How the building is trading
5 units closed at Grand Dunes in the trailing 12 months at a median of $2,300,000, with a 92.2% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 3 of 7 listings sit below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 16.8 months of supply at the current sales pace.
The two figures a buyer normally leans on are both missing here, and knowing that they are missing is most of the work. The county assesses these as condominium units, so its roll carries no year built and no living area for a single residence at either address: every one of the 181 parcels returns a year of zero, and floor area is simply not a field the roll fills for this class. That absence is why the building name ends up doing the comparing, and the name is the one thing on this property that is wrong. One name covers two condominiums. State records carry two separate charters, July 2003 and November 2004, and the roll carries two parcel-number series, 89 recorded residences at 219 Scenic Gulf Drive and 88 at 221. They are not two halves of one thing. Unit numbering reaches 1850 at 219 and 2350 at 221, and 221 carries nothing numbered in the thirteen hundreds, the ordinary way a building skips that label, so the second building stands taller than the first by several levels. Two separately chartered associations means two declarations, two budgets, two reserve studies and two inspection clocks, and a figure drawn from one tells a buyer nothing dependable about the other. Position is the second thing the name hides, and it is the one most likely to move a price. Only one parcel on this property reaches the water: the common area recorded to the association at 219, and inside the buildings' own longitude band no other owner's ground lies between it and the sand. The 221 parcels begin about 730 feet inland of that seaward edge, behind the 219 property. So a set of comparable sales assembled under this name mixes residences whose association owns beach frontage with residences whose association does not, and no field on any listing marks the difference. Sort by street number first, then compare. Read the flood mapping the same way, at the parcel rather than at the address. Every special flood hazard designation here sits on that one shoreline strip, which the federal map draws as Zone VE at base flood elevations of 11, 12 and 15 feet with Zone AE at 10 feet behind it. No residence parcel at either address carries any of it. That splits into two different questions rather than one: what a residence pays to insure, which its own elevation certificate settles, and what the association at 219 carries on ground it owns inside a coastal high hazard area, which belongs in its reserves and its insurance. Ask the second question of 219 specifically, because 221 does not have it.
Year-over-year figures compare the 12 complete calendar months from November 2025 through October 2026 with the 12 before them. That window can differ from the trailing totals above, which run day-precise through November 1, 2026 rather than by whole calendar months.

The monthly charts cover the 24 complete calendar months from November 2024 through October 2026, and a month with no closings is a zero bar rather than a gap. Their last 12 months are the window the year-over-year figures compare.
Based on information from ECAR for the period November 2, 2021 through November 1, 2026.

Short-term rentals are restricted here
The building guide for Grand Dunes reports short-term rental as not allowed there, so we publish no nightly-rental performance benchmarks for this building: segment figures would describe a market it does not take part in. That reporting covers short stays only, and says nothing either way about longer tenancy. The recorded declaration is what sets any minimum lease term, so read it, and confirm the association's current rental policy directly, before purchasing with rental income in mind.
Rental rules on the MLS today: 0 of 7 active listings disclose"Short Term Rental - Allowed"; 7 disclose it is not allowed. Always verify the association's current policy.

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 2, 2021 through November 1, 2026. Neighborhood figures are LiveBy area estimates built on the U.S. Census American Community Survey.
Why is there no list of individual sold units?
5 units closed at Grand Dunes in the trailing 12 months, from $1,850,000 to $3,250,000. 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.
