Newly Renovated Beach Front Condo with BEACH CHAIR SERVICE, High Speed Wifi

*Monthly Winter rates are available*

Ocean Reef #803 is back on the rental market and we can't wait to be your host once again! We are situated directly on one of 'The World’s Most Beautiful Beaches' and is unlike any other condo in Panama City Beach. We only have 161 units, over 320 feet of fine sandy beach frontage and we are not located next to other high-rise condos. Being on the West side of PCB means our beach frontage is less crowded and traffic is not as congested as other parts of the city.

When you walk into #803 you’ll instantly feel relaxed as you look out into the Gulf’s emerald beauty. The view of the Gulf is visible from almost every room in the condo. It is a beautiful, updated and professionally decorated 2 bedroom / 2-bathroom condo with 1146 sq ft. of living area.

Walk on into the condo and you will pass through the kitchen that has new fresh paint and gourmet amenities including a new dual coffee maker so you can choose to use pods or make yourself a pot of coffee. Getting in late? No worries, there will be a couple of pods to get you through the next morning while sitting on the spacious balcony and listening to the waves come crashing in. It is also equipped with a dishwasher, stove, washer/dryer and new pots/pans, mixing bowls and silverware for you to make your own meals if you so choose.

The balcony is nothing short of spectacular! It is 10'x28' and outfitted with a countertop table and 4 chairs, 2 deep chairs with foot stools, and 2 loungers! It is the most absolutely perfect place to start your day off with a cup of coffee and to end it while the waves lull you to sleep. If you're lucky, you'll get to see the Dolphins out playing! It's definitely a sight to see!

The living room is freshly painted & decorated with a 48" Smart TV equipped with YouTube TV. Couch bought 5/2024 and is a queen sofa sleeper. 2 new swivel chairs, and new luxury vinyl plank flooring

Master bedroom is equipped with a king size bed, Pottery Barn bedding, luxury thread count sheets, and a new full size dresser. Large smart TV and access to the balcony where you have a BEAUTIFUL full view of the Gulf. Private access to master bathroom that has a new walk-in shower and double vanities

The second bedroom has just received a complete makeover as well! New furniture, king bed a 40" Smart TV above the dresser, new fresh bedding, luxury thread count sheets, and decor.

We provide all your linens, dishes and cookware, and liquid hand soap at each bathroom sink and dawn dish soap at the kitchen sink. Eight bath towels, 8 wash cloths, and individually wrapped Scotch Brite sponges are provided. A full size washer and dryer are in the unit for your convenience. There is no daily maid service. All you need is food, beach towels and sunscreen!

The location of this condo couldn’t be in a better place!

Wonderful Beach Condo on PCB

The condo came just as advertised and my family had a terrific stay during our Spring Break. The furnishings were nice and the unit was very clean.I especially liked the balcony access from the primary bedroom suite. The kitchen was fully stocked, the balcony was very nicely appointed and living room and bedrooms were very comfortable. The rental comes with two beach chairs and umbrella which we used every beach day. And, the designated parking spot was a nice touch since you didn’t have to search for parking every day.This rental is privately owned, so you communicate directly with the owners who were very available. We didn’t have any issues, so we didn’t need anything, but assistance was just a text away.The condo is located in the middle of PCB, so pretty much everything from restaurants to Pier Park were just a short distance away.I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a stress free week on the beach.

Spring Break 2025

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Reef during the last week of March. Our accommodations were top notch. The unit was comfortable, well maintained and well stocked. A high degree of care was taken to anticipate every need. We had questions upon arrival and the response time was impressive. If you are looking for a beach destination with amazing views, you will not be disappointed with this unit. We would not hesitate to spend time at this facility in the future.

Our new favorite!

Ocean Reef 803 from Tranquil Beach condos lives up to the name-Tranquil. The unit is decorated in soft coastal tones, furnished beautifully, including lovely granite countertops. Comfortable beds, fine linens, and thick towels rivaled a luxury hotel. And the deck-what a treat! Everything about our stay was perfect. The owners were excellent, quick to respond to every inquiry. I hope we are fortunate enough to stay here again!

Lovely Condo

My boyfriend & I stayed a week & the condo was exactly as pictured. Balcony was super nice & extra big in comparison to other properties we’ve rented. Host were very responsive with questions we had. The condo itself was nicely decorated and we appreciated the extras that most owners don’t offer, i.e., toilet paper, dishwashing detergent, hand soap, shampoo & conditioner.

Fabulous!

The condo was absolutely perfect for our beach vacation. We spent so much time on the large patio enjoying the view and the sound of the waves. Every morning we watched for dolphins and found that they were swimming right outside our condo. The sand is great the beach location is great the condo is clean and very welcoming. Definitely check out Amore donuts across the street

Nice condo

It was a very clean and nice Condo. Only thing is... I asked a question to owner and the owner was kinda a smarty about her answer that didn't have to be called for. Yes the answer was in a previous emailed that had been sent a while back from question but she didn't have to be rude about it all she hasd to do was state the answer to the question. But other than that the condo itself was very nice.

Wonderful condo

Looks just like pictures. Most beds were comfortable. Great view and beach chairs with umbrella. Partially stocked which was helpful. Loved all of the beach accessories. Only complaint is the dryer had an issue with the lint holder corner sticking up and ended up damaging 5 items of clothing. Otherwise that is literally my only complaint. The hosts are very responsive. Check in was super easy and not a whole lot to do at check out. Great location. The beach portion has more sand built up before the water so had to walk a little down to get safely in ocean with my toddler. Water was beautiful as always. We didn't get to try out the other condo amenities like the pool or hot tub, but they looked clean and taken care of. Be careful with parking. Parking spots are smaller for an SUV and I saw tenants taping pool noodles cut in half to protect from door dings. Lucky we took a rental so we didn't worry so much but be prepared. The parking garage is small so you can't turn the corner without backing up from our experience. The parking to condo elevator was really nice. The condo cooled off well once the curtains were closed while we were gone for a few hours. Overall I would rent again based on the experience. Couple of hiccups but definitely still worth renting again for the price.

Amazingly beautiful condo in a great location!

This property was everything promised plus so much more. We were not disappointed at all. Check in was easy as could be, the condo was clean and felt like home. The kids loved the pool and hot tub almost every single night. We enjoyed crab hunting in the beach at night as well. So much to do and see in the area that we were never bored. The view from the balcony of the ocean is breath taking. Loved our vacation away!

About the host

Hosted by Jayson and Patsy Cruse

Host profile image
We have been married for 25 years and moved here from Kansas City in 2023. When we aren’t working you can find us spending time with family, on the water or traveling back home. We have always believed strongly in making memories with our children and look forward to helping you do the same!

Why they chose this property

Jayson's dad and stepmom retired and moved to Panama City Beach and we have loved coming to visit frequently over the last couple of years. The people are happy and kind and we've always felt at home here.
We had always stayed in condos during our visits and loved the homey feeling compared to a hotel environment.
The beach is private so it's not as crowded and we love that security is always patrolling and making sure that the amenities are only being enjoyed by those staying at the condo.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this property because of the Gulf View from the balcony and the fact that we could be almost anywhere in the condo and still see the Emerald Beauty. When we walk into the condo, it truly feels like home!
