Sunset Reef is a small Gulf-front condominium community on the Redington Shores barrier island in Pinellas County, at 17960 Gulf Boulevard south of Park Boulevard. It is built as two side-by-side 25-unit buildings, 50 homes in all, completed around 1989 to 1990, sitting directly on the white-sand Gulf beach on one side with the Intracoastal Waterway on the other (community and listing sources, 2026). The ZIP is 33708.
Homes run roughly two to five bedrooms across the floor plans, with wood-burning fireplaces, multiple balconies for Gulf and Intracoastal views, and assigned covered garage parking. Ownership is condominium ownership with a monthly maintenance fee, and there is no CDD. This is a single small beachfront condo market, so the floor, the water view, the unit condition, and an honest read of the monthly fee and reserves, not a headline price, decide the buy.
Listings indicate a minimum lease of around thirty days, so Sunset Reef is owner-occupied or longer-term-let beach condo ownership rather than a nightly or weekly vacation-rental building. The defining reality for any Florida beachfront condo today is the combination of the monthly fee, the reserves, the state milestone-inspection and structural-reserve-study rules, and the flood and insurance picture. Hurricanes Helene and Milton in the fall of 2024 brought record storm surge to the Redington Shores barrier island, so confirm the building inspection and reserve status and an honest insurance quote for the specific unit.
The pitch is direct Gulf-front beach living with sunset views, the beach on one side and the Intracoastal on the other, and shopping and dining within walking distance. The work is confirming the monthly fee and reserves, the milestone and structural-reserve-study status, the flood and insurance read, and the unit floor, view, and condition before you buy.
