About this property

Ocean View within steps of the beach

Ocean's Reach is located in a fabulous private setting right on the Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy spectacular views from this beautiful direct gulf front one bedroom, one bathroom condo--only 50 feet from the beach. One of the best appointed one bedroom condos on Sanibel Island. Unit 2x2 boasts a totally new interior from floor to ceiling with many new furnishings, fixtures and accessories. With its king size master suite and queen size sleeper sofa, this tastefully-decorated condo easily accommodates two to four people.

Sanibel Island is known for great shelling, miles of trails for biking, and unobstructed beaches for walking. The shallow water allows for gentle swimming in the Gulf of Mexico, and the lush tropical vegetation adds to the experience of visiting the island. Enjoy casual island living in this friendly, small-town atmosphere. Strict zoning ensures limited commercial zones and no building is higher than four stories.

Come and enjoy a quiet, relaxing experience with great beaches, pools, restaurants, picnic areas and parks. Once you have experienced Sanibel Island there are few people that don't return. (Please note that rentals are from Saturday to Saturday unless a longer listing or a special agreement is made with the owner).

A heavenly get away!!

The condo was perfectly suited for me. The decoration and furnishings were so relaxing and beach related. I loved how close I was to the beach, and how I could look out of my living room and see the beach and the pool. I would definitely recommend and go here again. The owner and management were very helpful although I really didn’t have any problems or concerns I needed to go to them with, just a couple minor things that they got right on. I was surprised by all the extras that were available in the storage unit and the condo to make your stay most enjoyable. I definitely plan on going back.

Great Stay!!

We stayed in this unit June 13-20, 2020. Property is as advertised- clean, beautiful and excellent safe location. Communication with the owner of this unit was responsive, kind, welcoming, like talking to an old friend. Staff at Oceans Reach very friendly and helpful, great customer service when we interacted with them(renting bikes, umbrella, extra dish soap for the unit). Pool, "The Grove" beautiful, well kept, all equipment working. Staff going around before 730 am daily spraying/sanitizing pool area. Oceans Reach is at the end of a paved road, running off of Casa Ybel Rd., so its very quiet, serene, yet very accessible to shopping/restaurants. Restaurants and shops that we visited were open, only 1 business asked for patrons to wear masks, we did so. Restaurants we went to(Cips, Doc Fords, George and Wendy's, Joey's Custard, Lighthouse Cafe) did a great job sanitizing/cleaning between patrons. We so hated to leave, we have found our new, favorite vacation spot. Thank you, John, and the Staff at Oceans Reach for your kindness and excellent, welcoming customer service. Wishing all of you the best and hope to stay again sometime in the future. Randy, Ball Ground, GA..

Beautiful Beach Escape!

This property was wonderful and we will absolutely stay here again! The view of the beach from our unit was such a calming way to start and end the day. The unit is fully stocked with all that we needed, was comfy and restful, and a wonderful place from which to explore such a lovely natural island!

Wonderful slice of Paradise

The entire experience with booking to checking out was so easy. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. The condo was very comfortable and the pictures don’t do the view justice! Seeing it in person is just breathtaking! The property has many amenities and was VERY well maintained. The pool was surprisingly quiet and while swimming in it, all of the other guests were very respectful toward on another. Everything was as shown and advertised. We loved the parking carport area, very nice, it kept the car cool for when you jumped in to explore the island. The very short walk to the beach for my husband who has mobility issues was perfect. Short walk, even terrain on down to the beach which was especially nice for him. Evaluators worked and were a good size and clean. Can’t say but wonderful things! We would highly recommend and would love to return.

Incredible Week at Oceans Reach 2X2 (4/9-4/16)

This was our first time to Sanibel Island and to this property at Oceans Reach and both were absolutely incredible! The condo was extremely clean, updated and the description was spot on. John was great to work with, quick to reply with any questions I had and even proactively called me for places to dine, shop, etc.. We are already planning a return visit and would definitely book this unit again. Hopefully, for an even longer stay!! There's not enough superlatives in the dictionary to describe Sanibel Island, Oceans Reach and this unit in particular. Thanks John and I'll be in touch soon!

Perfect Paradise

The property is well taken care of and the place is wonderful! The views are better in person! The only thing I will say about the location is it is right over the pool. Most of the time (thank goodness!!), it was not an issue. The first couple days there were several, @ 12 to 14 year old boys in the pool, screaming for hours. They left on Sun or Mon. Also, I always prefer a salt water pool. Otherwise, everything was wonderful & I would highly recommend!!

This was our first stay at Ocean’s Reach and it was exactly as described! We had a great time! The owners were easy to reach and quick to respond. The office staff was friendly and very helpful! The location was perfect…easy access to the beach. Everything was clean and rentals (bikes, towels, beach equipment) was so easy being on site. I can not imagine a better experience!

Hidden away with wonderful views and access

This was our first stay at Ocean’s Reach. The last 12 years we have stayed at another condo complex but it was hard to get a unit with a view of the beach. Oceans Reach did not disappoint! It is well kept and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The condos are all a little different- so look them over for style and kitchen design. I loved having the washer and dryer in the unit and not a laundry facility. Bike rental was easy and we rented for the week. Our condo was nicely furnished, although the bedroom furniture was a bit large and made the bedroom “tight”. Other condos probably differ in that aspect. The covered parking is a big big plus. We rented a beach umbrella as the unit did not come with one. The chairs are plentiful (all beach type that do not lay out and recline). I plan to rent steamer chairs and an umbrella when returning. I recommend Oceans Reach for its small size, amenities and the fantastic views!

Nice condo. Perfect location.

Just returned from a fabulous week. Booked short notice and went solo as hubby could not get the time off and just needed to get away from the cold. Condo and complex are nice with pleasant staff. Safe and nice beach location for solo female. Convenient and affordable bicycle rentals right on property. Plenty to do alone: museums, wildlife refuge, miles of bike paths, shopping. Did not want to leave!

A great time

We had a great stay in our condo. The condo was very clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. We really liked having our own storage room next to our car. The complex had beautiful grounds. I enjoyed watching the bunnies that were hopping around the yards. The walk to the beach was very short and I loved that. The only negative thing I could say would be the construction noise. Some of buildings are being remodeled and the noise from the workers woke me up each morning. I could even hear the noise from the beach. Other than that we had a really great time at Oceans Reach! We can't wait to come back next year!
