The Whitehall of Naples is a nine-story Gulf-front condominium at 1255 Gulf Shore Blvd N in Coquina Sands: 16 homes of 3,000 sq ft, two per floor, a pool and the beach at the door, and a $4.9M record sale. Talk to McGreevy and Comisar.
McGreevy and Comisar are the team Whitehall owners call first when they are ready to sell, and the team buyers call when they want the building’s real record before they tour. The Whitehall of Naples is a 16-residence, nine-story Gulf-front condominium inside the neighborhood of Coquina Sands in Naples, Florida, at 1255 Gulf Shore Boulevard North, Naples, FL 34102, a short walk south of Lowdermilk Park and next door to Via Delfino. Coquina Sands is a City of Naples neighborhood with no mandatory homeowners association, and The Whitehall is one of its twelve condominiums and one of the smallest by count: two homes to a floor, eight residential floors, every home 3,000 square feet on the county roll.
The Whitehall was declared a condominium on 3 October 1972 and completed in 1974, and it keeps the form it was built with: sixteen residences, one association, one stretch of beach. Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar lead Domain Realty Group, the #1 real estate team in Southwest Florida since 2012 and Top 1% of agents nationally since 2008. This page is built from the building’s state condominium and elevator records, its Florida corporation record, the City of Naples milestone list, zoning code and the association’s own 2023, 2024 and 2026 filings with the City, FEMA’s flood map queried at the building, and the Collier County roll for all 16 residences with every recorded sale since 1973. Where the public record stops, we say so and name the document that answers the question.
If you own at The Whitehall and are weighing a sale, start with the market snapshot and the seller section, then call Jesse. If you are buying, the floor-by-floor values, the hurricane record and the comparison with Via Delfino below will tell you whether The Whitehall fits before you tour.

That matters at The Whitehall for a specific reason: it is one of the thinnest markets on Gulf Shore Boulevard North, and its sixteen identical-looking homes are not priced identically. Every Whitehall residence is carried at 3,000 square feet on the Collier County roll, and the county steps its value up floor by floor, from $2,985,000 on the first floor to $3,265,000 on the eighth, with the North and South homes on the same floor valued the same except unit 6S, which the certified roll cut by $800,000 to $2,395,000 (Collier County roll, tax year 2026 certified, file dated 27 October 2026). The recorded sales do not follow that script. The two highest qualified sales in the building’s history, $4,900,000 and $4,525,000 in February 2024, were a third-floor and a fifth-floor home, and the two qualified sales recorded in April 2026, a third-floor and a sixth-floor home, closed at $3,300,000 and $3,125,000. A listing agent who prices a Whitehall home off the county value, or off one recent deed, without reading the floor, the condition and the terms behind each sale, misses all of it.
Recent The Whitehall track record (36 months to 29 August 2026): In the Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 26 September 2026, The Whitehall shows 5 closings in the last 60 months, from $3,125,000 to $4,900,000 at a median of $4,200,000, with a median 62 days on market and a median 93.13% of list price; 2 of them closed in the last 12 months, at a median of $3,212,500, and none was listed for sale on the pull date. The sales below are the county’s recorded deeds. In the 36 months to 29 August 2026 The Whitehall recorded 4 qualified resales; median $3,912,500; range $3,125,000 to $4,900,000 (Collier County roll and sales file, files dated 29 August 2026). The four are unit 3S at $4,900,000 (14 February 2024, Official Records Book 6336, Page 1436), unit 5S at $4,525,000 (17 February 2024, OR 6334/707), unit 3N at $3,300,000 (14 April 2026, OR 6577/842) and unit 6S at $3,125,000 (29 April 2026, OR 6584/1503). The highest Whitehall sale on record is $4,900,000, unit 3S, recorded 14 February 2024. We tracked every recorded Whitehall sale in the Collier County roll through 29 August 2026. Ask us and we will walk you through all four deeds, and the three unqualified deeds beside them, one by one.
For Whitehall sellers: premium marketing, including cinematic video, drone, professional photography, a qualified-buyer database, and discretion with off-market capability when a sale needs to stay quiet. At a building of sixteen owners, discretion is not a luxury, and seven of the sixteen owners mail their tax bills outside Florida, so a sale has to run well with the owner out of town (Collier County roll, 2026). We build the file a Whitehall buyer will ask for before the first showing: the declaration and rules that Florida law requires you to deliver (Fla. Stat. §718.503), the estoppel certificate with the current assessment and any special assessment, the association’s milestone inspection summary and structural integrity reserve study, the master insurance declarations, and a plain account of the building’s post-Ian rebuild and its 2026 rooftop generator petition with the City.
For Whitehall buyers: the first question at The Whitehall is the floor, because the county values it and the view depends on it. The second is the record: how the association responded to Hurricane Ian, what its milestone inspection found and how its reserves are funded. The third is fit: sixteen neighbors, a pool and fitness building rather than a resort amenity list, and a legal nonconforming tower that could not be built to this height today. Sellers and buyers comparing the best real estate agents in Naples should ask each one to answer those three questions for a specific Whitehall residence; we answer them below.

Living in The Whitehall means a 3,000-square-foot condominium home sharing its floor with one neighbor, in a nine-story tower of sixteen households on the Gulf side of Gulf Shore Boulevard North, with a pool, a fitness building, an on-site management residence and the beach at the door, and Lowdermilk Park a few minutes’ walk north.
The Whitehall is small by design and old by Gulf Shore standards, and both facts shape daily life. One association of sixteen owners governs the building, the grounds and the beach frontage; above it there is no master association and no community development district, because Coquina Sands has neither. What follows is what living at The Whitehall looks like, drawn from the state’s records, the City’s files and the county roll.
The Whitehall of Naples is a residential condominium under Chapter 718 of the Florida Statutes, registered with the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation as project PR1S019013, “WHITEHALL OF NAPLES, THE”, with a recorded date of 3 October 1972 and a status of approved and recorded (DBPR condominium projects extract). Its association is The Whitehall of Naples, Inc., an active Florida corporation, document 724472, filed the same day (Florida Division of Corporations). The association’s own 2026 filing with the City gives the legal description as “The Whitehall, a Condominium, according to the Declaration of Condominium recorded in Official Records Book 554, Pages 926 to 980 inclusive, of the Public Records of Collier County, Florida” (City of Naples, Petition 26-N1 application). It is not a cooperative and it is not a homeowners association: each owner holds a deed to a unit and an undivided share of the common elements.
The Whitehall has 16 residences, two per floor on eight residential floors, numbered 1N and 1S through 8N and 8S. The association’s own sworn 2026 petition to the City describes the property as “Residential Multi-Family. Sixteen condominiums,” and the Collier County roll carries 16 unit parcels (26-N1 application; Collier County roll, files dated 29 August 2026). Florida DBPR’s registration record, which dates to the 1972 declaration, lists 17 units; no public document we read explains the seventeenth, and the recorded declaration governs. We publish 16 because the owners and the county both count 16.
The City of Naples lists The Whitehall as a nine-story building built in 1974 on its 2024 milestone inspection list (City of Naples 2024 milestone buildings). Two hydraulic passenger elevators, state certificates 12088 and 12089, each serve nine landings with a 2,500-pound capacity; both were installed in 1973, both passed state inspection on 1 June 2026, and both carry certificates of operation valid to 1 August 2027 (DBPR Bureau of Elevator Safety extract). Nine landings for eight residential floors fits a ground level plus eight floors of homes; the association’s 2026 structural drawings label an “EXISTING GARAGE” at ground level (26-N1 site plan and structural sheets).
On Gulf Shore Boulevard North through Coquina Sands, odd house numbers sit on the west, Gulf side of the street, and 1255 is one of them. The City’s own address point for 1255 and its building footprint both sit west of the road centerline (City of Naples GIS address points), FEMA’s coastal high hazard zone begins on the beach roughly 85 feet west of the tower’s west face (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer), and the state’s beach range monument R-062 plots just southwest of the building (FDEP coastal open data). A Whitehall owner walks from the pool deck to the sand without crossing a street.
Four of the sixteen residences carry a Florida homestead exemption, units 1N, 4N, 5S and 8S; twelve do not, which means second homes, investment or entity ownership (Collier County roll, 2026). Nine owners mail their tax bills to a Florida address and seven mail outside Florida, to New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Illinois and Canada. The Whitehall is a seasonal building with a year-round core, which is typical of Gulf Shore Boulevard North: the homestead rate across the 278 parcels of the two Coquina Sands plats is 58 percent, while the Gulf Shore corridor runs far lower building by building.
Morning on the beach behind the building, then a walk north along the sand to Lowdermilk Park, the City’s beachfront park at 1301 Gulf Shore Boulevard North, about 0.12 mile away in a straight line and a 1.4-minute drive by road (City of Naples, Lowdermilk Park; routes measured 26 September 2026). The pool and fitness building on the grounds, lunch at Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort, about 0.3 mile south, and an evening that ends with sunset over the Gulf from the beach behind the building. NCH Baker Hospital is 1.29 road miles and about four minutes away, Fifth Avenue South 2.14 miles, and Naples Airport 4.72 miles, all free-flow times that run longer in season.
A 1974 building is a pre-code building in every sense a buyer should care about: it predates the Florida Building Code of 2002, the 2022 condominium safety laws and today’s flood maps. That is not a defect; it is a set of questions. The Whitehall was on the City’s 2024 milestone inspection list, so its first milestone inspection was due by 31 December 2024 (City of Naples milestone inspections by year). It is a legal nonconforming building: the City’s September 2026 Planning Advisory Board agenda calls it an “Existing Nonconforming Condominium Building”, because its roof stands above the 75-foot height limit of its R3-18 zoning district (City of Naples PAB agenda, 9 September 2026). And after Hurricane Ian destroyed its ground-level electric room, generator room and management living quarters, the association won City approval in January 2024 to rebuild them above flood level. Each of those facts has its own section below.
Six things buyers sometimes assume. No published fee schedule: the association has no website, and Florida’s condominium website requirement applies only to associations of 25 or more units (Fla. Stat. §718.111). No master association or CDD: Coquina Sands has neither, and its neighborhood association is voluntary at $90 a year. No resort membership: the Four Seasons next door is a separate property with its own residences and club. No short-term hotel use: the building’s R3-18 zoning does not permit transient lodging (City of Naples Ordinance 02-9497). No published pet, lease or parking rules: those live in the declaration and rules, which we list below. No boat dock: The Whitehall faces the Gulf, not Moorings Bay.
The Whitehall recorded 4 county-qualified resales in the 36 months to 29 August 2026, at a median of $3,912,500 and a range of $3,125,000 to $4,900,000, and 2 in the last 12 months, at $3,300,000 and $3,125,000. The record is $4,900,000 for unit 3S, February 2024 (Collier County roll and sales file).
Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County recorded sales through 29 August 2026)
Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 26 September 2026: 5 closings at The Whitehall in the last 60 months, at a median of $4,200,000. The sales below are the county’s recorded deeds. We tracked every recorded Whitehall sale in the Collier County roll through 29 August 2026, from the first developer-era deeds of December 1973 to the newest deed of 29 April 2026, and we read each one against the county’s own qualified flag. The county qualifies a deed when it treats the transfer as an open-market sale; transfers of $100 or less, trust and estate transfers, corrective deeds and related-party sales are recorded but not qualified. Every price per square foot below uses the county’s 3,000 square feet, the one measure that is the same for all sixteen homes.
Sixteen homes, ten years, four qualified sales. Between 2016 and 2023 the county qualified no Whitehall sale at all; all four qualified sales since 2016 recorded in February 2024 and April 2026.
Recorded | Unit | Floor | Price | Per county sq ft | Official Records |

