Keywords: Condo
This top floor (4th) outside corner unit is all about the views. See sunrise daily while enjoying your morning coffee. From the side, you look out of four large windows down the beach for miles. You can see the people shelling, fishing, swimming and walking along. The water has a greenish aqua color most days with blue hues in it. Look out front and you can see the open Gulf and different boats going by while hearing the surf. It is magnificent. It is all about the Views --endless Views.
A new lanai set is there for for your comfort to watch the sunrise each morning coming up out of the gulf. It rises like a big red ball while the sky turns pink and rose. The living room is equipped with the new 42" HDTV for your later evening enjoyment. The master bedroom and the twin bedroom also has 2 new 32" HDTVs so that everyone can see their favorite program.
The dining room set was also installed this year and is very comfortable with large chairs and also a great view out the side window and front sliders. Hear the sound of the waves while watching the beach from your dining table.
The master bedroom has sliders to the front lanai and you can see the sunrise without even getting up from bed. It is a wonderful sight. Hear the sound of the waves while lulling you to sleep, another day in paradise. Sanibel has a tropical island ambience as 2/3 of the island is a preserve. The city maintains very small signs and keeps the roadway beautiful with different palm trees. Enjoy the beauty of Sanibel.
Ocean's Reach has been totally redone with new pavers, gardens, a grove for picnics with grills and lighted palm trees, newly resurfaced pool with tiles around and large flower gardens, and out back we have new benches to watch the games of tennis, basketball or shuffleboard. We also have a new Osprey nest up very high on a pole and the osprey is building his nest daily. He has loud chirps and is very visible from our back or the doors going into the condo. There are bike paths all over the island with little bridges to go over and the Ding Darling preserve to explore. See magnificent birds and an occasional alligator as well as other wildlife. Enjoy paradise.

From the moment we walked in the door we felt we never wanted to leave. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The only thing we thought this condo needed was some new pillows in the master bedroom. Our favorite activity was sitting on the lanai watching the sunrise, eating breakfast, watching the surf, the birds, the sunset and watching the moon rise over the gulf. We really didn't want to leave. The sense of peace and tranquility was fantastic. The owners did a great job decorating and the condo is even more beautiful in person. We would highly recommend staying at Oceans Reach to all of our friends and relatives. Hopefully, there will be a week open for us when we return to Sanibel Island next time.

Thanks for all the care with which you "outfitted" 1D4 so that we were able to relax and recoup. All the niceties helped Tremendously but what we most appreciated was how the unit echoed the beauty of its surroundings so that we could still enjoy the beach when the weather made it difficult to go out. We hope to meet you one day to thank you both in person. With much appreciation.

The condo was exceptional with all the views as advertised. Clean, well decorated with all the amenities to make for a great stay. We enjoyed our stay at the Ocean's Reach, great resort and the beach was just a few steps away. The location was close to shopping and restaurants and nature attractions. We would stay again.

What a glorious week. Nothing but hot sun, sand and beautiful water... a much needed respite from cold, dreary New York! The sunrise over the Gulf was the cherry on this luscious cake. We so enjoyed our week of swimming, shelling, biking to breakfast and just plain rejuvenating. Thank-you! Steve, Susan, Victoria and Alex

We stayed the first week of October. The owners and on-site management were a pleasure to work with. This was our first time on Sanibel. We were looking for a two bedroom/two bath in a small to medium sized complex (no crowds at the pool), on the beach, with a good view from the balcony. The condo itself is all it is advertised: tastefully decorated, wireless internet, large televisions, DVD player wireless internet and all the appliances and dishes. The view for morning coffee is wonderful! The complex is VERY well maintained and has all the amenities: tennis court, shuffleboard court, basketball goal, picnic area with grills and a swimming pool in the right location to get the sun. We were pleasantly surprised to see that our location was also convenient to eateries and shops! If you are looking for a nice condo in a nice complex, that is well managed ... this is it. No drama ... relax and hear the waves as you look over the beach and the water.
Owner response: 1D4 is the end unit on the top floor and does have a wonderful view of the beach for 5 miles. The shellers and morning sunrise people are out picking up shells or taking pictures of the wonderful sunrise. Enjoy this while having your morning coffee on the lanai. The restaurants are close by and also boat rides are available to the other islands. Many little shops and a theatre for plays are also here. In winter, the movies ( 1 mile away) play the Academy Award nominations and we discuss them at the pool. Enjoy the natural beauty of Sanibel and the beach.

This is the first time we have stayed so close to the water and beach. We have been to Sanibel Island several time and always love it. Thank-you for sharing your lovely condo with us. We are already talking about "when we can come back!!!" The week just goes too fast and we have to head home with just memories and sand in the front of the van, forever!! We do hope to return --until then. Than You Again. P.S. The sunrise IS Awesome!!

We enjoyed our return to Sanibel - and had fabulous weather all week. Lovely sunrises, great shelling, enjoyed walking on the beach and seeing dolphins, manatees and pelicans from our seats on the beach. Especially enjoyed swimming in the ocean with a dolphin! We enjoyed moonlit nights with a full moon that week and flying the stunt kite on the beach. Thank-you for letting us stay in your beautiful oceanfront condo!

We've had a wonderful time here--loved our time on the beach: shelling, sunning, and fishing. Even shelled one night under the full moonlight. Memorable moments. Carol
Owner response: When you look out the window and it is dark outside here at Ocean's Reach, 1D4, you will see people on the beach with flashlights. If it is low tide, even at 2 in the morning, people are out there with their flashlights looking for a special shell. After high winds or a storm, many new beautiful shells wash in. Sanibel is an East-West island and therefore it catches many shells and is one of the 10 best beaches in the world for shelling. We have lamps made from shells we have picked up on the beach. Enjoy the beauty of Sanibel.

This was our first trip to Sanibel. We thoroughly enjoyed your condo with it's spectacular views. We found some shells on the beach--don't know what to do with all of them. We had a great time and enjoyed every minute. the Lord has blessed this trip for us and now it's time to go. Thanks again. David and Tammy Toccoa, Georgia
Owner response: Enjoy the beauty of Sanibel with the sunrise every morning while sitting on the lanai on comfortably padded dining set or chaise lounge. Walk out of the beach in winter to see the marvelous sunset. People are looking for the green flash. The condo is well equipped with beach chairs, and bikes for rent on site. Enjoy also the boat trips to Useppa or Pine Island for lunch.

Perfect View --especially the sunrise. Great condo. We appreciate your efforts. Wonderful weather. Wonderful week - No Crowds which permitted time to relax. And then relax some more. Until.... The Mama Dolphin and her baby came in - multiple times - swimming and playing within two feet of us...... All of this makes us realize we have been wasting our time in Myrtle beach for many years.
