Beautiful inside and out
My husband and I were schedule to be at Oceans reach from 8/31/17 to 9/10/17. Upon check in we found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. The property is beautifully maintained. Our condo was very nice and furnished in a very pleasing beach theme. We did have to be evacuated from the island due to hurricane Irma, but even that was handled so well. We will be returning.

The staff was really, really, really, I meant REALLY nice and accommodating. This would be the reason why I would not even look anywhere else, even if I found better accommodation. Not that we had to deal with them everyday, but anytime we did, they were overall totally awesome. The room we had (2x2) was located in the 2nd building, 2nd floor, right above the pool, and with a beach view. The unit was really comfortable /but the bed/, with an incredible view. It was our first time, and I can't wait to go back next year.

Fantastic Clean Condo, ON the beach
Nice Friendly staff from the start, Clean as a pin Condo, full kitchen great balcony view and TONS of seashells. They have an Osprey nest pole right in the middle of the resort so you can view the pair daily. Provided beach chairs and shell nets. Kitchen was fully stocked with coffee maker, all sorts of pots and pans, dishes etc. Provided all soaps for kitchen and laundry for you. Washer and Dryer in unit was great. Will go back in a heartbeat. Great local restaurants near by.

Great beach stay!
We loved this place. It is right on the beach and there is a great view from the lanai. The condo had all of the comforts of home. The bed was comfy and the towels were soft. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. Everything was wonderful from check in to check out.

Great place to stay right on the beach!
Very happy with the choice to stay here. Condo had great supplies & beautiful beach & ocean view. Loved the outside grilling area! Only problem we had was the 'answering service' after office hours when a breaker went out & they never got ahold of anyone for us that evening & couldn't tell us where to find the breaker box for ourselves...other than that we had a great time!!

Excellent, relaxing location, on the beach
Very nice location, good value & located right on the beach. In December, the beach is nearly deserted. Plenty of very nice restaurants nearby, & a very nice full grocery was close (Bailey's General Store). Bike trails are everywhere. The condo was completely furnished (from pots & pans, to books, to plates, glasses & utensils) & clean upon arrival. Covered parking was a nice feature. Rooms were very quiet, little noise coming through from other units. Balconies all overlook the water. We felt very safe there. This entire island is a very restful location. If you like daily maid service & lots of entertainment, this is not for you, but was a perfect relaxing locale for us. Don't bother making any special requests, we booked nearly a year in advance, asking for a top floor, but only got a second floor unit. Also, Expedia reports checkout time of noon, but on arrival, you are told it is actually 10:00am, no exceptions. We had booked our return flight with a noon checkout in mind. The only explanation was "Expedia shouldn't say that". I've never been to a facility with a checkout that early.

Paradise
A place must to go. If you are looking for peace, silence, nice sea view, awesome environment, full contact with mother natura and total relax-no stress, you should go to Ocean Reach Condominiums in Sanibel. Hotel's rooms are super cleans and full of linnen and everything you need to live. Maybe september its not a perfect month to find a cristal water in the beach, the whether condition was not great ( windy, long waves ) but you can visit the pool always warm. One tip, if you want to saves money in food, go to Jerry's market. I recommended this place to my friends.

HIGHLY RECOMEND THIS AWESOME CONDO ON THE BEACH!
My husband and I went to Sanibel to celebrate our 15-year wedding anniversary. Ocean's Reach Condominiums made the trip fantastic! From the moment we arrived, we were in love with the place. It is directly on the beach and every unit faces the ocean. It was a breathtaking view! The screened-in patios and balconies overlooking the water were an added bonus. Our particular unit was clean, nicely decorated, and had a wonderful, fully stocked kitchen. Everything was comfortable, nice and clean. The shower was a great size, too. We loved the storage unit and carport that came with the unit. The storage unit had beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and more available for our use! The staff at Ocean's Reach was friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful and offer a common place to grill, basketball court, tennis, and a wonderful pool! It was absolutely one of our favorite places we have ever stayed and we can't wait to go back!

