Your Daily Beach Therapy from Ocean's Reach
Lover’s Key is just a hop, skip and a jump — and a handful of beautifully scenic bridges — away from Ocean’s Reach. Thanks to our friends at “Coaste” for this great article!
To the uninitiated, it might seem out of place, the 4.9-mile stretch of prime, undeveloped Southwest Florida beachfront sandwiched between the last of the towering condos of Fort Myers Beach to the first of a parade of million-dollar homes that line the shores of Little Hickory Island. » Read more
On Sanibel, it will probably be one of these bicycles delivered from Billy’s Rentals directly to your condo. With more than 26 miles of shared use paths throughout the island, it’s the easiest way to move around. Explore, shop, dine and get a daily cardio workout by pedaling a two or three-wheeler. Baskets are included!
As bike riding is so popular among our guests, it’s highly recommended that you pre-order your wheels by calling or emailing Ocean’s Reach Guest Services. » Read more

Our friend Don is at it again! But who can blame him with such beautiful inspiration?
Don’s 12-year-old granddaughter, Claire, was his muse for this whimsical little poem:

Sanibel is a popular winter sanctuary for our “snowbird” guests and over 200 varieties of beautiful birds migrating from the north. Avian splendor emanates from the island skies.
Don Tremblay, our loyal winter guest of 25 years, says there are
many things about Ocean’s Reach and Sanibel that he loves. But one thing in particular that he enjoys
is listening to the sound of birds–the chirping and singing heard
throughout the day and throughout the island–even while playing his
favorite sport at his favorite course with his favorite Ocean’s Reach

And double the pleasure for our guest who discovered not one, but two giant treasures of the sea — the horse conch. This shell is also Florida’s official state shell!
Mollusks have the ability to secrete a carbonate of lime solution that forms a hard, protective shell around them. Native to the waters around Florida, the horse conch can grow to a length of 24 inches. The word “conch” » Read more
One of our talented housekeeping staff recently designed a lovely welcome for our incoming guests. A love sculpture! Formed from two hospitality towels, a pair of swans facing each other creates a beautiful heart shape.
We thought you’d like to take a peek at her unique design. It’s a look and a labor of love! » Read more
A Boston-style hero’s celebration was held to honor retiring Red Sox player, David Ortiz, at Fort Myers’ JetBlue Park in March. Ortiz made his mark in the sports world by helping in a huge way the Red Sox win 3 world series—2004, 2007 and 2013.
It was a sad day for baseball fans but for Ortiz, it was lots of grins and smiles as he became the proud recipient of several prestigious honors and prizes, » Read more
The mango blossoms are busting out all over keeping honey bees busy and
mango lovers happy! The vibrant blooms signal a summer feeding frenzy for
mango salsas, preserves and smoothies–or just “off the branch” fresh!
These beautiful trees provide great shade and some of the tastiest and most
popular fruit from the tropics. Andy, should know. It’s his tree!

Once again, longtime guest Don P. came to town with goodies for the gentlemen in our office.
Don loves Ocean’s Reach, and several years ago started to create custom shirts for his family’s annual stay here, with a different color featured each year.
He very graciously brings a few extras for the staff, which are always met with smiles and much appreciation!
