Mariner Apartments is a 162-unit garden condominium of nine two-story buildings, completed in 1977 on the inland, east side of North Collier Boulevard in Marco Island, Florida, where San Marco Road meets North Collier Boulevard. It sits across the boulevard from Residents’ Beach, not on the sand, and every unit is the same two-bedroom, two-bath plan of about 814 square feet. If you want to know who should sell or buy here for you, our comparison of the best real estate agents in Marco Island sets out the public record, and the rest of this guide sets out every fact we could verify about Mariner Apartments itself.
Mariner Apartments is a 162-unit condominium of two-bedroom, two-bath flats in nine low-rise buildings, completed in 1977 at the corner of San Marco Road and North Collier Boulevard on Marco Island. The association is The Mariner of Marco Island, Inc., and every unit on the Collier County roll measures 814 to 828 heated square feet.
The association’s own website describes the property as sitting directly across from Residents’ Beach and lists Seacrest Southwest as its management company (The Mariner of Marco Island). Everything else on this page is built from the Collier County roll and its qualified recorded sales, the Southwest Florida MLS pulled on 2026-10-07, the Florida Division of Corporations, the state condominium register, Collier County’s own map layers, FEMA, the National Hurricane Center and Florida statute text.
The Collier County roll places the 162 Mariner units on four streets: Greenbrier Street (72 units), North Collier Boulevard (36), Manor Terrace (36) and San Marco Road (18). The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) records the location as “SAINT RD 92 AND N COLLIER BLVD,” the state road designation for San Marco Road (DBPR condominium public records). The U.S. Census Bureau geocoder places 44 Greenbrier Street, the association’s principal address, at latitude 25.93768, longitude -81.73046 (Census geocoder). The Mariner buildings on North Collier Boulevard carry odd street numbers (17 to 47), the east side of the road; the Gulfview high-rise at 58 North Collier Boulevard faces them from the beach side.

“Mariner” is a common name for Florida buildings and associations, and the Division of Corporations lists unrelated entities with it, including a Mariner Association, Inc. in Greenacres. This page covers only the Marco Island condominium governed by The Mariner of Marco Island, Inc., document 737220, which carried the name The Mariner Apartments of Marco Island, Inc. until a name change filed 2009-09-08 (Florida Division of Corporations). It is also not Mariner’s Palm Harbor, a separate building the MLS files in the Caxambas area at the south end of the island.

Mariner Apartments is not gulf-front. Collier County’s parcel and road layers place the whole condominium on the east, inland side of North Collier Boulevard, across the road from Residents’ Beach, and its nearest parcel edge sits about 165 meters from the County’s coastal construction line. It is close to the beach by walking distance, not by frontage, and it is not one of the gulf-front towers.
Data updated: October 2026. Collier County GIS layers and the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder queried 2026-10-21.
Collier County’s parcel layer draws the Mariner common parcel as two pieces totalling about 8.9 acres: a western piece of about 4.8 acres between North Collier Boulevard, San Marco Road and Greenbrier Street, and an eastern piece of about 4.1 acres along Manor Terrace (Collier County parcels layer). Both pieces lie east of the boulevard. The Gulf of Mexico lies to the west, beyond Residents’ Beach and the Gulfview tower, and single-family homes border the complex to the north (OpenStreetMap building footprints).
We measured the Mariner parcel outline against Collier County’s Coastal Construction Line layer, the regulatory line that runs behind the dune along this beach (Collier County Coastal Construction Line layer). The results, as straight-line distances:
| Parcel | Closest point to the coastal construction line | Farthest point | Reading |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mariner Apartments (both pieces) | about 165 m (541 ft) | about 479 m | Across the boulevard, inland |
| Aquarius (167 N Collier Blvd) | about 256 m | about 481 m | East side of the boulevard |
Method: parcel outlines from the Collier County parcels layer, distance to the nearest segment of the County coastal construction line layer, computed on 2026-10-21; the Aquarius row is the same measurement made for our Seabreeze guide. These are map measurements, not a survey. The beach itself lies seaward of the line, so the walk to the water is longer than these figures.
The association’s own site says the Mariner sits directly across from Residents’ Beach, and the map agrees: the Residents’ Beach facilities are about 125 meters from the Mariner building at 17 North Collier Boulevard and about 280 meters from 44 Greenbrier Street in a straight line (OpenStreetMap point for the Residents’ Beach restrooms; Census geocoder points for the two addresses). Residents’ Beach is private. It is run by the Marco Island Civic Association, which admits owners of improved island property and renters of a year or more who join, and it does not admit short-term renters (Marco Island Civic Association, Residents’ Beach; MICA regulations notice, 2023-02-08). Membership dues were not published on the pages we read. A Mariner owner who joins gets one of the shortest walks to the sand of any condominium on the inland side.
The difference between beachfront and across-the-road shows up plainly in the sales. In the 24 months to 2026-10-07, the median Mariner sale worked out to about $513 per square foot, against about $644 at Gulfview, the beachfront high-rise across the boulevard, and about $430 to $462 at the older inland garden complexes to the north, Aquarius and Island Manor (Southwest Florida MLS, median of each sale’s price per square foot). Our guide to the Marco Island gulf-front condos covers the beachfront towers across the road and leaves the inland garden complexes out of its figures. Mariner carries the highest price per square foot of the inland complexes we compare, and its 814 square foot units are larger than the typical unit at Aquarius (a median of 508 square feet on the county roll), Island Manor (722) and Seabreeze (508); only Beach View, with 1,184 square foot units, sells for more per unit. A Mariner seller should price against inland and across-the-road sales, not against the towers.
Mariner Apartments suits a buyer who wants a two-bedroom Marco Island condo a short walk from the beach for well under the island’s beachfront prices: one floor plan, two pools, low-rise buildings and a location at the island’s main intersection. It does not suit a buyer who wants a Gulf view from the lanai, more than two bedrooms, or a building with an elevator lobby and amenities of a tower.
The sales record describes the buyer by what the property offers. Every one of the 162 units is a two-bedroom, two-bath flat of 814 to 828 heated square feet (Collier County roll), every Mariner sale in the last five years was 814 square feet as entered in the MLS, and the association’s website carries pages for units for sale or rent and for owners’ rental needs (The Mariner of Marco Island). In our reading of the sales and the location, that mix tends to draw second-home owners who use the unit part of the year, retirees who want a lock-and-leave base near Residents’ Beach, and owners who rent within the association’s rules when they are away.
What Mariner gives you is the beach across the road, a sensible two-bedroom plan and a price point. In the 24 months to 2026-10-07 the median Mariner sale was $417,500 (Southwest Florida MLS), against a City of Marco Island where the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey puts the median value of an owner-occupied home at $896,300 (U.S. Census QuickFacts, Marco Island city). What you give up is a view of the Gulf, any choice of floor plan, and the quiet of a side street: the complex wraps the corner of two of the island’s main roads, Collier Boulevard and San Marco Road.
We tracked every Mariner Apartments closing on the Southwest Florida MLS for the five years to 2026-10-07, 34 closings in all, and read them against the 276 qualified recorded sales the Collier County roll data holds for the condominium. Two things stood out. First, the product is completely uniform: every MLS sale was the same 814 square foot two-bedroom plan, so a Mariner valuation turns on condition, floor, building position and timing, not on size. Second, the market here turned in 2026: after three years of medians between $429,000 and $462,500, the six sales of 2026 have a median of $380,000.
