This condo places you within a 10-minute stroll of popular attractions such as Panama City Beaches and Shipwreck Island Waterpark. The condo includes a kitchen, a balcony, and a dining area.
Sterling Reef 202 offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and tons of common space for you and your pals to hang out, watch TV, play board games, and eat meals together. This condo features new renovations, modern touches, and pristine amenities that are a touch above the rest. Forget drab and boring hotel rooms with outdated appliances and items falling apart at the seams. This renovated vacation condo has the convenience of your house with the pristine amenities of a five-star hotel.
The two bedrooms and two bathrooms in this condo provide tons of floor space and common areas for you to spread out, relax, and enjoy your quiet time. The open floor plan ensures you can chill out in the living room, take a nap in your bedroom, prepare meals in the kitchen, have a meal together at the dining room table, and watch the sunset in your very own private outdoor space. It doesn't get any better than this!
Common Space
As soon as you enter the home, you will notice the laid-back vibes and nautical decor. The living room features a large comfortable couch, coffee table for storing your drinks or food, sofa-side table with lamps for providing reading light, and flatscreen TV for watching your favorite shows or movies before bed at night.
Plus, the living room directly connects to the dining room. This means that you can easily sit at the wooden dining room table with your guests and play a board game, challenge one another to a game of poker, or share a meal together as you gaze out of the large sliding glass doors at the beach.
Outdoor Area
The outdoor area is great for watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee or the sunset with a glass of wine. We love how the balcony is big enough for multiple people, providing the ideal vantage point for you to hangout and have a cocktail at the end of the day.
Modern Kitchen
To make a few snacks, appetizers, or strong cocktails for your friends, head to the kitchen. Even if you don't enjoy making five-course meals or spending hours in the kitchen cutting up vegetables and sauteing fish, we guarantee you are going to love this functional and simple layout.
The kitchen features new appliances, granite countertops, and tons of floor space that make it seamless for you to get around. You can store snacks in the white cabinets, use the new appliances (like a coffee pot for a fresh cuppa in the morning), and serve your guests on the granite countertops while they sit at the high-top bar stools. Easy!
Cozy Bedrooms
At the end of a long day of lounging on the beach, going surfing in the tough swell, or cycling along the waterfront, it can be time for an early night's sleep. Head to one of the bedrooms to curl up under the covers and doze off to the sound of the waves crashing in the distance the good thing about this condo is that neither bedroom is the 'bad' one — both bedrooms feature comfortable beds, plush linens, cozy pillows, and a relaxing ambiance that is conducive to eight hours of sleep!
The master suite features a king-sized bed that is big enough for one or two people to snuggle up and truly unwind after a long few weeks at work. You can use the large tub and shower to rinse the sand off your feet, turn on the personal TV to watch your favorite show, and forget all of your worries. Your guests can stay in the guest bedroom with a queen-sized bed, almost-full bathroom, and tons of floor space for unpacking their clothes.

45 minutes desert sun
The room was big enough but the shower curtain needs to be replaced and the shower spout in the bathhroom wouldnt allow for full flow. The main things was having to walk 3 flights or wait 30 to 45 minutes just to go down for anything. The parking deck really didnt allow for parking spaces were you could safely open your doors. 3 spaces so close together, you are either going to hit the side wall or the car beside you.

It was a great place in the beach, very clean, easy to access. A great location that was close to everything but not in the thick of the crowd. The place was small but just what we needed for a family vacation.

When we arrived on 10/02/2021, we were unpacking and I was putting my sons things away in the guest bedroom and found a half eaten cough drop on the bedside table. It was not ours. I cleaned it up and disinfected it myself. There were candy wrappers under the master bed. There were 2 blown light bulbs in the master bedroom and 1 blown bulb in the master bathroom. The microwave wouldn't work unless you stood at it and held it closed the whole time it was running. Then when you weren't using it at all, the table would just start turning on its own. We'd have to flip the breaker off to make sure it wouldn't cut on if we weren't in the room. There were dirty towels left in the washer. Tuesday, Oct 5th, we came back to the room to discover we had no power. After multiple phone calls, I decided to call the company we booked the room through to see if they could help and the lady tried. She sat on hold for over 25 mins to resolve it and come to find out the owners just mixed up their auto pay and paid the wrong bill so their power to the room was cut off. It was after hours so we were told it wouldn't be cut back on that day. So we had to pack an overnight bag, pack the refrigerator and freezer up and pack the car up to go stay in another room at a completely different location bc they had no rooms available where we were staying. We got almost there and was told the power was actually back on so we turned around and went back and had to unpack everything again . It literally seemed like everyday brought a new issue with that room. I understand things happen but not that many things during a one week visit.

Would definitely stay there again.
The property was exactly as advertised. The condo was clean, roomy and has an excellent view of the beach. Upon arrival, we found a load of wet towels in the washer that was sour. The washer and dryer seem old so it took forever to wash and dry the towels. The master bathroom only had two towels and and the second bathroom had 5 towels, with a total of 6 of us staying Sat-Thurs, luckily we brought our on towels. There’s only two elevators so the wait to go up or down was ridiculous and the parking garage is small and crowded and not easy to park a SUV in. Overall it was a good experience and I would recommend Unit 202.

Beautiful view
Let me start by saying it is a nice clean room . We enjoyed the beautiful view of the ocean with the pier. It could use updates. The main one being a new washer and dryer. We had 5 people staying here but it says it can sleep 7. You have to wash your own bath towels not a big deal to
us but you also have to wash them and put them in the dryer before your checkout time. The dryer takes FOREVER to dry because of that we started washing and drying them the evening before our checkout or we would not have got all the towels washed and in the dryer like it states on the refrigerator before our check out time. We also did not intend to spend a lot of time in the room but tropical storm claudette had other plans. The 2 living room chairs could use some cushions we had to use extra pillows to sit on to be comfortable when we watched tv waiting the rain out. We had a few issues with the condominium itself that didn’t have any fault with this room but even with a few bumps along the way we enjoyed our vacation.

The condo was a bit dirty which is weird because they charge a cleaning fee. They had a vacuum that smelled like a dog when I turned it on. The sofa sleeper sheets were filthy and stained. On the positive side there was a very nice view of the beach.

The only stars goes to the condo itself. It was clean and there were plenty of items (coolers, chairs, a cart, dishes, etc). My problems begin with late (if any) responses to my many questions in the six months prior to the stay. If someone is going to take $1800 of my money and use it tax-free for most of the year, I am at least entitled to answers to my questions. Upon arrival, I had to empty the dishwasher. The dishes had to be rewashed (soap and dirty water in them) and we had to buy soap. We also were left with only one trash bag and two rolls of bath tissue for the week. Perhaps I am used to staying at higher-end places, but the front desk simply ignored our request for more bags. Having only two elevators (on one end with our condo on the other) was not as bad a problem as the behavior of the beach personnel. They were rude, terse, and would not even give us time to collect our things 10 minutes prior to giving up the expensive umbrella (which was broken) and cushions. In addition, in a "purely random" fashion, we received the same broken umbrella three days in a row. A comment was made about "tips" and how they make their money. That is not our problem, and I resent being treated as a commodity. It was a low-class statement. We paid for a condo. We received a condo. I have no issue with the owner, but I would find a better management company and a better service.

Absolutely beautiful!
Our stay was the first part of April 2018. The condo was absolutely beautiful. Close access to everything. The view is breathtaking. There were 5 people that stayed very comfortably here. Everything was up to par, everything in working order. The nights on the balcony watching the sunset, watching the sunrise over the ocean... perfect. We will definitely be staying there again.
