Question

Is there a dress code at the Ocean Reef Club?

Answer

Although for our wedding we ask you to dress in Summer Formal, Ocean Reef club does have a dress code of their own described as “club casual.” Collared shirts are required for gentlemen in all restaurants except the Raw Bar and Burgee Bar. Equally appropriate dress is required for women. No ripped, holed, or frayed shorts/pants are allowed anywhere within the club. Midriffs must be covered and sleeveless shirts, if worn by gentlemen, must be hemmed. Thank you for respecting The Club guidelines! http://www.oceanreef.com/dresscodecard

Answer

The Ocean Reef Club is a vacation oasis with a little something for everyone! Here are a few ways to enjoy the day! 7-11 A.M. The lobby at the hotel has a complimentary La Colombe coffee station. Water bottles are complimentary as well and are always available at the check in desk. Feel like a little breakfast?

For something more casual, head over to Reef Treats in the Fishing Village for specialty coffees, breakfast sandwiches, yogurt parfaits and more. Take an exercise walk around the reef! Walk through the docks at the ORC Marina, down Ocean Reef Drive. If you want to check out “downtown,” walk down Marina Drive which will bring you to the Fishing Village! Check out the Signature Store if you want to bring home a momento with you. Stores include Vineyard Vines, J. McLaughlin, Lilly Pulitzer and more. Beach time! The hotel you are staying at is right on Buccaneer Beach, which is the place to be during the day. There are plenty of beach activities, including kayaking, paddle boarding, wind surfing, and more. Just ask the beach desk and they will set you up. Lunch options include the Palm Court (if you are dressed and want a sit down lunch) or if you want to stay pool side, there is the Grill. The Raw Bar in the Fishing Village has the best fresh seafood around! For those more activity based, there is a gym, bicycle rental, tennis, pickleball, a golf driving range and 2 golf courses.