Mariner Apartments recorded 10 closed sales on the Southwest Florida MLS in the 24 months to 2026-10-07, at a median of $417,500 and a range of $350,000 to $442,500. The 24-month window is the first of the 12, 24, 36 and 60 month windows to hold ten or more closings, so it leads every figure below; the 12-month window held 6.
Data updated: October 2026. All MLS figures are for the 24 months to 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS, unless another window is named.
| Measure | Figure | Count behind it |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 10 | 10 |
| Median sale price | $417,500 | 10 sales |
| Lowest and highest sale | $350,000 to $442,500 | 10 sales |
| Dollar volume | $4,018,500 | 10 sales |
| Median price per square foot | about $513 | 10 sales |
| Median days on market | 47.5 | 10 sales |
| Median sale to final list price | about 96.9 percent | 10 sales |

Medians are the middle value of the sorted sales; with 10 sales, the median is the average of the 5th and 6th, here $415,000 and $420,000. Price per square foot is each sale’s price divided by its MLS square footage, then the median of those 10 ratios.

Source: Southwest Florida MLS, closed sales matched to the condominium name MARINER APTS MARCO ISLAND, pulled 2026-10-07. Square footage is as entered in the MLS. The first six rows are the 12-month window: 6 closings, median $380,000 (the average of $370,000 and $390,000), range $350,000 to $423,000, median of about $467 per square foot and 56 days on market.
The Collier County roll data dated 2026-08-29 (recorded sales through 2026-08-24) holds 8 qualified, arm’s-length recorded sales of Mariner units in the 24 months to 2026-08-24, at a median of $424,500 and a range of $350,000 to $475,000, and 3 in the 12 months to that date, at $350,000, $370,000 and $420,000. A qualified recorded sale is a deed the county has graded as a fair market, arm’s-length transfer; it is a county record, not an MLS record, and its dates are deed dates. Where a deed and the MLS describe the same sale they agree on price in this record: the $370,000 sale at 20 Greenbrier Street carries a deed date and an MLS closing date of 2026-06-23. The July and August 2026 MLS closings are not yet in the county file, which is why the county’s 12-month count is lower.
Sale to list here means the sale price divided by the final list price, after any price reductions. A median of about 96.9 percent means the typical Mariner seller in the 24-month window accepted about 3 percent less than the last asking price. Only one of the 10, the unit at 780 San Marco Road that sold for $429,000 in November 2024, sold at its full final asking price. The two weakest results, 91.2 and 91.8 percent, came on units that asked $455,000 and $425,000 and closed at $415,000 and $390,000.
The 10 sales run from $350,000 to $442,500 for units that are all 814 square feet, so the whole $92,500 spread comes from condition, floor, building position and timing. The two $350,000 sales were both in 2026 (58 Manor Terrace in August and 56 Greenbrier Street in January), while the three sales of $429,000 and above were all in late 2024 and early 2025. Timing has been the biggest single factor here, which is why a Mariner valuation has to be built from the newest sales of comparable units, not from a two-year median.
Mariner Apartments is a 162-unit garden condominium on the inland side of the Marco Island gulf-front corridor, across the boulevard from Residents’ Beach, with a 24-month median sale of $417,500 (Southwest Florida MLS, to 2026-10-07).

Mariner Apartments prices rose sharply from 2020 to 2023 and have come back since: qualified recorded sales had a median of $260,000 in 2020 and $462,750 in 2023, and the MLS median was $462,500 in 2023, $450,000 in 2024, $429,000 in 2025 and $380,000 so far in 2026 (Collier County roll data; Southwest Florida MLS, pulled 2026-10-07).
Data updated: October 2026.
| Year | Closings | Median sale | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 5 | $431,000 | $380,000 to $475,000 |
| 2023 | 11 | $462,500 | $395,000 to $485,000 |
| 2024 | 9 | $450,000 | $377,500 to $495,000 |

| 2026 | 6 | $380,000 | $350,000 to $423,000 |
The MLS window behind this table runs from 2021-10-07 to 2026-10-07 and holds 34 closings, none of them in the last weeks of 2021; 2026 is a partial year. Medians of fewer than ten sales are the median of those sales only. One of the 34, at 44 Greenbrier Street in July 2024 for $470,000, was entered after closing (Sold Data Entry) and was not marketed through the MLS; it counts in the closing counts and medians.
| Deed year | Qualified recorded sales | Median of these sales |
|---|---|---|
| 2016 | 7 | $251,000 |
| 2017 | 4 | $282,250 |
| 2018 | 8 | $267,500 |
| 2019 | 7 | $254,000 |

Source: Collier County roll data files dated 2026-08-29, qualified improved sales of MARINER APTS units. Each row holds fewer than ten sales, so each median describes that year’s sales only and is history, not a current price signal. The county file holds 276 qualified sales of Mariner units in all.
The 2020 to 2023 run took the median qualified sale from $260,000 to $462,750, a rise of about 78 percent, in line with the wider Southwest Florida run-up. Since 2023 the sales have come back in two steps, a $429,000 median on only three sales in 2025 and $380,000 on six so far in 2026, while the listing-entered condo fee rose from $6,348 a year to about $10,140 over the same period (see the fee section below). In our reading, buyers are pricing in carrying costs and post-Ian insurance on older condominiums; the figures show the price movement, not its cause. The 36-month window (19 closings, median $429,000) and the 60-month window (34 closings, median $436,750, about $537 per square foot) sit above today’s level; the 12-month median of $380,000 is the freshest signal, on thin data.
On 2026-10-07 no Mariner Apartments unit was actively for sale, and two were under contract with contingencies, listed at $387,700 and $389,000. With 6 closings in the last 12 months, that is a tight supply picture: a buyer waits for the next listing, and a seller who lists enters a market with no direct competition.
Data updated: October 2026. Listings as of 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS.
| Address and unit | Status | Sq ft | List price | List $/sq ft | Days on market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 27 Greenbrier St, unit 109 | Pending with contingency | 843 (as entered) | $387,700 | $460 | 36 |
| 35 Greenbrier St, unit 6-104 | Pending with contingency | 814 | $389,000 | $478 | 0 |
The county roll records no Mariner unit larger than 828 square feet, so the 843 square foot entry for 27 Greenbrier Street is a listing-entered figure the roll does not support. A third listing the MLS filed under the Mariner condominium name on 2026-10-07, a 3,974 square foot mid-rise unit at 908 Panama Court asking $2,100,000, is not at the Mariner (its address, size and building type match none of the 162 Mariner parcels), so we have left it out of every figure on this page.
Both pending list prices, $387,700 and $389,000, sit just above the 12-month median sale of $380,000 and well below the 24-month median of $417,500. In plain terms, Mariner sellers in late 2026 have been pricing to the newest sales, not to the 2024 highs. An asking price is not a sale; the closed sales above are the evidence a lender’s appraiser will use.
Mariner Apartments has one floor plan: a two-bedroom, two-bath flat of 814 heated square feet on the Collier County roll, with a few units recorded at 828 square feet. Every one of the 34 Mariner sales on the Southwest Florida MLS in the five years to 2026-10-07 was entered at 814 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths.
