How the building is trading
Fewer than three units closed here in the trailing 12 months - too thin a sample to publish reliable statistics. Ask us for a hand-built sales review instead.
Crystal Dunes looks uniform on paper, with all 38 homes sharing a 1999 roll year and one outline, but its floor plans are lopsided. On the county roll, 20 homes measure 1,322 square feet, and the first and last unit on levels one through four add eight larger homes of 1,448 or 1,845 square feet. Levels five and six hold the other ten, from 1,632 to 2,481 square feet. Because the smallest plan outnumbers every other, a building-wide median says more about that plan than about the upper levels, so read closings by plan and level before reading the whole building. Flood does not split the homes either: one outline covers all 38, mostly Zone VE with a Zone X strip, so an elevation certificate does the sorting.
Based on information from ECAR for the period November 1, 2025 through November 1, 2026.

Performance varies with management, seasonality, and personal use. Verify rental eligibility and all figures independently.
The rental analysis is for signed-in readers
We publish each home's rental analysis on the signed-in side of the site, not on the open page. With a free account you will find, on the individual listings here that qualify, how rentals similar to that home perform: the average daily rate, occupancy, typical stay and booking window. The segment's daily rate, occupancy and tracked-rental count stay public on this page.

These are benchmarks for a segment of comparable rentals, not a finding about Crystal Dunes. What a unit here may actually do is set by documents, and there are three of them. The recorded declaration sets any minimum lease term. The association's current rules can add stay-length minimums, rental caps, or owner-occupancy requirements the local code does not impose, and a board can change them after a purchase. The city or county that governs this address runs its own short-term-rental registration requirements over both. Request all three in their current form from the association and the local government during diligence, before purchasing with rental income in mind.

Where do these numbers come from?
Sale and inventory statistics are computed from ECAR MLS data by Dream Destin Realty and refreshed on a 30-day cycle. Based on information from ECAR for the period November 1, 2025 through November 1, 2026. Rental benchmarks are market-segment aggregates from Key Data - never figures for a specific unit.
Why is there no list of individual sold units?
2 units closed at Crystal Dunes in the trailing 12 months. MLS rules do not allow individual sold listings to be displayed publicly, so this page shows building-level statistics only - ask us for the unit-by-unitsold report and we'll walk you through it.
How are thin samples handled?
Any figure computed from fewer than three sales is withheld rather than published - a one-sale "median" is just that sale's price. Counts always show; prices earn their way onto the page.
