We stayed in two side by side units. This unit was clean on the floors but the furniture was not clean. It’s disappointing to see how people who rent them just don’t respect them. We had to cover the chairs and couch with towels to sit on them because they were so soiled. There was a sour smell in the master bedroom but not the bathroom so I don’t know where it was coming from. The management company was wonderful though and the actual property was great!

This was our 4th year in a row staying at Colony Reef and the 2nd year staying in this unit. Perfect place for kids and they love it here. We love the location of this unit and the beautiful decor, but I was very shocked in the state of the floors. I could tell the unit had been cleaned and smelled wonderful, but the floors really needed a deep cleaning. Our feet were black the first day. For how the prices have been rising every year, the guests should really deserve a spotless condo. My friend’s condo also had dirty floors. Previous years we have not had this issue. Besides the floors and black feet we had a wonderful stay!

We’ve stayed at Colony Reef for 30+ years. Watch our kids and grands play in the courtyard. That’s what they looked forward to but what’s going on with the grass? Lawn has always been beautiful. Loved the location and decor in our unit, plus bed in master was comfy but the floor needed a good cleaning. We’re still disappointed that the pool is still closing early but that hasn’t stop us. Will be back!

My family includes a 21 month son and this was the perfect condo for us to stay in April 2024. I loved that the patio space went right out to the grass and my son adored walking around and saying hi to everyone. The condo itself was decorated beautifully, without too many knick-knacks around that I needed to hide away from my son's hands! The pools were lovely, the grounds were beautifully maintained, and everyone we encountered from guests to office staff were friendly and helpful. I never had a problem finding parking and the condo isn't far from Publix (groceries) and other eating establishments. I highly recommend Colony Reef Club and this condo in particular!

This was our first time staying in this unit. We have been coming to Colony Reef for over 25 years. Unit 2111 is on the ground floor which works great for us as grandparents now. We easily stored the beach toys and chairs on the porch. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was stocked except they need to get another set of silverware. Not enough if having a full dinner with kids and grandkids. Clean and cheery! We will book again!

We have stayed at Colony Reef for the past 3 years now and this was my favorite condo so far! The unit was gorgeous, clean, and well maintained. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. The food trucks this year was a nice touch and the kids enjoyed Kona Ice after a hot day at the beach. The playground also had a wonderful upgrade this year and the kids loved it. Colony Reef is the perfect family friendly beach getaway.

Reviewer Comments:
Items that disappointed us and needed attention in our opinion:- No hot pads in the kitchen for use with the oven- Zero liquid dishwashing liquid provided -- not even a small starter set- Only1 dish washing towel provided- Only like 5 teaspoons and they were "beat" up -- hurt to use them. For a condo that has 3 bedrooms this isn't enough spoons- NO serving bowls -- we found one large plastic bowl and one glass mixing bowl. So frustrating.- One of the patio chairs was broken and wouldn't swivel without dragging on the ground and doing more damage- One of the screen doors wasn't functional- The "rugs" in all the rooms were filthy. When walking with stocking feet your socks got black.- Not one roll of paper towels was provided.- Living Room chairs were worn and uncomfortable- Zero spices - salt/pepper and foil/clear wrapAppreciated:- Mattresses were comfortable in the two big bedrooms (didn't use the 3rd bedroom)- Ample bathroom towels provided- Ample cooking pots/pans and cooking utensils- Lots of glasses- Ease of checking in/checking outShowers/bathroom fixtures- Colony Reef resort was quiet with a beautiful pool and beach. We enjoyed walks on the beach and the pickleball courts. The indoor pool was nice too even though we did not use it. We were very happy with the beautiful weatherOverall for the price we paid for the one month we stayed in this condo we were very disappointed. Perhaps there was "fine" print in the contact to not expect any condiments/paper products -- but in our 10 year experience of renting condo's we've always been given a few items to get you through the first few days.

While this property is a great location note a few things before booking!
1. The condo is much smaller than the pictures show.
2. The couch is stained and the unit itself is a lot less fresh looking than the pictures show.
3. The entire property is completely non smoking both in and outside
4. We arrived and the first bathroom was not cleaned , they said they were sending cleaners but they never came. We ended up cleaning it ourselves. They did refund the cleaning fee which was the right thing to do.
Overall it was fine, again amazing location right on the beach with a pool view NOT an ocean view. It is totally fine and I would stay again but manage your expectations as the pictures make it look a lot brighter/cleaner and bigger than it actually is.

We enjoyed our stay, but was a little disappointed in the condo's condition. It is considered Gold, but not sure why. Living room sofa is comfortable but old and stained. Microwave door was cracked. Sliding door handle broke off while we were there. Front storm door needed maintenance. Shower door very hard to close and open. Called office on Sunday, but no one came to fix anything while we were there. Wouldn't recommend because of the cost of this condo. Best thing was the big courtyard for grandkids to play.

Overall this property was excellent. The location was perfect especially for families with younger kids.
However, the property could have been cleaned better before arrival. Bathrooms were still a little dirty and floors weren’t cleaned.

I have staying at several other units at CRC and all of them were very nice! However, this unit is absolutely the most beautiful and comfortable one by far! Will make sure this is the unit we choose, if available, from now on. Much thought and effort was put into the decor, kitchen supplies, and beds, etc. New fans were installed during my stay in the two main bedrooms, very nice! Thank you to the owners for making me and my family's week at your unit just amazing!!

This was a great vacation. The property and condo look just like the pictures. My kids enjoyed going from the pool to the ocean all day and playing in the courtyard in the evenings with the other kids. The property management company were easy to communicate with. The other guests were kind. The location of the property was great. We ate at local restaurants, went to the alligator farm and rode the trolley through downtown St. Augustine. I would definitely return and rent the same condo. Just a note that beach chairs and beach towels are not provided by the condo. The condo had all the basics for cooking and even had a Keurig. The beds were comfortable and our kids were comfortable in the third bedroom. This was a great vacation. One of the only times I was not stressed out by all the rules that go with renting. Thank you.

We had a great time. The property worked out well for us. All of the other guests were nice. It was a nice set up for a family vacation.
I would say there were only a couple of issues. Dead lizard in the cushion of the chair. The screen was falling off so I think the lizard made it inside. Some of the furniture had screws falling out. Other than that, the location was great.