The association describes nine residential buildings plus an office, built in two phases: five buildings of 18 apartments in Phase One and four buildings of 18 in Phase Two, 162 in all (The Mariner of Marco Island). The county roll gives each building two street addresses. MLS unit numbers read as building number, then floor and unit (unit 8-204 is in building 8, second floor), which lets us match most addresses to buildings:
| Building (from MLS unit numbers) | Street addresses | Units on the county roll |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 39 and 47 N Collier Blvd | 9 and 9 |
| 2 | 44 and 56 Greenbrier St | 8 and 10 |
| 3 | 20 and 32 Greenbrier St | 10 and 8 |
| 4 | 762 and 780 San Marco Rd | 10 and 8 |
| 5 | 17 N Collier Blvd, with 25 N Collier Blvd (pairing inferred) | 10 and 8 |
| 6 | 35 Greenbrier St, with 27 Greenbrier St (pairing inferred) | 10 and 8 |
| 7 (by elimination, no MLS sale seen) | 49 and 61 Greenbrier St | 8 and 10 |
| 8 | 46 and 58 Manor Ter | 8 and 10 |
| 9 | 14 and 28 Manor Ter | 10 and 8 |
Every pair adds to 18 units and the nine pairs add to 162, which matches the association’s description and the state register. Building numbers come from the unit numbers on MLS sales; where no sale shows a building number for an address, the pairing is our inference from the street numbering, marked in the table.
Every Mariner unit number on the MLS in five years falls in the 100s or the 200s, ground floor and second floor, and each building holds 18 units, which reads as nine units on each of two floors. The MLS labels the buildings Low Rise (1-3), and the City of Marco Island’s building layer records the nine Mariner footprints at two floors and 20 feet, with a one-floor parking structure and a one-floor amenity structure (City of Marco Island GIS). The story count matters for Florida’s inspection laws, covered below.
In the 60 months to 2026-10-07, the 14 first-floor Mariner sales had a median of $440,500 and the 20 second-floor sales a median of $436,250 (Southwest Florida MLS). Neither group holds ten sales in a narrower window, and the $4,250 difference is too small to call a floor premium either way. Buyers here choose a floor for their own reasons: ground-floor access without stairs, or the second floor’s privacy and distance from the parking areas.
One Mariner sale, unit 1-206 at 39 North Collier Boulevard in May 2024 at $495,000, was entered in the MLS with the building design “Townhouse”; every other sale reads Low Rise (1-3). The unit number places it on the second floor of building 1 like its neighbors, so we read the label as a listing entry choice, not a different product.
Mariner Apartments was organized as an association in 1976, registered with the state in 1977 and completed in 1977, on the Collier County roll and the Florida records. The association’s site says construction began in 1977 by Deltona, the company that developed much of Marco Island. Three public records identify the condominium, and they agree on 162 units.
The Collier County roll data dated 2026-08-29 records 162 improved condominium parcels under the name MARINER APTS MARCO ISLAND A CONDOMINIUM, every one with a 1977 year built and 814 to 828 heated square feet, on 18 building addresses. Collier County roll data was read from the files already pulled for this build; the Property Appraiser’s website was not queried.
The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation lists the condominium as MARINER APTS OF MARCO ISLAND, THE, project PR1S004698, file 56227, 162 units, with a DBPR recorded date of 1977-02-07 and the location “SAINT RD 92 AND N COLLIER BLVD,” in its public condominium extract (DBPR Condo_CW extract). The DBPR recorded date is a register field, not necessarily the date the Declaration was recorded in the county’s Official Records. Buyers can look up any registered Florida condominium through the division’s public records page (DBPR public records).
The Florida Division of Corporations lists The Mariner of Marco Island, Inc. as document 737220, a Florida not-for-profit corporation, status Active, filed 1976-11-03, with its principal address at 44 Greenbrier Street and a law firm, Goede, DeBoest and Cross, PLLC, as registered agent (Florida Division of Corporations). The corporation changed its name from The Mariner Apartments of Marco Island, Inc. on 2009-09-08, and annual reports are on file for 2023, 2025 and 2026. Officers and directors are listed on the state record; this page does not name individuals.
The Mariner Declaration of Condominium is recorded in the Collier County Official Records, searchable through the Clerk of the Circuit Court (Collier County Clerk records search). We did not retrieve the recorded instrument or its book and page for this page. The association’s website keeps a folder of “Declaration, amendments, by-laws” in its documents section; a buyer receives the current versions in the resale package under Florida law.
The association names Seacrest Southwest as its management company, routes owner payments through a Seacrest owner portal, and lists an on-site office open Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with a separate Seacrest line for after-hours emergencies (The Mariner of Marco Island). The board publishes agendas, notices, minutes, meeting video links and financial pages on the site, some of them for owners only.
Mariner Apartments has two swimming pools and a meeting room for owners, on grounds of about 8.9 acres across two parcels, according to the association’s website and the Collier County parcel layer. It has no beach of its own, no marina, no tennis courts we could confirm and no restaurant on the property; Residents’ Beach across the boulevard is a separate, membership-based amenity.
The association lists two pools and publishes pool rules on its website. Public map data shows two pools on the property, one near the San Marco Road and Greenbrier Street buildings and one near the Greenbrier Street and Manor Terrace buildings (OpenStreetMap). We did not read the pool rules document for this page; ask the office for hours and guest limits.
The association lists a meeting room, and its site carries an upcoming events page, a members’ chat room and a photo album from an owners’ party in 2022. Specific events and room rules were not read for this page.
How parking is assigned at Mariner, whether any spaces are covered, and any limits on guest parking, trucks, trailers or boats come from the association’s documents and rules, which we did not read for this page; ask the office before you buy if you own a boat, trailer or commercial vehicle.
Mariner Apartments condo fees, as entered by listing agents on the Southwest Florida MLS, were $10,140 to $10,152 a year on all six 2026 sales and both listings pending on 2026-10-07, paid as $845 to $846 a month or $2,535 a quarter. The association’s budget and its list of what the fee covers are not published on its public website.
| Sales in | Entries | Annual condo fee as entered | How entered |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 5 of 5 sales | $6,348 | $529 a month |
| 2023 | 11 of 11 sales | $6,348 to $9,480 | $529 or $790 a month, or $2,370 a quarter |
| 2024 | 8 of 9 sales | $9,480 to $9,900 | $790 to $825 a month, or $2,370 to $2,475 a quarter |
| 2025 | 3 of 3 sales | $9,284 to $10,140 | $2,321 or $2,350 a quarter, or $845 a month |
| 2026 | 6 of 6 sales | $10,140 to $10,152 | $845 to $846 a month, or $2,535 to $2,537 a quarter |
| Pending on 2026-10-07 | 2 of 2 listings | $10,140 to $10,152 | $846 a month or $2,535 a quarter |
These are figures as entered by listing agents, not the association’s budget. The one 2024 sale with no fee row was entered after closing. A listing records the fee in force when it was written, which is why 2023 sales carry both the old $529 and the newer $790 monthly figures.
On these entries the Mariner fee rose from $6,348 a year on the 2022 sales to $10,152 on the newest listings, about 60 percent ($10,152 divided by $6,348 is 1.599), with the largest step between the 2022 and 2023 entries ($529 to $790 a month). That period matches the years when Florida condominium insurance costs and the post-Surfside reserve laws pushed fees up across the state; the entries show the size of the increase, not its cause, and the association’s budgets explain it.
The association’s budget, reserve schedule and fee inclusions are not published on its public website; owners reach them through the owner portal and the association’s financial pages. Under Florida law a buyer is entitled, at the seller’s expense, to the annual budget and annual financial statement as part of the resale documents (Fla. Stat. 718.503), and the estoppel certificate states the regular assessment and anything owed (Fla. Stat. 718.116). The association’s site lists its service providers for recycling and waste, cable television, electricity and water; which of those the fee pays is a budget question. Sellers can get a free valuation that accounts for the fee, and buyers can book a buyer consultation to read the documents with us.
