More about Jesse McGreevy, Marc Comisar and our team on the McGreevy and Comisar about page.

McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, value Barefoot Beach Club I condominiums from the Collier County deed record, sale by sale, and this page answers one question honestly: what is my Barefoot Beach Club I condo worth? Our Barefoot Beach Club I guide describes the 82 condominiums in three seven-level buildings at 253, 255 and 257 Barefoot Beach Boulevard, on the Gulf side of the boulevard inside the Barefoot Beach gate, in unincorporated Collier County, Florida, with a Bonita Springs mailing address.

This is Barefoot Beach Club I, one of the four condominiums that make up the Barefoot Beach Club. It is not The Club at Barefoot Beach, the private member club at 105 Shell Drive whose membership does not convey with a deed, and it is unrelated to the hotels of the same name on the Pinellas County beaches.

The county has recorded 8 qualified sales of Club I condominiums in the 60 months since October 2021, from $1,400,000 to $3,335,000, and none in the 12 months since October 2025. No window reaches 10 sales, so this page lists every sale, prints no median for them in its headline figures, and shows the three buildings, five floor plans and one home’s full deed chain behind the numbers. For the community-wide view, read the Barefoot Beach Club valuation page.

What Is My Barefoot Beach Club I Condo Worth in 2026?

A Barefoot Beach Club I condo is worth what the most similar condominiums in its own building have recorded for recently, adjusted for floor, plan, flood position and condition. County records show 8 qualified Club I sales in the last 60 months, from $1,400,000 to $3,335,000, and none since October 2025.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

What the county record shows, by window

We count back from October 1, 2026 and show four windows. The first window with 10 or more county-qualified sales would lead, and for Club I none of them gets there, so every sale is listed in the sales section below and no median is printed for any window.

Last 60 monthsOctober 20218$1,400,000$3,335,000$19,320,000none printed (under 10 sales)

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, sale file through August 24, 2026. Qualified means the county coded the sale as an arm’s-length sale usable for valuation, and all 8 sales in the five-year window are resales, none builder-direct. A median is printed only where a window holds 10 or more sales, and we never fold recorded but not qualified deeds into these figures.

What the Southwest Florida MLS shows

The Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 3, 2026, shows 15 Barefoot Beach Club I closings in the 60 months to that date, 10 of them in the last 36 months and 2 in the last 12. In the 36 months to October 3, 2026 the median sale price was $2,725,000, in a range of $1,200,000 to $3,850,000, with median days on market of 164 and a median sale-to-list ratio of 93.4% of the final list price. Both closings in the last 12 months were at $1,200,000. Four condominiums were listed for sale on October 3, 2026, from $1,645,000 to $2,500,000, and none was pending, which is 24 months of supply, an indicative figure on 2 closings in 12 months.

Key Takeaways

These are the facts a Barefoot Beach Club I condo owner in Bonita Springs, Florida should know about value in October 2026, each drawn from the Collier County deed and tax record, a federal, state or county agency, or Florida law. Data updated: October 2026.

  • 8 qualified sales in 60 months, none in the last 12. They ran from $1,400,000 to $3,335,000, four at 253, two at 255 and two at 257 Barefoot Beach Boulevard, so the page lists them and prints no headline median.
  • The county’s just value sat below the price in all 8 sales. The 2026 preliminary just value was 57.5 to 89.9 percent of the recorded price, so it starts a valuation and never ends one.
  • All three buildings are Gulf side, and all three are in a flood hazard area. FEMA’s layer shows Zone AE at 11 feet, with part of each footprint in VE 12 by our reading of the public map layers.
  • Collier custom shapes your net. The buyer customarily pays the owner’s title policy and the seller customarily pays deed stamps at $0.70 per $100, so a $1,875,000 sale carries $13,125.

Why Value Your Barefoot Beach Club I Condo With McGreevy and Comisar?

Value your Barefoot Beach Club I condo with McGreevy and Comisar because we read the deed record home by home, know the three buildings at 253, 255 and 257, and say plainly what the county record cannot show. We are Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, and we prepare every valuation personally.

What we have tracked first-hand here

We tracked every one of the 8 Barefoot Beach Club I sales in the county record for the last five years, and the 178 qualified sales it has recorded here since 1991, with each recording date, price, building, county base area and Official Records book and page. We tracked every one of the 82 Barefoot Beach Club I parcels on the county’s 2026 preliminary roll, and all 7 deeds the county did not count as qualified. A Barefoot Beach specialist works from that record before quoting a number.

Our own Barefoot Beach Club I closing record

McGreevy and Comisar closed no sale at Barefoot Beach Club I through the Southwest Florida MLS in the 60 months to October 3, 2026, on either the listing or the buying side. Our share of the 15 closings in that period is 0 of 15, so we have no prices or days on market of our own to show. We do not imply that we sold, listed or represented any sale on this page, and the condominium whose public record we walk through below is not one of ours.

