We price a Casa Bonita Grande condo from its three recorded sales and the paperwork, and line up the estoppel, flood quote and board approval calendar before you write an offer.

McGreevy and Comisar are a Bonita Springs buyer’s team with our office on South Tamiami Trail, and this is our guide to buying a condominium at Casa Bonita Grande at Bonita Beach, the 54-unit Gulf-side building at 25900 Hickory Blvd on Little Hickory Island, built in 1976 according to Lee County’s property roll. The full building record sits on our Casa Bonita Grande condominium guide, inside Bonita Beach in Bonita Springs, and this page turns that record into a buying plan: what the units have recorded at, what a buyer pays beyond the price, what the association’s documents say, and what to ask for before you sign.
Casa Bonita Grande is one of four separately incorporated Casa Bonita associations on Hickory Blvd, so it is not Casa Bonita I, Casa Bonita II or Casa Bonita Royale. Each has its own declaration, board and budget, and a fee or a rule at one says nothing about another. Our Casa Bonita overview compares the group, and the address to match on every listing and every estoppel certificate is 25900 Hickory Blvd.
The market record is thin, and we say so first. The county’s qualified-sales file holds 109 sales for the building since 1975 but only 3 in the last 60 months: $1,010,000 on August 28, 2023, $945,000 on May 9, 2025 and $900,000 on April 16, 2026, each one lower than the one before. That is too few for a building median, so we list every sale and publish no median of them beyond the median of those 3 sales. Southwest Florida MLS figures were not available when we published, and each place that needs one says so.
To buy a condo in Casa Bonita Grande at Bonita Beach in 2026, price the unit from the three recorded sales of the last five years and its own plan and floor, read the association’s documents before you offer, get flood and wind quotes for the exact address, and allow at least 20 days for board approval.
The order matters because a 54-unit building sells only a few times a year. A buyer in a 300-unit building can price from dozens of recent sales, while a Casa Bonita Grande buyer prices from a handful and then leans on the paperwork: the declaration, the budget, the reserve and milestone records and the estoppel certificate. We build that file for your short list before you tour, and our Casa Bonita Grande condominium guide carries the full building record behind it.
These are the ten facts a Casa Bonita Grande condo buyer should know in October 2026, each drawn from the county’s recorded sales and parcel roll, the association’s recorded documents, FEMA and the statutes, and each explained in the section that covers it.

Honors and recognition:
For every Casa Bonita Grande unit on your short list we match it to its plan and floor, pull the three recorded sales of the last five years, read the 2021 declaration and the 2024 rules against the listing, and ask the seller for the budget, the reserve schedule, the milestone and structural reserve documents, the special-assessment history and the estoppel certificate. You see fewer surprises and offer with the facts in hand.
Recent Casa Bonita Grande track record, last 12 months: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). The Southwest Florida MLS pull that would show our own closings in the building has not been run, so this page never implies that we sold, listed or represented a sale at Casa Bonita Grande, and we will not estimate one. What we can state is the record itself: we tracked every one of the 109 qualified Casa Bonita Grande sales the county file holds since 1975, 34 of them dated 2009 or later when the record is complete, before writing any advice on this page.
The Casa Bonita Grande condo market for buyers in October 2026 is a small record. The county recorded 109 qualified sales since 1975 and only 3 in the last 60 months, $1,010,000 in August 2023, $945,000 in May 2025 and $900,000 in April 2026, so we list every sale and state no building median. These are county records.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).
The county roll keeps each unit’s last four sales with exact dates, and the state’s sale files add every recorded sale from 2009 on, so the record is complete from 2009 and partial before it. A count since 2009 is a complete count, and a count of all recorded history is a count of what the file holds, never a claim that it holds every sale ever made. We widened the window as far as the rule allows, and no window up to 60 months reached 10 qualified sales, so we follow the county presentation rule: list the sales and name no building median. The newest recorded sale for this building is dated April 16, 2026.
Every window below ends on the county index date, October 1, 2026. With one or two sales in a window, a median is only that sale or the mean of two, and we show the figures so the windows line up with every other Bonita Beach page.
| County window | Qualified sales | Low | High | Median of these sales | Median per heated sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last 12 months (since October 2025) | 1 | $900,000 | $900,000 | $900,000 (this 1 sale) | $873.79 |
| Last 24 months (since October 2024) | 2 | $900,000 | $945,000 | $922,500 (mean of $900,000 and $945,000) | $895.63 |
| Last 36 months (since October 2023) | 2 | $900,000 | $945,000 | $922,500 (mean of $900,000 and $945,000) | $895.63 |
| Last 60 months (since October 2021) | 3 | $900,000 | $1,010,000 | $945,000 (these 3 sales) | $917.48 |
| All recorded history, from November 1975 | 109 | not published | not published | not published | not published |
We state no median, low or high for all 109 sales, because a figure that mixes 1970s prices with today’s describes neither. The 109 is a count, and 34 of the 109 are dated 2009 or later.
