Ocean Breeze West

Ocean Breeze West is a Gulf-front condominium building at 14623 Perdido Key Drive, in the middle of Perdido Key a short distance from Lost Key Golf Club and Perdido Key State Park. It is a small, eight-story building with about 47 units and more than 200 feet of beachfront.

Units are mainly two bedroom, two bath and three bedroom, two bath plans. Rental listings often show layouts of about 980 square feet, and units sleep from four to eight guests depending on size and bedding. Many condos have balconies that open from both the living room and the main bedroom, so the Gulf view carries through most of the unit.

Shared amenities include a Gulf-front swimming pool with a large sundeck, elevator access and a boardwalk to the beach with a rinse shower. Rental companies generally include one parking pass per unit, and the property is smoke-free.

Like the other buildings on the key, Ocean Breeze West is made up of individually owned condos that are rented through their owners and several rental companies. Decor, pet rules, parking and extras like beach chair service vary by unit, so read each listing carefully. It is a separate building from Ocean Breeze East, which sits farther east near Perdido Skye.

Perdido Key State Park is about a mile west, with beach boardwalks and picnic shelters, and Big Lagoon State Park is a short drive across the bridge. Lost Key Golf Club is close by, Johnson Beach and the Gulf Islands National Seashore are a little over two miles east, and the Flora-Bama is a few miles west. Ocean Breeze West suits families, couples and budget-minded groups who want a simple Gulf-front condo in a smaller building rather than a large resort tower.
