Anglers Cove is a 320-unit condominium on the Marco River at the north end of Marco Island, Florida, inside the City of Marco Island in Collier County. It is the largest of the three condominiums on the Bald Eagle Drive corridor compared on this page, and it runs its own 31-slip marina for owners and tenants. If you are weighing who should sell or buy here, our comparison of the best real estate agents in Marco Island shows how local agents stack up on the public record, and our Marco Island area guide covers the rest of the island.
Anglers Cove is a 320-unit condominium of twelve five-story buildings on about thirteen acres beside the Marco River, at 995 to 1031 Anglers Cove, Marco Island, FL 34145. The buildings date from 1982 to 1986 on the Collier County roll, every unit is a one- or two-bedroom flat of 717 to 852 heated square feet, and the property has its own 31-slip marina.
The association describes the property in its own words as located “directly on The Marco River,” with “two swimming pools, two spas, two tennis courts, private boat dockage, and an authentic tiki restaurant” (Anglers Cove Condominium Association). Everything else on this page is built from the county roll, the state condominium register, the Southwest Florida MLS pulled on 2026-10-07, federal flood and storm records, Florida statute text and the association’s own published rules.
The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) records the condominium’s location as “Bald Eagle and N Barfield Dr,” which places it on the north-east, Marco River side of the island, a short drive from the Judge S.S. Jolley Bridge that carries Collier Boulevard to the mainland (DBPR condominium public records). The U.S. Census Bureau geocoder places 1024 Anglers Cove at latitude 25.96026, longitude -81.72665 (Census geocoder). Riverside Club and Pier 81 are its nearest condominium neighbours on Bald Eagle Drive, and Rose Marina sits on the same road at 951 Bald Eagle Drive (Rose Marina).

“Anglers Cove” is a common name in Florida, and the Division of Corporations lists many unrelated entities with it; this page covers only the Marco Island condominium governed by Anglers Cove Condominium Association, Inc., document 750594, with its principal address at 999 Anglers Cove (Florida Division of Corporations). The on-site Dolphin Tiki Bar and Grill at 1021 Anglers Cove is a restaurant on the property, not a separate residential address (Dolphin Tiki Bar and Grill).

Anglers Cove suits a buyer who wants a small, lock-and-leave Marco Island condo on the water for well under the island’s beachfront prices: 717 to 852 square feet, two pools, tennis, a tiki restaurant on the grounds and a boat slip you can rent. It does not suit a buyer with a dog, or one who needs a large floor plan.
The sales record describes the buyer by what the property offers. Every one of the 320 units is a one- or two-bedroom flat under 860 heated square feet (Collier County roll), every MLS closing in the last 60 months carries the label “Mid Rise (4-7),” and the association advertises a “family-friendly community” with rental registration forms for both short-term and annual tenants (Anglers Cove association). In our reading of the sales and the rules, that mix tends to draw three kinds of buyer: second-home owners who use the unit part of the year, owners who rent it when they are away within the association’s rules, and boaters who want a slip a short walk from the front door.
What Anglers Cove gives you is water, a marina, a restaurant and a price point. In the 12 months to 2026-10-07 the median Anglers Cove sale was $350,000 (Southwest Florida MLS), against a City of Marco Island where the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey puts the median value of an owner-occupied home at $896,300 (U.S. Census QuickFacts, Marco Island city). What you give up is space, the option of a pet, and a Gulf beach at the door: Anglers Cove is on the river side of the island, and the public Gulf beaches are a drive away (see the daily logistics section below).
We tracked every Anglers Cove closing on the Southwest Florida MLS for the five years to 2026-10-07, 90 closings in all, and read them against the 806 qualified recorded sales the Collier County roll data holds for the condominium. Two things stood out. First, the building is remarkably uniform: four floor-plan sizes cover every sale. Second, price differences inside the building come mostly from floor plan, renovation and timing, not from building or floor, which the tables below show sale by sale.
Anglers Cove recorded 20 closed sales on the Southwest Florida MLS in the 12 months to 2026-10-07, at a median of $350,000 and a range of $290,000 to $500,000. That window is the first of the 12, 24, 36 and 60 month windows to hold ten or more closings, so it leads every figure below.
Data updated: October 2026. All MLS figures are for the 12 months to 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS, unless another window is named.
| Measure | Figure | Count behind it |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 20 | 20 |
| Median sale price | $350,000 | 20 sales |
| Lowest and highest sale | $290,000 to $500,000 | 20 sales |
| Dollar volume | $7,202,900 | 20 sales |
| Median price per square foot | about $469 | 20 sales |
| Median days on market | 94 | 19 sales (one sale entered 0 days is excluded) |
| Median sale to final list price | 93.7 percent | 20 sales |
| Sales entered after closing (Sold Data Entry) | 0 | 20 sales |
Medians are the middle value of the sorted sales; with 20 sales, the median is the average of the 10th and 11th, which here are both $350,000. Price per square foot is each sale’s price divided by its MLS square footage, then the median of those 20 ratios.

The Collier County roll data dated 2026-08-29 (recorded sales through 2026-08-24) holds 20 qualified, arm’s-length recorded sales of Anglers Cove units in the 12 months to 2026-08-24, at a median of $356,250 and a range of $290,000 to $500,000. A qualified recorded sale is a deed the county has graded as a fair market, arm’s-length transfer; it is a county record, not an MLS record, and its dates are deed dates. The two windows end about six weeks apart, which is why the medians differ by $6,250. Where a deed and the MLS describe the same sale, they agree on price in this record: for example, the $500,000 sale of a 852 square foot unit at 1003 Anglers Cove carries a deed date of 2026-06-26 and an MLS closing date of 2026-07-01.
Sale to list here means the sale price divided by the final list price, after any price reductions. A median of 93.7 percent means the typical Anglers Cove seller in the last 12 months accepted about 6.3 percent less than the last asking price. Only one of the 20 sellers, at 1019 Anglers Cove unit F302, sold at or above the final asking price, at $350,000 against a final list of $349,999. Pricing right at the start matters more here than in a fast market.
The 20 sales run from $290,000 to $500,000 for units that differ in size by at most 135 square feet, so size alone does not explain a $210,000 range. The two highest sales, $500,000 and $487,000, were both 852 square foot two-bedroom units, while another 852 square foot two-bedroom at 1003 Anglers Cove, the building of the $500,000 sale, sold for $300,000. Condition, renovation, view and timing carry the rest of the difference, which is why a valuation for an Anglers Cove unit has to be built from the specific unit, not from the building median.
Anglers Cove is a 320-unit Marco River condominium inside the City of Marco Island, with a 12-month median sale of $350,000 (Southwest Florida MLS, to 2026-10-07).