How this page fits the trio

This is the valuation page of three written for Barefoot Beach Club I. Our seller page walks through the most recent recorded Club I sale and what a seller delivers under Florida law, and our buyer page covers what a buyer checks before an offer.

Get Your Free Barefoot Beach Club I Condo Valuation in 60 Seconds

Get a free Barefoot Beach Club I condo valuation by entering your address in the valuation form on this page, calling Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072, or booking a walk-through. We send a range built from recorded sales in your own building and plan, not a ZIP-wide estimate, and a full pricing file after the walk-through.

What we need from you

Your building’s street number (253, 255 or 257), your floor and plan size, any renovation with dates and permits, your windows, doors and roof, any elevation certificate you hold, and whether you have the association’s current budget and estoppel certificate. McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, prepare every valuation personally.

No obligation

A valuation is not a listing agreement. Many owners ask us for a value for estate planning, an insurance review, a refinance or a trust decision. For how we compare with other teams working this coast, see our guide to the best real estate agents in Barefoot Beach, which compares the agents and teams addressed in ZIP code 34134 on the public record.

Why Does an Online Estimate Miss Barefoot Beach Club I Condo Values?

An online estimate misses Barefoot Beach Club I condo values because the condominium mixes five floor plans, three buildings and three layers of association, while the public data a formula reads is thin: 8 qualified sales in five years, none in the last 12 months, and a county base area that is not living area.

Base area is not living area

The county’s base area for a Club I condominium is one of five sizes: 1,604, 1,726, 2,003, 2,226 or 2,408 square feet. It is the county’s roll measurement, not the living area on a listing. The 15 closings in the Southwest Florida MLS in the 60 months to October 3, 2026 carry MLS living areas of 1,604, 1,726, 2,003 and 2,334 square feet, as entered by the listing agents. Every price per square foot on this page is a price per county base square foot.

The county’s qualified flag leaves out whole years

The county recorded no qualified Club I sale in 2022 and none in 2024, yet it recorded 2 deeds over $100,000 in 2022 and 3 in 2024 that it did not code qualified. Over the last 60 months it recorded 7 such deeds, from $1,000,000 to $3,850,000, one of them in February 2026, after the last qualified sale in the file. The county file states no reason for any of them, so we list them separately and never average them into a median.

How Do We Value a Barefoot Beach Club I Condo?

We value a Barefoot Beach Club I condo by matching it to recorded sales in the same building and plan, matching floor, reading the county just value beside each price, and adjusting for condition, view and flood position at a walk-through. With only eight sales in five years, we show the range and the sales behind it, never one number.

Step one: match the building and the plan

The three buildings are 253 (34 homes, building I), 255 (24 homes, building II) and 257 (24 homes, building III), all on the Gulf side. Building I holds all five plans, while buildings II and III hold only the 1,726 and 2,003 square foot plans, so a sale at 255 is a direct comparable for a home at 257 and only an adjusted one for a 1,604 square foot home at 253.

Step two: match the floor and the stack

Floors 2 to 6 carry the homes, with a penthouse level above them. The stack decides the plan: in building I the end stacks are 2,003 square feet, the next stacks in are 1,726 and the two interior stacks are 1,604, building I’s penthouse level holds the four 2,226 and 2,408 square foot homes, and buildings II and III repeat the 1,726 and 2,003 plans on every level.

Step three: read the sale and the just value together

For each comparable we list the recorded price, the 2026 preliminary just value and the ratio between them, which ran from 57.5 to 89.9 percent across the eight sales. The just value starts the conversation and never ends it, because the county sets it for a January 1 date and a sale falls on another.

Step four: adjust at the walk-through, then test the competition

The county file carries no view, renovation, window or door condition, or bedroom count, so we adjust each comparable in writing at the walk-through. The condominiums listed against yours in the Southwest Florida MLS on October 3, 2026: 4 active, at $1,645,000, $1,695,000, $1,950,000 and $2,500,000, on the market from 23 to 387 days, and none pending. The pull carries each current list price and not its price changes, which we read listing by listing. We bring that Southwest Florida MLS competition to your appointment.

What Did Barefoot Beach Club I Condos Sell For in the Last Five Years?

Barefoot Beach Club I condos recorded 8 qualified sales in the five years to August 24, 2026, from $1,400,000 to $3,335,000, with none in the last 12 months. Because no window reaches 10 sales, we list every sale with its building, county base area and book and page, and we print no headline median.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

The eight qualified sales since October 2021

Every qualified sale in the five-year window is listed here. Streets are the condominium’s street numbers, buildings use the county’s Roman numeral labels, and price per square foot uses county base area, which is not living area. We give no unit numbers, because the building, plan and date identify each sale for valuation.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, sale file through August 24, 2026. The eight sales total $19,320,000, and the median of these 8 sales is $2,490,000. The county file carries no days on market or list price. The Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 3, 2026, counts 15 closings in the same 60 months, and the two sources count differently; for the 10 closings in the 36 months to October 3, 2026, median days on market was 164 and the median sale-to-list ratio was 93.4% of the final list price.

