The Apollo is a 10-story beachfront condominium tower at 900 South Collier Boulevard, inside the Marco Island gulf-front condo corridor of Marco Island, Florida. It holds 90 residences, most of them 504-square-foot one-bedroom suites, plus an on-site beachfront restaurant, the Sunset Grille, which makes it the corridor’s most rental-oriented building and its lowest-priced way onto the beach. If you are deciding 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.
The Apollo is a single 1990 high-rise condominium on Marco Island’s Gulf beach, recorded as The Apollo, a Condominium, with 90 residential units: 72 one-bedroom suites of 504 square feet and 18 three-bedroom end units of 1,288 square feet on the Collier County roll. Its own website calls it “a ten-story oceanfront residence featuring 90 meticulously maintained units.”
The association describes floor plans “ranging from intimate 504-square-foot one-bedroom suites to spacious 1,400-square-foot three-bedroom residences,” “All Ocean Views,” and “direct access to the pristine white sands of Marco Island’s beaches” (Apollo Condominium Association). The Florida Division of Condominiums lists the condominium as “APOLLO, A CONDO, THE,” project PR1S019906, 90 units, declaration recorded 1990-10-24 (Florida DBPR condominium extract). Everything else on this page comes from the Southwest Florida MLS pulled on 2026-10-07, the Collier County roll, the City of Marco Island’s own permit, milestone and map records, the association’s own published rules, federal flood and storm records and Florida statute text.
The Apollo is on the Gulf side of South Collier Boulevard at the south end of the beachfront corridor, between Sea Winds at 890 South Collier and Dela Park Place at 1020 South Collier by street number. The City of Marco Island’s parcel map puts the center of the Apollo’s master parcel at latitude 25.91289, longitude -81.72754 (City of Marco Island GIS map service), and the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder places the street address at latitude 25.91464, longitude -81.72679, a street-segment estimate about 190 meters north of the parcel (Census geocoder). The South Marco Beach public access is at 930 South Collier Boulevard, just south of the building by address (Gulfshore Life, South Marco Beach Access).

The Collier County roll lists 96 parcels under the condominium name, and the City’s parcel map shows why: alongside the 90 residential units there are six commercial condominium units on the ground floor, the largest a 6,000 square foot unit that matches the Sunset Grille’s suite, plus a master parcel for the common elements (City of Marco Island GIS map service). The state record and the association both count 90 homes, and that is the number this page uses for the building.
The Division of Corporations also lists The Apollo Condominium Inc., a 1967 association in Miami Beach, which is not this building (Florida Division of Corporations). This page covers only the Marco Island tower at 900 South Collier Boulevard, operated by The Apollo Condominium Association, Inc., document N24149.

The Apollo suits a buyer who wants a beachfront condo on Marco Island at the lowest entry price on the corridor, often to use part of the year and rent the rest, and who is happy with a compact one-bedroom suite. It does not suit a buyer with a pet, a buyer who wants a quiet, owner-only building, or one who needs more than about 1,300 square feet.
The record describes the buyer by what the building offers. Eleven of the 14 MLS closings in the last 60 months were 504 square foot one-bedroom, one-bath suites, and the City’s parcel records show only 3 of the 90 residential units carrying a homestead exemption, about 3 percent (City of Marco Island GIS map service). The association’s own site says “all units are privately owned and individually managed” and points visitors to a vacation rental listing to book a stay. This is a building of second homes and short-stay rentals, not of full-time residents.
What The Apollo gives you is the beach, the Gulf view from every unit, a heated pool and spa, tennis, a fitness room, a front desk and a restaurant downstairs, for a 60-month median sale of $776,000 (Southwest Florida MLS, to 2026-10-07). What you give up is space: 72 of the 90 homes are 504 square feet, so the price per square foot is high, about $1,498, and a family needs one of the 18 three-bedroom end units. The Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey puts the median value of an owner-occupied home in the City of Marco Island at $896,300 (U.S. Census QuickFacts, Marco Island city), so an Apollo suite costs less than the typical island home, on the sand.
We tracked every Apollo closing on the Southwest Florida MLS for the five years to 2026-10-07, 14 closings in all, and read them against the qualified recorded sales in the Collier County roll data, the City’s permit and milestone records and the association’s posted rules. Three things stood out. First, the one-bedroom suite is a near-commodity: eleven sales in five years, all between $690,000 and $802,000, so the price of the next one is unusually easy to read. Second, a meaningful share of Apollo sales never reach the MLS, which we explain in the market section. Third, the building’s engineering record is public and clean: its Phase 1 milestone report was accepted with no substantial structural deterioration.
The Apollo recorded 14 closed sales on the Southwest Florida MLS in the 60 months to 2026-10-07, at a median of $776,000 and a range of $690,000 to $1,878,000. The 12-month window held four closings, the 24-month window six and the 36-month window seven, so the 60-month window is the first to hold ten or more and it leads every figure below.
Data updated: October 2026. All MLS figures are for the 60 months to 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS, unless another window is named.
| Measure | Figure | Count behind it |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 14 | 14 |
| Median sale price | $776,000 | 14 sales |
| Lowest and highest sale | $690,000 to $1,878,000 | 14 sales |
| Dollar volume | $13,455,999 | 14 sales |
| Median price per square foot | about $1,498 | 14 sales |
| Median days on market | 45 | 14 sales |
| Median sale to final list price | 96.4 percent | 14 sales |
| Sales entered after closing (Sold Data Entry) | 0 | 14 sales |
With 14 sales the median is the average of the 7th and 8th prices, $775,000 and $777,000. Price per square foot is each sale’s price divided by its MLS square footage, then the median of those 14 ratios. No sale in the window was entered after closing, so every one counts in days on market and sale to list.

Source: Southwest Florida MLS, closed sales of The Apollo, pulled 2026-10-07. Square footage and bedroom count are as entered in the MLS.
Four Apollo units closed in the 12 months to 2026-10-07, all one-bedroom suites: $802,000, $780,000, $780,000 and $760,000, a total of $3,122,000. The median of those four sales is $780,000, about $1,548 a square foot, with a median of 49.5 days on market and 95.4 percent of final list price. Three of the four closed within ten days of each other in February 2026.