At the current entered figure of $10,140 a year, the condo fee is about 2.7 percent of the 12-month median Mariner sale of $380,000 ($10,140 divided by $380,000 is 2.67 percent) and about 2.4 percent of the 24-month median of $417,500. That ratio is why the fee, not the price, is often the first number Mariner buyers ask about.
Owning at Mariner Apartments costs more than the condo fee: property tax at the 2025 Marco Island millage, an HO-6 unit-owner insurance policy, application fees for buyers or tenants, an estoppel fee at sale, and any special assessment the association adopts. Each layer below is sourced, and the worked example shows the arithmetic.
A standard Marco Island parcel carried 8.9535 mills of confirmed ad valorem levies for tax year 2025: Collier County 3.2449 (general fund, water pollution control and Conservation Collier), Collier County Public Schools 4.2490, South Florida Water Management District with the Big Cypress Basin 0.1926, and the City of Marco Island 1.2670 (Florida Department of Revenue, Table 1, Collier 2025-26; City of Marco Island FY2026 adopted budget). The Collier Mosquito Control District levy is extra and its 2025 rate was not confirmed. At 8.9535 mills, every $100,000 of taxable value carries $895.35 a year. A buyer’s taxable value resets to just value the year after purchase, and a homestead owner can claim the exemptions in Fla. Stat. 196.031 and the Save Our Homes cap in Fla. Stat. 193.155; a non-homestead unit is capped at 10 percent a year for non-school levies under Fla. Stat. 193.1554.
Listing agents have entered a Mariner application fee of $100, $150 or $250 on recent listings, and every 2025 and 2026 entry that names one shows $150; three 2023 listings also entered a $150 transfer fee (Southwest Florida MLS, as entered). The association’s own fee schedule was not read for this page. Florida law lets an association charge a transfer fee only when its documents require it to approve the transfer and provide for the fee, caps it at $150 per applicant, counts spouses or parents with dependent children as one applicant, and bars a charge for renewing a lease with the same tenant; the statute also provides for inflation adjustment of the cap (Fla. Stat. 718.112(2)(k)).
An estoppel certificate is the association’s statement of what a unit owes. Florida law requires the association to issue it within 10 business days of a request, makes it effective for 30 days when delivered by hand or electronically, and caps the fee at $250 when nothing is delinquent, plus $100 for delivery within three business days and up to $150 more when an account is delinquent, with the caps adjusted for inflation every five years (Fla. Stat. 718.116). The same statute makes a buyer jointly and severally liable with the previous owner for unpaid assessments, which is why the estoppel is read before closing, not after. At Mariner the request goes through the association’s manager, Seacrest Southwest.
Florida charges documentary stamp tax on a deed at 70 cents per $100 of consideration (Fla. Stat. 201.02), so a $380,000 Mariner sale carries $2,660 of deed stamps, customarily paid by the seller. A financed buyer pays 35 cents per $100 on the note (Fla. Stat. 201.08) and the 2-mill nonrecurring intangible tax on the mortgage (Fla. Stat. 199.133); on a $304,000 loan that is $1,064 and $608. In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and selects the title agent, the reverse of neighbouring Lee County, per a Naples real estate law firm (Goodwin Law) and a Florida title and law firm’s county table (Barnes Walker). The signed contract controls on every sale: the standard Florida contract has a box that decides who pays and who chooses.
For a non-homestead unit with a $380,000 taxable value and the current $10,140 condo fee: the fee is $845.00 a month ($10,140 divided by 12); property tax at 8.9535 mills is $3,402.33 a year, or $283.53 a month; together that is $1,128.53 a month before HO-6 insurance, electricity, mosquito control and any non-ad valorem charge on the tax bill. Insurance premiums vary by carrier, coverage and unit and are not estimated here.
Mariner Apartments is governed by its recorded Declaration of Condominium and amendments, the association’s articles and bylaws, and the rules its board adopts. The association’s website lists Mariner Association Rules, Pool Rules, a “Renovations vs. Repairs” page, a “Be a Good Neighbor” page with a rules reminder dated 2021, and a folder of the Declaration, amendments and bylaws (The Mariner of Marco Island).
We read the association’s public home page. We did not retrieve the Declaration, the bylaws, the rules or the forms for this page, so this guide states no Mariner rule on leasing, pets, renovations, parking or guests as fact. Those documents govern, and a buyer reads them in the resale package or on the association’s site before contracting.
The association’s “Renovations vs. Repairs” page signals that the board draws a line between ordinary repairs and renovations that need its approval. Separately, most alterations inside a Marco Island condominium need a City of Marco Island building permit, and the City’s flood code treats work worth 50 percent or more of a building’s market value, counted cumulatively, as a substantial improvement (City of Marco Island floodplain documents). For a ground-floor unit in a 1977 building that can change what is buildable.
The association’s site keeps wind mitigation forms for owners, the uniform inspection form Florida insurers use to grant credits for roof and opening protection (Fla. Stat. 627.711). In a condominium most of those features belong to the building, so ask the office for the building’s current form when you shop for an HO-6 policy.
Florida law entitles a resale buyer, at the seller’s expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual budget and financial statement, the milestone inspection summary if applicable, the most recent SIRS or a statement that none has been completed, and the frequently asked questions document, and gives the buyer 7 days, excluding weekends and legal holidays, to cancel after receiving them (Fla. Stat. 718.503). An owner can inspect the association’s official records under Fla. Stat. 718.111, which gives the association 10 working days to make them available after a written request.
Mariner Apartments owners do rent their units: the association’s site carries pages for units for sale or rent, a “Need a Rental” page and a for-rent list dated 2026-04-28. The minimum lease term, the number of leases a year and any approval process are set by the recorded Declaration and the association’s rules, which we did not read for this page.
The City of Marco Island has no enforceable vacation rental registration program: Resolution 23-54, adopted 2023-10-02, declared the 2022 rental registration ordinance null and void after the 2023 state law change (SB 250), and nothing has replaced it (City of Marco Island Resolution 23-54). Florida law bars local governments from prohibiting vacation rentals or regulating their duration or frequency under ordinances adopted after June 1, 2011 (Fla. Stat. 509.032). That preemption limits the City, not the association: condominium documents can restrict rentals on their own, which is why the Mariner Declaration and rules are the ones that govern. Transient rentals also owe state sales tax and the Collier County tourist development tax collected by the Tax Collector (Collier County Tax Collector, tourist development tax).
Short-term renters at Mariner cannot use Residents’ Beach across the road: the Marco Island Civic Association admits renters only on a lease of a year or more (Marco Island Civic Association, Residents’ Beach). A short-term renter’s beach is a public one: Tigertail Beach to the north or South Marco Beach to the south (see the daily logistics section). For an owner marketing a seasonal rental, that is a fact worth putting in the listing.
The Mariner pet rules were not confirmed for this page: the association’s rules are not public text we read, and listing remarks are not a substitute. A buyer with a dog or cat should read the Declaration and the current rules before contracting, and should not rely on a listing’s pet field.
A request to keep an assistance animal as a reasonable accommodation for a disability is handled under the federal Fair Housing Act and Florida law, not under a pet rule, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development publishes the federal guidance on how housing providers assess those requests (HUD, assistance animals). Any such request goes to the association in writing.
Whatever the Mariner rules say, pets are prohibited at Residents’ Beach and at the civic association’s Sarazen Park (MICA regulations notice, 2023-02-08).