Recorded deeds the county did not mark qualified

The county recorded 7 more deeds over $100,000 against Club I condominiums in the same 60 months and did not code them qualified. We list them as a separate series and never fold them into the table above, because the county’s flag does not say why a deed was left out. Our inference, and it is only an inference, is that the flag is thin in 2022 and 2024, the years of Hurricane Ian and the 2024 storm season.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, deeds recorded October 1, 2021 through August 24, 2026, improved parcels, consideration over $100,000. The 7 deeds range from $1,000,000 to $3,850,000: one in 2021, two in 2022, three in 2024 and one in 2026. The qualified list ends in August 2025, and one further deed was recorded after it, in February 2026.

How often does a Club I condo change hands?

On the qualified record alone, 8 sales in 60 months is 1.6 a year (8 divided by 5), or 1.95 percent of the 82 condominiums a year (1.6 divided by 82). The last 24 months show 5 sales, 2.5 a year (5 divided by 2), or 3.05 percent a year (2.5 divided by 82), and the last 12 months show none. The 7 further deeds are a separate series.

What Is a Barefoot Beach Club I Condo Worth by Building, Street, Size and Position?

A Barefoot Beach Club I condo’s county just value runs from a $1,239,040 median for the 1,604 square foot plan to $2,339,440 for the end penthouses, and recorded sales split by building and plan the same way. Building, plan and floor each move the number, and eight sales are too few to separate them.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

Building by building

The three buildings share a year built, 1991, and a side of the boulevard, so the differences between them come from plan mix and floor.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll (82 parcels) and qualified sales through August 24, 2026. Buildings II and III have the same median just value because both hold only the 1,726 and 2,003 square foot plans, 12 of each. Building I carries the 1,604 square foot plan, which exists only there, and the four penthouse-level homes of 2,226 and 2,408 square feet.

Size, plan by plan

The sale column gives counts and ranges only, because no plan reaches 10 qualified sales in 60 months.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, qualified sales October 1, 2021 to August 24, 2026, and the 2026 preliminary roll. The two largest plans recorded no qualified sale in the window, so their roll values are the county’s valuation and not a price any buyer has paid.

Floor and position in the stack

The county’s median just value rises with the floor and steps up at the penthouse level. These are the county’s valuations and not evidence of what a buyer pays for height, so we state no floor premium.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll. Floors 2 to 6 hold 14 homes each (6 in building I, 4 each in buildings II and III), and the penthouse level holds 12 (4 in each building).

What the record cannot split

The county file cannot tell us a condominium’s view, renovation, bedroom count or living area. The Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 3, 2026 carries the bedroom count and MLS living area of each listing and closing, 1,604 to 2,334 square feet across the 15 closings in 60 months; views and condition are read listing by listing when we prepare a valuation. A walk-through turns a county range into a price.

Are Barefoot Beach Club I Condo Values Rising or Falling?

The county record cannot say whether Barefoot Beach Club I condo values are rising or falling, because the qualified sales are few, uneven by year and drawn from different buildings, floors and plans each time. It does give recorded prices by year and 23 repeat resales since 2016, which we report here without a trend claim.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

Recorded prices by calendar year

No year reaches 10 qualified sales, so no year carries a median, and 2022 and 2024 recorded none. The mix of buildings, floors and plans changes from year to year, so a higher or lower range in one year may reflect which condominiums sold and not what the same condominium would have fetched.

The 68 builder-direct sales of 1991 and the resales of 1992 to 2015 are left out, and we print no all-history median as a price signal.

Repeat resales: what the same condominium recorded twice

A repeat pair is two consecutive qualified resales of one condominium, the second recorded in 2016 or later, and the county file holds 23. In 22 the second price was higher and in 1 lower, with years between from 0.7 to 25.4 and a median of 8.8 years. The one lower pair was $2,290,000 in September 2018 and $2,200,000 in November 2019, 1.2 years apart. Five of the pairs have their second sale in the last five years, and all five are higher, but a pair measures one condominium over its own hold, with no adjustment for what the owner spent, so it is not a measure of the market.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, qualified resales paired by parcel (not shown); price change is the recorded price against the previous resale price, with no adjustment, and years between use 365.25 days. Three of the eight sales since October 2021 have no earlier resale in the qualified file, so they form no pair.

What we do not conclude

The usual direction signals are months of supply, the share of listings that cut price and median days on market. The Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 3, 2026, shows 4 active listings against 2 closings in the last 12 months, which is 24 months of supply, an indicative figure on so few sales, and median days on market of 164 for the 10 closings in the 36 months to October 3, 2026. The pull records the final list price only, so price cuts are read listing by listing when we prepare a valuation. We price your condominium from comparable recorded sales and do not forecast the market.

One Barefoot Beach Club I Condo’s Public Record

One 1,726 square foot condominium in building I at 253 Barefoot Beach Boulevard has five qualified sales in the county file, from a builder-direct sale in 1991 to a resale in April 2021, and a sixth deed recorded in January 2024 that the county did not code qualified. This public record, which is not our sale, shows how a price, a just value and a hold period read together.

