Amazing Condo!
My family and I were absolutely Blown Away from the magical views and perfect condo. This was our favorite vacation condo we have ever stayed at and we can't wait to come back! The property managers and security were wonderful And the owners were super nice and very accommodating. We liked it so much we extended our stay by 2 days

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 :)

A wonderful stay in a beautiful condo and resort.
After a we reaching thousands of condos I found the Gulf Pearl at ocean reef and even after search more and more I kept coming back to the gulf pearl at ocean reef. It was the perfect size for our 8 guests. We loved the large couch and the large table. The rooms were good sized. I did read a review that said they wish they had more hooks in the bathrooms so I did purchase and bring some over the door hooks with me and i donated them to the condo. I also donated some boogie boards in the deck box on the balcony. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed and the blender and the pots/pans/skillets were also nice. I couldn’t find a baking sheet other than a muffin tin and i couldn’t find the cutting boards until the last day but those are minor. The condo unit is very nice. The building is also nice. We didn’t wait long for elevators and it was in a nice equal distance from sights and restaurants. The location also allows cut through to back beach rd and middle beach rd to help make maneuvering easier. The traffic is terrible everywhere. Beach chair rentals are available outside the condo in the beach but they’re $50 per day. That’s ALOT. it’s not run by the condo though. Security staff was on point. The pool strictly closes at 10:00. So be aware.

This condo was perfect for us. There were 7 adults. We all had plenty of room. Really liked the parking spot for the unit was only one floor below. The furnishings and everything were nice.

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.

Overall great stay
Our group enjoyed our time. I feel like it had all the space we needed. 1 room was tight quarters but only 1 person stayed in that room, so it wasn't a problem for them. The large table was great for our game nights. The only issues any of us had was cleanliness. Every bathroom had hair left in the floor and stuck to the sides of the toilets. There were a couple hairs found on toilet seats. The master bathroom had toothpaste still in the sink. One of our friends ended up stepping on a small piece of glass by the table. I found another piece later on. That's my only qualms though. The cleaning person(s) need to do better or be replaced. Overall, we would definitely stay here again. The location was great. There weren't many condos by ours. So you almost feel like you have the beach to yourselves. Still close to a lot of great food options though. Definitely go to the donut joint across the street. You will thank me!

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.

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.

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!

This condo was almost perfect for our family. The owner was wonderful and very attentive to making our stay perfect. A few issues with the elevators, wait times and parking while we were, but these were out of the owners control. None of which made our stay any less enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again.

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.

Nice and clean
The shower head in the master bathroom did not work right. The vent to the dryer was stopped up full of lint and might want to keep a check on that as well for fire hazard plus had a huge bird nest in it and my husband cleaned that all out cause our clothes wouldn’t dry so that’s how he caught that. We left the birds nest in a plastic bag in the utility room so you could see what we are talking about. The tv controller in master wouldn’t turn volume up and down and in the room with the full size bed it also had tv issues. And was a very noisy condos could hear everything even when people above us took showers ect. But other than those few things it was very clean and nice.

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.

Caregivers Getaway
This property is prime location. The cleanliness of property was not up to par. We had to contact the property manager to have them clean all bathrooms due to hair, sand and the linens had to be changed as well. Also they had to clean the kitchen because of sticky counters. The mattress in the bedroom next to the laundry room was extremely nasty from pee and no mattress pad. Rugs need to be vacuum and supplies(i.e., paper towels/tissue/trash liners) need to be left in the location. A dust broom should be used in the condo instead of a broom to make it easier to mop the floor. The lock on the living room patio door was broken.

Unit is well located, clean and plenty of room for 6 adults. Parking is easy to get to the room, the parking structure is tight but adequate. It was also well described in the listing. Condo was furnished with everything needed for our stay plus extra beach items. Only compliant was the TV is in SD not HD, minor inconvenience but nothing major.

Beautiful condo - great location
Our experience was great. Beautiful condo and few people on the beach because of location. The check in process was tedious and had to drive across PCB to pick up papers that could have been emailed and bracelets that seemed like they could have been left in room since there is no keys to entry, only code. The man we spoke to on the phone upon arrival was super rude, but the lady who helped us later was delightful and super accommodating when the condo’s wagon was broken. Would definitely do some additional training with the man who answers the phone.

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.

Why they chose this property

Low density, some of the largest balconies anywhere, within a mile from Pier Park but not in the massive congestion of Pier Park, great amenities including a nice indoor pool, steam room and dry sauna, walking distance to Run-a-Way Island dining, Alvin's Island shopping, Funland Arcade and Hidden Lagoon min-golf.
This large 4 bedroom, 3 bath condo is spacious, well appointed and attractive. The resort is close to the corner of Front Beach Road and Nautilus Blvd. making it possible to get off Front Beach Road onto U.S. 98 (Back Beach) and the new parkway within minutes even when the beach is busiest.