We found no published age restriction for Mariner Apartments, and the Housing for Older Persons Act exemption does not appear in any document we read. Confirm in the Declaration; a 55 and over designation would show there.
Mariner Apartments sits in FEMA flood zone AE at all three building addresses we tested, with a base flood elevation of 9 feet NAVD88 at 56 Greenbrier Street and 10 feet at 20 Greenbrier Street and 762 San Marco Road, on FIRM panels 12021C0828J and 12021C0836J effective 2024-02-08. It is outside the Coastal Barrier Resources System and in Collier County storm surge evacuation zone A.
Data updated: October 2026. FEMA, USGS and state layers queried 2026-10-07.
| Address tested | FEMA zone | Base flood elevation | FIRM panel and effective date | Ground elevation (USGS 3DEP) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 56 Greenbrier St | AE (coastal floodplain) | 9 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0828J, 2024-02-08 | 4.5 ft NAVD88 |
| 20 Greenbrier St | AE (coastal floodplain) | 10 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0836J, 2024-02-08 | 5.0 ft NAVD88 |
| 762 San Marco Rd | AE (coastal floodplain) | 10 ft NAVD88 | 12021C0836J, 2024-02-08 | 5.5 ft NAVD88 |
Method: each address was geocoded with the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder and tested against the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, with ground elevation read from the USGS 3D Elevation Program and the Coastal Barrier Resources System checked on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service mapper, on 2026-10-07 (FEMA Flood Map Service Center; USGS 3D Elevation Program; USFWS CBRS mapper). Zones AE 9, AE 10 and X are all mapped within 150 meters of the tested points, so the line between a 9-foot and a 10-foot base flood elevation runs through or near the complex. A geocoded point can fall on the street rather than the building, so this is a map indication, not a flood determination; each building’s Elevation Certificate and the FEMA address search give the structure’s own zone.
At the three points the ground sits 4.5 to 5.0 feet below the base flood elevation (9.0 minus 4.5 is 4.5; 10.0 minus 5.0 is 5.0; 10.0 minus 5.5 is 4.5). The buildings date from 1977, decades before the current map took effect, so the elevation of each building’s lowest floor comes from its Elevation Certificate, which the association or the City floodplain office can supply. The City of Marco Island’s flood code requires new or substantially improved construction to put the lowest floor at the higher of base flood elevation plus one foot or the road-crown tests in the code (City of Marco Island floodplain documents). For a ground-floor Mariner unit, that is the single most important number in an insurance quote.
The state’s evacuation zone layer places the tested Mariner points in Collier County zone A, the county’s most surge-exposed evacuation zone. That reading comes from a state-hosted copy of the county zones, not the County’s own lookup; confirm it on Collier County Emergency Management’s Know Your Zone tool before hurricane season (Collier County Emergency Management).
Irma made its final U.S. landfall near Marco Island at 3:30 p.m. EDT as a category 3 hurricane; a spotter on the island measured a 936.9 millibar pressure and 97-knot sustained wind, and the Marco Island Police Department recorded a 113-knot gust. The USGS sensor at Tigertail Beach recorded a storm tide of 5.20 feet NAVD88, and the National Hurricane Center put inundation from Marco Island north to Fort Myers at 3 to 5 feet above ground (NHC Tropical Cyclone Report, Irma).
Ian made landfall at Cayo Costa, far north of Marco, but the National Hurricane Center put maximum inundation at 4 to 6 feet above ground from Marco Island through Everglades City, with a surveyed high water mark of 4.71 feet above ground (6.99 feet NAVD88) on Marco Island and a storm tide of 7.38 feet NAVD88 at the Marco Island USGS sensor (NHC Tropical Cyclone Report, Ian). With the ground at Mariner at 4.5 to 5.5 feet NAVD88, a 7.38-foot storm tide would put roughly 2 to 3 feet of water over the ground there, a rough comparison of two published figures, not a measurement at the property. The National Weather Service Miami summary lists Marco Island damage at $256 million in its Collier County table (NWS Miami, Hurricane Ian summary). The association’s website keeps an “Our Hurricanes” page and a 2025 hurricane season notice; we found no public record of Ian damage specific to Mariner, so ask the association for its post-Ian repair and insurance history.
Hurricane Helene in September 2024 brought 2 to 4 feet of inundation above ground to areas including Marco Island, and Hurricane Milton in October 2024 brought 3 to 5 feet from Bonita Beach through Marco Island, per the National Hurricane Center (NHC report, Helene; NHC report, Milton). The City’s manager told NBC2 the island saw about 2 feet of surge in Milton under a mandatory evacuation notice (NBC2, 2024-10-11).
A Mariner owner carries an HO-6 unit-owner policy for the inside of the unit and personal liability, while the association insures the buildings under its master policy and passes that cost through the condo fee. Flood is a separate peril from wind and homeowners coverage, and in zone AE a lender will usually require it.
Florida’s insurer of last resort, Citizens Property Insurance, must require flood insurance on most personal residential policies, phased in by replacement cost, but the statute exempts “Policies that provide coverage under a condominium unit owners form,” so a Citizens HO-6 on a Mariner unit does not trigger the requirement; a Citizens policy on a condominium association’s building does (Fla. Stat. 627.351). A lender may still require flood coverage on a unit in zone AE.
FEMA’s FloodSmart site says the premium “cannot increase more than 18 to 25% per year for most policyholders,” a cap that usually does not apply to new policies, and adds a Reserve Fund Assessment of 18 percent of the discounted premium, an HFIAA surcharge of $25 for a primary residence or $250 otherwise, and a $47 federal policy fee for most policies (FEMA FloodSmart, premium costs; FEMA FloodSmart, flood zones). Ask the seller whether the unit carries its own NFIP policy and whether it can be transferred to you at closing.
FEMA’s list of Community Rating System communities effective 2026-10-01 shows the City of Marco Island, community 120426, at Class 5, a 25 percent premium discount for policies in the Special Flood Hazard Area, with the current class effective since 2023-10-01 (FEMA, CRS Eligible Communities, October 1, 2026). The discount applies to NFIP policies in zone AE like those at Mariner; your agent applies it.
Florida requires insurers to offer actuarially reasonable discounts for wind-resistant features such as roof strength, roof-to-wall connections and opening protection (Fla. Stat. 627.0629), documented on the state’s uniform mitigation verification form (Fla. Stat. 627.711; Rule 69O-170.0155). The Mariner association keeps wind mitigation forms for owners on its site. The state’s My Safe Florida Home program writes its standard eligibility around owner-occupied, homesteaded single-family homes and mentions a separate condominium pilot whose terms we did not confirm (Fla. Stat. 215.5586; My Safe Florida Home).
Since October 1, 2024, a Florida seller of residential property must give the buyer a flood disclosure at or before contract, and the 2025 amendment added whether the seller knows of flood damage during ownership, has filed a flood claim, or has received flood assistance (Fla. Stat. 689.302). A Mariner seller completes it for the unit; for a ground-floor unit, expect the buyer to read it closely.
On the public record, they do not: Florida’s milestone structural inspection and structural integrity reserve study (SIRS) laws apply to condominium buildings three habitable stories or higher, the City of Marco Island’s building layer records every Mariner building at two floors, and the City’s permit system holds no milestone case for the Mariner parcel. Florida still requires the Mariner budget to carry reserves for roofs, painting and paving, which owners can vote to waive or reduce.
