About Islander Beach Resort
The Florida parcel roll files Islander Beach Resort as two separate condominium series at 790 Santa Rosa Boulevard. The older series, recorded as Islander Beach Resort & Condo, has 42 homes with a 1980 year built. The newer series, recorded as Islander Beach Resort Ph II, has 72 homes with a 1999 year built. Each series also has a header parcel with no assessment record, and neither header is counted as a home. Because the two years sit 19 years apart, this page publishes no single year built for the resort.
Unit numbers show how each phase is laid out. In the older phase they run from 201 to 707, seven homes on each of six levels, and the roll's living areas fall into seven sizes between 340 and 1,070 square feet, six homes of each size. In the newer phase they run from 2001 to 7012, twelve homes on each of six levels, in three sizes: 1,101 square feet for 42 homes, 1,356 for 12 and 1,503 for 18. Leading digits that run from 2 through 7 point to residential levels two through seven, but that is a pattern in the numbering and not a measured floor count, so no floor figure is published.
Do not confuse this property with the Islander condominiums at 502 Gulf Shore Drive in Destin, recorded as Islander Phase I and Islander Ph II with 1981 and 1984 year-built entries; those homes are not counted here, and a name-only search of the roll returns all four series. The Fort Walton Beach in the mailing address is a postal city, not a municipal boundary. Checked against the Census Bureau's 2026 place boundaries, the resort's coordinates fall outside every city, so the property is unincorporated Okaloosa County.
The structural inspection statute, section 553.899, applies to condominium buildings three habitable stories or taller and counts 30 years from the certificate the building official issued when each building was approved for use. If the roll's years match those certificate dates, which this page has not confirmed, the 1980 phase faced a first deadline before the end of 2024 and the 1999 phase reaches its own at the end of 2029, unless the local enforcement agency chose the 25-year option the statute allows. Associations keep those reports as official records under section 718.111, so ask for the one that covers the building you are considering.
HOA & Fees
What is the HOA fee at Islander Beach Resort?
As of November 11, 2026, the 6 Islander Beach Resort condos for sale that report a fee on the MLS list HOA fees from $1,142 to $1,188 a month, with a median of $1,186 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.

Two recorded names and two parcel series point to separate condominium filings, and the Florida corporate registry could not be read when this page was checked, so whether one association or two runs the resort is unconfirmed here. Before comparing homes, ask for the declaration and amendments, rules, meeting minutes, accounting records, inspection reports and latest structural integrity reserve study for the phase you are considering. Section 718.111 lists all of these among an association's official records.
Rental Policy
Short-term rentals: allowed. Confirm the current minimum stay and registration with the association.
Islander Beach Resort has a Fort Walton Beach mailing address, but the 2026 Census map shows no city at its location. So leasing here is shaped by state law, any Okaloosa County requirement and each phase's own declaration. Do not mix it up with the Islander in Destin. Those rules belong to a different property. Its own rental rules are unchecked. Read the leasing article in the declaration that covers the Islander Beach Resort unit you want.

Building Answers
Islander Beach Resort FAQ
How much is the HOA fee at Islander Beach Resort?
As of November 11, 2026, the 6 Islander Beach Resort condos for sale that report a fee on the MLS list HOA fees from $1,142 to $1,188 a month, with a median of $1,186 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 Islander Beach Resort have?
The state roll records 114: 42 in the 1980 phase and 72 in the 1999 phase. Each series also has one header parcel with no assessment record, and neither header is counted as a home.
What year was Islander Beach Resort built?
There is no single year. The roll dates one phase to 1980 and the other to 1999, and a roll year built is an assessor's entry, not the date on a building certificate. Unit numbers in the 200s to 700s point to the older phase and those from 2001 to 7012 to the newer one.
How large are the condos at Islander Beach Resort?
By the roll's living areas, the older phase has seven sizes from 340 to 1,070 square feet, six homes of each. The newer phase has 1,101 square feet for 42 homes, 1,356 for 12 and 1,503 for 18. These are assessor measurements, not marketed floor plans.
Is Islander Beach Resort the same as the Islander condominium in Destin?
No. The Destin Islander is at 502 Gulf Shore Drive and is recorded as two separate series dated 1981 and 1984. Islander Beach Resort is at 790 Santa Rosa Boulevard, so match by street address and not by name.