29 April 2026 | 6S | 6 | $3,125,000 | $1,042 | OR 6584/1503 |
14 April 2026 | 3N | 3 | $3,300,000 | $1,100 | OR 6577/842 |
17 February 2024 | 5S | 5 | $4,525,000 | $1,508 | OR 6334/707 |

The build rule for this page is to widen the window until it holds ten or more qualified sales, and to list the sales instead of quoting a median where it does not. At The Whitehall only the full recorded history reaches ten.
Window to 29 August 2026 | Qualified sales | Median | Low | High |
|---|---|---|---|---|
12 months | 2 | $3,212,500 | $3,125,000 | $3,300,000 |
24 months | 2 | $3,212,500 | $3,125,000 | $3,300,000 |
36 months | 4 | $3,912,500 | $3,125,000 | $4,900,000 |
60 months | 4 | $3,912,500 | $3,125,000 | $4,900,000 |
All recorded history, January 1974 to August 2026 | 19 | $1,450,000 | $140,000 | $4,900,000 |
In all recorded history The Whitehall has 19 county-qualified resales. That all-history median of $1,450,000 spans 52 years and says almost nothing about today’s value, which is why the four sales since 2016 are listed in full above and the 36-month line leads this page. A two-sale median is the average of two prices, not an observed sale, so read the 12- and 24-month lines as the two April 2026 deeds.
The highest amount of any kind on the Whitehall roll is $4,900,000 for unit 3S, recorded 14 February 2024, Official Records Book 6336, Page 1436, county-qualified, which works out to $1,633 per county square foot. Three days later unit 5S recorded at $4,525,000 (OR 6334/707). Next door, Via Delfino’s record is $7,300,000 for unit 502 in May 2023 (OR 6248/2330), a larger home in a newer building; the comparison section below puts the two buildings side by side on the same yardstick.
The two qualified sales recorded in April 2026, $3,300,000 and $3,125,000, closed below the two recorded in February 2024, $4,900,000 and $4,525,000. That is a factual observation, not a trend. The four homes sit on different floors, their condition and renovation at sale are not in the public record, and the county file carries no terms. Four deeds do not make a market index, and anyone quoting a percentage decline for The Whitehall from them is quoting a composition effect as a price change. What a seller can take from them is narrower and more useful: buyers in 2026 paid about $1,040 to $1,100 per county square foot, the 2024 buyers paid about $1,500 to $1,630, and the difference between those two pairs is exactly what a good listing file has to explain.
Three recent Whitehall deeds carry real prices but no qualified flag, and a seller will hear about them. Unit 3S recorded at $2,600,000 on 4 February 2020 (OR 5727/2967), unit 1N at $4,200,000 on 30 March 2023 (OR 6232/2186) and unit 5N at $3,000,000 on 8 August 2025 (OR 6499/2277). The county’s reason codes are not in its public extract, and we do not guess at them. Two older unqualified deeds, $1,000,000 for 6S in December 2016 and $598,400 for 3N in December 2021, sit far below the building’s value range and read as partial-interest or non-arm’s-length transfers; they are not comparables. We treat all five as the county does.
Period, qualified sales only | Sales | Median | Median per county sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
1993 to 1996 | 4 | $622,500 | $208 |
2003 to 2004 | 5 | $1,250,000 | $417 |
2007 to 2015 | 5 | $1,750,000 | $583 |
2024 | 2 | $4,712,500 | $1,571 |
2026, to 29 August | 2 | $3,212,500 | $1,071 |
Source: Collier County sales file; our arithmetic. The first qualified deed on the roll is unit 1N at $140,000 on 1 January 1974 (OR 572/246), the building’s first year.
Four Whitehall homes have two qualified sales on record, which is the closest thing to a like-for-like price history a building this small has. Unit 5S went from $2,050,000 (17 March 2015, OR 5130/2526) to $4,525,000 (17 February 2024), up 120.7 percent in about 8.9 years. Unit 3S went from $1,450,000 (9 June 2004, OR 3583/1757) to $4,900,000 (14 February 2024), up 237.9 percent in about 19.7 years. Unit 3N went from $1,499,000 (28 December 2011, OR 4751/3372) to $3,300,000 (14 April 2026), up 120.1 percent in about 14.3 years. Unit 6S went from $1,800,000 (12 March 2007, OR 4196/237) to $3,125,000 (29 April 2026), up 73.6 percent in about 19.1 years. Condition and renovation between the two sales are unknown, so treat these as four stories, not a building index.
The Collier County roll carries every Whitehall home at 3,000 square feet and steps its just value up by floor, with the North and South homes on each floor valued the same except unit 6S (tax year 2026 certified roll, file dated 27 October 2026).
Floor | Units | County just value, 2026 certified | Per county sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | 1N, 1S | $2,985,000 | $995 |
2 | 2N, 2S | $3,085,000 | $1,028 |
3 | 3N, 3S | $3,135,000 | $1,045 |
4 | 4N, 4S | $3,155,000 | $1,052 |
5 | 5N, 5S | $3,175,000 | $1,058 |
6 | 6N; 6S | $3,195,000; $2,395,000 | $1,065; $798 |
7 | 7N, 7S | $3,215,000 | $1,072 |
8 | 8N, 8S | $3,265,000 | $1,088 |
The sixteen values total $49,620,000, the median is $3,155,000, and the eighth floor sits $280,000, or 9.4 percent, above the first. Just value is the appraiser’s mass-appraisal estimate, not a price, and the April 2026 sale of 3N closed about 5 percent above it, the April 2026 sale of 6S about 30 percent above the $2,395,000 the certified roll now carries, while the February 2024 sales closed far above it. An online automated estimate built on the county roll will read The Whitehall’s floors correctly and its best homes poorly.
The Naples Area Board of REALTORS reports condominiums for its “Naples Beach” area, ZIP codes 34102, 34103 and 34108, which includes Coquina Sands along with Park Shore, The Moorings, Pelican Bay and Vanderbilt Beach. In July 2026 that area’s condominium median closed price was $950,000, down 3.7 percent from $986,875; months of supply stood at 7.1, down from 11.9; condominiums took a median 147 days to sell and closed at 92.5 percent of list price (NABOR July 2026 statistics). Those are area-wide condominium MLS figures, not Whitehall figures, and they are not the same metric as a building’s recorded deeds. As positioning only: The Whitehall’s recorded prices sit at roughly three to five times the Naples Beach condominium median, which tells you it trades in a different buyer pool from the area’s typical condominium.
The Whitehall is a sixteen-home building that trades a home or two a year when it trades at all, and a price there is made by the specific home, not by the building’s average. The 2024 pair set a ceiling; the 2026 pair reset expectations toward the county’s values; the unqualified 2023 and 2025 deeds sit between them. A buyer should expect a well-presented upper-floor home to be priced against both pairs, and a seller should expect a buyer to ask why a home is priced above the 2026 deeds. That is the question our valuation answers before a listing goes live.