On Marco Island the City, not Collier County, runs the milestone program and holds the reports. A search of the City’s permit system for the Mariner header parcel returned no Phase 1 or Phase 2 milestone case on 2026-10-22, and the City’s building layer gives the nine residential footprints two floors and a height of 20 feet (City of Marco Island permit portal; City of Marco Island GIS). That is what a two-story complex below the statutory threshold looks like in the records; the association’s written position is still the document to ask for.
Florida Statute 553.899 requires a milestone inspection of condominium buildings “three habitable stories or more in height,” by December 31 of the year a building turns 30 and every 10 years after (Fla. Stat. 553.899), and Statute 718.112(2)(g) requires a SIRS at least every 10 years “for each building on the condominium property that is three habitable stories or higher in height” (Fla. Stat. 718.112). Every Mariner unit number on five years of MLS sales is a first- or second-floor number, each building holds 18 units, and every sale but one is labelled Low Rise (1-3). On that reading none of the nine buildings meets the threshold. The statute measures stories “as determined by the Florida Building Code,” so the association’s engineer, not a listing label or our reading, settles it; ask the association whether it has determined that the laws do not apply. Had the buildings been three stories, the 1977 year built would have put the initial milestone inspection before December 31, 2024 and the first SIRS by December 31, 2025.
Every Florida condominium budget must include reserve accounts for capital expenditures and deferred maintenance, including “roof replacement, building painting, and pavement resurfacing,” plus any item costing more than $25,000 or the inflation-adjusted amount (Fla. Stat. 718.112). For an association that is not required to have a SIRS, the members may vote, by a majority of the total voting interests, to provide no reserves or less reserves than the statute requires. That is the key difference from the towers across the boulevard: the Mariner owners may have chosen lower reserves by vote, and a buyer should find out whether they did.
Mariner Apartments is served by Collier County Public Schools. Marco Island has one district elementary school, Tommie Barfield Elementary, about 1.1 miles from the complex in a straight line, and two charter schools, Marco Island Charter Middle and Marco Island Academy; the district’s attendance maps place the island in the Manatee Middle and Lely High zones.
| School | Address | Type | Florida grade, 2025-26 | Straight-line distance from 44 Greenbrier St |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tommie Barfield Elementary | 101 Kirkwood St, Marco Island | District | A | about 1.1 miles |
| Marco Island Charter Middle | 1401 Trinidad Ave, Marco Island | Charter | A | about 1.1 miles |
| Marco Island Academy | 2255 San Marco Rd, Marco Island | Charter high | A | about 3.3 miles |
Addresses are from the Florida Department of Education school directory (FLDOE Collier directory); grades are from the Collier County Public Schools 2026 accountability brief (CCPS 2025-26 grades). Distances are straight lines between U.S. Census Bureau geocoder points, not driving routes.
The district’s 2026-27 attendance boundary maps place Marco Island in the Manatee Middle School and Lely High School zones (CCPS attendance boundaries). That is a map reading at county scale; confirm the zone for a specific Mariner address with the district’s interactive zoning tool (CCPS zoning tool). The two charter schools enroll by application, not by zone.
Mariner Apartments is inside the City of Marco Island, so building permits, flood rules, noise limits and code enforcement come from the City, not from Collier County. The City adopted its current flood damage prevention rules alongside the FEMA map effective 2024-02-08, and its code governs renovation work inside every Mariner unit.
A renovation that needs a permit goes through City of Marco Island Building Services. Under the City’s flood code a project costing 50 percent or more of the building’s market value within 12 months is a substantial improvement that must meet current flood elevation rules, which for a 1977 ground-floor unit can change what is buildable (Marco Island Code of Ordinances).
The City bars construction noise from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. and on Sundays and holidays (Marco Island Code of Ordinances). An association’s own rules can be narrower; check the Mariner rules for its renovation hours before you book a contractor.
The City bans fertilizer from June 1 to September 30 and within 10 feet of water or a seawall, and protects burrowing owl burrows with a 33-foot no-parking buffer during nesting season from February 15 to July 10 (City of Marco Island, burrowing owl notice).
The City’s permit system shows the association’s recent capital work, with the job values declared on each permit, not contract prices (City of Marco Island permit portal):
Ask the association how the 2024 concrete program was paid for and whether any special assessment funded it.
Marco Island voters approved a $23 million general obligation bond on 2026-08-18 by 2,259 votes to 2,258, certified on 2026-08-26, to replace the Caxambas and Goldenrod bridges, repair three others and repave streets, with repayment over up to 20 years (WGCU, 2026-08-26). Any debt-service millage will appear on future tax bills, Mariner’s included; the rate was not set as of 2026-10-07.
Daily life at Mariner Apartments runs through the association office and Seacrest Southwest for registration, payments and maintenance, with Residents’ Beach across the boulevard for members, public beaches a short drive north or south, and groceries about a mile up North Collier Boulevard. There is no hospital emergency department on Marco Island.
The association’s site lists its service providers: the Lee County Electric Cooperative (LCEC) for electricity, the City of Marco Island for water, Summit for cable television, and a recycling and waste management provider (The Mariner of Marco Island). Which of these the condo fee pays and which the owner pays directly is a budget question for the association.
Residents’ Beach is across North Collier Boulevard for owners and year-round renters who join the Marco Island Civic Association (Marco Island Civic Association). The public options are Tigertail Beach, a Collier County park on Hernando Drive on the island’s north-west shore, with a $10 daily parking fee for non-permit holders per the City (the County lists $8), restrooms and rentals, and South Marco Beach, with about 70 spaces off South Collier Boulevard (City of Marco Island beach access; Collier County Marco Island beaches). Collier County residents can get a free county beach parking sticker at the public library at 210 South Heathwood Drive.
The nearest supermarkets are on North Collier Boulevard: Winn-Dixie at 625 North Collier Boulevard, about 1.0 mile north in a straight line and open 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. (Winn-Dixie Marco Island), and Publix at Marco Town Center, 1089 North Collier Boulevard, about 1.3 miles, open 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. (Publix store 622).
NCH runs an urgent care center at 40 South Heathwood Drive on the island, about 0.9 miles from the complex in a straight line, open 8:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. daily, with CT and X-ray (NCH Marco Island urgent care), and its directory lists no emergency department on Marco Island (NCH locations, Marco Island). The nearest hospital emergency department is Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard in Naples (Physicians Regional hospitals), an estimated 10.6 miles and 18 minutes from the Marco Island end of the Jolley Bridge at free-flow speed.
Marco Island City Hall at 50 Bald Eagle Drive is about 1.0 mile from the complex in a straight line, the Collier County public library branch at 210 South Heathwood Drive about 1.1 miles, and the City’s Mackle Park at 1361 Andalusia Terrace about 1.1 miles (U.S. Census Bureau geocoder points). For a car-light owner, that is one of the most central addresses on the island.
Estimated free-flow drive times from the Marco Island end of the Jolley Bridge, modeled on the public OSRM router: Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) about 47 miles and 63 minutes; Fifth Avenue South in Naples about 16 miles and 27 minutes; Marco Island Executive Airport, a 5,000-foot general aviation field just north of the island with no scheduled airline service, about 4.5 miles (Collier County, Marco Island Executive Airport). Peak-season times run longer. Collier Area Transit runs a Marco Island circulator (Collier Area Transit routes).
Mariner Apartments and Aquarius are the two inland garden condominiums on the east side of North Collier Boulevard, about 0.3 miles apart, and they sell to different buyers: in the 24 months to 2026-10-07 Mariner’s median MLS sale was $417,500 for an 814 square foot two-bedroom, against $246,000 at Aquarius, where most units are studios and one-bedrooms. Mariner is the larger-unit, higher-fee choice; Aquarius is the entry price.