The three sales below are every qualified sale in the county file since October 2021, newest first, with the building address only. All three are 1,030 square foot units, and the floors come from the unit numbers.
| Recorded date | Floor | Price | Heated sq ft | Price per heated sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| April 16, 2026 | 2 | $900,000 | 1,030 | $873.79 |
| May 9, 2025 | 2 | $945,000 | 1,030 | $917.48 |
| August 28, 2023 | 6 | $1,010,000 | 1,030 | $980.58 |
The median of these 3 sales is $945,000, and the median of their three per-square-foot figures is $917.48. Each sale is lower than the one before it: $1,010,000 to $945,000 is $65,000 less, or 6.4 percent, and $945,000 to $900,000 is $45,000 less, or 4.8 percent. Three sales do not make a trend line, and they are all one plan, but a buyer pricing a 1,030 square foot unit should start from $900,000 and not from $1,010,000.
The decade table below shows where the file’s 109 sales fall. The rows before 2009 are partial, so a thin decade means missing sales and not no sales.
| Decade of sale | Qualified sales in the file | Lowest | Highest |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 21 | $45,800 | $175,000 |
| 1980s | 12 | $100,500 | $182,000 |
| 1990s | 18 | $140,000 | $259,000 |
| 2000s | 25 | $275,000 | $900,000 |
| 2010s | 24 | $420,000 | $900,000 |
| 2020s (to April 16, 2026) | 9 | $547,500 | $1,100,000 |
| Total | 109 |
Of the 9 sales in the 2020s, 6 were recorded between September 2020 and June 2021 and 3 fall in the last 60 months. The $1,100,000 high in the 2020s is a 1,361 square foot unit recorded in June 2021, and the file holds no qualified sale of that plan since.
One second-floor, 1,030 square foot unit shows how far a single unit’s recorded price can move. It recorded $520,000 on October 15, 2014, $620,000 on April 29, 2021 and $945,000 on May 9, 2025. The last step is $325,000 more than the 2021 price, or 52.4 percent, over 1,471 days, about 4.03 years, and the full chain is $425,000 more than 2014, or 81.7 percent, over 3,859 days, about 10.6 years. This is a public-record sale and not one of ours.
We leave out the unit number and the owners. The takeaway for a buyer is the arithmetic: the same plan sold for $1,010,000 in 2023 and $900,000 in 2026, so the 2025 price is not a floor and the 2021 price is not a ceiling. A buyer should ask what was done to a unit since its last sale, because the record cannot separate the market from a renovation.
Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). That sentence covers every figure that comes from the Southwest Florida MLS: closed-sale counts and medians, days on market, sale-to-list ratio, active and pending listings, months of supply and list-price history. We are not estimating them from the county record, because the two sources measure different things, and with three recent sales an estimate would be false precision. The county file carries deed consideration, which is the amount stated in the recorded transfer, while the MLS carries the reported closing price, and the two can differ on a single sale.

Casa Bonita Grande offers 54 two-bedroom condominium units on four floor plans of 1,030, 1,161, 1,361 and 1,496 heated square feet in an eight-story concrete building, so the choice is plan, floor and condition. The county roll codes the view on every unit parcel as Gulf, and the plans below come from that roll.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser roll, 2026-09-27 export, and recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).
We infer eight floors from unit numbers that run from 101 to 807, with five units on the first floor and seven on each of floors two through eight, which sums to 54 (5 plus 7 times 7). The county roll lists 55 parcels because one is a common-area parcel and not a residence.
| Heated area (county roll) | Units | Where they are | Latest qualified sale on that plan in the file |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,030 sq ft | 33 | The middle units on floors 1 to 7 | $900,000 on April 16, 2026 ($873.79 per sq ft) |
| 1,161 sq ft | 5 | The middle units on floor 8 | $675,000 on May 25, 2021 ($581.40 per sq ft) |
| 1,361 sq ft | 14 | The end units on floors 1 to 7 | $1,100,000 on June 14, 2021 ($808.23 per sq ft) |
| 1,496 sq ft | 2 | The end units on floor 8 | $900,000 on April 1, 2016 ($601.60 per sq ft) |
| Total | 54 | 33 + 5 + 14 + 2 |
Only the 1,030 square foot plan has a qualified sale in the last 60 months. For the other three plans the newest recorded sale is from 2021 or earlier, so a buyer of a 1,161, 1,361 or 1,496 square foot unit has no recent sale of the same plan to lean on, and the 1,030 square foot figures are a pointer and not a price. The county’s heated area is the county’s number and not the declaration’s, because the declaration puts the lanais inside the unit boundary, so confirm a unit’s measured area in the disclosure package.
Casa Bonita Grande suits a buyer who wants a quiet, owner-oriented Gulf-side condominium with a private beach path, a pool and a fitness center that is open around the clock to residents age 16 and older, in a building of 54 units and not 300. It suits a buyer who is comfortable owning in a mapped coastal high-hazard zone, accepts a 30-pound pet limit and prefers a seasonal lease of 30 days or more to weekly rentals.
Owning a Casa Bonita Grande condo layers the quarterly association assessment, any special assessment, property tax, insurance and an estoppel certificate fee on top of the price. The association does not publish the assessment, so we give no dollar figure for it and show the documented rules and the route to the real number.