The Collier County roll data dated 2026-08-29 (recorded sales through 2026-08-24) holds 19 qualified, arm’s-length recorded sales of Apollo units in the 60 months to 2026-08-24, at a median of $775,000 and a range of $690,000 to $1,878,000. 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. Five of those 19 deeds do not match any MLS closing in our pull: $735,000 on 2022-03-01, $760,000 on 2022-03-12, $715,000 on 2022-12-12, $795,000 on 2025-09-30, all for 504 square foot suites, and $1,800,000 for a 1,288 square foot three-bedroom on 2024-04-04. In our reading those were sold without an MLS listing, which is why an owner pricing an Apollo unit should look at the deeds as well as the MLS. On one sale the two records differ by a dollar: the county records $1,700,000 for unit 210 on 2023-01-13, where the MLS shows $1,699,999 on 2023-01-20; the county records the deed consideration and the MLS the reported closing price.
Sale to list here means the sale price divided by the final list price, after any price reductions. A median of 96.4 percent means the typical Apollo sale in the 60 months to 2026-10-07 closed about 3.6 percent below its last asking price. The range ran from 93.8 percent, on suite 502 that took 141 days in 2022, to 100.0 percent on three sales that closed at their asking price, the suite 709 in one day and the three-bedroom units 710 and 210.
The 14 sales run from $690,000 to $1,878,000, but that range is really two markets. The 11 one-bedroom suites sold between $690,000 and $802,000, a median of $770,000, and the three three-bedroom end units sold for $1,600,000, $1,699,999 and $1,878,000. Within the suites, the spread from lowest to highest is $112,000, and most of it is time: the four suites sold in 2026 brought $760,000 to $802,000, against $690,000 to $750,000 for the three that sold in late 2021 and early 2022.
The Apollo is a 90-unit 1990 beachfront tower on the Marco Island gulf-front corridor, with a 60-month median sale of $776,000 (Southwest Florida MLS, to 2026-10-07).

The Apollo’s one-bedroom suites moved from a median of $700,000 on the three suites sold in 2022 to a median of $780,000 on the four sold in 2026, about 11.4 percent higher, on very small groups (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled 2026-10-07). The yearly medians below mix one-bedroom and three-bedroom sales, so the suite-only and repeat-sale figures are the better guide.
Data updated: October 2026.
| Year | Closings | Median of that year’s sales | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 | 1 | $694,000 (one sale) | Partial year: 2021-10-07 to 2021-12-31 only |
| 2022 | 4 | $725,000 | $690,000 to $1,600,000 |
| 2023 | 2 | $1,234,999.50 | $770,000 to $1,699,999 |
| 2024 | 2 | $1,326,500 | $775,000 to $1,878,000 |
| 2025 | 1 | $777,000 (one sale) | One sale only |
| 2026 | 4 | $780,000 | $760,000 to $802,000; partial year to 2026-10-07 |
Every yearly group is under ten sales, so each median is the median of those few sales only, and the 2023 and 2024 medians are the average of one suite and one three-bedroom, which is why they look high.
The county’s qualified-sale file lets us follow individual units. Suite 303 sold for $690,000 on the MLS in February 2022 and recorded a deed of $795,000 on 2025-09-30, about 15.2 percent higher. Suite 409 recorded a deed of $735,000 on 2022-03-01 and sold for $780,000 on the MLS in February 2026, about 6.1 percent higher. Suite 207 recorded a deed of $488,000 on 2021-02-10 and sold for $802,000 in February 2026, about 64.3 percent higher across the full post-2020 run. A fourth suite recorded $539,000 on 2020-11-03 and $760,000 on 2022-03-12, about 41.0 percent in 16 months. The pattern is the one we see across Marco’s small-unit beach towers: a steep 2020 to 2022 rise, then slow gains.
The suites’ recent prices are tightly bunched: four 2026 sales between $760,000 and $802,000 and a 2025 deed at $795,000. In our reading that is a stable market for a standard product, with condition and floor deciding where in that band a suite lands, while fees rose by about half over the same five years (see the fee section). The MLS shows the price, not the cause.
The Apollo had one unit listed for sale and none pending on 2026-10-07: suite 606, a 504 square foot one-bedroom asking $820,000, about $1,627 a square foot, listed 254 days. That ask is about 5.1 percent above the $780,000 median of the four suites sold in the last 12 months and $18,000 above the highest of them.
Data updated: October 2026. Active and pending listings as of 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS.
| Status | Unit | Sq ft | Beds | List price | List $/sq ft | Days on market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Active | 606 | 504 | 1 Bed | $820,000 | $1,627 | 254 |
Square footage and days on market are as entered by the listing agent.
One active listing against 14 sales in 60 months (about 0.23 sales a month) is about 4.3 months of supply. One listing out of 90 homes is about 1 percent of the building, which is thin. A buyer who wants a three-bedroom end unit had none to choose from on the MLS on 2026-10-07; the last three-bedroom MLS sale was in January 2024, and the county recorded a private three-bedroom sale at $1,800,000 in April 2024.
At $820,000 the listed suite asks more than any Apollo suite has sold for on the MLS in five years, and it had been on the market 254 days on 2026-10-07. Suites listed near the achieved band of $760,000 to $802,000 have sold quickly: suite 404 in one day and suite 503 in three. An asking price is not a sale; the closed sales above are the evidence a lender’s appraiser will use.
The Apollo has two plans. Stacks 02 to 09 on each residential floor are 504 square foot one-bedroom, one-bath suites, 72 in all, and stacks 01 and 10, the end units, are 1,288 square foot three-bedroom, two-bath residences, 18 in all, on the Collier County roll (City of Marco Island GIS map service).
| Plan | Sq ft as entered | Units on the roll | Closings, 60 months | Median of those sales | Range | Median $/sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bed, 1 bath suite (stacks 02 to 09) | 504 | 72 | 11 | $770,000 | $690,000 to $802,000 | about $1,528 |
| 3 bed, 2 bath end unit (stacks 01 and 10) | 1,288 | 18 | 3 | $1,699,999 | $1,600,000 to $1,878,000 | about $1,320 |
The 60-month window runs to 2026-10-07. Both groups are under ten sales, so each median is the median of those few sales only. The association describes its three-bedroom residences as 1,400 square feet; the roll and the MLS record 1,288.
