About Seafarer
Parcel series 002S22308A on the Okaloosa tax roll holds 29 condominium residences at 1700 East Scenic Highway 98, all dated 1989. Unit numbers run 101 through 114 and 201 through 215, a group of 14 and a group of 15, and all 29 parcels are drawn on a single outline of about 1.38 acres, which is one site measurement and not an acreage per home. Tested corner by corner against Census data, the property lies wholly within the City of Destin.
The roll's living-area field splits the building as plainly as the unit numbers do: 760 square feet for each of the 14 residences numbered 101 through 114, 1,180 square feet for 201 through 214, and 1,685 for 215, the one residence with no twin. That is the only height evidence the roll carries, two levels of homes, and it is not a story count. FEMA's national flood map places the entire outline in Zone VE with a base flood elevation of 15 feet.
On the state's business registry, two corporations bear the name Seafarer Condominium Association, Inc., one filed in April 1984 and one in July 1989, and each now shows as inactive after dissolutions in 1986 and 1990. A name search on October 17, 2026 found no active entity with that name. That leaves a buyer to learn in writing which entity operates the association today.
If the 1989 roll year matches the certificate date, the thirtieth anniversary fell in 2019. Florida's milestone inspection statute reaches a building of three habitable stories or more, a count the building code decides and this roll does not publish, so two levels of homes do not settle the question either way. Ask the City of Destin building department and the association for the completion certificate date and any inspection notice.
HOA & Fees
What is the HOA fee at Seafarer?
As of November 11, 2026, based on one listing on the MLS, the reported HOA fee at Seafarer is $1,508 a month. Fees vary with unit size and type, so the fee for a specific residence is the one its listing and the association state.
Based on one active MLS listing that reports an HOA fee. See the listings
The registry's two Seafarer Condominium Association entries, document numbers N02502 and N33347, each name an officer at 1700 Highway 98 East, but both are inactive. No record opened in this review shows who currently collects dues, carries insurance or holds reserves. Ask the closing agent for the association's present charter or reinstatement record, then read its budget, reserve study and insurance summary against it.

Building Answers
Seafarer FAQ
How much is the HOA fee at Seafarer?
As of November 11, 2026, based on one listing on the MLS, the reported HOA fee at Seafarer is $1,508 a month. Fees vary with unit size and type, so the fee for a specific residence is the one its listing and the association state.
How big are the homes at Seafarer in Destin?
The county roll lists 760 square feet of living area for each of the 14 residences numbered 101 through 114, 1,180 for 201 through 214, and 1,685 for unit 215. The assessor supplies these numbers; a given unit's floor plan is the place to confirm its size.
Who runs the Seafarer condominium association?
The state registry lists two corporations named Seafarer Condominium Association, Inc., chartered in 1984 and 1989, and both are inactive. A name search on October 17, 2026 found no active entity under that name, though the association may operate under a different one, so ask the closing agent for the current charter or reinstatement record.
Is Seafarer in a FEMA coastal high hazard zone?
The federal map places the whole 1.38-acre outline in Zone VE with a base flood elevation of 15 feet. Because the roll draws all 29 parcels on that one outline, the map speaks for the whole site only; a unit's own elevation certificate would carry its individual figures.
How many floors does Seafarer have?
No source opened here states a story count. Unit numbers and living areas suggest homes on two levels, 101 through 114 and 201 through 215, but the building-code story count comes from the City of Destin or the association.
