Marina Palms is a small townhome community along Marina Palms Drive in Port Richey, Pasco County, a few blocks from the mouth of the Cotee River and minutes from the Gulf (Port Richey community and subdivision guides, 2026). It is a managed community with a pool, a jacuzzi, and a clubhouse, marketed as an affordable entry point for first-time buyers and those looking to downsize.
The community is built largely in the mid-2000s, with townhome listings on Marina Palms Drive generally citing a 2006 build year (county and listing records, 2026). The townhomes are commonly three bedroom, two bathroom plans with attached garages and open floor plans, alongside some single-family homes; confirm the exact bedroom count, square footage, and build year for any specific unit.
Because this is a small managed community, the money is made or lost on the HOA and the unit, not on the address alone. The drivers are the monthly dues and what they cover, the reserve funding, any shared exterior or master-insurance responsibilities for the townhome buildings, and the specific unit floor plan, condition, and exposure, all of which have to be read from the current association documents and an insurance quote for the exact unit.
The location is a walk-to-water lifestyle a few blocks from the river with two marinas nearby and easy US 19 access to shopping and dining, plus quick reach to Hudson Beach, the Pasco Gulf coast, and waterfront restaurants. The work is the diligence: read the HOA budget and reserves, quote the insurance, and check the FEMA flood zone and surge history before you buy the location.