Residential units are numbered 201 to 1010, ten to a floor on floors 2 through 10, with the ground floor given over to the lobby, the Sunset Grille, the fitness room, the office and the building’s plant rooms, according to the City’s parcel records and the 2024 milestone report. A suite numbered 205 is on the second floor in the 05 stack; a three-bedroom numbered 710 is on the seventh floor at the end of the building.
Not clearly in the sales we tracked. In 2026 a second-floor suite sold for $802,000 and another second-floor suite for $760,000, with fourth-floor suites at $780,000. Timing and condition explained more of the price than height did, though every unit’s view is of the Gulf.
The three-bedroom end units sold for about 2.2 times the median suite price, $1,699,999 against $770,000, for about 2.6 times the space, so they cost less per square foot: about $1,320 against $1,528. The association caps overnight occupancy at four people in a one-bedroom and seven in a three-bedroom, which is the practical difference for a family or a rental.
The Apollo is one recorded condominium, The Apollo, a Condominium, with one association, incorporated in 1987 and declared a condominium on 1990-10-24. Its construction plans were drawn by Architectural Resources Corporation and dated 1988-05-23, according to the engineer’s 2024 milestone report.
The roll lists 96 parcels under APOLLO, THE A CONDOMINIUM at 900 South Collier Boulevard, all coded as condominium (use code 4), with a year built of 1990 on every unit (Collier County roll data files dated 2026-08-29). The heated areas are 504 square feet on 72 parcels, 1,288 on 18, and 560 to 6,000 on the six commercial units.
The Florida Division of Corporations lists The Apollo Condominium Association, Inc., document N24149, a Florida not-for-profit corporation filed 1987-12-30, status Active, principal address 900 South Collier Boulevard, with annual reports filed every year from 1995 through 2026 and Amended and Restated Articles filed 2005-02-10; its registered agent is a Naples law firm (Florida Division of Corporations).
The Division of Florida Condominiums, Timeshares and Mobile Homes lists project PR1S019906, 90 units, recorded 1990-10-24, status Approved and Recorded, with the association itself as the managing entity at the building address and no outside management company named (Florida DBPR condominium extract).
The declaration’s Official Records book and page were not found for this page, and the association keeps its governing documents behind its owner login. The Collier County Clerk’s Official Records search is the public route to the declaration and every recorded amendment (Collier County Clerk records search), and a resale buyer receives the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules from the seller under Florida law (Fla. Stat. 718.503).
The Apollo is self-managed: the association employs a community association manager on site, the milestone report was addressed to the association’s manager and the 2027 budget notice was issued by that office, and no outside management company appears on the state record, the corporate record or the City’s permits. The front desk registers guests and issues parking permits, according to the association’s rules (Apollo renters information).
The Apollo is a 10-story cast-in-place concrete tower on deep piles, with reinforced masonry exterior walls finished in stucco and a low-slope roof, plus a separate one-story parking structure. The 2024 milestone report and the City’s permit records are the best public window into the building and what has been done to it.
The Phase 1 milestone report prepared by SOCOTEC Consulting for the association, dated 2024-03-05 after a site visit on 2024-01-29, describes a cast-in-place concrete frame on deep piles, concrete floor slabs, reinforced masonry exterior walls with stucco, and a low-slope single-ply roof over lightweight concrete, designed to the Standard Building Code 1985 edition with its 1986 amendments. It notes that no balconies have been enclosed into living space (City of Marco Island Civic Access permit and milestone records).
The City permitted a new fire alarm system between 2016 and 2019 at a recorded valuation of $103,000, sprinkler head replacements for corrosion in 2019, and a 200 kW natural gas generator in the existing generator room with a transfer switch in 2022 at $125,125. A permit valuation is what the applicant declared, not the contract price.
The City permitted elevator cab safety switches and pit lighting, with a new 200-amp panel, in 2016 and 2017 ($27,750). No elevator modernization permit appears in the record we read, so the elevators’ age and condition are a question for the association.
A 2019 permit replaced the carport’s metal roof ($92,000); the parking lot, about 37,480 square feet, was milled and repaved in 2020 ($73,607); and new pavers at the road entry, condo entry and pool deck were permitted in 2025 ($62,125). The tower roof’s last replacement date was not confirmed in the records we read; ask the association.
Between October 2024 and December 2025 the City issued about 75 unit-level permits for impact entry doors, sliding doors and windows across more than 70 units, most reading “like for like with hurricane impact,” by two contractors, with combined declared valuations of about $570,000; whether owners paid unit by unit or through an assessment is not in the permits. The association also permitted 13 common-area impact openings in 2025 ($119,580), a common-area restroom renovation in 2026 ($65,000) and a lobby desk in 2025, and unit-level cast-iron drain stack replacements began in 2026 (City of Marco Island Civic Access permit records).
The City’s records show rooftop telecommunications antennas and a rooftop natural gas generator for the carrier, permitted between 2018 and 2024. A rooftop lease is usually income to the association; its terms were not public.
The Apollo’s amenities, in the association’s own words, are “direct access to the pristine white sands of Marco Island’s beaches, a well-equipped fitness center, a heated swimming pool and spa, and tennis courts,” laundry facilities on every floor, and the Sunset Grille, “an on-site beachfront restaurant” (Apollo Condominium Association).
The pool and spa are open 8:00 a.m. to dusk for residents and guests only; children under 12 must be supervised; the spa’s maximum temperature is 102 degrees and its maximum use 15 minutes; and there is no food, drink or glass in the pool or on the pool deck (Apollo renters information).
The gym is open Monday to Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.; the tennis courts ask players to limit court time to one hour when others are waiting, with a second hour if a court is free, and require tennis shoes.
The Sunset Grille is a beachside bar and restaurant at 900 South Collier Boulevard, Suite 500, in one of the building’s ground-floor commercial units, and the Marco Eagle has reviewed it as a casual spot with Gulf views (Marco Eagle, Sunset Grille, 2024). A restaurant inside the building is unusual on the corridor; it adds convenience and evening activity, and in 2025 the tenant permitted 14 new storefront impact openings and a fire-rated door ($149,181).