Anglers Cove prices rose from 2021 to a peak year in 2023 and have since come back: the median MLS sale was $420,000 in 2022 and $430,000 in 2023, then $411,000 in 2024, $350,000 in 2025 and $356,250 so far in 2026, on 14 to 19 closings a year (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled 2026-10-07).
Data updated: October 2026.
| Year | Closings | Median sale | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 | 9 | $339,000 | Partial year: 2021-10-07 to 2021-12-31 only |
| 2022 | 19 | $420,000 | Full year |
| 2023 | 17 | $430,000 | Full year |
| 2024 | 14 | $411,000 | Full year |
| 2025 | 15 | $350,000 | Full year |
| 2026 | 16 | $356,250 | Partial year: to 2026-10-07 |
Medians of fewer than ten sales (2021) are the median of those nine sales only. The 60-month window behind this table holds 90 closings, three of them entered after closing (Sold Data Entry), which count in closing counts and medians.
In our reading, the pattern is consistent with buyers pricing in insurance, reserve funding and inspection costs on older condominium buildings after Hurricane Ian and Florida’s 2022 to 2025 condominium law changes; the MLS figures show the price movement, not its cause. The 24-month window (34 closings, median $366,250) and the 36-month window (50 closings, median $377,750) sit between the 2023 peak and today, and the 60-month window holds 90 closings at a median of $390,000. Those wider windows are context; the 12-month median of $350,000 is the current price signal.
Anglers Cove had 11 units listed for sale and none pending on 2026-10-07, asking from $295,000 to $599,000 with a median ask of $400,000. That median ask sits $50,000 above the 12-month median sale of $350,000, which is the gap a buyer negotiates in and a seller has to price through.

Square footage is as entered by the listing agent; the county roll records 717 square feet for every unit at 1023 Anglers Cove, so the 804 square foot entry for unit E304 is a listing-entered figure the roll does not support.
Eleven active listings against 20 sales in 12 months (1.67 sales a month) is about 6.6 months of supply. Seven of the eleven listings had been on the market more than 100 days on 2026-10-07. In plain terms, buyers have choice at Anglers Cove and sellers compete with each other.
Six of the eleven asking prices are above the highest one-bedroom sale of the last 12 months ($395,000 for a one-bedroom-plus-den at 1007 Anglers Cove), and the highest ask, $599,000 for an 852 square foot two-bedroom, is $99,000 above the highest sale of any unit in the window. An asking price is not a sale; the closed sales above are the evidence a lender’s appraiser will use.
Anglers Cove has four unit sizes on the Collier County roll: 717, 732, 802 and 852 heated square feet, all one or two bedrooms. The 717 and 732 square foot plans are one-bedroom units (some marketed with a den or a second bath), and the 802 and 852 square foot plans are two-bedroom units.

The parcel counts add to 320. Sizes and years are the values on the qualified recorded sales the county file holds for each building.
| Heated sq ft | Sales | Median of these sales | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 717 | 8 | $330,000 | $300,000 to $395,000 |
| 732 | 4 | $311,250 | $290,000 to $350,000 |
| 802 | 2 | $402,450 | $399,900 to $405,000 |
| 852 | 6 | $400,000 | $300,000 to $500,000 |
Each row holds fewer than ten sales, so each median is the median of those sales only, not a building-wide price signal.
Not in this record. The MLS unit numbers read as building letter, floor and unit (unit B501 is on the fifth floor of 1027 Anglers Cove), and the 20 sales split exactly five per floor from the second to the fifth. The median of the five fifth-floor sales was $305,000, against $370,000 for the five second-floor sales. Five sales per floor is too few to call a floor discount, but it is enough to say that floor height has not been a reliable premium here; size and condition have mattered more.
In the 12-month window the eight two-bedroom sales (802 and 852 square feet) had a median of $400,000, and the twelve one-bedroom sales (717 and 732 square feet) a median of $312,500. The two-bedroom premium is about $87,500 for 85 to 135 more square feet, which is the main pricing decision a buyer makes here.
Anglers Cove was organized as a condominium association in 1980 and registered with the state in 1982, and its buildings were completed between 1982 and 1986, on the Collier County roll and the Florida records. Three public records identify it, and they agree on the essentials: 320 units, one association, one name.
The Collier County roll data dated 2026-08-29 records 320 improved condominium parcels under the name ANGLERS COVE A CONDOMINIUM, all on the street Anglers Cove, in twelve building addresses. Ten buildings carry a 1982 year built and two, 995 and 999 Anglers Cove, carry 1986. Heated area runs from 717 to 852 square feet with a median of 732. Collier County roll data was read from the files already pulled for this build; the Property Appraiser’s website was not queried.
The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation lists the condominium as ANGLERS COVE, project PR1P006763, file 51783, 320 units, with a recorded date of 1982-01-27 and a managing entity of Anglers Cove Condo Assn, in its public condominium extract (DBPR Condo_CW extract). Buyers can look up any registered Florida condominium the same way through the division’s public records page (DBPR public records).
The Florida Division of Corporations lists Anglers Cove Condominium Association, Inc. as document 750594, status Active, filed 1980-01-14, with its principal address at 999 Anglers Cove, Marco Island, and a law firm, Becker and Poliakoff, P.A., as registered agent (Florida Division of Corporations). The association’s 2026 annual report is on file there. Officers and directors are listed on the state record and on the association’s own board page; this page does not name individuals.
The Anglers Cove Declaration of Condominium is recorded in the Collier County Official Records, searchable through the Clerk of the Circuit Court (Collier County Clerk records search). We did not retrieve the recorded instrument for this page. The association’s own House Rules quote one section of it directly: “The Declaration provides in 16.1 Board Right of Approval for Leases for Leases of Three (3) Months or Longer,” and the rules cite Bylaws Section 4.4 as the board’s authority to adopt regulations (Anglers Cove House Rules, adopted 2023-07-27). The quoted section refers to a uniform lease application applying to leases “commencing on or after January 1, 2024,” which indicates the Declaration was amended recently; a buyer should read the current amended and restated version in the resale package.
The association runs an on-site office at 999 Anglers Cove, open Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. under the House Rules, and its website routes owner logins and estoppel requests to Resort Management, a Southwest Florida association management company (Resort Management estoppel requests). The rules also name a separate after-hours line for non-emergency matters from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
Anglers Cove has two swimming pools, two spas, two tennis courts, a social room, pool decks, a 31-slip marina with wave runner slips, a floating fishing dock and an on-site restaurant, the Dolphin Tiki Bar and Grill, on about thirteen acres beside the Marco River. Every amenity below is described from the association’s own website and its House Rules.