Great place for family vacation
Ocean's Reach was a great place for our family vacation. The facilities and condos are very clean and well maintained. The beach is steps away and was beautiful! The only complaint was that with 64 units, one pool got very crowded but thankfully we came for the beach anyway.

Nice place for a visit
We stayed in a one bedroom condo with our 2 year old daughter. Our room was clean and ready for us when we arrived. Very nice to have a living area separated from the bedroom. The women working the desk were friendly and helpful. All rooms face the ocean, so even when I fell ill I had a nice view. The beach was clean and quiet. You could rent umbrella's, but lucky for us our condo had chairs and an umbrella with it. It was also nice to have a covered parking spot. Helped keep the car cool. Saw many people using the grilling facilities. We used an island rental service for a pack and play that was in our condo waiting for us when we arrived. The kitchen in our unit was pretty tiny, not a problem unless you wanted to cook a big meal or have more than one person in the kitchen.

Secluded perfection.
A long palm tree lined drive leads you back to a gulf side scene from a postcard. By far the cleanest place we have ever stayed. The amenities and facilities were equally impressive. Professional experienced staff give you as much help and info. as you need, or as much privacy as you can stand, you pick. We will definitely return year after year Lord willing!

Ocean's Reach
I LOVED this place. Every unit faces the beach. They have 1 and 2 bedroom units all decorated in the owners individual styles. I had a 2 bedroom 2 bath unit with a fantastic kitchen....and an ice maker that made so much ice I coukld have filled a bathtub! This place has everything. The pool is on the small side but you have miles of ocean.They offer bike rentals right on the property so you don't have to wait. And kudos to the staff. Everyone was so helpful and informative about what to do and see on the island. I'm coming back next year for sure.

Beautiful view
Our family of four stayed for the first time on Sanibel Island at the Ocean's Reach condominiums. Staff was excellent, view cannot be beat (right on the beach), very clean. Only gave 4/5 because our condo felt somewhat small for four adults and the beds were somewhat uncomfortable - but that is a personal rating - might be "just right" for someone else. Our condo was extremely well equipped and the "shed" not only had beach chairs, but fishing poles, coolers, pool noodles, boogie boards, etc. We ate breakfast and lunch in the condo, and enjoyed several Sanibel restaurants for dinner.

Clean & Cozy
This place was very cute and immaculate, in a good location close to everything. Our unit was 2a1 and was extremely comfortable. It was located directly in front of the pool, so it could get a little loud during the day, and our view basically was people swimming or people watching us in our condo, so if privacy is top on your priority list, you should get a higher floor. It wasn't a huge deal,..but just a little annoying. It is a very low key quiet place, which I liked, but I sometimes wished they had a poolside grill or bar. You can take a very short walk to Casa Y bel bar and grill Coconuts. Other than that no complaints, we had a nice time with our two boys, 11 & 15. Saw dolphins at our beach. Some days the water was clear, other days a little murky. Did some nice day trips. Recommend "Sanibel Thriller" for day trip,

Quite, Relaxing, No Pressure
One of the cleanest properties on Sanibel! Very laid back and relaxed. If you don't need a lot of amenities (beach attendants, daily maid serivce, spa / gym, on-premise dining), this is a terrific place! They do offer bike rentals, tennis, shuffleboard, a small library, and direct beach access. They also provide beach chairs and umbrellas, but remember your own beach towels! Price was very reasonable. Suited our needs. We have stayed at other properties on Sanibel, and would definitely go back to Ocean's Reach!

Wonderful condominium for a family with small kids
We just spent five days at Ocean's Reach and had a lovely time. Exquisite view, a wide expanse of white beach, a shelling extravaganza. The condominium was beautiful, clean, comfortable, had all the furnishings of home. Our rental bikes were there waiting for us in the car park. Location was great; we rode our bikes everywhere and didn't even need the car. Our three year old loved playing in the sand and swimming in the pool. Our eighteen-year old loved the whole of it too. Cannot imagine a better place to go to escape the cold of the north for a short spell.