The Whitehall came to be on a platted Coquina Sands beachfront lot: its condominium was declared on 3 October 1972, its first unit deeds recorded in December 1973 and January 1974, and the City lists it as built in 1974, a nine-story tower of sixteen homes on Lot 5 of Coquina Sands Unit No. 1.
The land under The Whitehall is Lot 5, Coquina Sands Unit No. 1, recorded at Plat Book 3, Pages 21 and 22 of the Collier County public records, according to the association’s 2026 boundary survey filed with the City (City of Naples, Petition 26-N1 survey). Coquina Sands Unit 1 was the 1954 replat that replaced the original 1887 Naples grid with the long curving streets the neighborhood is known for, and the City’s own copies of the plat pages are published online (City of Naples, Plat Book 3, pages 21 and 22). The survey labels the neighboring lots, Lot 4 and Lot 6, as occupied. On the ground, Via Delfino at 1221 stands next door to the south, Colonial Club at 1275 is the next building north on the Gulf side, and Lowdermilk Park’s City land begins at 1301.
The Declaration of Condominium is recorded in Official Records Book 554, Pages 926 to 980 inclusive, a 55-page instrument on file with the Collier County Clerk of Courts (26-N1 application). The state’s condominium registration and the association’s Florida corporation both carry the same date, 3 October 1972 (DBPR condominium projects extract; Florida Division of Corporations). The 2023 pre-application form the association filed with the City describes the property’s legal description from a site survey dated 26 September 1973 (City of Naples, 2023 pre-application form).
The county’s sales file opens with the developer-era deeds: unit 8S at $125,000 in December 1973 (OR 570/717), and unit 1N at $140,000 on 1 January 1974 (OR 572/246), the first qualified Whitehall sale on record. Several other units recorded deeds in December 1973 and January 1974 at nominal amounts. The two elevators were installed in 1973 (DBPR elevator extract), and the City dates the building to 1974. The developer’s name is not stated in any public record we read; it is in the declaration at OR 554/926.
At least one website publishes The Whitehall’s address as “1225 Gulf Shore Boulevard.” The state’s condominium record, the Florida corporation record, the City of Naples, the City’s GIS and the county roll all say 1255. There is also a Whitehall Condominium Association in Boca Raton, at 2000 South Ocean Boulevard, with its own state coastal permits; it has nothing to do with the Naples building. When you order documents, title work or insurance, use 1255 Gulf Shore Blvd N, Naples, FL 34102, and the association name The Whitehall of Naples, Inc.
In 2002 the City rezoned the west side of Gulf Shore Boulevard North, from Oleander Drive to Doctors Pass, from R3-T18 to R3-18 under Ordinance 02-9497, naming “WHITEHALL 1255 GSBN” as Parcel 5; the ordinance passed at second reading on 23 January 2002 (City of Naples Ordinance 02-9497). Its recitals say R3-18 “does not permit transient lodging as a permitted use and eliminates additional height and additional lot coverage allowances”. The Whitehall’s roof already stood above the district’s 75-foot limit, which is why the City now treats it as a legal nonconforming building.
The Whitehall’s ancillary buildings were damaged twice in five years. At the City’s Design Review Board hearing of 24 January 2024, the association’s representatives testified that the structures “had been originally damaged during Hurricane Irma and then during Hurricane Ian,” and the association’s president said they had been rebuilt after Irma (Design Review Board minutes, 24 January 2024). The association’s filing put it plainly: “Building services including the electric room, generator room, and building management living quarters were destroyed during Hurricane Ian as those areas were located below flood level” (2023 pre-application form). The board approved Petition 24-DRB3, a 600-square-foot generator and mechanical room on top of the existing fitness building and a 700-square-foot second-floor management living quarters on top of the existing management building, both beside the pool; the motion “unanimously carried”, with a condition that landscaping “provide adequate screening between Via Delfino and Whitehall” (DRB agenda, 24 January 2024).
In April 2026 the association filed Nonconformity Petition 26-N1 to place a Kohler KG180 generator on a new steel support frame on the roof, with the top of the generator at 89 feet 6 inches above finished floor (26-N1 application; 26-N1 site plan). The City’s Planning Advisory Board heard it as item 7.E on 9 September 2026, titled “to Allow for a Change to an Existing Nonconforming Condominium Building to Accommodate a Rooftop Generator Exceeding the Maximum Allowable Height” (PAB agenda, 9 September 2026). The outcome is unverified. We could not retrieve the board’s recommendation or any City Council decision for this edition, and we do not report one. Ask the association, or check the City Clerk’s 2026 board records, before you rely on the generator either way.
The Whitehall is one of twelve condominiums in Coquina Sands, and in the 36 months to 29 August 2026 only four of its sixteen homes recorded a qualified sale, from $3,125,000 to a record $4,900,000. In a building that small, the seller who prices to the floor and the condition, with the milestone summary, the reserve study and the Ian rebuild record already in the file, is the seller who sets the next benchmark.