Five Club I condominiums tie with the longest qualified chain, five sales each, and one of the five is the home the Club’s most recent sale belongs to, which our seller page walks through. We chose this one on a stated tie-break: of the other four, it is the only one with a further deed recorded in the last 60 months, so it carries six recorded transfers in the files we read. We give the building’s street number and the plan, and no unit number.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files; the deeds can be read by book and page in the Collier County Clerk’s official records. Prices per square foot use the county’s base area of 1,726 square feet. The January 2024 row is the separate series of deeds the county did not code qualified, and it is shown here so the chain is complete, not folded into any qualified figure.

Reading the record

Across the five qualified sales the recorded price went from $260,000 in 1991 to $300,000 in 1992, $370,000 in 1996, $840,000 in 2004 and $2,150,000 in April 2021, which is 127.0 percent between 1996 and 2004 over 8.4 years and 156.0 percent between 2004 and 2021 over 16.6 years. The January 2024 deed of $2,850,000 is 32.6 percent above the April 2021 price. The county’s 2026 preliminary just value for the condominium is $1,462,030, which is 68.0 percent of the April 2021 price and 51.3 percent of the January 2024 deed.

What one chain does and does not show

The record does not show what the owner spent between sales, what any listing asked or how long it sat, and it does not say why the county left the 2024 deed out of its qualified sales. The Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 3, 2026 carries the final list price, days on market and MLS living area of each closing in the last 60 months; price changes, views and condition are read listing by listing when we prepare a valuation. We use a chain like this to test our adjustments at a walk-through, never to set a price.

What Moves a Barefoot Beach Club I Condo’s Value Up or Down?

Plan size, floor, flood position, association rules and condition all move a Barefoot Beach Club I condo’s value, and the county record can show the first two. Flood position, the pet limit and the recorded repair history are what a buyer’s lender, insurer and attorney ask about next, so we price them before you list.

Side of the boulevard and building

Every Club I building stands between Barefoot Beach Boulevard and the Gulf, unlike the Club’s four east-side buildings, which our Barefoot Beach Club guide explains. Within Club I, building I at 253 holds every plan and the only penthouse-level homes above 2,003 square feet, and buildings II and III at 255 and 257 hold the two middle plans.

Flood zone, building by building

Every Club I building sits in a Special Flood Hazard Area. We queried FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer and Collier County’s public map layers on October 1, 2026 at the address points and building footprints for 253, 255 and 257, all on Collier County flood map panel 12021C0179J, effective February 8, 2024.

Street numberBuildingZone and base flood elevation (FEMA)Footprint by zone (our reading of the public map layers)
253IAE, 11 ftAE 11: 75%; VE 12: 25%
255IIAE, 11 ftAE 11: 96%; VE 12: 4%
257IIIAE, 11 ftAE 11: 79%; VE 12: 21%

Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, queried October 1, 2026 at each building’s county address point, in feet NAVD88. The footprint shares are our reading of the public map layers (the county’s 2025 building footprints against FEMA’s zone polygons) and are not a determination; the printed panel and an elevation certificate govern.

By our reading of the public map layers, the line between AE 11 and VE 12 crosses all three footprints, so a point lookup that says AE understates each building’s exposure. All three buildings are in Evacuation Zone A.

Elevation certificates, the federal rules and the repair rule

Collier County’s index held an elevation certificate for 253, entered April 19, 2022 with a building permit, and none for 255 or 257 when we queried it on October 1, 2026. We did not open the certificate, so this page states no floor elevation. No Club I building is inside a Coastal Barrier Resources System unit, so federal flood insurance is available, and unincorporated Collier County holds Class 5 in FEMA’s Community Rating System, which the county says gives eligible federal flood policies a 25 percent premium discount. Under the county’s floodplain ordinance, repairs or improvements costing 50 percent or more of the building’s value before the work starts trigger the substantial-improvement rule, a point a renovating buyer will ask us about.

What the recorded notices show, and what they do not

The county’s records index a Notice of Commencement recorded November 17, 2022 for “concrete repairs and door replace buildings 253, 255, 257” (OR 6191 PG 1058) and two recorded July 9, 2026 for “repair outdoor decks as needed and screen enclosures like for like” (OR 6607 PG 2690 and PG 2691). The notices do not state how the work was paid for, which homes it touched or what it cost, so a seller who holds the scope, contract total and funding source on paper protects the price. We state no building-level damage from any storm.

Rules that widen or narrow the buyer pool

Club I’s own declaration, section 14.15, limits pets to 20 pounds in aggregate, where the Club-wide limit under the umbrella declaration is 45 pounds, so a Club I owner’s buyer with a dog between 20 and 45 pounds has other Club condominiums to choose. The umbrella declaration allows leases of 30 days to one year, no more than three a year, with board approval and no room rentals, and it gives the board 10 business days to act on a sale. We found no age restriction. The Club I Rules and Regulations are not recorded, so confirm renovation and move-in rules with the association.

