About Bahia

Walton County's assessment roll carries 111 residential condominium parcels under this name, all of them at one street number, 9700 Grand Sandestin Boulevard. Those parcels hold 133 unit designators between them, because several residences are recorded as combined pairs rather than as single units, and the designators fall into six blocks: a 4002 to 4024 series at the bottom, then four blocks of roughly 27 running 4101 to 4429, and a shorter 4502 to 4525 series above them. The blocks evidence stacked levels rather than counting them, and no agency record we can reach states how many habitable stories stand here. The master association's own management roster describes this neighborhood as units 4101 through 4525, which stops one block short of what the roll returns, so an inventory and a roster will not agree until somebody reconciles the lowest series. One parcel here is not a residence at all. It is a non-residential unit designated PM, titled to the resort's corporate owner, so the company that runs the surrounding resort holds property inside the condominium and not merely around it.

HOA & Fees

Three bodies stand behind the paperwork at this address, and the first question is not what each charges but which residences each document actually reaches, because the master association's roster describes this community as units 4101 through 4525 while the county roll carries a 4002 series below that range. Bahia at Baytowne Wharf Condominium Association took its Florida not-for-profit charter in March 2005 and is administered from an office on Grand Boulevard. Its filed officer table runs to five seats, four of them ordinary offices and a fifth whose title marks it as a delegate of the resort's corporate owner rather than an officer of the association, which is worth understanding before reading the budget it approves. Above that association, every owner inside the resort pays the Sandestin Owners Association once a year, and that body publishes a closed account of the work: security services, sanitation, most common area roadways, drainage, landscape, the lakes, and the two pools it operates, named on its own site as The Audubon Pool across from Linkside Village and the Phil Hummel Aquatic Center at Baytowne Village Drive and Baytowne Avenue. Third is the resort's corporate owner, whose tennis, bicycle rentals, beach service and beach club are its own businesses, and the master association states outright that owner assessments do not revert to them.

Rental Policy

No page answers the rental question for a residence here, and three separate instruments do. The declaration on record governs what a unit may be used for. The resort applies its own arrival, registration and gate procedure to anyone staying as a guest. Walton County registers short-term rentals under a requirement it administers itself. Gather all three in writing, and settle the parking arrangement alongside them, because one parking unit at this address belongs to the resort company rather than to the association.

Building Answers

Bahia FAQ

What is the nearest water, and what is it actually called?

Choctawhatchee Bay, and at this address the bay is the nearer of the two names rather than only the grander one. Its mapped boundary stands about 520 feet west-southwest, while Horseshoe Bayou, which the federal register carries as a feature in its own right, sits about 690 feet southwest. No parcel recorded under this name meets either polygon. What fills that 520 feet is the part worth knowing: a club parcel titled to a neighboring condominium's association, then a short run of residential parcels, so the strip between these buildings and the shoreline answers to owners this association does not control.

How old is the building, and how many floors does it have?

We publish neither figure. The state cadastral file returns an empty year-built field for all 111 parcels here, as it does for every Walton County condominium unit parcel, while the same field is populated for detached houses in the same query, so the blank is a records limitation rather than a failed lookup. The association's 2005 charter dates a corporation, not a structure. Florida's milestone inspection statute starts its clock at the certificate of occupancy for a building of three habitable stories or more, which is exactly the pair of facts the roll withholds, so ask the association for the occupancy date and the current inspection status together.

Why do the unit counts here disagree?

Three counts circulate and each is right about something different. The roll returns 112 rows for residences, one of which is a combined pair listed twice, giving 111 distinct parcels. Those parcels carry 133 designators, because a combined residence holds two numbers. The master association's roster then describes the neighborhood as 4101 through 4525, a range that leaves out the 4002 series the roll carries. Anyone building an inventory should say which of the three they mean.