The association lists “two large swimming pools and adjoining sun decks” and two spas (Anglers Cove about page). Under the House Rules, pool and spa hours are 9:00 a.m. until dusk, with lap swimming from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. at the South Pool and 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. at the North Pool; each pool’s bathing load is 25 persons; spa temperatures are 102 and 104 degrees with a 15-minute limit; no glass or animals are allowed on the decks; and a resident may bring no more than ten guests to the pool area.
Anglers Cove has two tennis courts, which the association describes as “newly resurfaced.” Under the House Rules, play is limited to one hour, sign-up sheets are courtside, reservations run in two-week blocks, and the owner’s unit key opens the court gates.
The association describes “an authentic tiki bar and restaurant … located on the property overlooking the water.” The restaurant lists its address as 1021 Anglers Cove (Dolphin Tiki Bar and Grill). Having a public restaurant on the grounds is a convenience for owners and a source of traffic, which some buyers like and some do not.
The social room is for residents only, holds up to 45 people, books for up to four hours between 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m., and takes a refundable $200 deposit (House Rules). Pool decks can be reserved for private parties for up to four hours.
The association says owners can “drop a line and fish” at several places along the water and offers a floating dock “for fishing or just relaxing on the water.” The House Rules bar fishing from the gangways and bar feeding fish carcasses or bait to pelicans.
Anglers Cove’s marina has 31 boat slips and 6 wave runner slips that the association leases to unit owners and tenants, not slips deeded to units. Under the House Rules adopted 2023-07-27, a one-year slip lease paid in advance costs $5.40 per foot per month, and slips are assigned first come, first served.
| Slip length | Number of slips | Use |
|---|---|---|
| 20 feet | 1 | Lease to owners and tenants |
| 25 feet | 15 | Lease to owners and tenants |
| 31 feet | 8 | Lease to owners and tenants |
| 40 feet | 5 | Lease to owners and tenants |
| Commercial | 2 | Fishing charter use, six-person maximum |
| Wave runner | 6 | Lease to owners and tenants |
The four leasable sizes add to 29 slips; with the two commercial slips that makes the 31 the association publishes. The rules separately designate three slips as transient, kept available first come, first served. Which slips fill the transient role is not stated.
At $5.40 per foot per month on a prepaid one-year lease: a 25-foot slip is $135.00 a month ($1,620 a year), a 31-foot slip is $167.40 a month ($2,008.80 a year), and a 40-foot slip is $216.00 a month ($2,592 a year). Boaters staying less than six months pay $51 a day, $205 a week or $360 a month. Commercial slips are $8.60 per foot per month on a one-year lease. Fees are owed whether or not the boat is in the slip, and the rules say “there are no refunds for any reason for fees paid.”
Because slips are leased rather than deeded, a slip does not convey with the unit when you sell; a buyer who needs one should ask the office about the waitlist before contracting, and the estoppel certificate will show any slip balance owed.
Anglers Cove sits on the Marco River, which NOAA’s United States Coast Pilot describes as giving a through passage from the Big Marco Pass area to Gullivan Bay with a midchannel controlling depth of about 4 feet and “numerous reports of shoaling” between Capri Pass Light 2 and Big Marco River Daybeacon 18 (NOAA Coast Pilot 5, Chapter 4). The Coast Pilot says Big Marco Pass is now “completely closed off by a barrier island” and that boaters use Capri Pass, about half a mile north, to reach the inland waters, with local knowledge advised. The fixed highway bridge between Bear Point and Marco Island (the Jolley Bridge on Collier Boulevard) has a charted clearance of 55 feet. Florida’s manatee rule sets slow speed on the Marco River east of the Collier Boulevard bridges and idle speed in Collier Bay (Fla. Admin. Code 68C-22.023, Cornell LII). The exact route and draft limit from the Anglers Cove docks should be confirmed on the current chart and with local captains before you buy a boat to fit the slip.
Anglers Cove condo fees, as entered by listing agents on the Southwest Florida MLS, run $8,560 to $8,668 a year on all eleven units listed on 2026-10-07, paid quarterly at $2,140 to $2,167 or monthly at $717 to $722. The association’s budget and its list of what the fee covers are not published on its public website.
| Listing set | Count | Annual condo fee as entered | Frequency entered |
|---|---|---|---|
| Active listings, 2026-10-07 | 11 | $8,560 to $8,668 | Quarterly ($2,140 to $2,167) or monthly ($717 to $722) |
| Closed sales, 12 months to 2026-10-07 | 18 of 20 | $8,556 to $8,664 | Quarterly or monthly |
| Closed sales, 12 months to 2026-10-07 | 2 of 20 | $5,060 | Quarterly ($1,265) |
These are figures as entered by listing agents, not the association’s budget. The two $5,060 entries, both on 852 square foot units at 1003 Anglers Cove, sit far below every other entry and do not match the rest of the building; we treat them as entry errors until the association’s budget shows otherwise. Two active listings also show a $75 transfer fee as entered.
The association’s budget, reserve schedule and fee inclusions are not published on its public website; owners reach them through the owner portal. Listing remarks are not a substitute for the budget. Under Florida law a buyer is entitled, at the seller’s expense, to the annual budget and annual financial statement as part of the resale documents (Fla. Stat. 718.503), and the estoppel certificate states the regular assessment and anything owed (Fla. Stat. 718.116). Read those before you rely on any fee figure, including ours. Sellers can get a free valuation that accounts for the fee, and buyers can book a buyer consultation to read the documents with us.
At the most common entered figure of $8,660 a year, the condo fee is about 2.5 percent of the 12-month median Anglers Cove sale of $350,000 ($8,660 divided by $350,000 is 2.47 percent). For a $300,000 unit it is 2.9 percent. That ratio is why the fee, not the price, is often the first number Anglers Cove buyers ask about, and why a seller’s listing has to explain it.
Owning at Anglers Cove costs more than the condo fee: property tax at the 2025 Marco Island millage, an HO-6 unit-owner insurance policy, application and screening fees for tenants, an estoppel fee at sale, and slip rent if you keep a boat. Each layer below is sourced, and the worked example shows the arithmetic.
A standard Marco Island parcel carried 8.9535 mills of confirmed ad valorem levies for tax year 2025: Collier County 3.2449 (general fund, water pollution control and Conservation Collier), Collier County Public Schools 4.2490, South Florida Water Management District with the Big Cypress Basin 0.1926, and the City of Marco Island 1.2670 (Florida Department of Revenue, Table 1, Collier 2025-26; City of Marco Island FY2026 adopted budget). The Collier Mosquito Control District levy is extra and its 2025 rate was not confirmed. At 8.9535 mills, every $100,000 of taxable value carries $895.35 a year. A buyer’s taxable value resets to just value the year after purchase, and a homestead owner can claim the exemptions in Fla. Stat. 196.031 and the Save Our Homes cap in Fla. Stat. 193.155; a non-homestead unit is capped at 10 percent a year for non-school levies under Fla. Stat. 193.1554.
