Enjoy Amenities, Beauty and Comfort in spacious beach front Sugar Shores

Enjoy complimentary beach service, 2 chaise lounge chairs and an umbrella, reserved for you on the famous, sugar white beach under clear blue skies as you soak up the brilliant shades of the aqua Gulf of Mexico.
Sugar Shores, at the Ocean Reef resort is a beautiful, contemporary, four-bedroom, three bath, sixth floor condominium at the Ocean Reef Resort. The perfect setting for wonderful vacation memories, Sugar Shores, will awe and inspire you. Inside, Sugar Shores will impress and pamper you. As you enjoy the ABCs of a perfect beach vacation: amenities, beauty and comfort, you may find yourself looking for excuses to delay your departure from Sugar Shores. But stay in the moment, relax and enjoy, after all you’ll be welcome to return to Sugar Shores. Most of our guests come as visitors and return as friends. Guests must have at least one person 25 years old in the party.

Breath taking sunrise views and mesmerizing tropical sunsets create the perfect setting to enjoy morning, noon or night on the “world’s most beautiful beach's”. The “real fun beach” beckons you to another day of wonderful memory making adventure and entices you to experience a romantic evening on Sugar Shore’s private balcony. Stars explode above and the moon reflects off the gently rolling waters below as an awesome tropical sunset closes another wonderful day on the beach.

Sugar Shores comes with a very convenient reserved parking sport just one flight of stairs away from the unit. There are additional parking spaces on the 5th floor & across the street to accommodate multiple vehicles, key-less entry, a collapsible shopping cart sturdy enough to transport items to and from the parking lot or the beach, etc.

The beach front, king size, master suite is an en suite with PRIVATE BATH & personal access to the Gulf front balcony. The suite has overhead & indirect lighting, excellent quality bedding, ample storage space & a flat screen television. Enjoy the beauty and privacy of the suite.
The Second, king size master suite has private access to the second full bath. Beautiful and thoughtfully decorated, it is also spacious and serene with ceiling fan, overhead and task lighting and a flat screen television.
BEDROOMS THREE AND FOUR are on the north side of the condo with perfect views of the Hidden Lagoon Mini Golf course across the street. They are furnished with a QUEEN BED & TWIN OVER FULL BUNK BED, ceiling fan, dresser, walk in closet and Jack and Jill access to the third full bath.
The full size washer and dryer is in the laundry room, right outside the fourth bedroom.
The kitchen is open and well-furnished to assure ease of preparation and service. The large granite bar, beautiful custom cabinets & back splash adorn the kitchen’s Coastal Living style appeal. Even KP duty is pleasant here. The cook has a good view of the gulf and sky.
Sugar Shore’s spacious family room is light & airy, with a large dining table, breakfast bar, sofa, love seat & 65 in flat screen, smart television. The living room includes a night and day chest with a comfortable queen size bed that doubles as an entertainment center during the day. The entire southern wall is windows and sliding glass door to the balcony, the views from this room are simply amazing.
Resort amenities include Indoor & outdoor pool, hot tub, exercise & elliptical room, covered parking, & walking distance to: Starbucks, Hidden Lagoon Mini Golf, Hidden Lagoon Race Track & Go Karts, Fun Land Arcade, Alvin’s Island and Topical Store & the popular Runaway Island Beachfront Restaurant & Grill.
Low density, is one of the great features to enjoy when you’re staying at Sugar Shores. On the east side of the resort, a very large portion of the beach is open and void of development. This greatly enhances the view and room to explore and play on the beach.

Extended families and friends may enjoy “Gulf Pearl” also; it is a beach front, 4 bedroom, 3 bath condo on the east end of the same floor.

Sugar Shores is less than a mile from Pier Park. Even closer, you may enjoy brunch at the Pancakery, lunch at Carrabbas Italian Grill or plan your next bike trip while walking through Indian Motorcycles of Panama City Beach or Harley Davidson PCB. There is also great fun nearby at the Aaron Bessant Park, Frank Brown Park with basketball, tennis, and pickle ball courts plus multiple soccer and baseball fields where traveling fast pitch softball and baseball tournaments are played every summer. Frank Brown Park is also home of the Panama City Beach Aquatic Center. Many of the exciting festivals and concerts are also at Frank Brown.
The results of a great vacation are strengthened bonds, new discoveries, relaxation and rejuvenation. The setting is vital to a great vacation. An excellent setting provides amenities, beauty, comfort, convenience and value. If a wonderful vacation is what you want; plan for it. Why not begin by choosing Sugar Shores at The Ocean Reef resort?