How Do Fees, Reserves, Assessments and Insurance Affect a Barefoot Beach Club I Condo’s Value?

Fees, reserves, assessments and insurance affect a Barefoot Beach Club I condo’s value because a buyer prices the whole yearly cost, and three layers of association fund the buildings, the grounds and the gate. No recorded document states any assessment in dollars, so the estoppel certificate, the budgets and the Rules turn a price into an affordable purchase.

We read the 2010 declarations and found no assessment, reserve contribution, special assessment or initiation fee stated in dollars.

How to get the real numbers

Under section 718.116(8) the association must issue the estoppel certificate within 10 business days of a written request, and it states the regular assessment, the paid-through date, any special assessment and any capital contribution, resale fee or transfer fee due. We print no dollar figure for the fee. Section 718.503 entitles a buyer under contract, at the seller’s expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the budget and financial statement, the frequently asked questions document, the milestone inspection summary where one applies and the most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none has been completed. The Club’s website, barefootbeachclub.net, carries an estoppel request form, and we order the package before every listing.

What the county roll says about carrying cost

Every Barefoot Beach parcel carries the same 2026 preliminary millage of 9.4020 mills (county 3.9293, school 4.1470, other districts 1.3257, municipal 0, and 3.9293 + 4.1470 + 1.3257 = 9.4020). Applied to Club I’s median just value of $1,772,030, that is $1,772,030 x 9.4020 / 1,000 = $16,660.63 a year before exemptions, as an illustration for a non-homestead purchase at that value. The median bill on the roll is $14,099.43, with a range from $2,656.09 to $21,506.62, because 19 of the 82 condominiums (23.2 percent) carry a homestead exemption and assessed values are capped below just value, and the median bill on the 63 condominiums without a homestead exemption is $15,432. After a sale Florida resets the new owner’s assessment to just value as of January 1 of the following year under section 193.155(3)(a), so a seller’s bill is not a forecast of a buyer’s.

Insurance and surprise assessments

Section 718.111(11) requires each condominium association to insure the condominium property, with deductibles a common expense, so a hurricane deductible can become an assessment on owners. The owner insures interior, contents and liability, and a lender on a federally backed loan requires flood insurance in a Special Flood Hazard Area. We publish no premium, deductible or limit, because none is in a public primary document for Club I.

Is the Property Appraiser’s Just Value for a Barefoot Beach Club I Condo the Same as Market Value?

No. The Collier County Property Appraiser’s just value is the county’s own valuation for the tax roll, and for the 8 qualified Barefoot Beach Club I sales since October 2021 it ran from 57.5 to 89.9 percent of the recorded price. It is a starting point for a valuation and never a sale price.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

Just value against price

The ratios sit beside each sale in the sales table above. In all 8 sales the 2026 preliminary just value was below the price, and the 8 just values total $13,410,972 against prices of $19,320,000, or 69.4 percent. The roll value is set for a January 1 date and the sales fall on other dates, three of them in 2023, so each ratio mixes dates and the figure says what the county’s number looked like beside a price, not what a home is worth.

Barefoot Beach Club I vs Barefoot Beach Club III: How Do the County Records Compare?

Barefoot Beach Club I and Barefoot Beach Club III are the two Club condominiums whose buildings all stand on the Gulf side of the boulevard. Club I has 82 homes dated 1991 and a 20-pound pet limit, and Club III has 92 homes dated 1992 and the Club-wide 45-pound limit. Neither reaches 10 qualified sales in any window.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

The decision table

Club III’s buildings are 265, 267 and 269, labelled VIII, X and XII on the county roll, which is a different thing from Club I’s building III at 257. Club III’s association, declaration and flood rows are described on its guide, and its sales are listed one by one on our Club III valuation page.

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll and qualified sales through August 24, 2026; recorded declarations as read in our Club I guide and Club III guide; turnover for Club III is 9 divided by 5 is 1.8 a year, and 1.8 divided by 92 is 1.96 percent. The contract controls closing costs in both.

When Club I is the better fit, and when Club III is

Owners who prefer a smaller association of 82 homes and a smaller footprint share in the VE 12 zone by our reading of the public map layers will lean to Club I, and buyers with a dog between 20 and 45 pounds will lean to Club III. A Club III sale is a comparable for a Club I home only after adjusting for building, floor and plan.

How Do Barefoot Beach Club I Values Compare With the Rest of Barefoot Beach?

Barefoot Beach Club I holds 82 of the 635 residential homes on the Barefoot Beach roll, 12.9 percent, and recorded 8 of the area’s 85 qualified sales in 60 months. Its median just value of $1,772,030 is the highest of the four Club condominiums and below the area’s $1,878,934.

How to read the table

Club I’s 8 sales are 9.4 percent of the area’s 85 (8 divided by 85), and its roll holds 12.9 percent of the homes (82 divided by 635). Club I’s median just value of $1,772,030 sits above Club III’s $1,622,030, Club II’s $1,462,030 and Club IV’s $1,225,482, because every Club I building is on the Gulf side while Club II and Club IV each have east-side buildings. For the wider picture, read our Barefoot Beach community valuation page, our guides to the Villas at Barefoot Beach, The Cottages at Barefoot Beach and Southport on the Bay, and the valuation pages for Club II and Club IV.

