Living in Costa Vista

The county header for COSTA VISTA TOWNHOMES, subdivision 30-2S-21-42520, cites Plat Book 5, page 83, counts 24 units and refers to a recorded declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions. The parcel layer matches: units 1 through 24 as individual townhouse parcels, each paired with a one twenty-fourth interest in the common elements, plus one common-area parcel of about 0.59 acre. All 24 unit addresses read 11 Driftwood Road, Miramar Beach 32550. One county record for the common area gives the plat reference as 5-38 rather than 5-83, a discrepancy to reconcile in any title search.

The state's 2026 tax roll gives each unit a 1985 year built, 1,653 square feet of living area and between 461 and 959 square feet of land, with a middle value of 756. Land that small cannot separate one unit from another; the open ground sits in the common-area parcel, which is recorded apart from the units.

Flood mapping treats the 24 units and the common area alike: sampled once inside each parcel, FEMA's national map and the county's layer both report Zone X, minimal hazard. Roughly 0.3 mile east, Costa Del Sol's parcels return coastal Zone VE, so a flood answer for one series does not carry to the other. Ordinance 2018-29, dated December 11, 2018, zones every Costa Vista parcel Residential Preservation. Each also sits inside the county's Scenic Gulf Drive Corridor map, outside any city and outside every adopted planning overlay area. Request a flood determination from the county floodplain manager and confirm the corridor rules before an exterior project.

Costa Vista's name, searched across Miramar Beach listings on August 20, 2026, returned one active and 16 sold homes; a single Destin record shares the name and falls outside that count. The search states no closing window, so it is a snapshot of that date and not what is available today.

Costa Vista FAQ

How much is the HOA fee at Costa Vista?

As of November 11, 2026, Costa Vista homes for sale that report a fee on the MLS list these HOA fees: townhomes, $367 a month (1 listing). Fees vary by home type and section. Some homes also belong to a sub-association for their section, and a listing's fee may cover only one association, so confirm every association a home belongs to and what each one charges.

How do I confirm a Costa Vista listing belongs to the county's 24-unit series?

Match the unit number, 1 through 24, to a parcel in subdivision 30-2S-21-42520 at 11 Driftwood Road. Each unit's legal text pairs it with a one twenty-fourth interest in the common elements as recorded at Official Records 262-1.

What does the county record say about the size and age of the Costa Vista units?

Each of the 24 units sits on 461 to 959 square feet of land, and the 2026 roll records the same 1985 year built and 1,653 square feet of living area for all of them. With every unit recorded alike, the roll cannot tell one apart from another, so confirm a given unit's size from its own records.

Why does the Costa Vista common-area record matter when comparing units?

The common-area parcel, about 0.59 acre, is recorded separately from the 24 units, and each unit carries a one twenty-fourth interest in the common elements. The county record does not say which rights come with that interest; the recorded declaration does, and one county record spells its plat reference 5-38 rather than 5-83.

Which flood category do the maps show at Costa Vista?

Neither source separates the units at 11 Driftwood Road from one another or from the common area: FEMA's national layer and the county's layer each return Zone X, minimal flood hazard, at one interior point per parcel. Because one sampled point is not a survey, a determination from the county floodplain manager is how to settle a particular unit.

Does the August 2026 Costa Vista count include Destin?

No. The August 20, 2026 name search was limited to Miramar Beach and showed one active and 16 sold homes; the name also matches one Destin record, which is left out. The figures belong to that day alone, and a repeat search may return different counts.