Each residential unit has two parking spaces, one assigned space in the covered garage and one around the perimeter of the drive; every vehicle displays a parking tag, and the front-door drive is a 10-minute loading zone. Laundry rooms are on every floor (Apollo renters information).
The Apollo’s association fees, as entered by listing agents on the Southwest Florida MLS, were $13,664 to $14,060 a year on the four 2026 closings, all one-bedroom suites, and $14,064 on the one listing of 2026-10-07. The association’s owner portal says fees are paid quarterly, and its board met on 2026-10-14 to adopt the 2027 budget.
Data updated: October 2026.
| Listing set | Count | Annual fee as entered | Unit size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Active listing, 2026-10-07 | 1 | $14,064 ($1,171.50 a month) | 504 sq ft |
| Closings in 2026 | 4 | $13,664 to $14,060 | 504 sq ft |
| Closings in 2025 | 1 | $13,608 | 504 sq ft |
| Closings in 2024 | 2 | $13,608 (suite) and $18,540 (three-bedroom) | 504 and 1,288 sq ft |
| Closings in 2023 | 2 | $13,092 | 504 and 1,288 sq ft |
| Closings in 2022 | 4 | $9,228 to $12,372 | 504 and 1,288 sq ft |
| Closings in 2021 | 1 | $9,228 ($769 a month) | 504 sq ft |
These are figures as entered by listing agents, not the association’s budget. For a one-bedroom suite they show the annual fee rising from $9,228 on late 2021 and early 2022 sales to $14,060 on 2026 sales, about 52.4 percent in four years. The 2024 entry of $18,540 on a three-bedroom unit is the clearest recent figure for the end units; the same $13,092 was entered on both a suite and a three-bedroom in 2023, so a three-bedroom buyer should confirm the end-unit fee on the estoppel certificate.
The Apollo does not post its budget publicly; its owners’ documents sit behind a login (Apollo owners portal). A Gulf-tower fee typically pays for building insurance, reserves, staff, common-element utilities, elevators, the pool and grounds; at The Apollo the front desk, the security staff and the per-floor laundry rooms belong on that list. Under Florida law a resale buyer is entitled, at the seller’s expense, to the annual budget and annual financial statement (Fla. Stat. 718.503), and the estoppel certificate states the regular assessment and anything owed (Fla. Stat. 718.116). Sellers can get a free valuation that accounts for the fee, and buyers can book a buyer consultation to read the documents with us.
The association’s notice, dated 2026-09-28 and posted 2026-10-01, called a board meeting for 2026-10-14 at 4:00 p.m. at the Apollo office and by Zoom to adopt the 2027 budget (Apollo 2027 budget meeting notice). The adopted 2027 figure was not public when this page was written; a buyer gets it from the estoppel certificate and the budget in the resale package.
At $14,060 a year, the 2026 suite fee is about 1.8 percent of the $780,000 median of the four suites sold in the last 12 months ($14,060 divided by $780,000 is 1.80 percent). On a monthly basis that is about $1,172.
No special assessment at The Apollo appears in any public record we could read, and the association keeps its budgets and minutes behind its owner login. The public record shows a building that has been working through its envelope: a balcony and breezeway waterproofing program the engineer said was scheduled for summer 2024, a 2024 to 2025 wave of impact openings, and 2025 to 2026 common-area work.
The 2024 milestone report states that the association was “currently scheduled for waterproofing replacement across the common breezeways and residential balconies for the summer of 2024.” No City permit for that waterproofing appeared in the address search, which is not unusual for coating work, and its cost and funding were not public.
The City’s records show a balcony and walkway concrete restoration permit applied for in 2012 and completed in 2013 ($44,000), and an earlier concrete restoration of the tennis deck over the parking garage in 2006 and 2007. Concrete restoration on a 1990 beachfront building is routine maintenance; the question for a buyer is how the next round is funded.
Whether the 2024 waterproofing, the impact-opening program or any other project was funded by special assessment, reserves or a loan is a records gap as of 2026-10-28. Ask the association, through the seller, for the current budget and reserve schedule, the adopted 2027 budget, the last two years of board minutes, any assessment adopted or proposed, and any line of credit. Under Florida law a special assessment, line of credit or loan used to fund structural integrity reserve items needs a majority of the total voting interests (Fla. Stat. 718.112).
Owning at The Apollo costs more than the association fee: property tax at the 2025 Marco Island millage, an HO-6 unit-owner policy, the guest parking charges if you rent, state and county rental taxes on short stays, an estoppel fee at sale, and a share of any special assessment. 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, 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 assessment resets to just value the year after purchase; a homestead owner can claim the exemptions in Fla. Stat. 196.031 and the Save Our Homes cap in Fla. Stat. 193.155, and a non-homestead unit’s non-school assessment is capped at 10 percent a year under Fla. Stat. 193.1554. Few Apollo owners are homesteaded, so most pay the non-homestead rate.
Listing agents entered a $100 application fee on Apollo sales through 2024 and $150 on 2025 and 2026 sales. For guests and renters the association takes a parking fee of $45 per vehicle and a $75 hold fee at check-in, by credit card, and may charge the $75 if the transponder is not returned by 10:00 a.m. on departure day (Apollo renters information). Rentals of six months or less also owe state sales tax and the Collier County tourist development tax collected by the Tax Collector (Collier County Tax Collector, tourist development tax).
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 $299 when nothing is delinquent, plus $119 for delivery within three business days and up to $179 more when an account is delinquent, with the caps adjusted for inflation every five years (Fla. Stat. 718.116). 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.
Florida charges documentary stamp tax on a deed at 70 cents per $100 of consideration (Fla. Stat. 201.02), so a $776,000 Apollo sale carries $5,432 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 $620,000 loan that is $2,170 and $1,240. 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 suite with a $780,000 taxable value and the 2026 fee of $14,060 a year: the fee is $1,171.67 a month ($14,060 divided by 12); property tax at 8.9535 mills is $6,983.73 a year, or $581.98 a month; together that is $1,753.64 a month before the HO-6 policy, any flood policy, electricity, the mosquito control levy and any special assessment. Insurance premiums vary by carrier, coverage and unit and are not estimated here, and rental income, if any, is not netted against them.