The association’s published lease documents set the tenant application fee at $100 per applicant on the 2020 annual lease application and the annual lease procedures, and at $150 per tenant or family unit in the House Rules adopted 2023-07-27; any adult occupant who is not a lessee needs a $150 criminal background check (annual lease procedures; annual lease application). The two published amounts conflict; the 2023 House Rules are the newer document. The association may also collect a common area security deposit of up to one month’s rent. A replacement mailbox key is $25.
An estoppel certificate is the association’s statement of what a unit owes. Florida law requires the association to issue it within 10 business days of a request, makes it effective for 30 days when delivered by hand or electronically, and caps the fee at $250 when nothing is delinquent, plus $100 for delivery within three business days and up to $150 more when an account is delinquent, with the caps adjusted for inflation every five years (Fla. Stat. 718.116). Anglers Cove estoppels are ordered through Resort Management’s online form. The same statute makes a buyer jointly and severally liable with the previous owner for unpaid assessments, which is why the estoppel is read before closing, not after.
Florida charges documentary stamp tax on a deed at 70 cents per $100 of consideration (Fla. Stat. 201.02), so a $350,000 Anglers Cove sale carries $2,450 of deed stamps, customarily paid by the seller. A financed buyer pays 35 cents per $100 on the note (Fla. Stat. 201.08) and the 2-mill nonrecurring intangible tax on the mortgage (Fla. Stat. 199.133); on a $280,000 loan that is $980 and $560. In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and selects the title agent, the reverse of neighbouring Lee County, per a Naples real estate law firm (Goodwin Law) and a Florida title and law firm’s county table (Barnes Walker). The signed contract controls on every sale: the standard Florida contract has a box that decides who pays and who chooses.
For a non-homestead unit with a $300,000 taxable value and the common $8,660 condo fee: the fee is $721.67 a month ($8,660 divided by 12); property tax at 8.9535 mills is $2,686.05 a year, or $223.84 a month; together that is $945.51 a month before HO-6 insurance, electricity, mosquito control and any non-ad valorem charge on the tax bill. Add $135 a month for a 25-foot slip on an annual lease. Insurance premiums vary by carrier, coverage and unit and are not estimated here.
Anglers Cove’s House Rules, adopted by the board on 2023-07-27 and published on the association’s website, govern renovations, construction hours, parking, grills, window coverings, locks, guests and fines. A unit owner can be fined $100 a day per violation, up to $1,000, even when a guest, renter or rental agent commits the violation.
Any alteration to a unit or its limited common elements needs the board’s prior written approval, with drawings or written descriptions, and the association has adopted specifications for floor coverings, window treatments, screen enclosures, screen doors and hurricane shutters. The House Rules add that “City permits are also required for most alterations or modifications,” and the office must receive a copy of the permit before work starts (House Rules).
Construction and renovation noise is allowed Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. only, and no construction is permitted for two weeks over Christmas and one week over Easter. That is narrower than the City of Marco Island’s own rule, which bars construction from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. and on Sundays and holidays (Marco Island Code of Ordinances, Municode). Plan a renovation schedule around both.
Under the House Rules, covered parking spaces are “privately owned and reserved,” marked with the unit number on the parking bumper, and the owner can have an unauthorized vehicle towed. Commercial vehicles (over 21 feet, more than four tires on the ground, wider than 82 inches, carrying ladders or tools, or with business lettering) may not park on the property from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. Overnight trailer parking is not allowed, except a two-night exception for moving or removing a watercraft. Car washing is allowed only in the designated car wash area.
When the owner is in residence with immediate family, occupancy is not restricted. When the owner is not in residence, overnight occupants are limited to five people, including children, in a one-bedroom unit and six in a two-bedroom unit.
Anglers Cove allows rentals under its own rules: stays of 90 days or less must be registered with the office before arrival on the association’s short-term rental form, and leases of three months or longer, up to twelve months, need approval by the board or management with a tenant application, screening and a fee. Subletting by tenants is not permitted.
The association’s short-term rental form says it “MUST BE USED TO REGISTER SHORT TERM RENTALS (90 DAYS AND UNDER),” naming the rental agent or owner, every lessee, the number of guests and the vehicles, with the renter’s signature agreeing to the rules (short-term rental form). The association’s home page repeats the requirement: “Owners and Short-Term Renters Must Register Prior To Their Arrival.” The published documents state no minimum stay; the recorded Declaration is the document that would carry one, so read it in the resale package.
For leases of three months or longer the House Rules quote Declaration Section 16.1: the board “has the authority to approve or disapprove all leases of three (3) months or longer,” may require an interview, and may run a criminal background check. The published screening criteria cover credit (a score of 600 or lower is flagged), criminal history, rental history, employment and any falsified application, and occupancy is capped under the Collier County housing code at 200 square feet for the first occupant and 150 for each additional one. The annual lease procedures say the board president has six business days to issue a certificate of approval once the complete application is in (annual lease procedures). A lease may not run past 12 months, and renewals must be requested before the lease ends (60 days in the House Rules, 30 days on the 2020 application form).
The House Rules say that if owners rent their unit, “they give up their right to use the common-area facilities during the tenure of the lease,” including the pools, spas, tennis courts, decks, overnight parking and social room. That matters to an owner who plans to rent part of the season and use the unit the rest.
The City of Marco Island has no enforceable vacation rental registration program: Resolution 23-54, adopted 2023-10-02, declared the 2022 rental registration ordinance null and void after the Legislature passed Senate Bill 250 in 2023 (City of Marco Island Resolution 23-54). Florida law bars local governments from prohibiting vacation rentals or regulating their duration or frequency under ordinances adopted after June 1, 2011 (Fla. Stat. 509.032). That preemption limits the City, not the association: condominium documents can restrict rentals on their own, which is why the Anglers Cove rules above are the ones that govern. Transient rentals also owe state sales tax and the Collier County tourist development tax collected by the Tax Collector (Collier County Tax Collector, tourist development tax).
No. Anglers Cove’s House Rules, adopted 2023-07-27, state: “Pets are not allowed anywhere on Association property or in units.” The association’s annual lease application repeats it in capitals: “PETS ARE NOT ALLOWED AT ANY TIME ON THE PREMISES.” A buyer with a pet should look elsewhere on Marco Island.