The Whitehall’s residences are sixteen condominium homes of 3,000 square feet each on the Collier County roll, two to a floor, North and South, on floors 1 through 8 of a nine-story tower. No Whitehall home is larger or smaller than another on the county’s record; floor, exposure and renovation are what separate them.
Item | What the public record shows | Source |
|---|---|---|
Residences | 16, numbered 1N and 1S to 8N and 8S | Collier County roll; 26-N1 application |
Residences per floor | 2 | Collier County roll |
Size | 3,000 sq ft base and adjusted area, every unit | Collier County roll |
Stories | 9 | |
Elevators | 2 hydraulic passenger cars, 9 landings each | |
Tower footprint | about 7,757 sq ft, roughly 112 by 92 feet | |
Year built | 1974 | City of Naples; Collier County roll |
Two 3,000-square-foot homes on a plate of about 7,757 square feet leaves room for the elevators, stairs and lobbies and not much else, which is why each Whitehall home reads as a half-floor residence rather than an apartment off a corridor. The footprint dimensions are our arithmetic on the City’s building polygon.
The number is the floor and the letter is the stack. 3N is the third-floor North home; 8S is the eighth-floor South home. Every unit parcel on the county roll carries the same street address, 1255 Gulf Shore Blvd N, and a folio from 21310040001 (1N) to 21310640003 (8S), stepping by floor. The City’s address layer shows one master point for the building rather than one per unit (City of Naples GIS address points), so title work and insurance should always carry the unit designation.
The county records area, not rooms. Bedroom and bath counts for Whitehall floor plans are not in any government record we read, and wrap-around or corner exposures, while plausible for a two-homes-per-floor tower of this shape, are not verified. We will not publish a room count from a listing description. We show buyers the plans in person, and we ask the association for its floor plans when a sale is under way.
The county’s answer is mechanical: $100,000 more for the second floor than the first, $50,000 more for the third, then $20,000 a floor to the seventh and $50,000 more for the eighth (2026 certified roll, apart from unit 6S). The market’s answer, on four qualified sales since 2016, is that the floor matters less than the home: the record was a third-floor home, the lowest 2026 sale a sixth-floor home. Height at The Whitehall buys a longer Gulf view and more distance from the street; it does not by itself set the price.
Under Florida’s condominium law the association maintains the common elements and the owner maintains the unit, with the declaration drawing the line between them; the Whitehall declaration at OR 554/926 is the document that says where the line falls for windows, balcony surfaces, air conditioning and interior plumbing. The association must carry “adequate property insurance” on the building regardless of what the declaration says (Fla. Stat. §718.111(11)), and each owner carries an HO-6 policy for the interior, contents and loss assessment coverage. Florida sets a floor for that last item: an HO-6 policy must include at least $2,000 of loss assessment coverage (Fla. Stat. §627.714).
A Whitehall renovation is a City of Naples permit, a condominium approval and, in Zone AE, a flood-rule calculation. The City counts a project whose cost reaches 50 percent of the structure’s market value as a substantial improvement that must bring the building into flood compliance (City of Naples, development in the floodplain); in a condominium the structure is the whole building, so a single unit renovation rarely approaches that line, but the association tracks it. Ask the association for its alteration rules and contractor requirements before you plan work, and check the City’s permit portal for the unit’s history (City of Naples permit search).
The Whitehall’s amenities, on the public record, are a pool, an amenity fitness building beside it, an on-site management building with a manager’s residence, two passenger elevators, a ground-level garage, an emergency generator and direct Gulf beach frontage. Everything else a listing may mention, from cabanas to storage, is unverified until the association confirms it.
The City’s records describe “the existing amenity fitness building adjacent to the pool” and “the existing management building also adjacent to the pool” (2023 pre-application form; DRB agenda, 24 January 2024). The 2024 approval put a 600-square-foot generator and mechanical room on top of the fitness building, so the building’s emergency power now sits above flood level beside the pool. Florida exempts a condominium pool serving no more than 32 units from the Department of Health’s supervision except for water quality, which is why no state pool inspection file exists for The Whitehall (Fla. Stat. §514.0115).
The Whitehall has on-site building management quarters. The ground-level living quarters were destroyed in Hurricane Ian, and the 2024 approval allowed a 700-square-foot second-floor management residence on top of the existing management building (DRB agenda). The City’s R3-18 zoning code itself contemplates “one manager’s dwelling” on a tower’s ground floor (Naples Code, Chapter 58, Division 15). The name of any manager or management company is not on a public record we read; the estoppel certificate and the association’s registered agent are the route.
Two hydraulic passenger elevators, 2,500 pounds each, travel 72 and 73 feet over nine landings; both were installed in 1973, both are under a service contract, and both passed state inspection on 1 June 2026 (DBPR elevator extract; DBPR elevator safety public records). Hydraulic elevators of 1973 vintage are a reserve-study item; ask what the structural integrity reserve study and the budget carry for their modernization.
The association’s 2026 structural drawings label an “EXISTING GARAGE” at ground level (26-N1 site plan). How many spaces each home has, whether they are assigned, deeded or limited common elements, and whether guest parking exists are not in any public record we read. The declaration and the estoppel answer it; we confirm it in writing before a buyer’s inspection period ends.
The Whitehall is a Gulf beachfront parcel. FEMA’s coastal high hazard zone, the state’s beach monument R-062 and the Gulf itself lie immediately west of the building (FEMA NFHL; FDEP coastal open data). The lot is described as “500’ x 150’” in the association’s 2023 filing (pre-application form); which dimension is the Gulf frontage is not stated, so we do not publish a frontage figure. Florida’s beaches seaward of the mean high-water line are public, so the sand behind the building is shared with the walkers from Lowdermilk.
Assigned parking counts, guest parking, storage cages, cabanas, beach equipment, a social room, security staffing, a gate, bicycle storage, EV charging and private elevator vestibules are all unverified for The Whitehall. Some appear in listing descriptions; listing descriptions are not a source we publish from. The association, the declaration and a showing settle them.
The Whitehall’s association fees are not published anywhere public: The Whitehall of Naples, Inc. is a condominium association, not an HOA, it has no website, and no recurring assessment figure appears in any record we read. Property taxes are public: the median 2026 certified bill across the 16 homes is $27,316.11.
Every Whitehall owner pays a share of the association’s budget as a regular assessment. We do not publish a figure, because no primary source states one. The two documents that do are the estoppel certificate and the budget. Florida requires the association to deliver an estoppel certificate within 10 business days of a written request, and caps the fee at $299 when the account is current, plus $119 for delivery within three business days and up to $179 more if the account is delinquent; if the association misses the 10-day deadline, it may charge no fee (Fla. Stat. §718.116(8)). The estoppel states the regular assessment, its frequency, any special assessment levied and whether the board must approve the buyer.
No special assessment for The Whitehall appears in any public record we read. That is absence of evidence, not evidence of absence: the association publishes no minutes online and the county lien index is not a source for this page. The building has funded at least two capital projects since Ian, the 2024 rebuild of its service rooms and manager’s quarters above flood level and the 2025 to 2026 rooftop generator design, and how each was paid for, whether from reserves, operating funds, insurance proceeds or a special assessment, is not on the public record. The estoppel certificate and the board minutes answer it.
Measure, 2026 certified roll | Value |
|---|---|
Median total taxes, 16 homes | $27,316.11 |
Lowest | $16,127.06 (8S, homesteaded) |
Highest | $28,855.28 (7N) |
Sum, all 16 homes | $418,430.51 |
Homesteaded homes | 4 of 16 |
Source: Collier County roll, files dated 29 August 2026; our arithmetic. The spread is almost entirely homestead: the four lowest bills belong to the four homesteaded homes, whose assessed values are capped.
A Whitehall residence sits inside the City of Naples and pays about 8.98 mills of total ad valorem tax on the 2026 certified roll: 4.8282 mills non-school and 4.1470 school; the 2025 adopted stack was about 9.05 (Florida Department of Revenue, Collier County Table 1; City of Naples millage page). The Whitehall is on the Gulf side and outside the Moorings Bay Special Taxing District, which reaches only the bay-front parcels of Coquina Sands Unit 2 (City of Naples, Moorings Bay district). There is no community development district anywhere inside the City of Naples.
When a Florida home changes hands it is reassessed at just value on the next 1 January, and the seller’s capped assessment does not transfer (Fla. Stat. §193.155). Non-homestead residential assessments are capped at 10 percent a year, but that cap does not cover school taxes (Fla. Stat. §193.1554), so nearly half of a second-home owner’s bill rides on uncapped value. The underwriting rule for a Whitehall buyer: first full-year taxes are about the purchase price times 0.0089752, less the homestead exemptions if you will homestead. A $3,300,000 purchase runs about $29,618 a year; a $4,900,000 purchase about $43,978 (our arithmetic on the 2026 certified millage).
A buyer who makes a Whitehall home a permanent Florida residence by 1 January and files by 1 March receives the homestead exemption and the Save Our Homes cap, and may carry up to $500,000 of accumulated benefit from a prior Florida homestead (Florida Department of Revenue, portability guidance PT-112; homestead exemption PT-113). Four Whitehall owners do this today.
The Whitehall’s layered costs are simpler than most Naples condominiums’: one condominium association, no master association, no community development district and no mandatory neighborhood fee. The layers a Whitehall owner does carry are the association assessment, property taxes, the owner’s own HO-6 and flood cover, and City utilities.
Layer | At The Whitehall | Where it is published |
|---|---|---|
Condominium assessment | Applies; amount not published | Estoppel certificate and budget, Fla. Stat. §718.503 |
Special assessments | None found on the public record; confirm | Estoppel certificate |
Master association | None | Coquina Sands has no mandatory association |
Coquina Sands Association | $90 a year per household, voluntary | |
Community development district | None | |
Ad valorem taxes | About 8.98 mills, median bill $27,316.11 | Collier County roll |
Moorings Bay district | Does not apply on the Gulf side | |
Unit-owner insurance | HO-6 plus loss assessment; Collier average $3,545 a year including wind |
The Coquina Sands Association is a Florida not-for-profit corporation, document 745253, with $90-a-year voluntary membership and no lien authority; it is not a homeowners association and no Whitehall owner is required to join (Coquina Sands Association; Fla. Stat. §720.301). Its officers are drawn from the single-family streets and the Gulf Shore Boulevard buildings alike, and it follows the redevelopment of the boulevard closely.
The association’s master policy premium, deductible and flood coverage are not public; they are in the budget and the insurance declarations Florida requires a seller to deliver. What is public: Collier County’s average condominium unit-owner premium including wind was $3,545 a year as of 31 March 2025, against $1,858 excluding wind (FLOIR Property Insurance Stability Report); a Gulf-front unit with a high interior value will run above the county average. The National Flood Insurance Program caps a condominium building policy at the lesser of replacement cost or $250,000 times the number of units (FEMA flood insurance), which for sixteen units is $4,000,000 of building coverage (our arithmetic); any excess flood layer the association buys is in its declarations.
City of Naples water, sewer and solid waste, and Florida Power and Light for electric. Whether utilities are billed to the association or to each unit is a budget question for the estoppel. The City publishes its utility and stormwater rates, and its stormwater rate is scheduled to rise in 2026 (City of Naples Solid Waste Division; Gulfshore Business, stormwater rate plan).
Add the regular assessment from the estoppel, any special assessment balance, a first-year tax estimate at the purchase price, an HO-6 quote with loss assessment coverage, a flood quote if your lender requires one, and utilities. At The Whitehall two of those numbers, the assessment and the insurance, are only knowable from the association’s documents, so we request them before the inspection period, not after.
The Whitehall is governed by its Declaration of Condominium, recorded in Official Records Book 554, Pages 926 to 980, together with the association’s articles, bylaws, rules and any recorded amendments, all read against Chapter 718 of the Florida Statutes. None of these documents is published online; a seller must deliver them to a buyer.
Document | Where it is | How a buyer gets it |
|---|---|---|
Declaration of Condominium | OR 554, Pages 926 to 980, Collier County Clerk | From the seller under §718.503, or a certified copy from the Clerk |
Amendments to the declaration | Recorded after 1972, if any; Collier County Clerk | Title search; the seller’s document package |
Articles of incorporation | The Whitehall of Naples, Inc., Florida Division of Corporations, document 724472 | Sunbiz and the seller |
Bylaws, rules and regulations | Association records | The seller, under §718.503(2)(a) |
Budget and financial statement | Association records | The seller, under §718.503(2)(a) |
Milestone inspection summary | Association records | The seller, under §718.503(2)(a), “if applicable” |
Structural integrity reserve study | Association records | The seller, or a statement that none was completed |
On a Whitehall resale, each prospective purchaser is entitled, at the seller’s expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, “A copy of the inspector-prepared summary of the milestone inspection report as described in s. 553.899, if applicable”, “The association’s most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that the association has not completed a structural integrity reserve study”, and the association’s frequently asked questions document (Fla. Stat. §718.503(2)(a)). If those documents are not delivered more than seven days, excluding weekends and legal holidays, before the buyer signs, the contract is voidable by the buyer by written notice within seven days after the buyer receives them. For a seller that is a timing rule; for a buyer it is a safety valve.
Many Florida condominiums of The Whitehall’s age require the board to approve a sale or reserve a right of first refusal. Whether The Whitehall’s declaration does, and on what timetable, is not on any public record we read. The estoppel certificate states whether board approval is required, and the declaration states the process. Build the approval window into the contract, not after it.
Leasing minimums, pet limits, vehicle rules and alteration procedures at The Whitehall are set by the declaration and the rules, and no public source states them. We do not publish a figure for any of them. Two outside rules do apply regardless of the documents, and we cover them in the rental section: the City’s zoning bar on transient lodging, and Florida’s protection of existing owners when a rental amendment passes.
A sixteen-owner association amends its documents with very few votes, which cuts both ways: a determined majority can change a rule quickly, and a single owner’s objection weighs more than it would in a 200-unit tower. Florida protects owners from one kind of change in particular: an amendment that prohibits or restricts renting applies only to owners who consent and to owners who take title after it takes effect (Fla. Stat. §718.110(13)).
The Whitehall of Naples, Inc. is run by an elected board of owners, and its president signed the association’s April 2026 petition to the City on behalf of the board (26-N1 application). The state’s record lists the association itself, at the building’s address, as the managing entity, with no outside management company named (DBPR condominium projects extract). The current officers are on the Florida Division of Corporations record; we do not publish owner names.
The Whitehall is not a registered 55+ community on any public record we read. No age restriction appears in the state’s condominium record, the City’s filings or the county roll, and Coquina Sands has no age-restricted housing designation. Whether the declaration limits occupancy by age is answered by the declaration itself.
A Florida condominium can operate as housing for older persons only if it meets the federal Housing for Older Persons Act, which requires, among other things, that at least 80 percent of occupied units have at least one resident aged 55 or older and that the community publish and follow policies showing that intent. A building that does not meet those tests cannot lawfully exclude families with children. Nothing in The Whitehall’s public record suggests it operates as 55+ housing; ask the association in writing if age is a factor in your purchase.
The public record describes ownership, not age. In practice The Whitehall reads as a seasonal building, without being an age-restricted one.
Renting a Whitehall condo is governed first by the declaration and rules, which are not published, and then by two public rules: the City of Naples bars transient lodging in the R3-18 zoning district, and Florida law protects current owners from new rental restrictions they did not vote for.
The Whitehall sits in the City’s R3-18 multifamily district, and the ordinance that created that district on this stretch of the boulevard says R3-18 “does not permit transient lodging as a permitted use” (Ordinance 02-9497). The City does not run a short-term rental permit program; it enforces through its definition of a transient lodging facility, with a published 30-day minimum and a narrow exception allowing a rental of under 30 days no more than three times in a calendar year, and it prohibits advertising a property as available for less than 30 days (City of Naples, short-term rental and code compliance handout; Code Compliance FAQ). City of Naples properties do not register with Collier County’s short-term rental program (Collier County short-term vacation rental registration).
Whether The Whitehall’s declaration sets a longer minimum lease, limits the number of leases a year, requires board approval of tenants or bars leasing in the first years of ownership is in the declaration and rules, which we do not have in public form. The estoppel certificate and the document package answer it. A buyer who plans to rent should read the leasing article before signing, not after closing.
If the owners amend the declaration to prohibit rentals, change the rental term or limit how often a unit may be rented, the amendment applies only to owners who consent and to owners who acquire title after it takes effect (Fla. Stat. §718.110(13)). A buyer takes title under the rules in force at closing, including any amendment passed before it.
Rentals of six months or less owe Florida sales tax and Collier County’s tourist development tax on the rent. A seasonal Whitehall lease of three months, which the City’s rules allow, is inside that window.
The Whitehall’s pet rules are set by its declaration and rules and are not published in any public record we read, so we do not state a limit, a size or a breed rule. What is public is the City’s beach rule: no dogs on City of Naples beaches, including the beach behind the building.
Nothing, for the building itself. The declaration at OR 554/926 and the association’s rules decide whether pets are allowed, how many, and whether tenants may keep them. Ask for the pet provisions in writing with the document package; a pet rule is one of the few that can end a purchase outright.
The City of Naples prohibits animals on its beaches, and the Naples Police Beach Patrol lists pets on the beach among its enforced prohibitions (Naples Police Beach Patrol). Dog owners in Coquina Sands use the Naples Dog Park on Riverside Circle, the leashed loop at Baker Park and the Gordon River Greenway, each roughly two miles east (Baker Park; Gordon River Greenway).
Florida and federal fair housing law require a condominium to make reasonable accommodations for service animals and emotional support animals regardless of a no-pets rule, and Florida sets out what documentation an association may request. A pet rule in the declaration does not override that.
The Whitehall is on the City of Naples 2024 milestone inspection list as a nine-story, 1974 building, so its first milestone inspection was due by 31 December 2024, and as a three-story-plus condominium it owed a structural integrity reserve study by 31 December 2025. The City publishes which buildings must inspect, not the results.
Florida requires a milestone inspection of every condominium or cooperative building of “three habitable stories or more in height” by 31 December of the year the building reaches 30 years of age, and every 10 years after; a building that reached 30 before 1 July 2022 had to complete its initial inspection before 31 December 2024 (Fla. Stat. §553.899). The City of Naples lists “WHITEHALL, THE A CONDOMINIUM, 1255 GULF SHORE BLVD N” with 9 stories and 1974 on its 2024 list (City of Naples 2024 milestone buildings), and its program page applies the rule to buildings “three stories or more in height” (City of Naples milestone inspections). Phase one is a visual examination; phase two follows only if the inspector finds substantial structural deterioration. Within 45 days the association must give every owner the inspector’s summary.
Whether The Whitehall’s milestone inspection was completed, whether it triggered a phase two, and what it recommended are not published by the City and were not on any record we could read. We do not report a completion date or a result. The next ten-year cycle would fall about 2034 if the initial inspection was completed on schedule; we do not publish a year without the City’s record. The seller’s inspector-prepared summary is the document that answers all of it, and Florida law entitles a resale buyer to it.
Associations that existed on or before 1 July 2022 “must have a structural integrity reserve study completed by December 31, 2025, for each building on the condominium property that is three stories or higher in height”, and an association whose milestone inspection is due on or before 31 December 2026 may complete the study with the inspection (Fla. Stat. §718.112(2)(g)). The study must cover the roof, structure, fireproofing and fire protection, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and exterior painting, windows and exterior doors, and any other item over the indexed deferred-maintenance threshold. The state’s SIRS database lists associations that reported before July 2025; The Whitehall’s status there is not verified (DBPR SIRS reporting and database; DBPR condominium inspections).
For budgets adopted on or after 31 December 2024, owners may no longer vote to waive or reduce reserves for the study’s structural components. The 2025 law, HB 913, added flexibility for older buildings: structural reserves may be funded by regular or special assessments, lines of credit or loans; a board may borrow to fund milestone repairs without a further owner vote if the loan is disclosed; and an association that completed a milestone inspection in the prior two years may pause reserve contributions for up to two budgets to fund the recommended repairs (HB 913 of 2025). At a sixteen-owner building every one of those choices lands on sixteen households, so it matters which the board made.
No balcony or facade concrete restoration project for The Whitehall appears in the City’s Design Review Board or Planning Advisory Board records, state coastal permits or local news we searched; the City filings found concern the hurricane-damaged service buildings and the rooftop generator, not the tower’s concrete. That is absence of evidence only. The City’s permit portal carries the building’s permit history, and the milestone summary and reserve study describe the tower’s condition (City of Naples permit search).
Ask for the phase one milestone report and the inspector’s summary; the phase two report if one was triggered; the structural integrity reserve study or the association’s statement that none was completed; the current budget showing reserve funding for each structural component; whether the board has approved a special assessment, line of credit or loan; whether it has paused reserve contributions; and the permits pulled to carry out any recommended repairs. At The Whitehall add two items: what the budget carries for the 1973 hydraulic elevators, and how the 2024 service-building rebuild and the rooftop generator were, or will be, paid for.
The Whitehall sits in FEMA Zone AE, base flood elevation 10 feet NAVD88, on panel 12021C0391J, effective 8 February 2024, with the coastal high hazard VE zone beginning on the beach about 85 feet west. Hurricane Ian destroyed its ground-level service rooms and manager’s quarters; the City approved their rebuild above flood level in 2024.
We queried FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer on 26 September 2026 at seven points across The Whitehall’s footprint and to its east and west (FEMA NFHL, flood hazard zones).
Point | Where | Zone | Base flood elevation |
|---|---|---|---|
East of the footprint | drive and Gulf Shore Blvd N side | AE | 10.0 ft NAVD88 |
Footprint east face | City address point | AE | 10.0 ft |
Footprint centroid | the tower | AE | 10.0 ft |
Footprint west face | Gulf side of the tower | AE | 10.0 ft |
About 70 ft west | the grounds | AE | 10.0 ft |
About 100 ft west | the beach | VE | 11.0 ft |
Farther seaward | the beach | VE | 14.0 ft |
The effective map is FIRM panel 12021C0391J, effective 8 February 2024 (FEMA NFHL, FIRM panels). No Letter of Map Amendment or Revision touches the parcel. The City defines Zone AE as “an area subject to inundation by the 1% annual chance flood” with wave heights under three feet, and Zone VE as “a Coastal high hazard area” where “wave action and/or high-velocity water can cause structural damage” (City of Naples flood zone maps). The association’s 2026 structural drawing labels the first floor at 11.00 feet NAVD; that is a drawing label, not an elevation certificate, and we do not publish a lowest-floor elevation without one (26-N1 site plan).
FEMA issued a preliminary flood insurance rate map for Collier County and the City of Naples on 20 March 2025; Collier County opened a 90-day appeal period on 19 August 2026, with a target effective date of summer 2027 (Collier County, proposed flood map notice). We did not check The Whitehall’s preliminary zone for this edition; any buyer can on FEMA’s viewer (FEMA Flood Map Changes Viewer).
The state’s generalized Coastal Construction Control Line runs east of the building at this latitude, which places The Whitehall seaward of it on the state’s map; confirm on a survey (FDEP CCCL layer). The beach here is inside the state’s “South of Doctor’s Pass” critically eroded segment, and no state CCCL permit lists 1255 as its location (FDEP coastal open data). Collier County scheduled Naples Beach for critical renourishment in November 2026 and asked beachfront owners and associations for temporary easements to place sand (Collier County renourishment notice); how The Whitehall’s board answered is a fair question for a buyer.
Hurricane Ian made landfall on 28 September 2022; the NOAA gauge at the Naples Pier recorded 6.18 feet above mean higher high water before it failed, and the National Hurricane Center reports inundation of 6 to 9 feet above ground in Naples (NHC Tropical Cyclone Report, Hurricane Ian). At The Whitehall, the association’s filing with the City records the damage: “Building services including the electric room, generator room, and building management living quarters were destroyed during Hurricane Ian as those areas were located below flood level. This application is to relocate those areas/services to above flood at the second-floor elevation” (2023 pre-application form). No damage to the tower’s residences appears on any public record we read; the permit history and the association’s insurance claims record are the route.
The City’s Design Review Board approved Petition 24-DRB3 on 24 January 2024 by a 4 to 0 vote: a 600-square-foot generator and mechanical room on top of the fitness building and a 700-square-foot second-floor management residence on top of the management building, designed by MHK Architecture (DRB agenda; DRB minutes). The association’s president told the board the owners “preferred to construct structures that will withstand another hurricane event.” For a buyer, that is the most useful fact in the record: the systems that failed in Ian were moved up, not put back where they were.
Hurricane Irma, 10 September 2017, pushed the Naples gauge to 4.25 feet above mean higher high water (NHC report, Hurricane Irma), and the association testified that its service buildings were first damaged then. Helene and Milton in 2024 brought flooding to parts of the City (NHC report, Helene; NHC report, Milton); no Whitehall-specific damage from either appears in the City records we read. The Naples gauge’s long record shows sea level rising 3.35 millimetres a year from 1965 to 2023 (NOAA sea level trends, Naples).
The City’s wind map places 1255 Gulf Shore Blvd N in the 170-mile-per-hour ultimate design wind speed zone for Risk Category II buildings, and the association’s 2026 generator drawings are designed to “V-ULT = 170 MPH, EXP D” (City of Naples GIS wind speed layer; 26-N1 drawings). The rooftop generator specified is rated for 186-mile-per-hour wind load.
The association must carry adequate property insurance on the building (Fla. Stat. §718.111(11)); its carrier, deductible and premium are in the documents a seller delivers, not in public. Because the building is in Zone AE, a federally backed mortgage requires flood coverage, and a new NFIP policy carries a 30-day waiting period, so build it into the closing calendar (FEMA flood insurance). The City of Naples is a Community Rating System Class 5 community, worth a 25 percent NFIP discount inside the special flood hazard area (FEMA Community Status Book, Florida; FEMA Community Rating System). Statewide, 94.52 percent of condominium unit-owner policies were written in the voluntary market in the first quarter of 2025, with Citizens holding the rest (FLOIR stability report). Wind mitigation credits on an HO-6 depend on documented opening protection; ask for the unit’s window and door permits (FLOIR wind mitigation resources).
The City’s evacuation layer returned no zone at the building’s point in our query, so we do not state one. Collier County’s Know Your Zone lookup, by address, is the authority, and a Gulf-front owner should check it before the season starts.
The Whitehall is zoned to Lake Park Elementary, Gulfview Middle and Naples High School for 2026-27, the three Collier County public schools that serve all of Coquina Sands, and all three carry a Florida Department of Education grade of A for 2025-26. Confirm any address with the district’s zone tool.

