About Sun King Towers

Forty-four homes make up Sun King Towers Phase I on the state's property roll, each a separate parcel coded as a condominium unit and each dated 1982. Twenty-two sit at 195 Durango Road and twenty-two at 197. All 44 share a single drawn outline of 2.09 acres, so that acreage belongs to the site and cannot be divided by home, and the series holds no office, header or common-ground parcel.

Unit numbers begin with a level digit. The A through D homes run from level two to level six, and an E position exists only on levels two and three, which is how each address reaches 22. The roll lists six living-area sizes, from 852 to 1,428 square feet, and the same letter changes size by level: the C and D homes are listed at 870 and 852 square feet on levels two and three but at 1,428 and 1,247 from level four up. That is a numbering pattern in the roll, not a story count, and no source loaded for this page says how many floors the buildings have.

Destin's planning layers place the outline inside the city limits and entirely within High Density Residential zoning. FEMA's flood map crosses it with two Zone AE bands, a base flood elevation of 8 feet under about 57 percent of the ground and 9 feet under the other 43 percent, which means no single figure describes the whole site.

Dated 1982, the property would have passed 30 years in 2012 if first cleared for use that year, well ahead of the July 2022 line in the state's structural inspection law. That law set a first inspection before December 31, 2024 for older condominiums of three habitable stories or more. Whether the structures reach three habitable stories, the height at which that law applies, is not stated in any source loaded for this page. The filed report, and any repair schedule it produced, is the first document worth requesting.

HOA & Fees

What is the HOA fee at Sun King Towers?

As of November 11, 2026, based on one listing on the MLS, the reported HOA fee at Sun King Towers is $950 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 state registry lists Sun King Towers and Yacht Club Condominium Owners Association, Inc., a nonprofit filed August 7, 1984 and active, with its articles amended and restated in October 2010. Its filed address is 197 Durango Road, while mail and the registered agent go to a management company's office on Gulf Shore Drive. Nothing loaded for this page explains what the Yacht Club in that name covers, so ask whether any dock, slip or marina right exists and which budget line carries it. Request the adopted budget, reserve study, insurance summary and recent minutes for the home you are considering.

Rental Policy

Short-term rentals: allowed. Confirm the current minimum stay and registration with the association.

Both Sun King Towers street numbers on Durango Road fall in Destin's High Density Residential district. Its district fact sheet permits seasonal stays. That includes short-term use of multi-unit dwellings. It warns it is an excerpt. Zoning decisions should not rest on it. The city's separate rental FAQ lists districts where short stays are generally allowed, and High Density Residential is not named. Ask the planning office which reading applies. Minimum stays and approval steps live in the condo documents, not yet checked. Ask the association for those documents.

Building Answers

Sun King Towers FAQ

How much is the HOA fee at Sun King Towers?

As of November 11, 2026, based on one listing on the MLS, the reported HOA fee at Sun King Towers is $950 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 many homes does the roll count between 195 and 197 Durango Road?

There are 44, counted by parcel number on the state's roll: 22 at 195 Durango Road and 22 at 197, each its own parcel and each dated 1982. Counting by parcel number avoids the shortened legal names the roll sometimes carries.

How does living area change by level and letter at Sun King Towers?

The roll lists the A homes at 1,035 square feet and the B homes at 1,356 on every level. The C and D homes read 870 and 852 on levels two and three and 1,428 and 1,247 on levels four through six. The E homes, found on levels two and three only, are listed at 870.

What does FEMA's map say about Sun King Towers?

FEMA's map runs two Zone AE bands across the outline, with a base flood elevation of 8 feet under about 57 percent of the ground and 9 feet under about 43 percent. The zone describes land, not the lowest floor of a building, which is why an elevation certificate and the association's flood insurance summary are worth asking for.

Can I rent a Sun King Towers condo for short stays?

The city's fact sheet for High Density Residential, the district holding the site, lists short-term residential use of multi-family dwellings among its permitted uses. The city's separate rental FAQ does not name that district among areas where short stays are generally allowed, so confirm with the city. What the declaration says about leasing was not established here; request that section and any minimum-stay or approval rule before planning around it.

Is Sun King Offices part of Sun King Towers?

Nothing in the roll links them. Sun King Offices is a separate 1981 commercial building at 38 West Highway 98, listed with a Fort Walton Beach address about seven miles west of Durango Road, and it sits in its own parcel series.