A request to keep an assistance animal as a reasonable accommodation for a disability is handled under the federal Fair Housing Act and Florida law, not under a pet rule, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development publishes the federal guidance on how housing providers assess those requests (HUD, assistance animals). Any such request goes to the association in writing.
No age restriction appears in the association’s published documents; the association calls itself “a family-friendly community,” and the pool rules provide for children under 12 with adult supervision. The Housing for Older Persons Act exemption does not appear in any document we read.
Anglers Cove sits in FEMA flood zone AE with a base flood elevation of 8 feet NAVD88 at all three building addresses we tested, on FIRM panel 12021C0828J effective 2024-02-08, outside the Coastal Barrier Resources System, and in Collier County storm surge evacuation zone A. The ground at those points is about 4.4 to 4.7 feet NAVD88.
| Address tested | FEMA zone | Base flood elevation | FIRM panel and effective date | Ground elevation (USGS 3DEP) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1024 Anglers Cove | AE (coastal floodplain) | 8 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0828J, 2024-02-08 | 4.7 ft NAVD88 |
| 1012 Anglers Cove | AE (coastal floodplain) | 8 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0828J, 2024-02-08 | 4.7 ft NAVD88 |
| 1003 Anglers Cove | AE (coastal floodplain) | 8 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0828J, 2024-02-08 | 4.4 ft NAVD88 |
Method: each address was geocoded with the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder and tested against the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, with ground elevation read from the USGS 3D Elevation Program and the Coastal Barrier Resources System checked on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service mapper, on 2026-10-07 (FEMA Flood Map Service Center; USGS 3D Elevation Program; USFWS CBRS mapper). A geocoded point can fall on the street rather than the building, so this is a map indication, not a flood determination; the building’s Elevation Certificate and the FEMA address search give the structure’s own zone.
At the three points the ground sits 3.3 to 3.6 feet below the 8-foot base flood elevation (8.0 minus 4.7 is 3.3; 8.0 minus 4.4 is 3.6). The buildings date from 1982 and 1986, decades before the current map took effect, so the elevation of each building’s lowest floor comes from its Elevation Certificate, which the association or the City floodplain office can supply. The City of Marco Island’s flood code requires new or substantially improved construction to put the lowest floor at the higher of base flood elevation plus one foot or the road-crown tests in the code, and treats work at 50 percent of a structure’s market value, counted cumulatively over 12 months, as a substantial improvement (City of Marco Island floodplain documents).
Irma made its final U.S. landfall near Marco Island at 3:30 p.m. EDT as a category 3 hurricane; a spotter on the island measured a 936.9 millibar pressure and 97-knot sustained wind, and the Marco Island Police Department recorded a 113-knot gust. The USGS sensor at Tigertail Beach recorded a storm tide of 5.20 feet NAVD88, and the National Hurricane Center put inundation from Marco Island north to Fort Myers at 3 to 5 feet above ground (NHC Tropical Cyclone Report, Irma).
Ian made landfall at Cayo Costa, far north of Marco, but the National Hurricane Center put maximum inundation at 4 to 6 feet above ground from Marco Island through Everglades City, with a surveyed high water mark of 4.71 feet above ground (6.99 feet NAVD88) on Marco Island and a storm tide of 7.38 feet NAVD88 at the Marco Island USGS sensor (NHC Tropical Cyclone Report, Ian). The National Weather Service Miami summary lists Marco Island damage at $256 million in its Collier County table (NWS Miami, Hurricane Ian summary). We found no public record of Ian damage specific to Anglers Cove; ask the association for its post-Ian repair and insurance history.
Hurricane Helene in September 2024 brought 2 to 4 feet of inundation above ground to areas including Marco Island, and Hurricane Milton in October 2024 brought 3 to 5 feet from Bonita Beach through Marco Island, per the National Hurricane Center (NHC report, Helene; NHC report, Milton). The City’s manager told NBC2 the island saw about 2 feet of surge in Milton under a mandatory evacuation notice (NBC2, 2024-10-11).
Street flooding is a separate risk from storm surge. NBC2 reported on 2025-09-10 that local workers called Bald Eagle Drive “particularly prone to flooding,” with vehicle damage from driving through standing water (NBC2, 2025-09-10), and on 2024-06-13 the City manager described localized flooding of roads “when there’s a lot of rain and high tides” (NBC2, 2024-06-13). Anglers Cove’s access is off that corridor. Sellers pricing a unit with a flood history can start with a free valuation; buyers who want the flood records read with them can book a buyer consultation.
An Anglers Cove owner carries an HO-6 unit-owner policy for the inside of the unit and personal liability, while the association insures the buildings under its master policy and passes that cost through the condo fee. Flood is a separate peril from wind and homeowners coverage.
Florida’s insurer of last resort, Citizens Property Insurance, must require flood insurance on most personal residential policies, phased in by replacement cost, but the statute exempts “Policies that provide coverage under a condominium unit owners form,” so a Citizens HO-6 on an Anglers Cove unit does not trigger the requirement; a Citizens policy on a condominium association’s building does (Fla. Stat. 627.351). A lender may still require flood coverage on a unit in zone AE.
FEMA’s FloodSmart site says premiums for most policyholders cannot rise more than 18 to 25 percent a year, adds an 18 percent Reserve Fund Assessment, a $25 or $250 HFIAA surcharge (primary residence or not) and a federal policy fee, and lets a buyer “may be able to assume the prior owner’s current NFIP policy” (FEMA FloodSmart, premium costs; FEMA FloodSmart, flood zones). FEMA’s Community Rating System list effective October 1, 2026 shows the City of Marco Island (community 120426) at CRS Class 5, a 25 percent discount on eligible flood insurance premiums in the special flood hazard area, current since October 1, 2023 (FEMA, CRS eligible communities, October 2026); zone AE at Anglers Cove is inside that area.
Florida requires insurers to offer actuarially reasonable discounts for wind-resistant features such as roof strength, roof-to-wall connections and opening protection (Fla. Stat. 627.0629), documented on the state’s uniform mitigation verification form (Fla. Stat. 627.711; Rule 69O-170.0155). For a mid-rise condominium most of those features belong to the building, so the credits show up on the association’s master policy, not on the HO-6. The My Safe Florida Home grant program covers owner-occupied homesteaded homes up to three stories, which leaves five-story Anglers Cove buildings outside its standard program (Fla. Stat. 215.5586).
Since October 1, 2024, a Florida seller of residential property must give the buyer a flood disclosure at or before contract, and the 2025 amendment added whether the seller knows of flood damage during ownership, has filed a flood claim, or has received flood assistance (Fla. Stat. 689.302). An Anglers Cove seller completes it for the unit.