Data updated: October 2026 (Casa Bonita Grande declaration, bylaws and 2024 rules; Florida Statutes read 1 Oct 2026).
| Cost layer | Who pays | What is public | The document that answers it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular assessment | Each owner, an equal one-fifty-fourth share | Paid quarterly; dollar amount not published | The budget and the estoppel certificate |
| Special assessment | Each owner | None found on the association’s public pages | The estoppel, the budget and the minutes |
| Covered carport share | The 43 carport owners | One forty-third each (Section 8.1(C)) | The budget |
| Sale approval processing fee | The applicant | Up to the legal maximum, described as currently $150 per applicant (Section 14.6) | The manager’s written fee schedule |
| Estoppel certificate | Customarily the seller, per the contract | Capped by statute and adjusted for inflation | Florida Statutes section 718.116 and the DBPR fee table |
| Property tax | Each owner | The county’s just and assessed values | The Lee County Tax Collector bill |
| Master insurance | The association, through assessments | Not published | The insurance summary |
| Your own policy | The owner | Not applicable | Your agent’s quote for the exact unit |
| Deed tax | Customarily the seller in Lee County | $0.70 per $100 | Florida Statutes section 201.02 |
Section 10.1 of the declaration defines common expenses as the cost of operating, maintaining, repairing and replacing the common elements and association property, the cost of operating the association and amounts budgeted for reserves. It names water and sewer service to the units as a common expense, and a bulk pest control or communications contract the board signs is also a common expense. The association’s resources page names Summit Broadband as the provider of basic television and internet to each unit, and what that package costs per unit is in the budget.
Electric service is provided by Florida Power and Light, and the declaration does not make electricity a common expense, so we read it as an owner cost. The owner’s contents and interior coverage, the hurricane shutters and any interior work are the owner’s cost. Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). That covers the association fee and the fee-includes list as shown in Southwest Florida MLS listing remarks, which we will check when the MLS pull is available.
Bylaw 7.8 sets regular assessments as payable in quarterly installments, due on the first date of the designated months, with a ten-day grace period. Unless the board sets a different amount, the late fee is the greater of $25 or 5 percent of the installment, and interest runs at the maximum rate the law permits, which the bylaw describes as currently 18 percent a year. Five percent exceeds $25 once an installment is above $500 ($25 divided by 0.05), so on any installment above $500 the 5 percent figure is the fee.
An estoppel certificate is the association’s written statement of what a unit owes. Florida Statutes section 718.116(8) requires it within ten business days of a request, and the declaration (Section 10.11) separately provides for a certificate within ten business days. The fee is up to $299 for the certificate, up to $119 more for an expedited request and up to $179 more where the account is delinquent, the statute’s $250, $100 and $150 base amounts as adjusted for inflation and published by the Florida DBPR in its estoppel certificate fee table. The largest combined fee for a delinquent, expedited certificate is $299 + $119 + $179 = $597. Custom assigns the certificate to the seller, and the contract controls.
Check six things in the Casa Bonita Grande documents: the 2021 declaration and any amendment, the current budget and reserve schedule, every special assessment notice, the master insurance summary, the milestone and structural reserve documents and the contract’s milestone statement. Under Florida Statutes section 718.503 the seller supplies the package.
Data updated: October 2026 (Florida Statutes 718.503, 718.111 and 718.116, read 1 Oct 2026).
Florida gives condominium buyers a statutory right to the association’s governing documents, and the seller pays to produce them. Under section 718.503, the seller must give the buyer the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, the milestone inspection summary if one applies, the most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none has been completed, and the frequently asked questions document described in Florida Statutes section 718.504.
We read all 89 pages of the Second Amended and Restated Declaration, Articles and Bylaws, recorded December 13, 2021 as instrument 2021000407543, after converting the scanned pages to text, and we read the association’s 2024 Rules and Regulations. The 2021 declaration governs where the two conflict. Owners approved the restatement at a meeting held on September 29, 2021, according to the certificate recorded with the instrument.
| Topic | Declaration (2021) | Rules (2024) or association web page |
|---|---|---|
| Trailers | Bars trailers and boat trailers (Section 12.5) | The rules permit a small motorized watercraft on a trailer, owner in residence, one space |
| Pool hours | Set by rules, not the declaration | 9 AM to dusk (2024 rules); 8 AM to 9 PM (resources page, October 1, 2026) |
| Rental application fee | Legal maximum, described as currently $150 (Section 13.5(B)) | $250 (2024 rules); $100 plus a $100 background check (rentals page, October 1, 2026) |
| Management | Not named | Folio Association Management (association web pages); HomeRiver Group (2024 rules) |
A buyer should get the manager’s written answer on each line that matters to the purchase, because the documents cannot all be current at once.
Read the budget for the master insurance premium and the windstorm deductible, reserve contributions for the roof, the elevators, painting and paving, the water and sewer cost, the bulk communications contract, management fees and any loan repayment or special assessment installment. Ask for the reserve balance and the reserve schedule, and ask whether the owners have voted to waive any reserve, because the bylaw lets a majority present vote to fund less.
Casa Bonita Grande requires board approval of every sale, allows leases of 30 days to 12 months for the whole unit only, bars weekly rentals and lets owners keep one pet of 30 pounds or less. The rules are in Sections 12, 13 and 14 of the 2021 declaration and the association’s 2024 Rules and Regulations.
Every sale or gift of a unit needs board approval under Section 14 of the declaration, with at least 20 days’ written notice to the association before closing. The board acts within 20 days of receiving complete information or, at the latest, within 60 days of notice, and if it does not act in time the sale is deemed approved. The association issues a Certificate of Approval on approval. Disapproval requires a majority vote of the board after the board receives an opinion of counsel, and if the board disapproves without good cause and the owner makes a demand, the association must furnish an approved purchaser. A purchaser may not hold more than three units, and a transfer that was not approved is void under the declaration.