The Lake Park zone runs down the whole Gulf-front strip from The Moorings through Coquina Sands and Old Naples; we did not run 1255 through the district tool separately, so run your exact address before you rely on it (CCPS attendance boundaries).
Naples High offers Cambridge AICE and Advanced Placement, including the AP Capstone Diploma (Naples High advanced studies). Collier runs controlled open enrollment, called Parental Choice, with no district transportation for choice students (CCPS Parental Choice). With three A-rated zoned schools, most Whitehall owners will not need it.
St. Ann Catholic School on Eighth Avenue South is the closest private school to Coquina Sands, about 2.3 miles away, followed by The Village School of Naples and Seacrest Country Day School, each within about six miles (St. Ann admissions; Seacrest tuition). Tuition and admissions are the schools’ to confirm.
The Whitehall is zoned R3-18 multifamily by the City of Naples, a district that caps height at 75 feet, and the City treats the nine-story tower as an “Existing Nonconforming Condominium Building”. Its public petitions are 24-DRB3, approved in 2024, and 26-N1, a 2026 rooftop generator request whose outcome is unverified.
Item | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
Zoning | R3-18 Multifamily, Ordinance 02-9497 | |
Future land use | Residential, High Density Mid Rise | |
District purpose | “an apartment district in which the city’s tallest buildings are permitted” | |
Maximum height | 75 feet, plus 12 feet only if 75% of the ground floor is parking, no ground-floor units except one manager’s dwelling, and the structure is not subject to the coastal construction control line | Naples Code §58-448 |
Density | 18 dwelling units per net acre | Naples Code §58-451 |
Minimum lot | 25,000 sq ft, 150 feet wide | Naples Code §58-444, §58-445 |