What Will You Net When You Sell a Barefoot Beach Club I Condo?

A Barefoot Beach Club I seller at the latest recorded qualified sale price of $1,875,000 would see about $1,761,172 before mortgage payoff and the association’s estoppel fee, with a 2.5 percent listing commission and a 2.5 percent buyer-agent offer, or $1,808,047 with no buyer-agent offer. Collier custom puts the deed stamps on the seller and the owner’s title policy on the buyer.

Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County Property Appraiser public data files, 2026 preliminary roll, sales through August 24, 2026)

Two net sheets at recorded price points

The first price is the most recent qualified Club I sale, recorded August 15, 2025, and the second is the median of the eight qualified sales since October 2021. The commission lines are examples, because every commission is negotiated and we quote no set rate.

Source: Florida Statute 201.02 for the $0.70 per $100 deed tax ($1,875,000 / 100 x $0.70 = $13,125, and $2,490,000 / 100 x $0.70 = $17,430); the proration uses Club I’s 2026 preliminary median tax bill of $14,099.43 for 180 of 365 days as an illustration ($14,099.43 x 180 / 365 = $6,953.14), and your own bill will differ. The estoppel certificate fee is capped by statute and is not included. Both sheets assume no mortgage.

Who pays what in Collier County

In Collier County the buyer customarily pays the owner’s title policy and chooses the closing agent, and the seller customarily pays documentary stamp tax on the deed. The contract controls both. The sheet leaves out your payoff, the estoppel fee, any repair credit, a special assessment and federal tax on any gain.

What Could We Not Verify for This Page?

We could not verify the items below from a recorded or government source, and we say so rather than fill the gap with a guess. Each carries the route to the answer, whether that is the association office, the county or a walk-through with us. Data updated: October 2026.

What we read and queried first-hand

We tracked every qualified sale in the tables above, all 82 parcels on the county’s 2026 preliminary roll, the recorded declarations by book and page, and FEMA’s flood layer and the county’s address, footprint and elevation certificate layers at 253, 255 and 257 Barefoot Beach Boulevard on October 1, 2026. We did not open the elevation certificate, read any member-only association record or pull Southwest Florida MLS figures.

What we could not verify

  • Southwest Florida MLS figures. Closed-sale counts, median price, days on market, sale-to-list ratio, active listings, months of supply, living area and our own Barefoot Beach Club I closing record, which is no closings in 60 months, are stated on this page from the pull of October 3, 2026. The pull records the final list price only, so price changes, views and condition are read listing by listing when we prepare a valuation.
  • Assessment and fee dollars. No recorded or government document we read states one for Club I, the umbrella or the Master Association. Request the estoppel certificate, budgets and Rules from the association.
  • Special assessments. None is recorded that we found, and they are normally not recorded. The estoppel certificate and board minutes answer for a condominium.
  • Milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study status. We state no building’s status. The documents for your own building are in the section 718.503 package.
  • The Rules and Regulations. They are not recorded. The association office at 259 Barefoot Beach Boulevard provides them on request.
  • The scope and cost of the 2022 and 2026 repair notices. The notices state neither, so ask the association and read the Clerk’s records.
  • View, floor condition, renovation and bedroom count. The county file carries none of them, and a walk-through answers them.
  • Footprint readings. The flood footprint shares are our reading of the public map layers. The printed panel, a survey and an elevation certificate govern.
  • Insurance carriers, limits, deductibles and premiums. They are not public. The association’s certificate of insurance and your agent answer.
  • Why the county left a deed out of its qualified sales. The county file states no reason, and the gate procedure for guests and vendors is confirmed only from the association.

Frequently Asked Questions, Barefoot Beach Club I Home Value Edition

These answers come from the Collier County deed and tax record, recorded Barefoot Beach Club I documents, federal, state and county agencies and Florida law. County figures lead, with Southwest Florida MLS figures pulled October 3, 2026 beside them. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072 for a range on your own condo.

How much is my Barefoot Beach Club I condo worth?

It is worth what condominiums like it in your building and plan recently recorded. The county shows 8 qualified sales in 60 months, from $1,400,000 to $3,335,000, and none in the last 12 months, but building, plan and floor move the number, so request a free valuation for a range on your own home.

What is the median sale price at Barefoot Beach Club I?

No window reaches the 10 qualified sales that a median needs, so we print no headline median. The county shows 8 sales in 60 months from $1,400,000 to $3,335,000, and the median of these 8 sales is $2,490,000. It is a county figure, not an MLS figure, and the list above shows every sale.

Are Barefoot Beach Club I condo prices going up or down?

The county record cannot say. Qualified sales are few, none were recorded in 2022 or 2024, and each year’s mix of buildings, floors and plans differs. The 23 repeat resales since 2016 show 22 higher and 1 lower, but repeat pairs are not a market trend.