The Apollo publishes its apartment usage, parking, common area and amenity rules on its website, so a buyer can read the daily rules before making an offer. They are written for a building where most occupants are guests, and they are stricter than many owners expect about cooking, smoking and vehicles.
Everyone staying at The Apollo registers at the front desk on arrival and receives a parking permit. The total number of residents and guests staying overnight in a unit in any 24-hour period may not exceed seven in a three-bedroom unit or four in a one-bedroom unit, and the maximum number of guests who may use the common facilities is two per one-bedroom unit and four per three-bedroom unit. Each unit is “used solely for residential purposes and may not be used for any business or commercial purpose whatsoever” (Apollo renters information).
The Apollo is a smoke-free property, with smoking “not permitted anywhere on the property”; “No barbecuing, food preparation or outdoor cooking of any kind is permitted on condominium property or on the balconies of the units”; towels, garments and rugs may not be hung from balcony railings or windows; and nothing may be thrown from balconies. Drones are not permitted anywhere on the property.
Trucks over 35 feet long, motor homes, jet skis, boats and boat trailers, campers and recreational vehicles are not permitted anywhere on the condominium premises, and no vehicle may be stored there. Owners who live at The Apollo full-time or seasonally and do not rent their unit may leave a registered, insured, drivable vehicle in the covered parking (Apollo renters information).
The association’s renovation and contractor rules are not on its public pages. The City’s record shows routine unit renovation permits at The Apollo, and the 2026 stop-work order issued for a drain stack change made without a permit is a reminder that plumbing work in this building needs both the association’s and the City’s sign-off. The City bars construction from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. and on Sundays and holidays (Marco Island Code of Ordinances, Municode).
Yes, and The Apollo is built around it. The association’s site says “all units are privately owned and individually managed,” that “onsite leasing is not available,” and directs visitors to a vacation rental listing to book; its rules publish no minimum rental term and no cap on rentals per year, and every person staying must submit a Pre-Arrival Registration Form at least 48 hours before arrival (Apollo Condominium Association; Apollo renters information).
Renters who have booked through an Apollo owner complete the Pre-Arrival Registration Form at least 48 hours before arrival and review the rules; they register at the front desk on arrival, receive a parking permit, pay the $45 per vehicle parking fee and the $75 hold fee, and follow the same occupancy caps as owners: four overnight in a one-bedroom and seven in a three-bedroom.
The association’s public pages do not state a minimum lease length, a limit on the number of rentals a year, or whether the board must approve a lease. Those terms, if any, sit in the declaration, which is behind the owner login. A buyer who plans to rent should read the declaration’s leasing section in the resale package; the published practice of owner-booked short stays is strong evidence of what owners do, not a legal guarantee of what the declaration allows.
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 in October 2023 after state preemption under SB 250, and nothing has replaced it (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, which is why The Apollo’s own rules govern.
Florida law says an amendment to a declaration that prohibits unit owners from renting, changes the rental term or limits how often owners may rent applies only to unit owners who consent to it and to owners who take title after it is adopted (Fla. Stat. 718.110). For an Apollo owner who rents by the week, that protects the current owner, while a new buyer takes title under whatever the declaration says on the day of closing.
No. The association’s apartment usage rules state: “No PETS shall be allowed on condominium property,” and its pool rules add that no animals are allowed in the pool and spa area (Apollo renters information). The rule applies to owners, renters and guests alike, so a buyer with a dog or a cat should look at another building.
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).
No. The association’s rules provide for children, with adult supervision at the pool for those under 12 and in the elevators for those under 8, and no age restriction appears in any document we read.
The Apollo sits in FEMA flood zone AE with a base flood elevation of 9 feet NAVD88 at both points we tested, on FIRM panel 12021C0836J effective 2024-02-08, outside the Coastal Barrier Resources System and in storm surge evacuation zone A, with zone VE at 10 feet mapped within 150 meters on the beach side. The ground at the street address point is about 4.7 feet NAVD88.
Data updated: October 2026.
| Point tested | FEMA zone | Base flood elevation | FIRM panel and effective date | Ground elevation (USGS 3DEP) | Zones mapped within 150 m |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 900 S Collier Blvd, street address point | AE (coastal floodplain) | 9 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0836J, 2024-02-08 | 4.7 ft NAVD88 | AE 9, VE 10, X |
| Apollo master parcel center (City GIS) | AE (coastal floodplain) | 9 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0836J, 2024-02-08 | 9.5 ft NAVD88 | AE 9, VE 10, X |
Method: the street address was geocoded with the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder and the parcel center was taken from the City of Marco Island parcel map; both points were tested against the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, with ground elevation read from the USGS 3D Elevation Program, on 2026-10-28 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer service; FEMA Flood Map Service Center; USGS 3D Elevation Program). The higher reading at the parcel center may fall on built-up ground or structure rather than open grade. The City’s own flood layer shows the building footprint straddling zone AE and shaded zone X. This is a map indication, not a flood determination; the building’s Elevation Certificate gives the structure’s own zone.
At the street address point the ground sits about 4.3 feet below the 9-foot base flood elevation (9.0 minus 4.7 is 4.3). In a concrete tower whose homes begin on the second floor, the flood exposure is at ground level: the lobby, the Sunset Grille, the fitness room, the office, the plant rooms, the elevator pits and the parking structure. That is why the 2025 impact openings on the ground floor and the generator’s location matter.
Florida’s Coastal Construction Control Line marks where the state regulates construction that could affect the beach and dune system. The geocoded street point for 900 South Collier sits 94 meters from the nearest segment of the Collier County line, on its landward side (FDEP Coastal Construction Control Line program). The pool deck and the beach-side structures are closer to the line; work seaward of it needs a state permit in addition to a City permit.
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). No permit at The Apollo’s address mentions Ian damage, and the engineer’s January 2024 visit, after Ian, found no substantial structural deterioration; ask the association about any ground-floor flooding and insurance claims.
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 wave of impact door and window permits at The Apollo began in October 2024, the month of Milton.
The Apollo’s common-area openings were replaced with impact-rated units in 2025, impact entry doors, sliders or windows were permitted at more than 70 of the 90 residences between late 2024 and late 2025, and the building has a 200 kW natural gas generator. Those are permit facts, not an engineering certification; the wind mitigation form for the building, described below, is the document an insurer relies on.