Anglers Cove’s twelve buildings are five stories, built in 1982 and 1986, so under Florida law each reached 30 years before July 1, 2022 and owed its initial milestone structural inspection before December 31, 2024, plus a structural integrity reserve study (SIRS) by December 31, 2025. The City of Marco Island’s records show the phase one milestone reports for all twelve buildings accepted, with no phase two required; whether the SIRS is complete is not published.
Florida Statute 553.899 requires a milestone inspection of every condominium building three habitable stories or more by December 31 of the year it turns 30, and every 10 years after; buildings that reached 30 before July 1, 2022 had until December 31, 2024. A phase one visual inspection comes first; phase two testing follows only if substantial structural deterioration is found, and the association must send owners the inspector’s summary within 45 days of receiving the report (Fla. Stat. 553.899). By the county’s year-built dates, the 1982 buildings turned 30 in 2012 and the 1986 buildings in 2016. A local building official may set the first inspection at 25 years for buildings within three miles of the coastline; we have not confirmed from a City ordinance whether Marco Island applies that option, and for buildings of this age it does not change the deadline.
On Marco Island the City, not Collier County, holds the milestone reports. Its public permit portal lists twelve phase one cases for Anglers Cove, MS-23-05541 to MS-23-05552, one for each building from A (1031 Anglers Cove) to N (995 Anglers Cove), received August 14, 2023 and finalized October 1, 2024 with the status “phase one report accepted”; the engineer of record is SOCOTEC Consulting (Felix M. Anton, PE), and no phase two case was opened for any building (City of Marco Island Civic Access, permit and milestone records). Accepted means the City took the report as complete; it is not a repair warranty, so a buyer still reads the summary, the reserve schedule and the board minutes. Recent building-wide permits include floating docks (2025) and aluminum flood panels at seven openings of 999 Anglers Cove (finaled September 2025).
A residential condominium association must have a SIRS at least every 10 years for each building three habitable stories or higher, covering the roof, structure, fireproofing, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and painting, windows and exterior doors, and items over $25,000; existing associations owed the first study by December 31, 2025, or by December 31, 2026 if done together with a milestone inspection due by then (Fla. Stat. 718.112). Associations report SIRS completion to the state, and the Division publishes the submissions (DBPR SIRS reporting).
For budgets adopted on or after December 31, 2024, a unit-owner-controlled association required to have a SIRS may not vote to provide no reserves or reduced reserves for the SIRS items, and a special assessment, line of credit or loan to fund them needs a majority of the total voting interests (Fla. Stat. 718.112). This is the single biggest change in the economics of a 1982 Florida condominium, and the reason a buyer reads the reserve schedule, not just the monthly fee.
Florida law entitles a resale buyer, at the seller’s expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual budget and financial statement, the milestone inspection summary if applicable, the most recent SIRS or a statement that none has been completed, and the frequently asked questions document, and gives the buyer 7 days, excluding weekends and legal holidays, to cancel after receiving them (Fla. Stat. 718.503). An owner can inspect the association’s official records under Fla. Stat. 718.111. Ask specifically for the milestone summary, the SIRS, the current reserve schedule, any special assessment adopted or proposed, and the last two years of board minutes.
Anglers Cove is served by Collier County Public Schools. Marco Island has one district elementary school, Tommie Barfield Elementary, and two charter schools, Marco Island Charter Middle and Marco Island Academy; the district’s attendance maps place the island in the Manatee Middle and Lely High zones.
| School | Address | Type | Florida grade, 2025-26 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tommie Barfield Elementary | 101 Kirkwood St, Marco Island | District | A |
| Marco Island Charter Middle | 1401 Trinidad Ave, Marco Island | Charter | A |
| Marco Island Academy | 2255 San Marco Rd, Marco Island | Charter high | A |
Addresses are from the Florida Department of Education school directory (FLDOE Collier directory); grades are from the Collier County Public Schools 2026 accountability brief (CCPS 2025-26 grades).
The district’s 2026-27 attendance boundary maps place Marco Island in the Manatee Middle School and Lely High School zones (CCPS attendance boundaries). That is a map reading at county scale; confirm the zone for a specific Anglers Cove address with the district’s interactive zoning tool (CCPS zoning tool). The two charter schools enroll by application, not by zone.
Anglers Cove is inside the City of Marco Island, so building permits, flood rules, dock and seawall rules, noise limits and code enforcement come from the City, not from Collier County. The City adopted its current flood damage prevention ordinance in 2024 alongside the FEMA map effective 2024-02-08.
A renovation that needs a permit goes through City of Marco Island Building Services, and the association requires a copy of the permit before work begins. Under the City’s flood code a project costing 50 percent or more of the building’s market value within 12 months is a substantial improvement that must meet current flood elevation rules, which for a 1980s ground-floor unit can change what is buildable (Marco Island Code of Ordinances).
The City’s code limits dock protrusion, sets reflector and house-number rules, keeps a 10-foot seagrass buffer, and bars renting dock space in residential districts, and its seawall rules require a permit application within 60 days of notice of a failed seawall (Marco Island Code, Chapters 6 and 54). Anglers Cove’s slips are an association marina governed by its own lease and a state-approved wet slip agreement; the Florida Department of Environmental Protection holds an environmental resource permit file for the association (FDEP facility ERP_174122).
The City bans fertilizer from June 1 to September 30 and within 10 feet of water or a seawall, limits construction to 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. outside Sundays and holidays, and protects burrowing owl burrows with a 33-foot no-parking buffer during nesting season from February 15 to July 10 (City of Marco Island, burrowing owl notice).
Marco Island voters approved a $23 million general obligation bond on 2026-08-18 by 2,259 votes to 2,258, certified on 2026-08-26, to replace the Caxambas and Goldenrod bridges, repair three others and repave streets, with repayment over up to 20 years (WGCU, 2026-08-26). Any debt-service millage will appear on future tax bills; the rate was not set as of 2026-10-07.
Daily life at Anglers Cove runs through the association office for registration, keys and mail, with dumpsters on the property, mailboxes beside the building elevators, and the island’s beaches, grocery stores and urgent care a short drive away on Collier Boulevard. There is no hospital emergency department on Marco Island.
Mailboxes are next to the building elevators, and each owner holds a key; the office keeps a key to every box. Household trash goes in heavy bags to the dumpsters around the property, and an overloaded dumpster raises shared costs, so owners use the next one. Luggage carts sit by the ground-floor elevators. A locked-out occupant gets help from the office during office hours; after hours the occupant uses a locksmith from the association’s list.