Neighborhood | Coquina Sands |
The association’s 2026 drawings show a mean roof height of 80 feet and an existing roof at 86.00 feet NAVD against the district’s 75-foot cap (26-N1 drawings). A nine-story Gulf-front tower of this height could not be built new under today’s R3-18 rules, so the building’s legal nonconforming status is part of what an owner owns. It also means any change that expands the nonconformity needs a City petition, as the generator did. What the City’s nonconformity rules allow after a major casualty is a question to put to the City’s planning staff for this parcel before relying on it; Florida’s SB 180 of 2025 also freezes more burdensome or restrictive local land-use measures, retroactive to 1 August 2024, through 1 October 2027 (SB 180 of 2025).
Final design review for the generator and mechanical room over the fitness building and the second-floor management residence over the management building, approved 24 January 2024 with a landscape-screening condition toward Via Delfino (DRB agenda; DRB minutes). The pre-application form records zero new dwelling units (pre-application form).
A nonconformity petition to place a Kohler KG180 generator on the roof, with the generator’s top at 89 feet 6 inches above finished floor, filed by the association in April 2026 and heard by the Planning Advisory Board as item 7.E on 9 September 2026 (26-N1 application; PAB agenda; PAB upcoming items). The generator renderings are published by the City (26-N1 generator renderings). The board’s recommendation and any City Council vote were not retrievable for this edition, and we do not report an outcome. Check the City Clerk’s board records before you rely on it (City of Naples 2026 board agendas).
The association’s 2023 filing gives the parcel as 75,000 square feet, “500’ x 150’”; its 2026 filing gives 52,500 square feet, 1.2 acres; the City’s GIS parcel computes to about 1.74 acres. The difference most likely lies in how much of the beach each figure counts, but no record we read reconciles them, so we publish all three with their sources and no conclusion.
The City’s permit history for 1255 was not pulled for this edition. Look there for the milestone report submission, the post-2024 generator and electrical rebuild permits, roof, window and impact-glass permits, and any concrete work (City of Naples permit search).
Near The Whitehall, Coquina Sands is in the largest redevelopment cycle in its history: Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort opened in November 2025 about 0.3 mile south, Olana Naples is approved at 1121 Gulf Shore Boulevard North, Rosewood Residences Naples is under construction at 1601, and Harbour House is approved at 1624 to 1672.
The 125-acre former Naples Beach Hotel and Golf Club, bought in October 2021 by a joint venture of The Athens Group and MSD Partners, reopened as Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort on 17 November 2025, with 220 guest accommodations and 153 residences planned in total (Four Seasons opening release; PR Newswire, acquisition announcement). Its golf course is due in 2027. A perpetual conservation easement signed on 29 June 2022 and held by the North American Land Trust protects 104.6 acres, 84 percent of the site, from development (City of Naples, conservation easement). For a Whitehall owner the resort is a dining, spa and tennis neighbor about 0.3 mile south, not an amenity included with the condominium.
Twelve estate residences over six stories, more than 10,000 square feet each, from $30 million, by Kolter Urban with BH Group, on the Gulf side south of Via Delfino; approved and selling, pre-construction (Kolter Urban, Olana Naples). It sits in the R3T-18 district, a different zoning from The Whitehall’s.
Forty-two residences in two buildings of six residential floors over parking, $12.75 million to $45 million, by The Ronto Group with Rosewood Hotels and Resorts; topped off on 1 August 2025, with completion targeted for late 2026 (The Ronto Group, Rosewood Residences Naples; Gulfshore Business).
Fourteen residences in three two-story buildings over garages on the bay side, $6.5 million to $10 million, with unanimous Design Review Board approval on 25 March 2026 (Gulfshore Business, Harbour House).
New Gulf-front product priced at $30 million and up a few hundred yards away does two things for a 1974 building of 3,000-square-foot homes. It confirms the land value under the boulevard, and it widens the gap between new and existing product, which is why The Whitehall’s buyer is usually someone who wants the Gulf-front address at a fraction of new-construction pricing. It also means construction traffic on Gulf Shore Boulevard North through 2027. The City’s $86 million beach outfall and water quality project, the largest capital project in its history, runs along the boulevard from Oleander Drive south (Naples beach improvements; City of Naples beach outfalls).
The City’s Naples 2045 comprehensive plan rewrite is open for public comment until 23 October 2026, and Coquina Sands is a named neighborhood on the comment form (Naples 2045). A Whitehall owner can file a comment directly.
Daily life at The Whitehall runs on short distances: the beach behind the building, Lowdermilk Park 0.12 mile away in a straight line, NCH Baker Hospital about four minutes by car, Fifth Avenue South about six minutes, and Naples Airport about eleven, all measured from 1255 Gulf Shore Boulevard North in free-flow traffic.

Lowdermilk Park is the City’s beachfront park at 1301 Gulf Shore Boulevard North, open 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., with restrooms, showers, a concession grill, gazebos, volleyball and beach wheelchairs; it and the Naples Pier are the only City beach locations with full restrooms (City of Naples, Lowdermilk Park). The City has moved to replace the playground lost in Hurricane Ian, and its capital plan carries $1,545,000 for Lowdermilk improvements (WINK News, Lowdermilk playground). For a Whitehall owner it is a walk up the beach, not a drive.
Lowdermilk is metered at $5.00 an hour with a $2.50 minimum, and vehicles with a valid City or County beach parking permit park free; Collier County property taxpayers and full-time residents are eligible for an annual permit, which City residents obtain at City Hall, 735 8th Street South (City of Naples beach parking information; beach parking permits). A Whitehall owner walking out the back door does not need one for the beach; guests driving in do.
The Naples Pier is closed for reconstruction, with reopening targeted for July 2027, and several beach ends south of Coquina Sands are closed for the outfall project; Lowdermilk remains open and carries more of the load (City of Naples, Naples Pier rebuild; public beach accesses).
The Four Seasons’ restaurants are the nearest dining, about 0.3 mile south; Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South, downtown Naples’ dining and shopping streets, are about two miles south, and Waterside Shops about four and a half miles north. City of Naples Police, with a dedicated Beach Patrol, and City Fire-Rescue serve the building (Naples Police Beach Patrol).
NCH Baker Hospital, 350 7th Street North, with a 24-hour emergency department, is 1.29 road miles from The Whitehall. The nearest state-designated Level II trauma center is Gulf Coast Medical Center in Fort Myers, about 27 road miles from Coquina Sands, which matters for a full-time owner of advanced age and less for a seasonal one.
Fleischmann Park, the Naples Preserve boardwalk, Baker Park on the Gordon River and the free River Park Aquatic Center are all within about two miles (Fleischmann Park; Naples Preserve; River Park Aquatic Center). Boaters launch at Naples Landing, about two miles away (Naples Landing Park and boat launch).
The Whitehall compares with its Coquina Sands siblings as a small Gulf-front tower: 16 homes against Via Delfino’s 24 and Embassy Club’s 36, a median county value of $3,155,000 against $4,216,800 next door, and a 36-month recorded median of $3,912,500, second among the towers below only to Via Delfino.
Yardstick: the Collier County roll, tax year 2026 certified (file dated 27 October 2026), for units and median just value per parcel, and the sales file dated 29 August 2026 for qualified sales in the 36 months to that date; the City of Naples milestone lists for stories and year built.
Building | Address | Form | Units on roll | Stories | Year built | Median just value per parcel | Qualified sales, 36 months: n / median | City milestone list |

Surfside Club | 1065 Gulf Shore Blvd N | Condominium | 64 | 2 | about 1962 to 1963 | $792,000 | 2 / $1,987,500 | not subject |
Del Mar Club | 1300 Gulf Shore Blvd N | Cooperative, Chapter 719 | 83 roll parcels | 7, two buildings | 1966 | $422,500 | 6 / $518,750 | 2024 |
Sources: Collier County roll and sales file; City of Naples 2024 milestone list and 2029 list. Del Mar Club is a cooperative, so its roll parcels describe co-op interests, not condominium units, and its figures are not like-for-like with the condominium rows; it is included for location, not price.
On the county’s yardstick The Whitehall sits between the bay-side and older Gulf towers and the newest product. Via Delfino next door is sixteen years newer, its homes 3,785 to 3,955 square feet, and it carries a higher county value and a higher recorded median. Embassy Club of Naples, the ten-story tower at the north end of the neighborhood, has more than twice The Whitehall’s homes at about half its county value per parcel. Charleston Square across the boulevard is a three-story 2004 building on the bay side, and Naples Casamore is a condominium of detached bay-side villas with private docks. Surfside Club is a two-story Gulf-front condominium of 64 homes, and Del Mar Club across the street is the neighborhood’s largest cooperative. The other Gulf-front neighbors, Colonial Club at 1275 and The Laurentians at 1285, sit between The Whitehall and Lowdermilk Park.
On the 2026 certified roll, The Whitehall’s median just value per county square foot is $1,052; Via Delfino’s is $1,105 (our arithmetic on each building’s county area). On recorded sales in the 36 months to 29 August 2026, The Whitehall’s four qualified sales ran $1,042 to $1,633 per county square foot, and Via Delfino’s four ran $925 to $1,584. Same source, same metric, same window: the two buildings trade in the same per-foot band, and Via Delfino’s higher prices come mostly from its larger homes.
The Whitehall vs Via Delfino is the choice between two nine-story Gulf-front condominiums next door to each other on Gulf Shore Boulevard North: The Whitehall has 16 homes of 3,000 square feet, built in 1974, and Via Delfino has 24 homes of about 3,800 to 3,950 square feet, built in 1990.