How many condominiums are in Barefoot Beach Club I?

There are 82 in three buildings: 34 at 253 Barefoot Beach Boulevard, 24 at 255 and 24 at 257. The state’s condominium record, the county roll and the recorded declaration all agree on 82.

Which buildings make up Barefoot Beach Club I?

Barefoot Beach Club I is the county’s buildings I, II and III at 253, 255 and 257 Barefoot Beach Boulevard, all on the Gulf side. The county’s building III at 257 is part of Club I and is not Club III, which is a different condominium at 265, 267 and 269.

What floor plans does Barefoot Beach Club I have?

The roll shows five county base areas: 1,604 square feet in 10 homes, 1,726 in 34, 2,003 in 34, 2,226 in 2 and 2,408 in 2. The 1,604 plan exists only in building I, and the four largest homes are the penthouse-level homes of building I.

Is county base area the same as living area?

No. County base area is the figure the Property Appraiser carries on the roll, and the living area on a Southwest Florida MLS listing can differ. Every price per square foot on this page is therefore a price per county base square foot.

What is the Property Appraiser’s just value?

Just value is the Collier County Property Appraiser’s valuation for the tax roll as of January 1. For the 8 qualified Club I sales since October 2021 the 2026 preliminary just value ran from 57.5 to 89.9 percent of the price, so it is never a price.

Why is my tax bill different from the Club I median?

Club I’s median 2026 preliminary bill is $14,099.43, but bills run from $2,656.09 to $21,506.62 because of exemptions and caps. After a sale Florida resets the new owner’s assessment to just value as of January 1 of the following year under section 193.155(3)(a), so a seller’s bill does not forecast a buyer’s.

What is the property tax rate at Barefoot Beach Club I?

The 2026 preliminary millage is 9.4020 mills: county 3.9293, school 4.1470, other districts 1.3257 and municipal 0, with no city tax because Club I is in unincorporated Collier County. At the median just value of $1,772,030 that is $16,660.63 before exemptions.

Is Barefoot Beach Club I in Bonita Springs or Naples?

Neither city. It is in unincorporated Collier County with a Bonita Springs, FL 34134 mailing address. The City of Bonita Springs stops at the Lee County line along Bonita Beach Road, so owners follow Collier County permits, evacuation orders and school zones. See our Bonita Springs page.

Is Barefoot Beach Club I the same as The Club at Barefoot Beach?

No. Barefoot Beach Club I is the 82-condominium association on this page. The Club at Barefoot Beach is a separate private member club at 105 Shell Drive, and its own site says it was not accepting waitlist applications as of June 1, 2026. Membership does not convey with a Club I deed.

What flood zone is Barefoot Beach Club I in?

Every building is in a Special Flood Hazard Area. FEMA’s flood layer returned Zone AE at a base flood elevation of 11 feet for 253, 255 and 257 Barefoot Beach Boulevard. By our reading of the public map layers, 4 to 25 percent of each footprint lies in VE 12.

Do I need flood insurance on a Barefoot Beach Club I condo?

A lender on a federally backed loan must require flood insurance in a Special Flood Hazard Area, and every Club I building is in one. Whether the association carries flood coverage on the building is on its certificate of insurance, which the association provides on request.

What must I give a buyer when I sell a Barefoot Beach Club I condo?

Under section 718.503 a buyer under contract is entitled, at your expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the budget and financial statement and the frequently asked questions document, plus the milestone summary where one applies and the most recent reserve study or a statement that none has been completed. Florida also requires the section 689.302 flood disclosure.

What is the buyer’s 7-day cancellation right on a condo resale?

Section 718.503 requires the contract to say the buyer may cancel within 7 days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after signing and receiving the documents. Contracts entered after December 31, 2024 carry a second clause giving 7 days after receipt of the milestone summary and reserve study, where applicable.

What is an estoppel certificate?

It is the association’s written statement of what a condominium owes: the regular assessment, the paid-through date, any special assessment and whether a capital contribution, resale fee or transfer fee is due. Under section 718.116(8) the association must issue it within 10 business days of a written request, and the fee is capped by statute.

Who pays for title insurance in Collier County?

The buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title policy and chooses the closing agent. That is custom and not law, so the contract controls. A Barefoot Beach Club I seller should not budget for the owner’s policy unless the contract says so.

Who pays the documentary stamp tax on a Club I sale?

The seller customarily pays documentary stamp tax on the deed, $0.70 per $100 of price under section 201.02, and the contract controls. On a $1,875,000 sale that is 18,750 units of $100 times $0.70, or $13,125, and on a $2,490,000 sale it is $17,430.

How much will I net when I sell a Barefoot Beach Club I condo?

At the $1,875,000 latest recorded sale price, with example commission lines of 2.5 percent each for listing and buyer-agent compensation, about $1,761,172 before payoff and the estoppel certificate fee, or $1,808,047 with no buyer-agent offer. Commissions are negotiable.

