of people, but there is no good place to hang towels in a organized way. Also, It would be nice if the condo came w/ paper towels, a decent amount of toilet paper and garbage bags. Everything else was perfect.

GREAT PRICE, OK PROPERTY - would consider again

Of the 15+ years going to Panama City Beach, this is the first time we've stayed at this property or the Ocean Reef location. Positives: The condo itself was large (great for a large family); the price was great; the beach wasn't crowded; fellow guests were friendly; beach service was great; distance from building to the actual water's edge is fantastic! Negatives: one of the only three elevators for the entire property was out the entire time; location isn't within reasonable walking distance to Pier Park (shopping/dining/entertainment area); unit could have been a little cleaner; surly parking garage attendant; over-flow parking is open lot across the street.

Great location but had a couple of issues

The location is great, and the building is nice. This unit was probably updated not too long ago, but much of the furniture showed alot of wear. Two of the bedrooms are small, with one having little to no room on the floor for suitcases. We had married children who couldn't make the bedroom work for 2 people. The other bedroom had bunk beds but they were a little shaky. So my son slept on the couch. Bedrooms had only 1 nightstand--made it difficult to charge phones and have them nearby. The manager was great--our washer was broken but she quickly worked it so that we could use a washer in another unit. We had a good time, but the bedroom situation was a bummer as my son didn't get good sleep.

2023 Graduation vacay

We had a great time and the condo was perfect for our needs! The communication with properly mgr? was great! Not sure why we had to go 10 minutes down the road to pick up the paperwork to check in, especially when everything else seemed on auto. But it was ok, Carolyn was wonderful to give thorough step by step directions & answer all my questions. Glad there was a Walmart nearby for groceries and other supplies. The condo had everything, it seemed, except cookie sheets to bake our fries on and no pot holders But we had foil and made our own and used towels for pot holders. We’re so grateful that that was the worst of it, it was such a nice condo and great location! We’d definitely recommend the 2nd week in August… very few crowds and at times we had the pool to ourselves. The wagons in the rooms were SO HELPFUL!! We used these so much to get all our stuff up to the condo and also when we had to stock up on groceries for the week. They also had fans which we brought our own, but so nice that a place actually thought of that!