A cash buyer and a financed buyer both need the approval, and both need the estoppel certificate. The 20-day notice period is a floor and not a target, so a contract that sets a closing date inside 20 days of the notice is a contract that cannot close on time. We submit your approval packet as early as the contract allows. The approval is a screening right and not a right of first refusal on price, and we found no right of first refusal in the declaration text we read.
All leases must be in writing and for the entire unit. The minimum is one month or 30 continuous days, whichever is less, and the maximum is 12 months. No new lease can begin until 30 days after the first day of the last lease, subleasing is prohibited and occupancy is capped at six. The owner gives the association 15 days’ notice, and the board approves within 15 days or the lease is deemed approved. An owner may not advertise a stay of less than 30 days. A lockbox requires the board’s written permission, per the association’s rentals page.
Three association-side sources give three figures for a renter’s application, and we show each with its source. The association’s Realtors and Rentals page, read on October 1, 2026, states a $100 lease application fee payable to Folio and a $100 background check if one is not on file. The 2024 rules state a $250 processing fee, submitted at least 20 days before arrival. The declaration, Sections 13.5(B) and 14.6, refers to the legal maximum, described as currently $150. A $250 fee for a single applicant would be above the statutory figure as written, which is our reading of public documents and not a legal finding, and the manager’s current schedule controls.
The owner’s rights to use the common amenities transfer to the tenant for the term of the lease, which means an owner who rents the unit gives up the pool, beach path and fitness center for that term. Tenants and their guests may not keep pets. A rental of 30 days or more is outside Florida’s transient-rental licensing trigger, which is rentals of less than 30 days or one calendar month. Lee County’s tourist development tax can still apply to some short and mid-term rentals, so a landlord should confirm whether a given lease is taxable. Florida Statutes section 718.110(13) provides that an amendment limiting the number or frequency of rentals applies only to owners who consent and to owners who acquire title after it takes effect, and we did not trace the rental provisions amendment by amendment, so a buyer who wants to rent should ask counsel.
Owners may keep one pet of 30 pounds or less at maturity, leashed in the common areas (Sections 12.2 and 12.8 and item 18 of the 2024 rules). Guests may not bring pets, a tenant may not keep one, and pets are barred from the community room, the exercise room, the enclosed pool area and the second-floor deck. The limit is measured at maturity, so a puppy of a large breed is outside the rule even when it is small. Under federal fair-housing guidance an assistance animal is not a pet, and a request for one is handled as a reasonable accommodation, so raise it with the association early and in writing.
Casa Bonita Grande is in FEMA flood zone VE with a base flood elevation of 13 feet NAVD88, on Lee County FIRM panel 12071C0651G effective November 17, 2022, and in Lee County Evacuation Zone A. VE is FEMA’s coastal high-hazard zone. The association’s insurance premium and deductible are not published, so we give the route and not a quote.
Data updated: October 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer queried 30 Sep 2026; Florida OIR and Citizens data as cited).
We queried the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer at the building on September 30, 2026 and read the zone, base flood elevation and panel. The bare-earth ground elevation at the same point, from the federal 3D Elevation Program, is 7.2 feet NAVD88, so the 13 foot base flood elevation is 5.8 feet above ground (13 minus 7.2). The City of Bonita Springs treats its design flood elevation as the base flood elevation plus one foot, which is 14 feet NAVD88 here and 6.8 feet above the ground.
The association insures the building under Section 15 of the declaration, including the units but excluding floor, wall and ceiling coverings, fixtures, appliances, water heaters, cabinets and window treatments, and carries flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program up to the maximum permitted, plus liability, directors and officers and fidelity coverage. The declaration requires an independent appraisal every 36 months and says copies of the master policies are available on request (Section 15.5). We do not state the carrier, the premium, the deductible or the limits, because the association does not publish them.
The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation’s data show the statewide average premium per condominium association policy rising from $72,570 in the second quarter of 2022 to $147,381 in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 103 percent, and standing at $135,100 in the second quarter of 2026, which is 8.3 percent below the 2024 figure. Those are statewide averages across many building sizes and are not Casa Bonita Grande’s premium. Citizens Property Insurance’s 2026 rate and rule changes page lists approved changes for commercial residential condominium associations effective on or after July 1, 2026: an overall average increase of 7.7 percent for multiperil and 14.1 percent for wind-only.
Owners should carry an HO-6 policy with loss assessment coverage and contents coverage and, for a Gulf-side unit, a separate flood policy for contents and interior improvements. Lenders and the association may require proof. Get a quote for the exact address after reading the master policy summary, and before you finalize your budget. The state’s My Safe Florida Condo program offers eligible associations wind mitigation inspections and grants, and we did not find whether Casa Bonita Grande applied, so ask the manager.
Hurricane Ian’s storm surge at Bonita Beach reached 8 to 12 feet above ground per the National Hurricane Center, and a federal survey recorded an 11.3 foot high-water mark at the building next door. We found no public damage, repair or permit record specific to Casa Bonita Grande, and we state none.
Data updated: October 2026 (National Hurricane Center, U.S. Geological Survey, City of Bonita Springs and Lee County sources as cited).