Dirty and in need of upkeep
The overall property, beach area and pool were nice. The unit we stayed in was overall unclean with mold on walls near air vents and returns, dirty walls and baseboards, and dirty bathtubs. Ants were in the kitchen. The owner had to come spray for the ants. The kitchen had plates and silverware and enough pots for us to make due but it did not have any baking pans at all which made our meal prep difficult. There were not even enough glasses for the 7 people in our party. The beds were adequate though uncomfortable. The linens and towels were clean. There was other deferred maintenance, e.g., broken balcony spindles that rattled loudly in the constant wind that blew off the gulf and the shoddy installation of dishwasher and plumbing fixtures. It felt that the overall care and upkeep of this unit was poor and created an unpleasant experience.

Average
The beach location was beautiful and the condo was average. It was a bit outdated and the furniture was very used/stained. Overall an okay stay, biggest complaint is the mattresses in each of the rooms were horribly uncomfortable and caving in the middle. Be prepared to bring your own toiletries. Only 1 toilet paper per bathroom, definitely not enough for 8 guest for a week’s stay.

Annual Friends Trip
The condo is in a great location. Easy beach access. The unit was well stocked and maintained. The owner personally contacted me after arrival to make sure the unit was to our standards. I suggested a few deeper cleaning items I noticed as an ocd cleaning business owner. He offered to have the items cleaned the next day. I told him that would not be necessary. But I did appreciate the follow up. I did NOT notice a single bug in the unit as previous reviews stated. We would rebook this condo for future trips.

Good vacation condo.
Love the location of this condo. Beach front was amazing. You get 2 chairs and an umbrella included in this condo that is located on the beach and they are set up for you every day. You have to go to the tiki hut and get assigned a number for the set of chairs that’s only your for the duration of the stay. You have the option to rent more chairs and umbrellas if you need too. This is amazing so you don’t have carry chairs back and forth. The washer stopped working while we were there but the property manager had great communication and was taking care of the problem right away. I would stay again. Condo was clean and fully furnished. The only downside to this condo is the parking garage. When you have a bigger vehicle, it is so difficult to get parked and then back out. The parking garage is small, the locations of the ramp to go from the forth to fifth floor is in a super awkward place. With that being said they do have overflow parking lot directly across the street and it’s super easy to get to and get out. We just parked there the majority of the time. So it wasn’t a problem just something I would have wanted to know before entering the garage. Overall enjoyed our stay thoroughly.

Wonderful!
We had a wonderful stay! The location is perfect and the floor is just high enough for great beach views and taking our luggage up. The unit is 1 floor above parking and overflow parking is on the same level. The only minimal comment was that it's probably time to replace mattress' but it was doable. It's hard to know unless you sleep on them. The check-in was a breeze and all the staff were friendly. We would definitely go back!

Overall nice stay with a few problems
The condo was in a great location on the beach with a wonderful balcony. Perfect size for my family of 6 ranging from 17 to 78 years old. The property manager was very friendly and helpful during our stay. She responded quickly & friendly at all hours. However, the unit and furnishings are looking worn. Beware of the parking garage. The unit assigns you a parking spot in the parking garage. The parking garage roof is so low that my small SUV tailgate hit a sprinkler pipe in the parking spot when we were unloading the car. It chipped my paint pretty bad ($600 estimate from my insurance company). I reported it to the association and they never contacted me again. So I guess I have to pay this out of my own pocket. I can't believe they didn't take responsibility for it since it was an assigned parking spot. If you rent the unit, I would recommend parking in the overflow area that is not covered.

Has Potential
This property has potential to be great, but the condo definitely needs some improvements. The location was nice. It was decorated nicely. It’s a bit more quiet on this end of the beach. The parking is covered, which is nice. It has about 6 overflow parking spots on each garage parking deck. The condo is only one floor above the assigned parking spot. The view is nice, except for the condos next door that are currently under renovation. There is plenty of space for a family in this condo. The condo was lacking in cleanliness. The tubs were very dirty or either stained. The toilets were yellow and disgusting when we arrived. The management company did replace the seats, but they remained very insecure, since they were tightened with a butter knife from the kitchen. Also, the toilets ran constantly, so that affected our sleep each night. The floors were sticky and made our feet black. There was no rain during the time we stayed, so I’m pretty sure the black didn’t come from the parking deck/roads. There were roaches as mentioned in previous reviews on VRBO. The pest control people did come and spray during our stay. The walls and furniture were dirty. The master bed and bunk bed mattresses were hard and you could feel the springs. The smell in the condo was horrible! The smell never went away our entire stay. This condo is next to the trash chute. We let the owner and management company know about the smell. The owner never responded.