Choose The Whitehall if you want fewer neighbors, sixteen households and one other home on your floor; a lower entry on the county’s numbers; uniform 3,000-square-foot homes on every floor, so the choice is height and condition; a building with recent market activity, two qualified deeds in 2026; and an association that has already moved its critical systems above flood level after Ian and is pursuing a rooftop generator.
Choose Via Delfino if you want a larger home, about 800 to 950 more square feet on the roll; a building sixteen years newer, with traction elevators installed in 1988; a higher recorded ceiling, a $7,300,000 record and a $5,212,500 36-month median; and a building with a higher share of year-round owners, 46 percent homesteaded.
Both are nine-story Gulf-front condominiums in R3-18, both were on the City’s 2024 milestone list, both are about a two-to-five-minute walk from Lowdermilk Park, both are zoned to the same A-rated schools, and both answer to Florida’s same condominium, milestone and reserve-study laws. For either one, the milestone summary, the reserve study and the insurance declarations decide more than the address does.

The Whitehall’s pros are a Gulf beachfront address, sixteen neighbors, two homes to a floor and an association that rebuilt its storm-damaged systems above flood level. Its cons are a 1974 structure, unpublished fees and rules, 1973 hydraulic elevators, a nonconforming height and a thin market that makes pricing hard.
If the pros outweigh the cons for you, the next step is a specific home and its documents.

If you’re searching for a Whitehall listing agent, or thinking, ‘I need someone to sell my Whitehall home…’ start here. We tracked every recorded Whitehall deed through 29 August 2026; McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, price your home from that record.
Data updated: October 2026 (Collier County recorded sales through 29 August 2026; newest recorded Whitehall sale 29 April 2026)
The Whitehall is a building where a seller has few comparables and a great deal to explain. Four qualified sales in 36 months, two very different price pairs, three unqualified deeds a buyer’s agent will find, a 1974 structure under Florida’s new condominium safety laws, and a rooftop generator petition whose outcome a buyer will ask about. As the leaders of Domain Realty Group our team has closed over $2.5 billion in real estate, and Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar account for over $900 million in personal sales inside that number. We bring that reach to a Whitehall listing along with the file a Whitehall buyer will ask for.
Honors and recognition:
The county’s 12-month window holds two qualified Whitehall sales and the 36-month window four, so we list them instead of leaning on a median. Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 26 September 2026: 5 closings at The Whitehall in the last 60 months, at a median of $4,200,000.
The county adds $280,000 from the first floor to the eighth. The market added far more than that for the two homes that sold in February 2024 and less for the two that sold in April 2026. Condition, finishes, furnishings, the season and the buyer pool each move a Whitehall price more than the floor does, and none of them is in the county’s file. We price your home against the four qualified sales, the county’s floor values, Via Delfino’s recorded sales next door and the wider Gulf-front market, and we tell you which of those your buyer will lean on.
Start with a free Whitehall home valuation. It takes about a minute, and Jesse follows up with the Whitehall sales that actually fit your home: the same stack, a comparable floor, adjusted for renovation, furnishings and terms. An online automated estimate reads the county’s floor values; it cannot read a renovation, a view or a board’s reserve plan. We price to the record.
(239) 898-6072, text or call. Confidential conversations welcome.
For a home priced to the building’s recorded sales, yes. Naples Beach area condominium supply fell to 7.1 months in July 2026 from 11.9 a year earlier (NABOR July 2026 statistics), and listing in the fall reaches the winter buyer pool. Priced off the 2024 record, a Whitehall home will wait.
As a check, not as the basis. Via Delfino’s homes are 785 to 955 square feet larger and the building is fifteen to sixteen years newer; per county square foot the two buildings trade in the same band. Your buyer will raise Via Delfino; your price should rest on The Whitehall’s own four deeds.
On the county roll, the eighth, at $3,265,000. On recorded sales, the record is a third-floor home at $4,900,000, and the highest 2026 sale was also a third-floor home. Condition has mattered more than height.
Disclose what you know accurately. The petition is a public record, and the outcome is a question a buyer will ask. We confirm its status with the association and the City before listing.
About as long as the documents take. The estoppel has a 10-business-day clock, the buyer’s seven-day document review runs from delivery, and any board approval in the declaration adds its own window. A cash sale with documents ready can close in about a month.
The Whitehall’s owners and buyers work directly with Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, not with a call center. The two have sold Southwest Florida real estate for more than twenty years, and before writing this guide they read The Whitehall’s state records, the City’s petitions, the flood map at the building and every Whitehall deed since 1973.

These questions about buying at The Whitehall are answered from the state’s condominium and elevator records, the association’s filings with the City of Naples, FEMA’s flood map, the City’s zoning code and milestone list, and the Collier County roll and sales file dated 29 August 2026. Where the record stops, the answer says so.

