How the building is trading

7 units closed at Bungalos at Sandestin in the trailing 12 months at a median of $800,000, with a 96.3% median list-to-sale ratio. On the active side, 1 of 2 listings sits below original list price, and standing inventory works out to 3.4 months of supply at the current sales pace.

The usual levers are missing here, which makes the one that remains easy to see. Every cottage on this lane was finished in 2004 or 2005, fifty-five of them in the later year, so age separates almost nothing. Recorded living areas are nearly as flat, running from about 1,620 to 2,216 square feet with the middle near 1,676, which sits far closer to the floor of that range than to its ceiling: most of the lane is built to something close to one size. The ground underneath is where the variation actually lives. Lots run from about 3,164 to 8,399 square feet, a spread of more than two and a half times, with the middle near 5,312. Two cottages of the same vintage and nearly the same size can therefore stand on parcels that differ by double, and a figure quoted per square foot of living area will hide that completely, because living area is the part that barely moves. Compare on lot size and position rather than on floor area. Set two further items beside whatever figure comes out of that. The resort's golf, tennis and beach service are the resort company's to sell and are funded by neither this enclave's dues nor the master assessment, so a comparison that assumes them is pricing a purchase this address does not include. And flood mapping here is a parcel question rather than a community one: the lane reads Zone X apart from a single lot at its eastern end, the cottage at 2462 Bungalo Lane, clipped at its edge by a Zone AE area at a base flood elevation of 7 feet. Every other parcel on the lane was asked on its own outline and came back outside that area. Settle the mapping on the parcel before an insurance figure enters a comparison, because one address on this lane carries a question the other sixty-eight do not.

Year-over-year figures compare the 12 complete calendar months from September 2025 through August 2026 with the 12 before them. That window can differ from the trailing totals above, which run day-precise through September 22, 2026 rather than by whole calendar months.

The monthly charts cover the 24 complete calendar months from September 2024 through August 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 September 23, 2021 through September 22, 2026.

We publish each home's rental analysis on the signed-in side of the site, not on the open page. With a free account you will find, on the individual listings here that qualify, how rentals similar to that home perform: the average daily rate, occupancy, typical stay and booking window. The segment's daily rate, occupancy and tracked-rental count stay public on this page.

What decides whether a unit here can be rented

These are benchmarks for a segment of comparable rentals, not a finding about Bungalos at Sandestin. What a unit here may actually do is set by documents, and there are three of them. The recorded declaration sets any minimum lease term. The association's current rules can add stay-length minimums, rental caps, or owner-occupancy requirements the local code does not impose, and a board can change them after a purchase. The city or county that governs this address runs its own short-term-rental registration requirements over both. Request all three in their current form from the association and the local government during diligence, before purchasing with rental income in mind.

Rental rules on the MLS today: 2 of 2 active listings disclose“Short Term Rental - 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 September 23, 2021 through September 22, 2026. Rental benchmarks are market-segment aggregates from Key Data - never figures for a specific unit. Neighborhood figures are LiveBy area estimates built on the U.S. Census American Community Survey.

Why is there no list of individual sold units?

7 units closed at Bungalos at Sandestin in the trailing 12 months, from $690,000 to $850,000. 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.
