Surrounded by water on three sides, Ocean Reef Club in the northernmost part of the Florida Keys is a 2,500-acre tropical private club with its own 4,456-foot lighted runway. The club consists of property owners and social members. Accommodations available to social members and guests include luxury vacation rentals ranging from one-bedroom suites in the 144-room inn to multi-bedroom condominiums, villas and residences.
If you are not visiting as a guest of a member, contact the club’s membership department about a guest stay. Unsponsored guest stays are also available during the annual Vintage Weekend, held the first week in December and showcasing vintage automobiles, aircraft and yachts, as well as in conjunction with summer camps for children.
The self-contained community’s amenities ensure you would never need to leave the grounds while enjoying two 18-hole championship golf courses, tennis and lawn sports, jogging and cycling paths, cooking school, nature center, art league and cultural center, children’s programming, spa and salon, diverse dining and shopping options. But it would be hard to not take advantage of the convenience of a 175-slip marina to explore some of the best fishing, boating, diving and snorkeling just offshore surrounding the only living reef in the continental United States.
