Ocean Reef 1708
We LOVED this property! I almost don’t want to tell anyone about so that I can book it again! It was the most clean and pristine condo I have ever stayed in. Gorgeous decor, upgraded kitchen and bathrooms. The property management sent messages to make sure we were happy. They did ask us to move the patio furniture inside due to Hurricane Helene, which we were mostly able to do, with the exception of the nice large table and some heavy chairs. We always enjoy Ocean Reef, but this was, by far, the loveliest place.- Posted: 9/25/2024
Stacy, Thank you for the 5-star review. We are so pleased to that you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the beautifully appointed condo. We're glad to hear that our property management team went above and beyond to ensure your comfort and safety during the hurricane. We hope you will join us again soon.

Brother’s Reunion 2024
Ocean Reef 1708 was a great location for our gathering. It was very spacious, clean, and conveniently located near restaurants and family activities. We really enjoyed the serenity of the ocean.

I have been staying at Ocean Reef at different condos, for many years, but this condo has far been our favorite. As soon as we walked in the door we could smell how clean it was and we were then greeted with a wonderful birthday cake, card, and balloons. We haven’t stayed at one condo in Ocean Reef that was as updated and inviting as this one. We will definitely book here again. Thank you so very much for the most amazing accommodations. We felt right at home.- Posted: 9/9/2024

Look No Further
I have stayed at many condos at Ocean Reef through the years, but this condo was by far our favorite. The condo had been beautifully updated with all the essentials. This was the first time we didn’t have to worry about beach chairs, a boogie board, or a cart to transport our belongings. The condo smelled clean and was very clean. I was also greeted with a beautifully decorated birthday cake, balloon, and card. It put a smile on my face since they took the extra step to recognize my birthday. Thank you for making us feel at home. We will definitely book here again next year!!!- Posted: 9/9/2024
Hi Shannon: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you loved our condo and that it was your favorite stay at Ocean Reef.

It’s our pleasure to help our guests feel at home. We can’t wait to welcome you back next year—your next visit can’t come soon enough!Real Joy staff

1708 was everything we dreamed of and more. Beautifully updated space and super clean, looked just as pictured. Wifi worked great for the huge TV in the livingroom. Big comfortable couch & master bed was so comfy compared to other places we have stayed before. Huge balcony, plenty of space with great lounge chairs and seating area for eating/game night. Also grocery cart was a HUGE + helping unload and load up. Easy check in, and not a million things you have to do prior to checkout. Not surrounded by big condos so the beach wasn’t crowded at all. The ONLY thing I could complain about is the air can not be put below 70 and we are an air on 68 when sleeping type of family, but it was a bonus that each room has a ceiling fan so it wasn’t bad at all. We will 10000% be staying here again and I highly highly recommend this condo/unit!!!! Also communication was easy and fast thru text messaging the whole time which was so much more convenient than email or phone call! Book this unit!!!!- Posted: 9/5/2024

The condo was perfect for our family vacation. Great size for our family of 4 with 2 little ones (4 yrs and 4 mos), and great proximity to the beach and local attractions. One of the listing pictures included a beach wagon. This was going to be a crucial part of the trip. However, when we checked in, there was no wagon. I contacted the host, and they bought a new wagon for us to use. I greatly appreciate the response. We will definitely use this condo again!!- Posted: 7/31/2024
Jessica, Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your vacation. We're so glad the condo was perfect for your family and that the proximity to the beach and attractions worked well for you.

Great View (Parking Tip)
The condo was great and we would stay here again. The parking spot is up against a wall making it very difficult to get in and out if there are cars parked behind you. I didn't think about it until the last day, but I wish I would have parked in the overflow parking to avoid this. Also, maybe it was mentioned and I forgot, but the condo does come with a couple beach chairs, toys, umbrella, and a cart that can be used to wheel stuff to and from the car (not for beach use). Would be great if they left laundry detergent instead of having to buy one for a single load.- Posted: 4/4/2024
Steve, Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the condo and appreciate the parking tip. We hope to see you again soon! Thank you for choosing RealJoy.Real Joy staff

Absolutely Perfect
Our mini spring break vacation was absolutely fantastic! The property was clean, security guard at the parking lot was pleasant. We had one parking pass with our unit, with an assigned spot. We had a 2nd car that we had to purchase a $20 parking pass for the overflow lot. (Conveniently located across the street) Great location, walking distance to many places. The condo was clean, nicely decorated, spacious, kitchen well stocked, and beds were comfortable. Beautiful views from the extra large balcony. Realjoy management team had great communication and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend staying in this condo!- Posted: 4/6/2024
Shannon, Thank you for the 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear your mini spring break vacation was absolutely perfect, from the clean property and pleasant security to the well-stocked and comfortable condo with its beautiful views.