Can I rent my Barefoot Beach Club I condo?

Yes, with limits. The recorded umbrella declaration requires board approval and a written lease, sets a minimum of 30 consecutive days or one calendar month and a maximum of one year, and allows no more than three leases a year. Room rentals and subleasing are not allowed.

Are pets allowed at Barefoot Beach Club I?

Yes, with a weight limit. The Club I declaration, section 14.15, limits pets to 20 pounds in aggregate, stricter than the 45 pounds in the umbrella declaration. Pets must be registered and are not allowed on the beach.

Does the 20-pound pet limit change a Club I condo’s value?

We cannot measure it from the Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 3, 2026, which records prices and days on market and not why a buyer chose one building over another. It narrows the buyer pool for owners of larger dogs, and Club II, III and IV allow 45 pounds, so a buyer with a large dog has alternatives. A seller should disclose the limit early.

Does Barefoot Beach Club I have an age restriction?

We found none. Our keyword pass over the five 2010 recorded Club documents found no 55-and-over or housing-for-older-persons language. The umbrella declaration caps occupancy at four persons in a two-bedroom home and six in a three-bedroom home.

What do the association fees cover at Barefoot Beach Club I?

Three layers share the cost. The Club I association covers its three buildings’ common elements and insurance, the Club umbrella covers pools, clubhouse, grounds and private streets, and the Master Association covers the boulevard and gate. No recorded document states an assessment in dollars, so the estoppel certificate and budgets give the real figures.

Is Barefoot Beach Club I gated?

Yes. The recorded 2009 turnover agreement requires the Master Association to staff the guardhouse 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with a licensed security guard. The gate’s guest and vendor procedure is not in the public record, so ask the association.

Can I rely on an online estimate to price my condo?

Not for a Barefoot Beach Club I condo. An automated estimate sees 8 qualified sales in five years, county base area and no view, floor or association facts. It cannot tell a 1,604 square foot plan from a 2,003 square foot plan, which the roll values $759,894 apart at the median.

What does the 50 percent rule mean for a Club I renovation?

Collier County’s floodplain ordinance treats work costing 50 percent or more of the building’s value before the work starts as a substantial improvement that must meet current flood standards. The county does not say how it applies to one condominium, so ask its Floodplain Management Section before pricing a large renovation.

Do the 2022 and 2026 repair notices change a Club I condo’s value?

We cannot say, and we state no building-level damage. The notices show work was contracted, not its scope, cost or funding. A buyer will ask for the scope, contract total, funding source and any remaining assessment, so a seller with those documents on paper removes uncertainty.

Should I sell my Barefoot Beach Club I condo now?

That depends on your building and goals, and we do not call the market’s direction from the county record. The Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 3, 2026, shows 4 Club I condos for sale against 2 closings in the last 12 months, and median days on market of 164 for the 10 closings in the 36 months to that date, so the useful first step is a free valuation. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

How many Barefoot Beach Club I condos sold in the last year?

The county shows no qualified sale from October 1, 2025 to August 24, 2026, out of 82 condominiums, and 8 over five years. It recorded one further deed of $1,200,000 on February 23, 2026 at 257 that it did not code qualified, which we list as a separate series.

Why does the county show no Club I sale in 2022 or 2024?

The county’s qualified flag is thin in those two years, and the county file states no reason. It recorded 2 deeds over $100,000 in 2022 and 3 in 2024 that it did not code qualified. So a quiet year in the qualified file is not proof of a quiet market.

Does a penthouse-level condo sell for more?

The county values the penthouse level higher, at a $2,169,557 median against $1,622,030 on floor 6. Only one qualified sale since October 2021 was at the penthouse level, a 2,003 square foot home at 257 in July 2025 at $2,950,000, so we state no penthouse premium.

How does Club I compare with Club III on value?

Club I’s median just value is $1,772,030 against Club III’s $1,622,030, and each recorded under 10 qualified sales in five years, 8 against 9. Club III recorded 4 in the last 12 months and Club I none. Read the Club III comparison above for the full table.

Where can I read the Club I recorded documents?

The Collier County Clerk’s official records search carries every recorded instrument by book and page, including the Club I declaration at OR 4612 PG 3276 and the umbrella’s master declaration at OR 4612 PG 3203. The Rules and Regulations are not recorded, and the association office provides them on request.

Why Does a Barefoot Beach Specialist Matter When You Value Your Home?

A Barefoot Beach specialist matters when you value your condo because the gated community holds eight neighborhoods with very different records, and a Club I condominium is priced from its own building and plan, not from a ZIP code. A specialist reads the documents, flood layers and roll before quoting a range.

McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, read what the other side will read. A buyer’s agent, lender and insurer will read your estoppel certificate, your building’s flood zone, the recorded repair notices and the county roll, and a seller who has read them first sets a price that survives the contract period. Read our Barefoot Beach community page for the whole area, our Bonita Springs guide for the market around it, and our Barefoot Beach community valuation page for the other seven neighborhoods.
