About the host

Hosted by Kathy Bartshe

Host profile image
We have been visiting the Gulf Coast since 1985 and purchased a condo at Ocean Reef in 1998. We continue to vacation here. We love the small scale of Ocean Reef (45) units and the 200 foot white sand beach, the views and the weather.

Why they chose this property

We don't like high rises, elevators and not being right at the beach at the bottom of our steps!

What makes this property unique

We can walk to restaurants, festivals, Hang Out, Public Beach, stores, etc. This property is a 3 story townhouse, no one is above or below you!
