Great location

Steps from the sand. Nice pool, responsive manager. Would suggest management consider adding the following missing unexpected items: blow dryer (had to purchase one), non see through curtains in the kids’ room, a blender (this was a real disappointment), colander, and a slotted spoon. Otherwise we had what we needed.

In the original listing, the sofa was a sofa sleeper. We went in expecting our oldest daughter to be able to sleep on that. She cannot bed share with her two little sisters. I was very disappointed when I went to pull out her sleeper bed and it was a very hard couch. She had to spend the week sleeping on a couch that isn’t comfortable at all. I don’t see how this place sleeps 6. 2 people cannot sleep on the top bunk. It felt very shaky and full size beds aren’t made for two adults or even two bigger kids. But we made it work the best we could.

Amazing stay

This was a wonderful place to stay. The location was perfect. The only complaint I would mention is that the walls are thin. You can hear your neighbors really well. Luckily everything did quiet down by 11 every evening. I would highly recommend this condo.

Exactly what we needed

We had a chance to go and watch my daughter's team for the college beach volleyball tournament being held outside The Hangout. This place popped up with a great price, perfect fit for sleeping and within walking distance to the courts. We were pleasantly surprised, given the age of the property, at how quaint and comfortable it is. The location is perfect for walking to shops, restaurants and of course, the beach. We would definitely book this place again. Also, it was super clean!

A great location for beach access and quiet, but close to several restaurants and shops.

Ocean Reef 601 was easy to find and the parking spot and view directly overlooks the access to the beach. The beach access is literally a 1 minute walk from the condo’s door! Pool and laundry access right outside the door. Location is just 2 blocks from the main drag which kept it quiet from rowdy tourists, but close enough to walk to several restaurants/shops. We would definitely recommend this location to friends.

Cute Beach Condo Escape

Had to evacuate NOLA from Hurricane Ida aftermath. They didn't price gouge, location was great and the condo had everything we could ever need. And they made it super cute and beachy, you can tell the owners put a lot of love into the place. Only downside were the thin walls. The condo above us was rented out twice in one week and was like Cirque du Soleil acrobatic troupes. Both families 8+ guests and no phone number to call and complain after 9pm. I wish whoever rents that unit out would ensure a limit on guests. Otherwise our condo was great. Would absolutely stay again.