The Apollo association insures the building under a master policy and passes the cost through the fee; each owner carries an HO-6 policy for the inside of the unit, improvements and liability, and an owner who rents adds the coverage a rental use needs. The association does not publish its insurance schedule or deductibles, so the hurricane deductible must come from the association’s certificate of insurance.
Florida law requires a condominium association to use its best efforts to obtain and maintain adequate property insurance for the building based on replacement cost and allows a hurricane deductible set as a percentage of the insured value (Fla. Stat. 718.111). If a deductible is assessed to owners, each unit pays its share under the declaration. An HO-6 policy with loss assessment coverage is how an owner insures against that share.
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 Apollo unit does not trigger the requirement (Fla. Stat. 627.351). A lender may still require flood coverage on a unit in zone AE, and the association’s own building flood policy is separate from the owner’s.
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 says a buyer “may be able to assume the prior owner’s current NFIP policy” (FEMA FloodSmart, premium costs; FEMA FloodSmart, flood zones). FEMA’s list of Community Rating System communities effective October 1, 2026 shows the City of Marco Island, community number 120426, at Class 5, a 25 percent premium discount, effective 2023-10-01 (FEMA CRS eligible communities, October 2026).
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). In a high-rise those features belong to the building, so the credits land on the master policy; The Apollo’s new impact openings are the kind of feature the form records. The state’s My Safe Florida Home program has run a condominium pilot offering hurricane mitigation inspections and grants to associations (My Safe Florida Home).
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 Apollo seller completes it for the unit.
The Apollo is more than three habitable stories and reached 30 years old before July 1, 2022, so under Florida law it owed its initial milestone structural inspection before December 31, 2024 and a structural integrity reserve study (SIRS) by December 31, 2025. The City accepted its Phase 1 milestone report on 2024-11-20 under case MS1-24-06735, with no Phase 2 required (City of Marco Island Civic Access permit and milestone records).
Data updated: October 2026.
SOCOTEC Consulting inspected The Apollo on 2024-01-29, covering all common areas and 22 units, 25 percent of the residences. Its Phase 1 report, dated 2024-03-05 and sealed by a Florida professional engineer on 2024-10-15, found no substantial structural deterioration and no threat to public health or safety, so no Phase 2 was required. The association filed it with the City on 2024-10-02, and the City recorded the case as “Phase 1, report accepted” on 2024-11-20, inside the December 31, 2024 deadline.
The report lists near-term repairs that are not structural deterioration: concrete and stucco distress shown in its appendix, investigation and repair of concrete distress at the entry columns, stucco cracks on the gym’s exterior wall and around breezeway windows, corrosion staining at some balcony handrail posts, a crack at one balcony edge, a concrete spall in one unit, storage-room floor distress, water intrusion behind stucco on the front elevation and a handrail post to reset. For a buyer the point is that the building passed its first milestone with a maintenance list, which is what the next budget and the waterproofing program should be addressing.
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 (Fla. Stat. 553.899). By the county’s 1990 year built, The Apollo turned 30 in 2020 and its next milestone inspection falls about 10 years after the 2024 one.
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 and fire protection, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and painting, windows and exterior doors, and other items over $25,000; existing associations owed the first study by December 31, 2025, or by December 31, 2026 if done 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).
Whether The Apollo has completed its first SIRS is a records gap: the association posts no study publicly, and the state’s SIRS reporting views could not be read for this page when we looked on 2026-10-22. By the statute’s dates the first study was due by December 31, 2025. Ask the association for the study, or its written statement that none has been completed, which the seller must deliver under Fla. Stat. 718.503.
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). The 2027 budget adopted in October 2026 is the first place a buyer will see that rule’s effect on The Apollo’s 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 Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, to cancel after receiving them (Fla. Stat. 718.503). An owner can inspect the association’s official records, which must be produced within 10 working days of a written request (Fla. Stat. 718.111). At The Apollo ask specifically for the milestone summary, the SIRS and current reserve schedule, the adopted 2027 budget, the master policy deductibles, the waterproofing program’s cost and funding, the declaration’s leasing section, and the last two years of board minutes.
The Apollo 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 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 900 South Collier Boulevard with the district’s interactive zoning tool (CCPS zoning tool). The two charter schools enroll by application, not by zone.
The Apollo is inside the City of Marco Island, so building permits, flood rules, beach construction and sea turtle lighting rules, noise limits and code enforcement come from the City, not from Collier County. Its zoning, RT Residential Tourist, allows hotel and tourist uses alongside residential, which fits a building with a restaurant on the ground floor.
The City’s zoning map codes all of The Apollo’s parcels RT, Residential Tourist (City of Marco Island GIS map service). RT is the district the City uses for the beachfront resort and tourist strip, and The Somerset and Sea Winds share it. The Land Development Code sets what may be built or changed on an RT site (Marco Island Code of Ordinances, Municode).
A unit renovation that needs a permit goes through City of Marco Island Building Services. The City’s flood code treats work costing 50 percent of a structure’s market value, counted cumulatively over 12 months, as a substantial improvement that must meet current flood elevation rules (City of Marco Island floodplain documents); for a 90-unit tower that threshold is measured on the whole building, so it bites on building-wide projects, not on a single suite.
The City’s sea turtle protection rules cover the whole beachfront from Cape Marco to Hideaway Beach during nesting season, May 1 to October 31: lighting visible from the beach must be long-wavelength, shielded and downward, interior lights must be off after 9:00 p.m. or shaded, and construction, fill or mechanical beach cleaning within 100 feet of the nesting zone is barred during the season (Marco Island Code, Chapter 54, Article V; Marco Island Code of Ordinances). In a building of short-stay guests this rule needs telling to every arrival.
The City’s records hold 55 code cases at 900 South Collier Boulevard, mostly sea turtle lighting cases in 2023, 2024 and 2026, including a second violation sent to the magistrate in 2024, plus parking citations, glass on the beach and encroachments; none is a structural or unsafe-building case, and one 2021 citation case still showed open when the record was read on 2026-10-22 (City of Marco Island Civic Access permit records).
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 The Apollo runs through the front desk, with the beach at the back of the building, a restaurant downstairs and the South Marco Beach public access next door. Groceries and urgent care are a drive north on Collier Boulevard; there is no hospital emergency department on Marco Island.