The National Hurricane Center’s Ian report gives storm surge of 8 to 12 feet above ground at Bonita Beach, and the U.S. Geological Survey recorded a surveyed high-water mark of 11.3 feet NAVD88 inside a ground-floor unit at 25901 Hickory Blvd, the address next to Casa Bonita Grande. That mark is a neighboring building and not a measurement of this one. Both the 13 foot base flood elevation and the 11.3 foot mark are on the same NAVD88 datum, which is why they can be compared: Ian’s water at the neighboring building was 1.7 feet below the base flood elevation (13 minus 11.3).
The City of Bonita Springs defines substantial damage as damage whose repair cost equals or exceeds 50 percent of the structure’s pre-damage market value, and substantial improvement as improvements over a five-year period that equal or exceed 50 percent, and a building that crosses either line must be brought up to the design flood elevation. For a condominium the building is the structure for the calculation, so an owner’s kitchen renovation does not on its own trigger the rule, but a major association project and storm repairs can. The City publishes a substantial damage and substantial improvement notice and a post-storm permitting guide.
We did not pull a permit history for 25900 Hickory Blvd, and the association’s storm page, read October 1, 2026, states that the building is in Zone A, has no emergency generator and anchors both elevators on the eighth floor in a storm. Ask the seller for the repair history and any insurance claims from Ian, ask the manager for the permits the association pulled, and read the budget for the cost of any repairs. Unit work such as windows, doors, electrical and plumbing generally needs City permits and licensed contractors, and at Casa Bonita Grande it also needs board approval under Section 11.4 and must fit the May 1 to September 30 renovation window.
Casa Bonita Grande was completed in 1976 and has eight stories by our reading of the unit numbers, so under Florida Statutes section 553.899 its first milestone inspection was due by December 31, 2024 and a structural integrity reserve study by December 31, 2025. The association’s status on either is not published.
The county year built is 1976, and 1976 plus 30 is 2006. Section 553.899 says a building that reached 30 years before July 1, 2022 must have its initial milestone inspection before December 31, 2024, and the building has more than three habitable stories, which we infer from the unit numbering. We label that our inference from the year built and floors.
Phase 1 of a milestone inspection is a visual inspection by a licensed architect or engineer within 180 days of the local agency’s written notice, and Phase 2 happens only if substantial structural deterioration is found. Florida Statutes section 718.112(2)(g) requires a structural integrity reserve study at least every 10 years for buildings three habitable stories or taller, and associations existing on or before July 1, 2022 had to complete one by December 31, 2025, per House Bill 913 of 2025. The study sets reserve amounts for specified structural components, and the statute limits the owners’ ability to waive them.
Under section 718.503(2)(e), a contract entered into after December 31, 2024 for a unit whose association is required to complete a milestone inspection or reserve study and has not must carry a conspicuous statement saying so, and if the association has completed them the contract must say that too. We do not state whether Casa Bonita Grande completed either, what either found, or what the association has reserved or assessed, because those records are available to members and prospective purchasers on request and are not public.
A Casa Bonita Grande condo can be financed, and a lender will review the building as well as the unit. We have not confirmed any lender’s rule for this building and name no lender, so we list the condominium questions to answer first. A cash buyer faces the same documents without the lender’s review.
Lenders reviewing a condominium purchase look at the project: the association’s budget and reserves, any pending litigation or special assessment, the share of owners who are delinquent, the master insurance and the milestone and reserve status. At Casa Bonita Grande those answers sit in the budget, the estoppel certificate and the milestone and structural reserve documents, none of which is public, so we ask the seller for them before you apply. Your lender’s own questionnaire controls, and we will not tell you what it will ask.
A lender will require flood insurance on a mortgage on a unit in a special flood hazard area, and Zone VE is one, so get a flood quote for the exact address before you finalize your budget. For a condominium unit the building coverage sits with the association’s master policy and your policy covers contents and interior improvements, so the master policy summary shows which parts the association insures. Wind coverage follows the declaration and the master policy.
Property tax on a Casa Bonita Grande unit is billed by the county on the unit’s own value, so never carry a seller’s bill forward. At the $900,000 recorded price of April 2026, Florida’s deed tax is $6,300, which Lee County custom assigns to the seller, and an 80 percent loan on that price would carry $1,440 in intangible tax.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser recorded sales and Florida statutes, read 1 Oct 2026).
Property tax is separate from association assessments and is billed by the county. The Lee County Property Appraiser’s roll at leepa.org shows the assessed and taxable values for each unit, and those values change annually, while a new buyer’s taxable value resets differently from an owner’s. We publish no tax figure for any unit because we did not pull a millage for this address, and we will run one at your purchase price when you ask. Use the Lee County Tax Collector’s bill for the unit you are buying only as a starting point.
Florida taxes deeds at 70 cents per $100 of consideration under Florida Statutes section 201.02. In Lee County the seller customarily pays that tax and also the owner’s title insurance policy, and the contract controls both. A buyer’s lender will require its own lender’s policy at the buyer’s cost.
| Recorded price | Source | Deed tax at 70 cents per $100 |
|---|---|---|
| $1,010,000 | The 1,030 square foot unit, August 28, 2023 | $7,070 |
| $945,000 | The 1,030 square foot unit, May 9, 2025 | $6,615 |
| $900,000 | The 1,030 square foot unit, April 16, 2026 | $6,300 |
If you finance, the loan carries two state taxes. The documentary stamp tax on the mortgage note is 35 cents per $100, and the nonrecurring intangible tax is 2 mills, which is $0.002 per dollar of the mortgage, per the Florida Department of Revenue pages for documentary stamp tax and the nonrecurring intangible tax. As an illustration and not a quote, an 80 percent loan on $900,000 is $720,000, which carries $1,440 in intangible tax ($720,000 times 0.002). The Department’s page states how the stamp tax applies to a given note, so we leave that dollar figure to your Loan Estimate.