May 2023 Beach Trip
This condo is amazing! Recently renovated with top-of-the-line stuff. The kitchen appliances, the sofa, the TVs, the mattresses, the flooring, it all feels brand new and super nice. The balcony view is fantastic. Location is incredible, the beach was never crowded despite being Memorial Day week. It’s also walking distance to Runaway Island, the best beachfront restaurant in PCB. No major or even minor issues with this room - other than the beach cart only having 3 wheels and there not being any luggage carts in the building. The condo itself is the nicest spot we’ve ever stayed at in PCB and we plan to this unit to come back next year.- Posted: 6/1/2023

Great weekend getaway
Myself and my kids met for a weekend stay. Ocean Reef was a wonderful choice for us. The location was wonderful. We especially loved that there is some open beach space to the left of the condo. It was not crowded at all. There were many shells on the beach while we were there. The communication with property management was clear and efficient. The workers at the parking booth were great. The parking garage is very tight. The elevators were quick. I recommend Ocean Reef. We hope to visit again soon!- Posted: 3/4/2022

Family vacation
Property was great, we got there right at 4:00 on the dot for check in. Once we got into room we found the master bedroom bed hadn’t been made yet. We called property manager and they sent someone out while we went to gather groceries at the grocery down the street. Our advise to management is don’t release door codes until unit is fully ready. Other than that we had a great time during our stay. Check out Jubilee fishing charter if you want to catch some fish while your there.- Posted: 8/4/2021

We stayed in 1708. Absolutely wonderful. Accurate pictures - extremely clean and up to date. Views to die for. Huge balcony. No issues. Pool spotless and kept clean. Attendant very helpful and always sweeping and picking up. Elevators clean and working well. Only downfall is location… no grocery close by to get basics. Otherwise perfect location. Amor donut across street is amazing!- Posted: 7/28/2021

Reef Condo at the Beach
This was my first experience with RealJoy/VRBO. The property was beyond my expectations. It was clean and well equipped with all the things I need/desired. I was especially happy with the cleanliness, location and service representatives. Would definitely refer this property to others.- Posted: 6/21/2021

Breathtaking View!
The property is everything just as shown in the pictures. Lots of food places and things to do in walking distances. The condo is very spacious for my family of 5. We loved the large balcony with a great view! It was great that you didn't have to check in at a front desk. They do not have luggage carts. I would highly recommend to bring a wagon with large tires (to make it thru the sand) to haul stuff up and down to the beach. The condo was clean and we didn't have any issues. There are sand toys so we didn't have to bring out own. I asked about beach chairs and was told there were none in the condo but in fact there were some. Wished I didn't have to bring our own. They do have a beach chair & umbrella service right outside the condo. We had never been to PCB. We had a great time and will be back to this condo!- Posted: 6/14/2021

My new paradise!
I brought 4 18 year old girls down for their last high school Spring Break and this place was perfect! The pictures are 100% accurate! This will now be the only place we stay from now on!! I honestly can’t think of anything the owners could do to make it more accommodating! The decor is great and the kitchen is stocked with all essentials. The balcony is amazing!!! We sure hated to leave but we’ll be back for sure!- Posted: 4/4/2021

Vacay
Stay was great even though the ocean with closed the whole nine days we were there. The day we arrived we wasn’t able to check in until exactly 4 o’clock. We went ahead and bought our groceries while we were waiting. That was a bad idea because there was no cart On the property. I would definitely acquire a cart for your guest. Or at least let them know ahead of time.- Posted: 9/14/2020
Tammy, we are sorry that you were not able to enjoy the ocean during your vacation stay, but we are glad that you liked your accommodations. We will forward your message to property managers so that they may review and assess the situation regarding the lack of cart. Thank you for choosing Real Joy.Real Joy staff

Great place!
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was very clean and we were happy to see there were chairs and sand toys available to take down to the beach. We left all of that at home and really didn't want to purchase any. The whole condo was clean, well kept, well stocked with cooking supplies and the decor is super cute! We also loved having the tables and chairs out on the balcony. We ate breakfast there every morning and dinner as well. Definitely recommend!- Posted: 8/19/2020
Tracy, we love that you enjoyed your rental so much that you would recommend this condo to others because you found it very clean, well stocked, and tastefully decorated. Thank you for choosing Real Joy.Real Joy staff

Great experience
We had a great experience at this property! We weren’t thrilled with the location though! It was a very packed area! And one of the elevators broke while there so 2 elevators made it hectic with 23 floors of guests!- Posted: 7/8/2020
Hi Michelle, Thank you for your review and feedback. We are delighted that you had a great experience. Please come back and visit again!Real Joy staff
