Gulf Crest HOA Fees & What They Cover

Rental Program
Rental policies — including any minimum-stay requirements — are set by the association and can change. Confirm current rental rules with Doug or the HOA before assuming a short-term rental use is allowed.
Peak Season
Like most PCB gulf-front buildings, demand is strongest March–August, with shoulder months seeing increasing activity.
The east-end location on Thomas Drive appeals to buyers seeking a quieter stretch of beach. Rental income potential varies by unit, floor, and management — ask for actual rental history on a specific unit rather than relying on building-wide estimates.