The Apollo opens directly onto the Gulf beach, and the South Marco Beach public access, at 930 South Collier Boulevard with its parking lot on Swallow Avenue, is next door by address (Gulfshore Life, South Marco Beach Access; City of Marco Island beach access; Collier County Marco Island beaches). That public access brings day visitors to this stretch of sand in season, which owners notice.
The beach in front of the South Collier towers is part of the Marco Island Beach Restoration Project, which the Florida Department of Environmental Protection records as completed in February 1991 with 1,260,000 cubic yards placed along 2.64 miles, followed by maintenance placements in 2006, 2013, 2016, 2019 and 2020 (FDEP Strategic Beach Management Plan, Southwest Gulf Coast).
The Sunset Grille is in the building, a casual beachside bar and restaurant that the Marco Eagle has also reviewed as a place for dinner and a show (Marco Eagle, Sunset Grille, 2018). The nearest supermarkets are on North Collier Boulevard: Publix at Marco Town Center, 1089 North Collier Boulevard, open 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. (Publix store 622), and Winn-Dixie at 625 North Collier Boulevard, open 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. (Winn-Dixie Marco Island).
NCH runs an urgent care center at 40 South Heathwood Drive on the island, open 8:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. daily, with CT and X-ray (NCH Marco Island urgent care), and its directory lists no emergency department on Marco Island (NCH locations, Marco Island). The nearest hospital emergency department is Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard in Naples (Physicians Regional hospitals), an estimated 10.6 miles and 18 minutes from the Marco Island end of the Jolley Bridge at free-flow speed.
Estimated free-flow drive times from the Marco Island end of the Jolley Bridge, modeled on the public OSRM router: Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) about 47 miles and 63 minutes; Marco Island Executive Airport, a 5,000-foot general aviation field just north of the island with no scheduled airline service, about 4.5 miles (Collier County, Marco Island Executive Airport). Peak-season times run longer. Our Naples versus Marco Island comparison covers the mainland alternative, and our Collier County guide covers the rest of the county.
The Apollo and The Somerset are both 1990 gulf-front towers on South Collier Boulevard, zoned RT, a few buildings apart, and they serve different buyers: in the 60 months to 2026-10-07 The Apollo’s median MLS sale was $776,000 on 14 closings against The Somerset’s $1,760,000 on 21. The Apollo is the small-suite, rental-oriented building; The Somerset is a building of two- and three-bedroom homes of 1,288 square feet and up.
Data updated: October 2026. Both buildings, 60 months to 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS; county roll data dated 2026-08-29. The 60-month window is the first with ten or more closings at The Apollo, so both are compared on it.

The Apollo’s strengths are price, rental freedom, a clean milestone result, direct beach access, a restaurant downstairs and a market of near-identical suites that is easy to price; its weaknesses are small units, a no-pet rule, a building of guests rather than residents, and ground-floor flood exposure.
If you’re searching for an Apollo listing agent, or thinking, ‘I need someone to sell my Apollo home…’, McGreevy and Comisar are the team to call. The Apollo recorded 14 closings in the 60 months to 2026-10-07 at a median of $776,000, and the median sale closed at 96.4 percent of its final asking price in 45 days.
In the last 60 months we tracked 14 Apollo resales on the Southwest Florida MLS: $13,455,999 in total volume, a median sale of $776,000, a median of 45 days on market and a median sale-to-final-list ratio of 96.4 percent. None of the 14 was entered after closing. In the 12 months to 2026-10-07 there were four closings, at a median of $780,000 for those four sales.
Selling here is a comparables-and-rental exercise. Every suite is the same 504 square feet with a Gulf view, so a buyer compares yours with the last four or five suite sales and with the deeds that never reached the MLS, and condition, furnishings and floor decide where in the $760,000 to $802,000 band you land. Three Apollo specifics shape a sale. First, many buyers are investors, so a rental history, a booking calendar and the association’s guest rules help them underwrite the purchase. Second, buyers and lenders will ask about the 2027 budget, the SIRS and the waterproofing program, so have the association’s answers in hand. Third, the no-pet rule and the occupancy caps narrow the pool, which makes precise pricing more important than at a building with a wider buyer base.

The median Apollo sale in the 60 months to 2026-10-07 took 45 days on the market, across 14 sales, with a range from 1 day to 180 days (Southwest Florida MLS).
Close to it. The median Apollo sale closed at 96.4 percent of its final list price in the 60 months to 2026-10-07, from 93.8 to 100.0 percent (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.
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). At The Apollo, add the adopted 2027 budget, the milestone report and your unit’s rental history.
Most suites in a rental building sell furnished, and a buyer who plans to rent values a turnkey unit with bookings. List the furnishings in the contract, and keep future bookings and their deposits clearly assigned.
Selectively. Suites sold as much as $112,000 apart over five years, mostly with the market, but condition decides where a suite lands in the current band, and any plumbing or electrical work needs the association’s approval and a City permit.

The questions below come from the search terms people use for The Apollo and Marco Island beachfront condominiums, rewritten as plain questions. Every answer comes from the records cited on this page.
The Apollo is a 10-story beachfront condominium tower at 900 South Collier Boulevard on Marco Island, Florida, built in 1990, with 90 residences and an on-site beachfront restaurant, the Sunset Grille.
In the 60 months to 2026-10-07, 14 Apollo units sold at a median of $776,000, from $690,000 to $1,878,000 (Southwest Florida MLS). The one-bedroom suites that sold in the last 12 months brought $760,000 to $802,000.
The 72 one-bedroom suites are 504 square feet and the 18 three-bedroom end units are 1,288 square feet on the county roll; the association describes its three-bedrooms as 1,400 square feet.
As entered by listing agents, $13,664 to $14,060 a year on the 2026 suite closings and $14,064 on the one listing of 2026-10-07; a 2024 three-bedroom sale entered $18,540. The association adopted its 2027 budget in October 2026.
Yes. The association describes the building as “directly on the pristine shores of Marco Island” with “direct access to the pristine white sands,” and FEMA maps zone VE within 150 meters on its beach side.