Outstanding condo
Ocean's Reach is the ideal spot to enjoy the island-style life on Sanibel. Beautiful facility and grounds, friendly and helpful staff, and the superb, clean beach are highlights of this property. My one-bedroom condo was immaculate and well-supplied with the expected amenities. There were even DVDs, Binoculars, games and reading material in the condo. I will definitely book this condo again to return to the beautiful Sanibel Island.

Nice complex but be careful which unit you select
The complex is right on the beach, which is great. Plus, it is off of a side street, so there is no traffic noise -- just the sound of the waves. The unit we were in, 3X1, was a one-bedroom, one bath with a small screened-in porch. Overall the complex and the unit were well-maintained and well sound-proofed so that we didn't hear our neighbors through the wall. The covered parking was convenient and the pool and surrounding area were immaculate. The flat-screen TV, DVD player, etc. were excellent. However, there were a few disappointments. First, the bed was uncomfortable. In addition, the mattress cover and the bottom, fitted sheet would not stay in place no matter how many times we put them back so that we ended up sleeping on the mattress. The sofa was very uncomfortable as well, and it was the critical item of furniture in the living room. There was no coffee table, either. I did report this to the staff and they promised to take note. We would recommend the complex but unless these items are addressed, would not recommend this particular unit.

Tranquil, but somewhat boring.
The condo and facilities were clean, well maintained and generally welcoming. The staff was unobtrusive, but helpful. The appliances are near new, tons of kitchen utensils and dishes, large refrigerator with ice maker. First floor condo is on the beach level, creating a special feeling of closeness. An exceptional place for mature adults, but also accommodating for young families. Not much to do in the vicinity though. There are several attractions and activities withing driving distance, reachable by bike too, but nothing near - just beach.

Ocean's Reach is a great spot. It is right on the beach and convenient to everything. They give you a storage unit near your car which is very handy to put beach stuff in so you don't have to lug everything to your room. It is close to Jerry's market and lots of restaurants.

Glorious vacation spot
We loved this condo/hotel. Our first floor apartment had a perfect view of the Gulf of Mexico out our front sliding glass door. The nearby beach and pool were wonderful. The apartment itself was in perfect repair and condition, and so many eateries were only a short drive away. We thought this was the perfect vacation spot, and in September the price was right, along with beautiful weather.

Totally Relaxing Condo on the Beach
The condo unit was clean and attractive., the pool was never busy, beachfront complex. Full kitchen was well equipped. Condo does not provide maid service during stay, but that made it all the more relaxing. Registration building had short hours. Needed more hangers, and had to wait til next day to request them. But staff was friendly and relaxed, and we loved the the experience and would be anxious to return.

As beautiful as it was advertised online
We had a wonderful stay at Ocean's Reach, and I was so excited to walk into the room and see that it looked just like it did on the website. We had an ocean view room which was amazing! The front office staff was very friendly and helpful, and one of the ladies even was a member of the local Chamber of Commerce and was a wealth of information. The only thing we didn't realize is that several businesses are closed in the middle of September and re-open I guess in October when the season starts again. We would definitely return for another stay1

Beautiful Sanibel Vacation Spot
Ocean's Reach Condos meet and exceeded all of our requirements. The individually owned condos are well equipped and very clean. Wendy and the front desk staff are very personable and extremely accomodating. Views of the beach are lovely. We had a lower level, walk out unit which was perfect and although we were near the pool, it was very quiet. The units have a screened in lanai which is a nice feature. Ours did not have a ceiling fan which limited its use in the searing heat of Sanibel. Other units did have fans making the lanai a wonderful spot for morning coffee. Overall, this trip was one of our best vacations considering all factors - reasonable price, comfortable facilities, availability of on site bike rentals and more. I would not hesitate to recommend Ocean's Reach to couples or families. You will come home with a tan and a beautiful collection of shells and memories.