Anglers Cove is on the river side of the island, so beach days start with a drive. Tigertail Beach is a Collier County park with a $10 daily parking fee for non-permit holders per the City (the County lists $8), restrooms and rentals; South Marco Beach has about 70 spaces off South Collier Boulevard (City of Marco Island beach access; Collier County Marco Island beaches).

Anglers Cove and Riverside Club are the two large 1980s condominiums on the Marco River side of Bald Eagle Drive, and they price very differently: in the 12 months to 2026-10-07 Anglers Cove’s median MLS sale was $350,000 against Riverside Club’s $517,500. Anglers Cove is the smaller-unit, lower-price building with its own leased marina; Riverside Club is larger per unit and costs more.

The third condominium on this stretch, Pier 81, is a different product: 76 units in two towers at 1069 and 1079 Bald Eagle Drive, built 2001 to 2002, with units of 1,995 to 2,979 heated square feet (county roll) and listing-entered fees of about $25,000 a year. Its association site describes two pools, two Har-Tru tennis courts, a clubhouse, a gated entrance and a secure garage overlooking “the beautiful Marco River” (Pier 81 Condominium Association). A buyer who wants more space than Anglers Cove offers can compare Riverside Club, and one who wants newer construction can compare Pier 81. The whole island is mapped in our Marco Island guide, and our Naples versus Marco Island comparison covers the mainland alternative.

Anglers Cove’s strengths are price, water, the marina and a full amenity set on thirteen acres; its weaknesses are small units, a strict no-pet rule, 1980s buildings under Florida’s new inspection and reserve laws, and a flood zone AE site on a road the local press calls prone to street flooding.
If you’re searching for an Anglers Cove listing agent, or thinking, ‘I need someone to sell my Anglers Cove home…’, McGreevy and Comisar are the team to call. Anglers Cove recorded 20 closings in the 12 months to 2026-10-07 at a median of $350,000, and the median one closed at 93.7 percent of its final asking price.
In the last 12 months we tracked 20 Anglers Cove resales on the Southwest Florida MLS: $7,202,900 in total volume, a median sale of $350,000, a median of 94 days on market across the 19 sales with a recorded marketing period, and a median sale-to-final-list ratio of 93.7 percent. None of the 20 was entered after closing.
Selling here is a pricing exercise against your neighbours. With eleven units listed and about 6.6 months of supply on 2026-10-07, a buyer can compare your unit with ten others in the same complex on the same afternoon, so floor plan, renovation and view have to be priced unit by unit. Three Anglers Cove specifics shape a sale: the no-pet rule narrows the buyer pool, so the listing should reach buyers who already accept it; the association office and Resort Management handle registration and estoppels, so order the estoppel early; and buyers will ask about the milestone inspection, the structural integrity reserve study and any special assessment, so have the association’s documents in hand before the first showing.
Start with our free online valuation at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation, and we will build your number from the Anglers Cove sales of your floor plan, not the building median. Or talk to Jesse direct: (239) 898-6072, text or call. Buyers can reach Marc at (239) 287-5873 or book a buyer consultation.
The median Anglers Cove sale in the 12 months to 2026-10-07 took 94 days on the market, across the 19 sales with a recorded marketing period, with a range from 3 days to 550 days (Southwest Florida MLS). Units priced near recent sales of the same floor plan sold fastest.
Rarely. The median Anglers Cove sale closed at 93.7 percent of its final list price in the 12 months to 2026-10-07, and only one of 20 sold at or above its final ask (Southwest Florida MLS).
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, and the seller customarily pays the documentary stamp tax on the deed; the signed contract controls on every sale.
No. Anglers Cove slips are leased by the association to owners and tenants year to year under the House Rules, not deeded to units, so a slip lease does not pass to your buyer; your buyer applies to the association.
Florida law requires the seller to provide the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual budget and financial statement, the milestone inspection summary if applicable, the latest structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none exists, and the frequently asked questions document (Fla. Stat. 718.503).
Only selectively. In the last 12 months, units of the same size sold up to $200,000 apart, which shows buyers pay for condition, but every alteration needs board approval and most need a City permit, and work is limited to weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The questions below come from the search terms people use for Anglers Cove and Marco Island condominiums, rewritten as plain questions. Every answer comes from the records cited on this page.
Anglers Cove is a 320-unit condominium of twelve five-story buildings on about thirteen acres on the Marco River at the north end of Marco Island, Florida, at 995 to 1031 Anglers Cove. It was built from 1982 to 1986 and has two pools, two spas, two tennis courts, a 31-slip marina and an on-site tiki restaurant.
Anglers Cove is on the north-east, Marco River side of Marco Island, recorded by the state at Bald Eagle Drive and North Barfield Drive, in ZIP 34145 inside the City of Marco Island and Collier County, a short drive from the Jolley Bridge to the mainland.
In the 12 months to 2026-10-07, 20 Anglers Cove units sold on the Southwest Florida MLS at a median of $350,000, from $290,000 to $500,000. On 2026-10-07, eleven units were listed at $295,000 to $599,000.
Listing agents entered annual condo fees of $8,560 to $8,668 on all eleven Anglers Cove units for sale on 2026-10-07, about $722 a month. Those are listing-entered figures; the association’s budget is in the resale documents and on the estoppel certificate.
Yes. The association leases 31 boat slips and 6 wave runner slips to owners and tenants, in lengths of 20, 25, 31 and 40 feet, at $5.40 per foot per month on a prepaid one-year lease under the 2023 House Rules. Slips are not deeded to units.
No. Anglers Cove is on the Marco River, on the bay side of the island. The association describes Gulf of Mexico fishing and boating access, and the Gulf beaches are a drive away.
No. The 2023 House Rules say pets are not allowed anywhere on association property or in units. Assistance animal requests are a separate fair housing matter.
Yes, within the association’s rules: stays of 90 days or less are registered with the office before arrival, and leases of three to twelve months need board or management approval, an application fee and screening. Tenants may not sublet.
The association’s published forms register rentals of 90 days and under without stating a minimum stay, and the City of Marco Island has no rental registration program in force. Read the recorded Declaration in the resale package for any minimum lease term before you buy for rental income.
Every Anglers Cove unit is 717, 732, 802 or 852 heated square feet on the Collier County roll. The 717 and 732 square foot plans are one-bedroom units and the 802 and 852 square foot plans are two-bedroom units.
The Collier County roll gives a year built of 1982 for ten of the twelve buildings and 1986 for 995 and 999 Anglers Cove. The state registered the condominium on 1982-01-27, and the association was incorporated on 1980-01-14.