Amazing location, dirty, bugs
The condo itself is beautiful and in an incredible location. The view is amazing. The beach and pool were great. You can’t beat the location. However, when I filter my search for places that are exceptionally clean, this left much to be desired. The toilet seat had drips of pee on it, the tubs were black with dirt and stains (not just stained). We killed many roaches (some other bugs too) during our stay as well. This unit is at the end of the floor by the floor’s garbage area and the entrance is from outside as well for anyone wondering. If this rental had no roaches/bugs, had a starter of shampoo, conditioner, hand soap for all bathrooms and if it was actually exceptionally clean, it would be hands down worth the price we paid. It has so much potential, but for those reasons we would not go back. The owner was responsive, but didn’t say much about the pee or roaches when I let her know. I’ve never left a negative review, but I want others to know what I wish I knew before booking.

We had a great stay at Sugar Shores. The unit had everything we needed and the location was in walking distance to some restaurants. Having to only walk up one flight from the reserved parking spot was perfect. The facility did have one elevator not working which caused for long wait times for the other two. Responses from the owner and property manager were timely for any questions we had about the property.

We had an amazing time at Sugar Shores, Unit 601. Dr. George was easy to reach and responded quickly. We had no issues while at the condo. It is spacious, was very clean and had plenty of kitchen items and bath towels available. One thing to note when renting the condo is that a beach wagon/cart is provided by the owner (it can be found in the master bedroom closet). There are no luggage carts on the property.

My family of 8 stayed here last week. We had 6 adults and 2 15 year olds and had more than enough room. The balcony has great views and plenty of space. The kitchen is well stocked. It was very covenient to have a washer dryer in the unit. Parking is tight especially for large vehicles, but if it is too tight, you can park across the street. The owner is easily reachable and even contacted us after checkin to make sure everything was in order. The staff at the facility are very friendly.i would definitely stay here again.

Boy it was windy!
For a vacation that was booked a year in advance we certainly pick a windy week, short of a hurricane! In spite of that the apartment and facilities more than made up for the weather. The accommodations were very clean, well maintained, spacious, well furnished and equipped with pretty much everything you could need. All of the apartments face the Gulf and have a balcony that is huge! We had eight people in our group and we could all go out and watch the waves, and there were plenty of waves, with room to spare. The kitchen was equipped with all the tools and gadgets, plates, cups, deluxe Keurig coffee maker, crock pot, utensils, over the stove microwave, and dishwasher. Each bedroom had a TV and there was a big screen in the living room and the master bedroom. The property is quiet except when the wind is really blowing as the balcony railings vibrate throughout the entire building and make a low buzzing noise. Not enough to be a problem but curious until you know what it is. The beach is clean and wide and the sand is the perfect consistency for sand castle construction. Each unit gets two lounge chairs and an umbrella on the beach. The property personnel were all very friendly and helpful, especially the parking attendants. We had two cars and a van but only two parking spaces are allotted. There are offsite lots that allow weekly parking for a reasonable rate. There’s also a ton of things to do within walking distance. I highly recommend Sugar Shores and the Ocean Reef.

2023 FAMILY VACATION
We enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was roomy, clean, and a great view of the ocean. It was a small inconvenience having to stop at a lock box just to get instructions and the parking passes. Easier to just email us the code and have the passes in the room. The dishwasher did not work and after one call a maintenance person was there the next day. He had to order a part and it was Thursday before it was fixed. We left on Saturday. The kitchen had what appeared to be mostly new utensils. It did not have any baking pans, needs a new can opener and please leave more dish cloths and drying towels for the kitchen. The sheets in the front master did not fit the bed properly. The mattress pad was stained. Should be replaced.

Dishwater didnt work, microwave didnt work the first 3 days and then a repairman came and showed us a way around to use it(none of the top buttons worked),very poorly stocked kitchen(no can opener, no containers for leftovers, no cookie sheet or flat pans)that property manager brought stuff on Thursday (we left Saturday morning), safety hazard on balcony with broken rail, and worst of all ROACHES!!!!!! No night locks on doors. This condo is in desperate need of a renovation!