The worksheet leaves out items we cannot source for this building, including any capital contribution, which the estoppel certificate would state, and we found none in the declaration or bylaws pages we read.

Since August 17, 2024, an MLS participant working with a buyer must sign a written agreement before touring a home, in person or by live virtual tour, and it must state any compensation as an amount or rate that is objectively ascertainable. That makes the fee a conversation before the first tour.
Data updated: October 2026 (National Association of Realtors guidance, read 1 Oct 2026).
According to the National Association of Realtors, Written Buyer Agreements 101, the agreement must conspicuously disclose the amount or rate of any compensation and how it is determined, state that the agent may not receive compensation from any source that exceeds the amount agreed with you, and state that broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable. It should also say what services you receive and how long the agreement lasts.
We put the agreement and the fee in writing before we open the first Casa Bonita Grande door, and we explain who pays what: you can ask the seller in your offer to cover some or all of our fee, and any part the seller does not cover is yours. We walk you through the NAR settlement FAQs in plain terms before you sign anything. Start your Casa Bonita Grande buyer consultation or Call Marc at (239) 287-5873.
Casa Bonita Grande is served by Lee County School District schools assigned through the district’s residential choice proximity plan and not a single attendance boundary. Our reading of the 2024-2025 plan puts the building in elementary proximity zone Q and middle school proximity zone GG, an inference the district has not confirmed for this address.
Open the district’s school zones page, which links to the School Site Locator for Lee County, and enter 25900 Hickory Blvd. Run it for the current school year and again if the district approves a new enrollment plan. The district’s published enrollment plan explains how choice and proximity zones work, and a zone does not guarantee a seat at one school.
In the 2024-2025 plan, proximity zone Q lists Bonita Springs, Pinewoods, San Carlos, Spring Creek and Three Oaks elementary schools, with barrier island schools as optional, and zone GG lists Bonita Springs Middle and Three Oaks Middle, with the Sanibel School as an optional school. The district’s South Zone holds the high schools that serve this area, Bonita Springs High School offers the FGCU Collegiate and Cambridge programs per the plan, and high school assignment uses sub-zones, so use the locator. A zone letter in 2026 may map to a different set of schools than the plan we read.
Daily life at Casa Bonita Grande means walking out to a private beach path, a pool and a fitness center that is open all day to residents, with dining, groceries and the interstate on the mainland reached by Bonita Beach Road. Plan on about 25 to 27 miles to Southwest Florida International Airport by our map-routing estimate.
The association’s resources page describes a pool, a community room, a second-floor deck with a grill, shopping and valet carts and a fitness center open 24 hours to residents age 16 and older, and says cleaning crews run twice a week and maintenance staff are on the property three times a week. Two trash chutes sit beside the elevators and recycling bins are provided, with trash pickup on Monday and Thursday in peak season, November 15 to April 15, and Wednesday off-season. The building has two elevators and stairs at both ends. The community room can be reserved, and parties of more than 25 need board approval.
Lee County Parks and Recreation closed the parking at Bonita Beach Park (27954 Hickory Blvd) and Bonita Beach Access 10 (Little Hickory Island Park, 26082 Hickory Blvd) on September 8, 2026, and the lot at Access 1 (27890 Hickory Blvd) closes on November 1, 2026, for restoration work after Hurricane Ian. Pedestrian access continues, and the County lists the LeeTran ULTRA On Demand service as an alternative. Parking is $2 per hour at the paid sites, per the County pages we checked on October 1, 2026. Casa Bonita Grande owners have their own beach path and parking and are less exposed to those closures than visitors, so the closures matter more to a buyer who expects to host guests at the public beach.
Hickory Blvd leads south to Bonita Beach Road, which runs east to the mainland, US 41 and the I-75 interchange. The Big Hickory Pass bridge north of the strip was closed after Hurricane Ian per Lee County DOT, and we have not verified its current status, so we describe no through route to Fort Myers Beach. Our map-routing estimate is 16 to 19 miles to the Naples Pier, and we label both distance figures as estimates. Bonita Springs Utilities serves the City, Florida Power and Light supplies electricity, water and sewer service to the units is a common expense, and the mailing ZIP is 34134.
Choose Casa Bonita Grande at Bonita Beach if you want the newer of the two buildings, built 1976 against 1973, and a record of recent sales all above $900,000. Choose Casa Bonita I at Bonita Beach if you want more recent sales to compare, eight recorded sales in 60 months against three, and units larger than Grande’s smallest plan.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).
Casa Bonita I, at 26000 Hickory Blvd, is the nearest comparison for a Casa Bonita Grande buyer: the same Gulf side of Hickory Blvd, the same 54 units, the same VE 13 flood zone and the same Casa Bonita name, but a separate corporation with its own declaration, board and budget. We cover it on its own Casa Bonita I condominium guide and its own Casa Bonita I buyer’s guide, and the two buildings also sit beside Casa Bonita II on the same strip.