At 1255 Gulf Shore Boulevard North, Naples, FL 34102, on the Gulf side of the street in the Coquina Sands neighborhood of the City of Naples. Via Delfino is next door to the south, Colonial Club and The Laurentians are next to the north, and Lowdermilk Park begins at 1301. The address is 1255, not 1225, whatever a website says.
Yes. The building sits on the west, Gulf side of Gulf Shore Boulevard North, FEMA’s coastal high hazard zone begins on the beach about 85 feet west of the tower, and the state’s beach monument R-062 plots just southwest of it (FDEP coastal open data). Owners reach the sand without crossing a street.
Sixteen, two per floor on floors 1 through 8. The association’s own 2026 petition says “Sixteen condominiums” and the county roll carries 16 unit parcels (26-N1 application). The state’s registration record from 1972 lists 17; no public document we read explains the difference, and the recorded declaration governs.
Nine stories, according to the City of Naples 2024 milestone list (City of Naples). Its two elevators serve nine landings, and the homes are numbered on floors 1 through 8, which fits a ground level with the garage and eight residential floors above.
The City and the county both date the building to 1974. The condominium was declared on 3 October 1972, the elevators were installed in 1973, and the first unit deeds recorded in December 1973 and January 1974.
Every Whitehall home is carried at 3,000 square feet of base and adjusted area on the Collier County roll. Bedroom and bath counts are not in any public record we read; we confirm them from the association’s plans or in person.
No. The Whitehall has two homes per floor, North and South, on each of its eight residential floors. The unit numbers, 1N and 1S through 8N and 8S, say so, and the county roll carries both homes on every floor.
In the 36 months to 29 August 2026, four qualified resales recorded at a median of $3,912,500, from $3,125,000 to $4,900,000. The two most recent, in April 2026, were $3,300,000 for 3N and $3,125,000 for 6S (Collier County sales file). Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 26 September 2026: 5 closings at The Whitehall in the last 60 months, at a median of $4,200,000.
$4,900,000 for unit 3S, recorded 14 February 2024, Official Records Book 6336, Page 1436, county-qualified. That is $1,633 per county square foot and the highest amount of any kind on the Whitehall roll.
Yes. The City’s 2023 and 2024 records describe “the existing amenity fitness building adjacent to the pool” and a management building also beside it (DRB agenda).
It has an amenity fitness building beside the pool, on the City’s record. Since the 2024 approval, the generator and mechanical room sit on top of it, above flood level.
The association’s 2026 structural drawings label an existing garage at ground level (26-N1 drawings). How many spaces each home has, and whether they are assigned or deeded, is in the declaration and the estoppel, not in any public record.
Two hydraulic passenger elevators, state certificates 12088 and 12089, each serving nine landings, installed in 1973 and inspected on 1 June 2026, with certificates valid to 1 August 2027 (DBPR elevator extract).
The Whitehall is a condominium association, not an HOA, and its regular assessment is not published anywhere public. The estoppel certificate and the budget state it, and a seller must deliver the budget (Fla. Stat. §718.503).
Not online. The association has no website, and Florida’s website rule applies only to associations of 25 or more units. The route is an estoppel certificate, which the association must deliver within 10 business days for a capped fee (Fla. Stat. §718.116).
None appears in any public record we read, but that is absence of evidence. The association funded a post-Ian rebuild of its service rooms and is pursuing a rooftop generator; how each was paid for is not public. The estoppel discloses any special assessment levied.
The public record does not say. The Whitehall is on the City’s 2024 list, so its inspection was due by 31 December 2024, but the City publishes the requirement, not the results (City of Naples milestone inspections). A resale buyer is entitled to the inspector’s summary.
Condominium and cooperative buildings three habitable stories or more in height, by 31 December of the year they reach 30 years of age and every ten years after; buildings that reached 30 before 1 July 2022 had until 31 December 2024 (Fla. Stat. §553.899). The Whitehall is one of them.
Not verified. The law required one by 31 December 2025, or with a milestone inspection due by the end of 2026 (Fla. Stat. §718.112). A buyer is entitled to the study, or to the association’s statement that it has not completed one.
It depends on the building and the engineer, and no figure for The Whitehall is public. What matters to a buyer is not the study’s cost but what it finds: the funding it requires for the roof, structure, fireproofing, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, windows and doors.
Zone AE with a base flood elevation of 10 feet NAVD88, on FIRM panel 12021C0391J, effective 8 February 2024, measured across the building’s footprint (FEMA NFHL).
The building is not; the grounds and the beach west of it are. FEMA’s VE zone, with an 11-foot base flood elevation, begins about 85 feet west of the tower’s west face, and farther out the beach is VE 14.
Yes, at ground level. The association’s filing with the City says the electric room, generator room and management living quarters “were destroyed during Hurricane Ian as those areas were located below flood level” (2023 pre-application form). The City approved rebuilding them above flood level in January 2024.
About 0.12 mile in a straight line to the park’s southern parcel and 0.26 road mile by car, a 1.4-minute drive or a few minutes’ walk up the beach (City of Naples, Lowdermilk Park).
Yes. Lowdermilk Park is a City of Naples park, open 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., with restrooms, showers and a concession grill.
Visitors pay the meter, $5.00 an hour with a $2.50 minimum. Vehicles with a valid City or County beach parking permit park free (City of Naples beach parking).
Subject to the declaration and rules, which set the leasing terms and are not published. The City bars transient lodging in the R3-18 district, with a 30-day minimum and a narrow three-times-a-year exception, and a later rental amendment binds only owners who consent or buy after it (Fla. Stat. §718.110).
The declaration and rules decide, and neither is published, so we do not state a rule. Ask for the pet provisions in writing before you sign. Dogs are not allowed on City of Naples beaches.
The public record does not say. Whether the declaration requires board approval or reserves a right of first refusal is in the declaration at OR 554/926; the estoppel certificate states whether approval is required.
Lake Park Elementary, Gulfview Middle and Naples High School, all graded A by the state for 2025-26 (FDOE school grades). Confirm your address in the district’s zone locator.
The median 2026 certified bill across the sixteen homes is $27,316.11, from $16,127.06 on a homesteaded home to $28,855.28. A buyer’s bill resets to the purchase price the following year, at about 0.898 percent before any homestead exemption.
It depends on what you want. The Whitehall has 16 homes of 3,000 square feet and a lower county value; Via Delfino next door has 24 larger homes, is fifteen to sixteen years newer and has a higher recorded ceiling. The decision table above sets them side by side.
We do not forecast. What the record shows at The Whitehall: four same-home resales, from 2004 to 2015 purchases, sold at 74 to 238 percent above their earlier prices, and 2026 buyers paid less per square foot than 2024 buyers. Buy for the home and the location, with the documents read.
At a building like The Whitehall: a milestone inspection that triggered phase two, a reserve study with large unfunded items, reserves paused or waived, a pending special assessment or loan, insurance deductibles out of line with reserves, and unanswered questions about nonconforming rebuild rights. Each is answerable from the documents.
In the Naples Beach area, the July 2026 condominium median was $950,000, down 3.7 percent year over year, while supply tightened to 7.1 months (NABOR July 2026 statistics). That is an area figure, not a Whitehall figure.
That is a question for the City’s planning staff, not a listing. The building is a legal nonconforming structure above the district’s 75-foot limit, and the City’s nonconformity rules govern what may be rebuilt after a casualty. Confirm it for this parcel before relying on it.
No. Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort is a separate property about 0.3 mile south, with its own residences and club (The Residences at Naples Beach Club); a Whitehall purchase conveys no resort membership.
No. The Whitehall is a condominium under Chapter 718; each owner holds a deed to a unit. Del Mar Club, across the street, is a cooperative under Chapter 719, where owners hold shares and a proprietary lease.
These questions about selling at The Whitehall are answered from the Collier County roll and sales file dated 29 August 2026, Florida’s condominium statutes, the City of Naples record and our own reading of every Whitehall deed since 1973. Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 26 September 2026: 5 closings at The Whitehall in the last 60 months, at a median of $4,200,000.
McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012. We price a Whitehall home from the building’s own recorded deeds, floor by floor, and assemble the statutory document package before the first showing. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072.
Yes, Florida law allows it. What you give up at a sixteen-home building is the pricing read on four qualified deeds and three unqualified ones, the statutory document package, the estoppel timing and a buyer pool that often lives out of state. McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, handle all of it.
A listing agent who can explain why the two 2026 deeds closed $1.6 million and more below the 2024 record, what the unqualified deeds mean and what the milestone summary says. That is the conversation we start with.
Start with a free Whitehall home valuation. The county’s 2026 value for your floor runs from $2,985,000 on the first floor to $3,265,000 on the eighth; recorded qualified sales since 2024 ran from $3,125,000 to $4,900,000. Your home’s condition decides where in that range it belongs.
Unit 6S, a sixth-floor home, recorded at $3,125,000 on 29 April 2026 (OR 6584/1503), county-qualified. Two weeks earlier, unit 3N recorded at $3,300,000.
Two qualified resales in the 12 months to 29 August 2026, both in April 2026. A third deed, $3,000,000 for 5N in August 2025, is on the roll but not qualified by the county.
Across its 4 MLS-marketed closings in the last 60 months, The Whitehall sold after a median 62 days on market at a median 93.13% of the final list price (Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 26 September 2026). For context only, Naples Beach area condominiums took a median 147 days to sell in July 2026.
On the county roll, yes: $280,000 more on the eighth floor than the first. On recorded sales, not reliably: the record is a third-floor home, and the 2026 sixth-floor sale closed below the 2026 third-floor sale.
Just value is the appraiser’s mass-appraisal estimate, set by floor across all sixteen homes. The 2024 sales closed well above it and the 2026 sales close to it. It is a tax figure, not a price.
The declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual financial statement and budget, the frequently asked questions document, the milestone inspection summary if applicable, and the most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none was completed (Fla. Stat. §718.503).
Yes, if the documents were not delivered more than seven days, excluding weekends and legal holidays, before the buyer signed: the contract is voidable by written notice within seven days after receipt. Delivering early closes that window.
The association’s statement of what is owed on your unit and whether approval is required. It must be delivered within 10 business days of a written request; the fee is capped at $299 when the account is current, plus $119 for expedited delivery and up to $179 more if delinquent (Fla. Stat. §718.116).
The inspector-prepared summary is on the statutory list a seller must deliver “if applicable”, and The Whitehall is on the City’s 2024 milestone list. Get the summary from the association before you list.
Yes: the association’s most recent structural integrity reserve study, or a statement that it has not completed one (Fla. Stat. §718.503).
It will come up. Petition 26-N1 was heard by the Planning Advisory Board on 9 September 2026 and its outcome is unverified here (PAB agenda). Confirm the status with the association and disclose it accurately; many buyers will see a generator as a plus.
It cuts both ways. A nine-story Gulf-front tower cannot be built new in a 75-foot district, which is scarcity a buyer pays for; the same status raises a rebuild question after a casualty that a careful buyer will ask the City about. We present both.
The declaration decides and it is not published. The estoppel certificate states whether approval is required; if it is, we build the approval window into the contract.
Generally yes, subject to any approval the declaration requires. If you are a foreign seller, federal FIRPTA withholding applies at closing; talk to your tax advisor early.
Mixed, by type and area. The Naples Beach condominium median fell 3.7 percent year over year in July 2026, while supply tightened (NABOR July 2026 statistics). Your building’s own deeds matter more.
At The Whitehall the two 2026 qualified sales closed below the two 2024 sales, on different floors and in unknown condition. That is four deeds, not a trend line, and we do not publish a percentage from them.
We do not forecast. We publish recorded sales with their dates and let the record speak.
Naples Beach area condominium supply fell to 7.1 months in July 2026 from 11.9 a year earlier. For a Whitehall home priced to its building’s recorded sales, fall listing reaches the winter buyer pool.
With every deed, qualified and not, read against the floor and condition; with Via Delfino’s recorded sales next door as a check; and with the county’s floor values as a floor, not a ceiling. That is the method on this page.
Talk to us first. The 2024 sales, at $1,500 to $1,630 per county square foot, and the 2026 sales, at about $1,040 to $1,100, suggest condition matters a great deal here, but a renovation needs association approval, City permits and months. Targeted updates often beat a full remodel.
Seven of the sixteen owners mail their tax bills outside Florida (Collier County roll, 2026). We sell for owners who are not in Naples, with remote signing and managed showings.
Mostly seasonal: four of sixteen homes are homesteaded today. Expect buyers from out of state as well as Florida.
It does not transfer to your buyer; the home is reassessed at just value on the next 1 January (Fla. Stat. §193.155). You may be able to carry up to $500,000 of the benefit to your next Florida homestead through portability.
About the purchase price times 0.0089752 in the first full year, on 2026 certified millage, less any homestead exemption: about $28,048 on a $3,125,000 purchase.
Yes. List the furnishings on an inventory and convey them by bill of sale; furnished Gulf-front homes suit seasonal buyers.
Ian’s damage at The Whitehall was to ground-level service rooms, which the association rebuilt above flood level with City approval. A documented answer usually reassures buyers more than it worries them.
Yes. Zone AE is financeable; a federally backed loan requires flood coverage, and a new NFIP policy has a 30-day waiting period, so the buyer should order it early.
The fee is not public, so it appears first on the estoppel. What reassures a buyer is context: what the budget covers, how reserves are funded and what the milestone and reserve study found. We present all three together.
Via Delfino carries a higher county value and higher recorded prices, mostly because its homes are larger; per county square foot the two trade in the same band. See the comparison above.
Yes. We offer discreet, off-market marketing to our qualified-buyer database when a sale needs to stay quiet, which suits a building of sixteen owners.
No. The Whitehall is a condominium, not a cooperative; you sell a deeded unit under Chapter 718. Cooperatives such as Del Mar Club sell shares and a proprietary lease under Chapter 719.
Commission is negotiable and not set by law. We explain our listing terms in person, alongside the marketing plan for your home.
About a month with documents ready: the estoppel within 10 business days, title work, any board approval the declaration requires, and the buyer’s seven-day document review.
