A condo off the beaten path
The outside of the property is beyond stunning. Expertly maintained landscaping, palm trees and beautiful flowers. The pool is on another level. I have never seen a larger pool for a condo complex! (I believe there are 21 total units) The pool could easily hold 75 people - and the week we spent there, we were the only users. The area of beach in front of the condo is very rocky - so plan on using that pool. You cannot walk the beach to town as the national marina is just north of the complex. I recommend using bicycles or planning on walking or grabbing a taxi. It’s about a 15 minute walk to town or about a 7 minute bike ride.
Unit 232 is a third floor unit. The stairs are spiral, which I could see as a drawback for some people (remember that everything you bring or buy has to go up the stairs!) We rented bicycles in town and there is a bike rack on the property.
The unit itself could use some upgrades - minor upgrades such as new shower heads, newer sheets and a new coffee maker. The A/C, fridge and stove all worked beautifully. There was a new TV in the living room as well.
The 2 full bathrooms are spacious and done in beautiful Mexican tiles.
I loved having the patio and watching the sunrises and moonrises over the water. There is a charcoal grill on the patio and we used it twice to grill the fish we caught.
Overall - I would stay at Caribbean Reef again.