| Qualified sales in the county file | 109 (since 1975) | 127 (since 1973) |
The median of Casa Bonita Grande’s 3 sales is $120,500 above the median of Casa Bonita I’s 8 ($945,000 less $824,500, which is 14.6 percent of $824,500). Neither is a building median, because neither reaches 10 sales, and the mixes differ: Grande’s three are all the smallest plan, while Casa Bonita I’s eight include four below $800,000 and two above $1,000,000. A gap between two small-sample medians is a pointer and not a price.

Casa Bonita Grande has 3 qualified county sales in the last 60 months, while only four Bonita Beach condo associations reach 10 sales in a window, so most strip comparisons rest on a handful of deeds. The table shows each building’s own window, count and range, and a median only as the median of that building’s own sales.
Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales, index built 1 Oct 2026).

Each row uses its own window, so the medians are not a ranking: the four buildings with 10 or more sales in a window are Bonita Beach Club ($608.61 per heated square foot, 24 months), Seascape ($568.39, 60 months), Bay Harbor Club ($412.64, 24 months) and Bonita Beach and Tennis Club ($551.18, 12 months). Casa Bonita Grande’s three sales run from $873.79 to $980.58 per heated square foot, higher than any median in those four windows, and all three are one plan. Even-count medians are the mean of the middle pair: Sea Isles $600,000 and $620,000, Casa Bonita I $799,000 and $850,000, Casa Bonita II $703,000 and $796,000, The Egret $675,000 and $749,000, Windsong $620,000 and $680,000, and Ambassador $970,000 and $1,004,000.
Casa Bonita Grande’s strengths are its Gulf-side location, a small 54-unit building, a 30-day minimum rental that suits owners who rent for a season and public governing documents. Its drawbacks are a VE 13 flood zone, an older concrete building facing milestone and reserve costs, a 30-pound pet limit and conflicting fee and management information.
To see Casa Bonita Grande condos for sale, tell us your plan, floor and budget and we will watch the Southwest Florida MLS for the building and send each match with its recorded sales, flood data and documents to request. With 54 units, a listing is occasional, so a saved search matters.

A seasonal Casa Bonita Grande owner leaves a Gulf-side condominium empty for months, so plan the storm routine, a caretaker, the insurance and the association paperwork, because the building is in Evacuation Zone A, has no emergency generator and runs on a season the association itself defines as November 15 to April 15.
Ask the declaration and the manager whether shutters, a caretaker or a key holder are required, because hurricane shutters are the owner’s responsibility under Section 11.2(B), subject to board approval and a board-adopted model under Section 11.10. Ask which shutter model the board has adopted and whether the unit has them. Agree on a contact path with the manager so someone can reach you about a leak above or below your unit.
Florida title companies routinely close with remote online notarization or mail-away signing, and you should confirm wire instructions by phone, never from an email alone. Foreign buyers should plan ownership with a cross-border tax adviser, since a future sale will generally face FIRPTA withholding unless an IRS exemption or certificate applies. Allow for the board’s 20-day notice when you set a closing date that fits your travel.

These are the questions buyers ask us about Casa Bonita Grande condos for sale at Bonita Beach, answered from the county record, the association’s documents and the statutes. Where a fact is not published, the answer says so and names the document that settles it.
Casa Bonita Grande has 54 units per its declaration and the state condominium record. The county roll lists 55 parcels because one is a common-area parcel. Each unit holds a one-fifty-fourth share, 1.85 percent, and one of 54 votes.
The Lee County Property Appraiser shows 1976 as the year built. The declaration was first recorded August 1, 1975 and the association was filed with the state on February 9, 1977, which are different events from completion of the building.
Eight, by our inference. Unit numbers run from 101 to 807, with five units on the first floor and seven on each of floors two through eight, which sums to 54. Confirm the floor count in the disclosure package.
The county roll shows four heated sizes: 1,030 square feet on 33 units, 1,161 on 5, 1,361 on 14 and 1,496 on 2, all two-bedroom. Lanais are inside the unit boundary, so confirm a unit’s measured area.
The association does not publish its regular assessment, so we publish no dollar figure. Assessments are paid quarterly and every unit pays an equal one-fifty-fourth share. Request the budget and the estoppel certificate for a specific unit before you offer.
Per Section 10.1, common expenses include operation and repair of the common elements, association operations, reserves, water and sewer and any bulk pest control or communications contract. The resources page names Summit Broadband for basic television and internet. Electricity is not a common expense as written.
Yes. FEMA maps it in zone VE with a base flood elevation of 13 feet NAVD88 on panel 12071C0651G, effective November 17, 2022, and Lee County places it in Evacuation Zone A. A lender will require flood insurance on a financed purchase.
The association’s storm page says there is no emergency generator and that both elevators are anchored on the eighth floor in a storm. Plan for the elevators to be unavailable during and after a storm, which matters most for upper floors.
Yes, with board approval and for the whole unit only. The lease must be in writing, run at least 30 continuous days and no more than 12 months, and be limited to six occupants. Subleasing is not allowed (Section 13).
No, not as written. The declaration bars leases under 30 continuous days and advertising of shorter stays, so a buyer who needs weekly rental income should choose a different building.
Owners may keep one pet of 30 pounds or less at maturity, leashed in common areas. Pets are not allowed in rented units, the community room, exercise room, enclosed pool area or second-floor deck, and guests may not bring pets.