Mariner Apartments is one of the garden and low-rise complexes on the inland side of the Collier Boulevard beach towers, and it carries the highest price per square foot of them. Against the beachfront Gulfview tower directly across the road, it sells for about $280,000 less on a 24-month median.
Data updated: October 2026. 24 months to 2026-10-07, Southwest Florida MLS, except Beach View, which needs the 60-month window to reach ten closings; county roll data dated 2026-08-29.

Source: Southwest Florida MLS closings matched to each condominium’s street addresses on the Collier County roll, pulled 2026-10-07; Collier County roll; FEMA NFHL point tests at each complex’s addresses on 2026-10-07. Side of the boulevard follows the County’s address numbering and parcel layer and the City of Marco Island’s building records, which put Beach View on the east side of South Collier Boulevard across from Princess Del Mar and The Prince.
The table shows two price ladders at once. By unit, Mariner sits in the middle: above the small-unit complexes (Aquarius, Island Manor, Seabreeze), below Beach View’s larger units and well below Gulfview’s beachfront tower. By square foot, Mariner leads the inland side at about $513, which is the market paying for its location at the boulevard and Residents’ Beach and for a two-bedroom plan. Buyers who want more room for the money can compare Island Manor a block north; buyers who want the lowest price can compare Seabreeze and Aquarius; buyers who will pay for the beach itself can compare Gulfview Apartments across the road. The whole corridor is mapped in our gulf-front condos guide, the island in our Marco Island guide, and the mainland alternative in our Naples versus Marco Island comparison.

Mariner Apartments’ strengths are a two-bedroom plan at an inland price, Residents’ Beach across the road, two-story buildings outside the statutory milestone and SIRS regime on the City’s records, and a central address; its weaknesses are no Gulf view, one floor plan, a condo fee that rose about 60 percent in four years, falling 2026 prices and a flood zone AE site with the ground 4.5 to 5 feet below the base flood elevation.
If you’re searching for a Mariner Apartments listing agent, or thinking, ‘I need someone to sell my Mariner Apartments home…’, McGreevy and Comisar are the team to call. Mariner Apartments recorded 10 closings in the 24 months to 2026-10-07 at a median of $417,500, and the median one closed at about 96.9 percent of its final asking price.
In the 24 months to 2026-10-07 we tracked 10 Mariner Apartments resales on the Southwest Florida MLS: $4,018,500 in total volume, a median sale of $417,500, a median of 47.5 days on market, and a median sale-to-final-list ratio of about 96.9 percent. None of the 10 was entered after closing. In the last 12 months alone, 6 closed at a median of $380,000.
Selling here is a pricing exercise against identical units. Every Mariner unit is the same 814 square foot two-bedroom, so a buyer compares yours with the last three or four sales on condition, floor, building position and finish, and an appraiser does the same. Three Mariner specifics shape a sale: the fee has risen to about $10,140 a year as entered, so the listing should state the current figure and what it covers from the budget; buyers ask whether the milestone and SIRS laws apply, so have the association’s answer in writing; and a buyer who plans to rent needs the lease rules, so order the documents and the estoppel from Seacrest Southwest early. With no competing active listings on 2026-10-07, a well-prepared unit priced to the 2026 sales has the stage to itself.
Start with our free online valuation at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation, and we will build your number from the newest Mariner sales of comparable units, not the two-year median.

The median Mariner sale in the 24 months to 2026-10-07 took 47.5 days on the market, with a range from 15 days to 527 days (Southwest Florida MLS). Units priced near the newest sales sold fastest; the 527-day sale had started at a higher ask.
Usually close to it. The median Mariner sale closed at about 96.9 percent of its final list price in the 24 months to 2026-10-07, and one of 10 sold at its full final ask (Southwest Florida MLS).
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, and the seller customarily pays the documentary stamp tax on the deed; the signed contract controls on every sale.
Florida law requires the seller to provide the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual budget and financial statement, the milestone inspection summary if applicable, the latest structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none exists, and the frequently asked questions document (Fla. Stat. 718.503).
Only selectively. In the 24-month window identical 814 square foot units sold up to $92,500 apart, which shows buyers pay for condition and timing, but renovations need the association’s approval under its renovation rules and most need a City permit, so cosmetic work and repairs are usually the better bet before listing.
The record cuts both ways: prices in 2026 are below the 2023 and 2024 levels, but supply is the lowest it can be, with no active listings on 2026-10-07. A seller who needs to sell in the next year faces little direct competition today; a free valuation shows where your unit sits against the newest sales.

These answers draw on the sections above. Each figure carries its window and source there; the short versions are collected here for buyers.
Mariner Apartments is a 162-unit condominium of two-bedroom, two-bath flats in nine two-story garden buildings, completed in 1977 at the corner of San Marco Road and North Collier Boulevard. The association is The Mariner of Marco Island, Inc., and the state registers the condominium as project PR1S004698.
No. The complex is on the inland, east side of North Collier Boulevard, across the road from Residents’ Beach. Its nearest parcel edge sits about 165 meters from the County’s coastal construction line, and the Gulfview tower stands between the buildings and the water.
In the 24 months to 2026-10-07, 10 Mariner units closed on the Southwest Florida MLS at a median of $417,500, from $350,000 to $442,500. The last 12 months were lower: 6 closings at a median of $380,000.
Listing agents entered annual condo fees of $10,140 to $10,152 on every 2026 sale and on both listings pending on 2026-10-07, paid as $845 to $846 a month or $2,535 a quarter. These are figures as entered by listing agents; the association’s budget sets the real number and comes with the resale documents.
Every unit on the Collier County roll measures 814 to 828 heated square feet, and every Mariner sale on the MLS in the five years to 2026-10-07 was entered at 814 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths.
None was actively for sale on 2026-10-07. Two units were under contract with contingencies, listed at $387,700 and $389,000 (Southwest Florida MLS).
Owners do rent their units, and the association’s website carries rental pages. The minimum lease term, the number of leases a year and any approval step are set by the recorded Declaration and the association’s rules, which we did not read, so confirm them before you buy to rent. The City of Marco Island runs no rental registration program: it nullified its program in October 2023 after the SB 250 state law change, and nothing has replaced it.
Not confirmed. The Mariner pet rules are not public text we read, so read the Declaration and the current rules before you contract. Pets are prohibited at Residents’ Beach whatever the building rules say.
We found no published age restriction. A housing-for-older-persons designation would appear in the Declaration, so confirm it there.
FEMA zone AE at the three building addresses tested, with a base flood elevation of 9 feet NAVD88 at 56 Greenbrier Street and 10 feet at 20 Greenbrier Street and 762 San Marco Road, on FIRM panels 12021C0828J and 12021C0836J effective 2024-02-08. The ground at those points is 4.5 to 5.5 feet NAVD88, and the complex is in Collier County evacuation zone A.
A lender will usually require flood coverage on a unit in zone AE. A Citizens HO-6 policy on a condominium unit does not by itself trigger Citizens’ flood requirement, because the statute exempts unit owners’ forms, but the lender’s rule still applies.
Yes. FEMA’s list of Community Rating System communities effective October 1, 2026 shows the City of Marco Island at Class 5, a 25 percent premium discount for NFIP policies in the Special Flood Hazard Area, such as the zone AE units at Mariner.
