Owners share a pool on the ocean side, a club room, and gazebos with grills. Parking is in a garage under the building, with assigned spaces, and the entrance is secured. Many units have their own laundry. A public beach ramp at Rockefeller Drive, where cars can drive onto the sand, is next door.

Fees, rules and rentals

The building has one condo association, with no master association on top. The monthly fee is about $1,220. It usually covers trash, cable TV, water, sewer, the building insurance and upkeep of the grounds. Fees change over time, so check the exact fee and what it covers on each listing.

Rentals have a six-month minimum, so short-term and seasonal rentals aren't allowed. Ask the association for the current pet rules before you buy.

Florida requires milestone inspections and structural integrity reserve studies for condo buildings three stories or taller. Ask for the latest reports, the budget and reserves (which pay for big shared projects like the roof), and any planned special assessments before you make an offer.