Yes to both. The resources page describes a pool with no lifeguard and no diving, and the building fronts the Gulf with a beach path private to owners and guests. Pool hours differ between the resources page and the 2024 rules.
Each unit has one assigned parking space and one assigned storage space. Forty-three spaces have covered carports and the other 11 are uncovered (54 minus 43). Confirm your unit’s space before you offer.
We found none published and we do not know whether one is planned. The board can levy special assessments for unusual or unbudgeted expenses with a notice stating the purpose. Ask for the last two years of assessments in the disclosure package.
The association’s status is not published. By our inference the statute required an initial milestone inspection by December 31, 2024 and a structural integrity reserve study by December 31, 2025. Request both under sections 718.111(12) and 718.503.
We found no age restriction in the declaration or on the association’s public pages, and the resources page sets a minimum age of 16 for the fitness center only. Confirm with the association if age matters to your purchase.
The association’s web pages name Folio Association Management, and the 2024 rules name a manager at HomeRiver Group with the same phone number. We cannot tell which is current, so ask on your estoppel request.
No. They are separate corporations with separate declarations: Casa Bonita I is at 26000 Hickory Blvd, Casa Bonita II at 25870 and Casa Bonita Grande at 25900. Casa Bonita Royale is a fourth association on the bay side.
By street number, Bonita Beach Access 10 at 26082 Hickory Blvd, whose parking closed September 8, 2026, though pedestrian access continues. Owners also have the association’s private beach path.
Lee County schools through the residential choice proximity plan. We infer elementary zone Q and middle school zone GG from the 2024-2025 plan, so confirm with the district’s School Site Locator at 25900 Hickory Blvd.
Yes. Section 14 requires board approval of every sale with 20 days’ written notice before closing. A buyer may own no more than three units, and the board must act within 60 days of notice or the sale is deemed approved.
The county file holds 109 qualified sales since 1975 and 3 in the last 60 months: $1,010,000 on August 28, 2023, $945,000 on May 9, 2025 and $900,000 on April 16, 2026. The median of these 3 sales is $945,000.
Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). We will not guess a count. Tell us the plan and floor you want, and we watch the Southwest Florida MLS and send each match with its recorded sales.
Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-01). That is the Southwest Florida MLS days-on-market figure. Structurally, the board has up to 60 days from notice to act on a sale, so plan a timeline from the contract date.
The three qualified sales of the last 60 months, all on the 1,030 square foot plan, ran from $873.79 to $980.58 per heated square foot, and the median of these 3 sales is $917.48. No other plan has a recent sale.
The three recorded sales step down: $1,010,000 in August 2023, $945,000 in May 2025 and $900,000 in April 2026. Three sales on one plan do not prove a trend, but price from the newest sale and not the 2023 high.
Up to $299, up to $119 more if expedited and up to $179 more if the account is delinquent, per the DBPR fee table for section 718.116(8). It is due within ten business days, and custom has the seller order it.
On a $900,000 purchase the seller customarily pays $6,300 in deed tax, and an 80 percent loan carries $1,440 in intangible tax plus the mortgage stamp tax, the lender’s title policy, recording, appraisal and prorations. Your Loan Estimate controls.
Yes, a lender can finance a condo here and will review the project: budget, reserves, special assessments, master insurance and milestone status. We have not confirmed any lender’s rule for this building, and the board’s approval clock runs alongside the loan.
A lender will require it on a mortgage in a special flood hazard area, and Zone VE is one. The association carries the building’s flood coverage and you buy contents and interior coverage, so get a quote for the exact address.
Under Section 15, the association insures the building including the units but excluding floor, wall and ceiling coverings, fixtures, appliances, water heaters, cabinets and window treatments. Carrier, premium and deductible are not published, so ask for the master policy summary.
With approval. Alterations need board approval under Section 11.4, exterior-visible work also needs an owner vote, and the 2024 rules limit renovation to May 1 through September 30. Units above the ground floor need soundproof flooring.
The declaration bars trailers and boat trailers (Section 12.5), while the 2024 rules permit a small motorized watercraft on a trailer for an owner in residence in one space. The declaration controls as written, so get the board’s answer in writing.
We found none in the declaration text we read. The board can disapprove a buyer after counsel’s opinion, which is a different mechanism. Ask the association’s attorney if the distinction matters to your purchase.
In Lee County the seller customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, and the contract controls. A financed buyer pays for the lender’s policy.
Since August 17, 2024 you sign a written buyer agreement before touring, and it states any compensation as an amount or rate. You can ask the seller to cover some or all of it, and any part the seller does not cover is yours.
A Bonita Beach condo specialist matters because the price is the smaller part of the decision: the declaration, the budget, the milestone records, the flood elevation, the insurance and a record this thin. McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, read the county’s sales and the association’s documents before we show you a unit.
We tracked every one of the 109 qualified Casa Bonita Grande condo sales in the county record, 34 of them since 2009, when the record is complete, and the 75 earlier ones in the partial record. Sellers weighing the other side of this market can read how we sell Casa Bonita Grande condos or request a free Casa Bonita Grande valuation. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

We could not verify Casa Bonita Grande’s dues, budget, reserves, special assessments, insurance terms, milestone and reserve study status or current manager, because no public document states them, and the Southwest Florida MLS was not pulled for this page. Each item below names the document that answers it.