Anglers Cove has 320 units; the Collier County roll and the state condominium register agree.
FEMA zone AE with a base flood elevation of 8 feet NAVD88 at three building addresses, on FIRM panel 12021C0828J effective 2024-02-08. A lender may require flood insurance on a unit in zone AE.
Yes. The building addresses fall in Collier County storm surge evacuation zone A, so follow county evacuation orders for zone A when a storm threatens.
Yes. The City of Marco Island accepted the phase one milestone reports for all twelve Anglers Cove buildings, finalized October 1, 2024, and no phase two inspection was required. Ask for the inspector’s summary, which the seller must provide.
No special assessment is published on the association’s public website. The estoppel certificate and the board minutes show any adopted or proposed assessment; request both before your inspection period ends.
Tommie Barfield Elementary is the island’s district elementary school, and district maps place Marco Island in the Manatee Middle and Lely High zones; Marco Island Charter Middle and Marco Island Academy enroll by application. Confirm a specific address with the district’s zoning tool.
The association runs an on-site office at 999 Anglers Cove, and its website routes owner logins and estoppel requests to Resort Management. The association itself is Anglers Cove Condominium Association, Inc.
Yes. The Dolphin Tiki Bar and Grill operates on the property at 1021 Anglers Cove, overlooking the water.
Yes. Covered parking spaces are privately owned, reserved and marked with the unit number on the bumper under the House Rules; the resale documents show which space belongs to a unit.
No. The association calls itself a family-friendly community, and no age restriction appears in its published documents.
Lenders review the condominium project as well as the buyer, looking at reserves, insurance, litigation and any special assessment; ask your lender early whether it will lend at Anglers Cove and what association documents it needs.
These are the questions Anglers Cove owners ask when they decide to sell, answered from the Southwest Florida MLS, the Collier County roll, Florida statute text and the association’s own rules.
Start from the sales of your floor plan: in the 12 months to 2026-10-07 the median of the eight 717 square foot sales was $330,000, the four 732 square foot sales $311,250, the two 802 square foot sales $402,450, and the six 852 square foot sales $400,000, each a median of that small group only.
Twenty Anglers Cove units closed in the 12 months to 2026-10-07 at a median of $350,000, a range of $290,000 to $500,000 and a total of $7,202,900 (Southwest Florida MLS).
Eleven were listed and none pending on 2026-10-07, asking $295,000 to $599,000, which is about 6.6 months of supply at the last 12 months’ pace.
The median Anglers Cove sale in the last 12 months took 94 days on the market across 19 sales with a recorded marketing period; the range ran from 3 to 550 days.
The median sale closed at 93.7 percent of its final list price in the 12 months to 2026-10-07; one of 20 sold at or above the final ask.
Yes, from the 2023 peak: the calendar-year median was $430,000 in 2023, $411,000 in 2024, $350,000 in 2025 and $356,250 in 2026 to 2026-10-07 (Southwest Florida MLS).

The published House Rules require board approval for leases, not for sales; the recorded Declaration governs any approval of a sale or transfer, so read it or ask the association office before you list.
Florida caps the fee at $250 when nothing is owed, plus $100 for delivery within three business days and up to $150 more if the account is delinquent, subject to inflation adjustment; Anglers Cove estoppels are ordered through Resort Management’s online form.
Ten business days from the request under Fla. Stat. 718.116, and the certificate is effective for 30 days when delivered by hand or electronically.
The seller customarily pays deed stamps of 70 cents per $100 of price under Fla. Stat. 201.02, which is $2,450 on a $350,000 Anglers Cove sale; the contract controls.
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays the owner’s title policy and chooses the title agent; the signed contract decides on every sale.
The declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual budget and financial statement, the milestone inspection summary if applicable, the latest structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none exists, the frequently asked questions document and the governance form, under Fla. Stat. 718.503.
Florida gives a resale buyer 7 days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, to cancel after signing and receiving the required documents, and any waiver of that right has no effect.
Yes. Since October 1, 2024, Florida requires the seller to give a flood disclosure at or before contract, covering known flood damage, flood claims and flood assistance received.
Buyers and lenders ask for both. The City accepted the phase one milestone reports for all twelve Anglers Cove buildings in 2024 with no phase two required, and the association owed its structural integrity reserve study by December 31, 2025; have the summaries and the reserve schedule ready before you list.
The purchase contract allocates it; under Fla. Stat. 718.116 a buyer becomes jointly and severally liable with the previous owner for assessments due before closing, which is why the estoppel certificate is read before closing.
Yes, but the lease and the association’s approval of that tenant come with the sale, and tenants may not sublet; confirm the lease end date against the buyer’s plans before you list.
It narrows the buyer pool to people without pets, which is one reason pricing has to be precise; it also means buyers who choose Anglers Cove usually want exactly that rule.
Not directly. Slips are leased by the association year to year, not deeded, so a slip does not transfer with the unit; a buyer who wants one applies to the association waitlist.
Fix what a buyer’s inspector will flag and what photographs poorly; any alteration needs board approval, most need a City of Marco Island permit, and work is limited to weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Yes, on the front entry door only; the House Rules prohibit lockboxes on the walkway railings in front of units listed for sale or rent.
Yes. In the 12 months to 2026-10-07 the eight two-bedroom sales had a median of $400,000 and the twelve one-bedroom sales a median of $312,500.
Not reliably in the last 12 months: the five fifth-floor sales had a median of $305,000 and the five second-floor sales $370,000, so condition and size mattered more than height.
A buyer’s assessment resets to just value the year after purchase, and the 2025 confirmed millage for a standard Marco Island parcel was 8.9535 mills, or $895.35 per $100,000 of taxable value, before the mosquito control levy.
Yes. Short stays of 90 days or less are registered with the office and leases of three to twelve months are approved by the board or management, which suits an investor buyer, but the owner gives up the amenities while the unit is rented.

That depends on your plans, your unit and the supply around you: with about 6.6 months of supply and a 12-month median of $350,000 on 2026-10-07, buyers have choice, so a well-priced unit competes best when fewer neighbours are listed.
$500,000, for an 852 square foot two-bedroom unit at 1003 Anglers Cove that closed on 2026-07-01 (Southwest Florida MLS).
$290,000, for a 732 square foot one-bedroom unit at 1012 Anglers Cove that closed on 2026-07-15 (Southwest Florida MLS).
The MLS figures on this page do not separate cash from financed sales, so we do not state a share; at a $350,000 median, both are common, and a financed buyer’s lender will review the association.
Approval rules in the published documents cover tenants, not buyers; the recorded Declaration governs any approval of a purchaser, so confirm the association’s process early and build it into the contract timeline.