On the public record, no. Both laws apply to buildings three habitable stories or higher; the City’s building layer records every Mariner building at two floors, and the City’s permit system holds no milestone case for the Mariner parcel. Ask the association for its written position, and remember that the Mariner budget must still carry reserves for roofs, painting and paving unless the owners vote to waive or reduce them.
Owners of improved island property can join the Marco Island Civic Association, which runs Residents’ Beach across the boulevard. Renters qualify only on a lease of a year or more, so short-term renters use the public beaches instead.
In Collier County the buyer customarily pays for the owner’s title insurance policy and chooses the closing agent, the reverse of neighbouring Lee County. The signed contract controls on every sale.
Florida law entitles a resale buyer, at the seller’s expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws and rules, the annual budget and financial statement, the milestone summary if applicable, the most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none exists, and the frequently asked questions document. The buyer can cancel within 7 days, excluding weekends and legal holidays, after receiving them.
The association’s website names Seacrest Southwest as its management company and lists an on-site office open Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Estoppel certificates and resale documents are requested through the manager.
Collier County Public Schools. Tommie Barfield Elementary, rated A for 2025-26, is about 1.1 miles away in a straight line, and the district’s attendance maps place Marco Island in the Manatee Middle and Lely High zones. Marco Island Charter Middle and Marco Island Academy enroll by application.
Winn-Dixie at 625 North Collier Boulevard is about 1.0 mile north and Publix at Marco Town Center about 1.3 miles, in straight lines. NCH’s urgent care on South Heathwood Drive is about 0.9 miles away; the island has no hospital emergency department, and the nearest is Physicians Regional Medical Center on Collier Boulevard in Naples.
It depends on what you need. Mariner’s 24-month median was $417,500 for an 814 square foot two-bedroom; Aquarius’s was $246,000, mostly for studios and one-bedrooms of 406 to 704 square feet, with lower entered fees of $5,796 to $6,804. Mariner is the larger-unit choice and the shorter walk to Residents’ Beach; Aquarius is the entry price.
Look for an agent who prices from the newest sales of the identical 814 square foot plan, knows the fee and documents buyers ask about, and can show a record. McGreevy and Comisar have been Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, and the comparison of Marco Island agents linked at the top of this guide sets out how local agents compare on the public record.
Start from the newest comparable sales, not the two-year median. The 6 sales of the 12 months to 2026-10-07 had a median of $380,000, and the two pending units were listed at $387,700 and $389,000. A free valuation places your unit against those sales by condition, floor and building.
Six closed on the Southwest Florida MLS in the 12 months to 2026-10-07, from $350,000 to $423,000.
$495,000, for unit 1-206 at 39 North Collier Boulevard in May 2024, after 10 days on the market (Southwest Florida MLS, 60 months to 2026-10-07). The 60-month median was $436,750 on 34 closings.
No. With one floor plan, the spread between sales comes from condition, floor, building position and timing: identical units sold $92,500 apart in the 24-month window, and the two $350,000 sales both came in 2026. Price from the last three or four sales.
Not measurably. In the 60 months to 2026-10-07, 14 first-floor sales had a median of $440,500 and 20 second-floor sales $436,250 (Southwest Florida MLS), a gap too small to call a premium either way.
The seller customarily pays Florida’s documentary stamp tax on the deed at 70 cents per $100, so a $380,000 sale carries $2,660 in deed stamps, plus the listing commission, the estoppel fee and any prorated assessments. The contract sets who pays what.
Florida caps the estoppel fee at $250 when nothing is delinquent, plus $100 for delivery within three business days and up to $150 more when an account is delinquent, adjusted for inflation every five years. The association has 10 business days to issue it.
Yes. Since October 1, 2024 a Florida seller of residential property must give the buyer a flood disclosure at or before contract, including any known flood damage, flood claims and federal flood assistance during ownership.
It is the first number buyers ask about: the entered fee rose from $6,348 a year on the 2022 sales to $10,140 to $10,152 in 2026. State the current figure in the listing and have the budget ready to show what it covers, so the fee is explained before it becomes a reason to discount.
Yes, if the buyer’s plan fits the Mariner leasing rules in the Declaration and the board’s rules. Order those documents early so a rental buyer can confirm the minimum term and any approval step before the contract’s review period runs out.
Less than at the towers. The City’s records show two-story buildings and no milestone case for the parcel, so a buyer’s lender focuses on the budget, reserves, insurance and any special assessment. Have the association’s written position on the milestone and SIRS laws ready.
The median Mariner sale in the 24 months to 2026-10-07 took 47.5 days on the market, from 15 to 527 days. Units priced near the newest sales sold fastest.
Ten closed on the Southwest Florida MLS in the 24 months to 2026-10-07, for $4,018,500 in total volume, at a median of $417,500. None of the ten was entered after closing.
Three units closed in calendar 2025, at $415,000, $429,000 and $442,500; the median of these three sales is $429,000 (Southwest Florida MLS).
Yes, on thin data. The six 2026 closings have a median of $380,000, against MLS medians of $462,500 in 2023 and $450,000 in 2024. Two of the six closed at $350,000, the lowest Mariner price in five years of MLS records.
About $513 per square foot on the median of the 10 sales in the 24 months to 2026-10-07, and about $467 on the 6 sales of the last 12 months (Southwest Florida MLS, median of each sale’s price per square foot).
Some will look, but they price it against the inland complexes. In the 24 months to 2026-10-07 Gulfview, the beachfront tower across the boulevard, sold at about $644 per square foot against about $513 at Mariner, and Aquarius and Island Manor at about $430 and $462.
None active. On 2026-10-07 no Mariner unit was actively for sale and two were under contract with contingencies, so a new listing enters the market without a direct competitor in the complex.
That depends on the Declaration, which sets whether the board approves buyers. Listing agents have entered a $150 application fee on recent Mariner listings, which points to an application step; ask the manager for the packet and timeline when you list.
Usually the buyer or tenant who applies. Florida law allows the fee only when the association must approve the transfer and its documents provide for it, and caps it at $150 per applicant, adjusted for inflation; recent Mariner entries show $150.
The condominium as well as the buyer: the budget, reserves, master insurance, any special assessment and any litigation. Ask the manager for the lender questionnaire when you list so a financed buyer is not slowed down late in the contract.
Buyers will ask. The complex is in zone AE with a base flood elevation of 9 or 10 feet and ground of 4.5 to 5.5 feet at the points tested, so a buyer’s insurance quote turns on the building’s Elevation Certificate. Ask the association or the City floodplain office for it before you list.
It is part of the conversation. The National Hurricane Center recorded a 7.38-foot storm tide at the Marco Island sensor in Ian, against ground of 4.5 to 5.5 feet at the Mariner points tested; your flood disclosure answers what happened at your unit.
Yes. Furniture is personal property, so list what conveys in the contract or a bill of sale; a lender’s appraiser values the real estate only.
Yes, subject to the lease and the Mariner leasing rules. The buyer takes the unit subject to the lease, so provide the lease, the rent and the end date early, and confirm the board approved the tenancy if the Declaration requires approval.
Repairs that a buyer’s inspector would flag, and paint and cleaning. Larger renovations need the association’s approval under its renovation rules and most need a City permit, and in the 24-month window the market paid for condition rather than for one plan over another.
In our reading of the sales and the location, second-home owners who use the unit part of the year, retirees who want a lock-and-leave base near Residents’ Beach, and owners who rent within the association’s rules when they are away.
You can, but with one floor plan and no competing active listings on 2026-10-07, open exposure is what produces the best offer. A quiet sale trades that exposure for privacy.