The association’s published rules set no minimum rental term, and its site points visitors to owner-booked vacation rentals; every guest registers 48 hours ahead. Confirm the declaration’s leasing section in the resale package.
No. The association’s rules state “No PETS shall be allowed on condominium property.”
Up to four overnight in a one-bedroom and seven in a three-bedroom in any 24-hour period, with two guests per one-bedroom and four per three-bedroom using the common facilities.
Yes. Each unit has two spaces, one assigned in the covered garage and one around the drive; guests and renters pay $45 per vehicle and a $75 hold fee at check-in.
A heated pool and spa, a fitness room, tennis courts, laundry on every floor, a front desk, direct beach access and the Sunset Grille restaurant on the ground floor.
Yes. The Sunset Grille, a beachside bar and restaurant, occupies a ground-floor commercial unit at 900 South Collier Boulevard, Suite 500.
Yes. The City accepted its Phase 1 report on 2024-11-20; the engineer found no substantial structural deterioration and required no Phase 2.
None appears in any public record we could read. Ask for the estoppel certificate, the adopted 2027 budget and the last two years of minutes before you sign.
FEMA zone AE with a base flood elevation of 9 feet NAVD88 on FIRM panel 12021C0836J effective 2024-02-08, with zone VE 10 mapped within 150 meters on the beach side.
Yes. The address falls in storm surge evacuation zone A, the first zone ordered out in a surge threat.
The association manages itself with an on-site community association manager and front desk; no outside management company is named in the state, corporate or City records.
No. The association’s rules make it a smoke-free property, with smoking “not permitted anywhere on the property.”
No. The rules bar barbecuing, food preparation and outdoor cooking of any kind on condominium property and on unit balconies.
No. The rules provide for children, with supervision at the pool and in the elevators.
Collier County Public Schools; the island is in the Tommie Barfield Elementary, Manatee Middle and Lely High zones, with two charter schools on the island. Confirm the address on the district’s zoning tool.
Yes, subject to the lender’s review of the association. Lenders look at the budget, reserves, insurance, rental use, the milestone report and the SIRS, and a building with heavy short-term rental can fall outside some lenders’ guidelines, so ask your lender early.
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title policy and chooses the closing agent; the contract controls.
These are the questions Apollo owners ask when they decide to sell, answered from the Southwest Florida MLS, the Collier County roll, the City of Marco Island’s records, the association’s own rules and Florida statute text.
Start from the suite record: the four one-bedroom suites sold in the 12 months to 2026-10-07 brought $760,000 to $802,000, a median of $780,000, and a suite deed of $795,000 recorded on 2025-09-30. Condition and furnishings decide where in that band yours lands.
The three three-bedroom end units sold on the MLS in 60 months brought $1,600,000, $1,699,999 and $1,878,000, and the county recorded a private three-bedroom sale at $1,800,000 on 2024-04-04.
Fourteen Apollo units closed in the 60 months to 2026-10-07 at a median of $776,000, a range of $690,000 to $1,878,000 and a total of $13,455,999 (Southwest Florida MLS).
Four closed in the 12 months to 2026-10-07: $802,000, $780,000, $780,000 and $760,000, a median of $780,000 for those four sales.
One was active and none pending on 2026-10-07: suite 606 asking $820,000, about 4.3 months of supply at the 60-month pace.
The median Apollo sale in the last 60 months took 45 days on the market across 14 sales; the range ran from 1 to 180 days.
The median sale closed at 96.4 percent of its final list price in the 60 months to 2026-10-07, from 93.8 to 100.0 percent.
$1,878,000, for a 1,288 square foot three-bedroom end unit, 601, that closed on 2024-01-03 after 25 days on the market (Southwest Florida MLS).
$690,000, for a 504 square foot suite, 303, that closed on 2022-02-25 after 41 days (Southwest Florida MLS); the same suite recorded a deed of $795,000 in 2025.

Some owners sell privately, often to other owners or repeat guests. In the county’s 60-month window to 2026-08-24, five of the 19 qualified Apollo deeds did not match an MLS closing; they are still comparables for your price.
The association’s public pages do not publish a sale approval rule; listing agents entered a $150 application fee on 2025 and 2026 sales. The declaration governs, so ask the office before you list.
Florida caps the fee at $299 when nothing is owed, plus $119 for delivery within three business days and up to $179 more if the account is delinquent, subject to inflation adjustment (Fla. Stat. 718.116).
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 $5,432 on a $776,000 Apollo 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.
Florida gives a resale buyer 7 days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, to cancel after signing and receiving the required documents, and a waiver of that right has no effect (Fla. Stat. 718.503).
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 (Fla. Stat. 689.302).
Buyers and lenders ask for both. The Apollo’s accepted Phase 1 report with no Phase 2 helps a sale; get the association’s SIRS, or its statement that none has been completed, 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 is read before closing.
Yes, if the contract says what happens to them. Decide whether the buyer takes over the bookings and deposits or you cancel them, and give the buyer the calendar and the rental income history.
It narrows the buyer pool to people without pets, which is one reason pricing has to be precise; for rental investors it rarely matters.
The suite fee, about $14,060 a year as entered on 2026 sales, is about 1.8 percent of the suite median, and it rose about 52 percent in four years. Buyers compare it with the rent a suite earns, so show both.
Not clearly in the sales we tracked: second-floor suites sold for both $760,000 and $802,000 in 2026. Every unit has a Gulf view, so condition and timing mattered more than height.
That depends on your plans. With one suite listed on 2026-10-07 and four suites sold in the last 12 months, supply is thin, but the active listing has waited 254 days at $820,000, above every suite sale on record, which tells you where the ceiling sits.
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; on $780,000 that is $6,983.73 a year.
Yes, by repeat sales of the same suites: suite 303 rose from $690,000 in 2022 to $795,000 in 2025, about 15.2 percent, and suite 207 from $488,000 in 2021 to $802,000 in 2026, about 64.3 percent.
Fix what a buyer’s inspector will flag and what photographs poorly, confirm any impact door or window work is permitted and closed out with the City, and refresh furnishings if you sell turnkey.

A buyer’s tax strategy is the buyer’s to arrange with a qualified intermediary and tax adviser; many Apollo buyers are investors, so expect it, and allow for its timing in the contract.
