Palma Del Mar is a waterfront condo community on Isla del Sol in St. Petersburg, in Pinellas County's 33715 ZIP, on Boca Ciega Bay. Public sources describe a group of mid-rise buildings built between roughly 1979 and 1985, with units described from around 730 to 1,250 square feet, on the island at the confluence of Boca Ciega Bay, the Intracoastal, and Tampa Bay near the Gulf.
The appeal is amenity-rich waterfront island living: public sources describe heated outdoor pools and spas, a fitness center, fishing piers, a clubhouse with recreation rooms, and bike and kayak storage, with the Isla del Sol golf and country club nearby and the Gulf beaches minutes away, plus easy access to downtown St. Petersburg. Monthly fees are described in a range that reflects the amenities and building costs.
The defining read is the association and the island flood picture. As an early-1980s low-lying island condo, the monthly fee, the reserves, the milestone-inspection and structural-integrity status under Florida's condo-safety reforms, whether the building qualifies for your financing, and the flood and windstorm picture drive value. The 2024 storms brought surge to St. Pete islands, so the elevation and insurance read is central. Confirm the fee, the reserves, the inspection status, and the flood quote for a unit.
For buyers who want a waterfront condo on Isla del Sol near golf and the Gulf beaches, Palma Del Mar is one of the options. The work is reading the association financials, the reserves, and the flood and insurance picture honestly before you buy.
