Plantation Marco Island Condos for Sale

1000 S Collier Boulevard • Caxambas Pass • Gulf Waterfront • South Marco Island

The Plantation is a gated Gulf-waterfront condominium at 1000 S Collier Boulevard near the southern end of Marco Island. Completed in 1991, the approximately 10-story building contains only about 79 residences overlooking Caxambas Pass, the Gulf of Mexico and the Ten Thousand Islands.

Plantation combines a comparatively low residence count with an unusually broad range of floor plans, including conventional two- and three-bedroom condominiums, larger custom residences, combined units and rare penthouse-scale homes approaching or exceeding approximately 3,800 square feet.

Plantation at 1000 S Collier Boulevard

Plantation occupies a prominent south-island waterfront position immediately north of Caxambas Pass. The setting creates a mixture of open Gulf water, active pass traffic and natural island views that differs substantially from the developed central Crescent Beach corridor.

Owners can watch yachts, fishing boats, dolphins, manatees and coastal birdlife while remaining close to South Beach, restaurants, shopping and the southern Marco Island commercial area.

Only About 79 Residences

Plantation's approximately 79-unit population creates a lower-density alternative to Marco Island's largest beachfront towers.

Limited inventory also means that a buyer searching for a particular floor plan, high-floor position or Gulf orientation may encounter periods with few directly comparable listings.

Plantation Floor Plans

Plantation contains more residence-size variation than many single-building condominiums on Marco Island.

Approx. 1,154 Sq. Ft.

Smaller one-bedroom-plus-den or flexible configurations providing a more manageable entry into the building.

Approx. 1,337–1,345 Sq. Ft.

A recurring conventional category commonly configured with two bedrooms or two bedrooms plus flexible den space.

Approx. 1,457 Sq. Ft.

Three-bedroom residences providing additional guest or office flexibility with Gulf and pass-view opportunities.

Approx. 1,810 Sq. Ft.

One of Plantation's stronger conventional luxury categories, typically offering three bedrooms and materially more interior living area.

Approx. 2,800+ Sq. Ft.

Rare combined or custom residences requiring individual legal and valuation analysis.

Approx. 3,800+ Sq. Ft.

Penthouse-scale and large custom residences forming a separate upper luxury comparison category.

1,337- to 1,345-Square-Foot Residences

Approximately 1,337 to 1,345 square feet is one of Plantation's recurring conventional residence categories.

These homes commonly provide two bedrooms and two baths or a two-bedroom-plus-den arrangement depending on the exact plan and renovation history. Principal living areas and primary suites frequently connect with waterfront lanais.

1,457-Square-Foot Three-Bedroom Condos

Approximately 1,457-square-foot residences provide true three-bedroom functionality within a relatively manageable condominium footprint.

Upper-floor examples can combine this bedroom flexibility with broad Gulf, Caxambas Pass and island views, making them useful comparisons for buyers who want additional guest capacity without moving into Plantation's largest residence categories.

1,810-Square-Foot Luxury Residences

The approximately 1,810-square-foot residences belong in a stronger luxury category within Plantation.

Their additional interior area can materially affect value compared with 1,337- or 1,457-square-foot homes. A renovated high-floor 1,810-square-foot residence should therefore be analyzed against similar large Plantation properties rather than one building-wide average.

Combined & Penthouse Residences

Plantation contains rare combined, custom and penthouse configurations that are substantially larger than the conventional residences below.

Historical records document combined homes around 2,800 square feet and penthouse-scale residences approaching or exceeding approximately 3,800 square feet.

Buyers should verify the exact legal unit structure, recorded interior area, association-approved alterations, parking rights, storage and balcony configuration before comparing one of these residences with conventional Plantation units.

Caxambas Pass Views

Plantation looks directly toward Caxambas Pass, one of Marco Island's major navigable waterways.

The view is active rather than static: owners can observe recreational boats, fishing vessels and yachts moving between the Gulf and surrounding waterways throughout the day.

Gulf of Mexico Views

Many Plantation residences provide direct or angled Gulf exposure. Higher floors can extend the horizon and increase privacy, while lower elevations maintain a closer visual connection with the shoreline and waterfront grounds.

Stack and floor should therefore be established before asking price or recent sales are compared.

Ten Thousand Islands Views

Southern and southeastern exposures can open toward the Ten Thousand Islands and their mangrove waterways.

This natural coastal panorama creates a very different visual experience from the more developed beachfront skyline farther north on Marco Island.

Sunrise & Sunset

Depending on residence position, owners may experience morning light over Caxambas Pass and the Ten Thousand Islands or evening sunsets toward the Gulf.

Corner and larger residences can provide more than one exposure, making balcony orientation especially important.

Private Balconies & Lanais

Outdoor living is an important part of Plantation ownership. Many residences connect living areas and primary bedrooms with Gulf- or pass-facing balconies, while selected plans include multiple outdoor spaces.

Buyers should compare usable dimensions, orientation, privacy, wind, waterproofing, railings, tile, shutters and impact protection.

Private Waterfront Beach Area

Plantation provides a private waterfront sunning and beach area along its Gulf and Caxambas Pass shoreline.

This should not be confused with the broad sand frontage of central Crescent Beach. Plantation's shoreline is part of its distinctive pass-front and open-water lifestyle.

Fishing Pier

Plantation's private fishing pier extends directly into the Caxambas Pass waterfront environment.

Residents can fish, watch boats and enjoy the surrounding coastal scenery without leaving the condominium grounds.

Water-Direct Gulf Location

Current MLS records identify Plantation as water-direct with access toward Gulf waters without fixed bridges.

Plantation is not primarily a private-slip marina condominium, so buyers should never assume that a particular dock or boating right transfers with an individual residence unless it is specifically documented.

Pool, Spa & Sauna

Plantation provides a heated waterfront swimming pool, spa and resident sauna within its landscaped recreational setting.

These amenities complement the property's fishing pier, beach area, waterfront walking and Gulf setting.

Fitness, Tennis & Pickleball

Owners have access to an on-site fitness facility together with tennis and pickleball.

Court scheduling, equipment, organized play and guest rules should be verified through current association information.

Clubhouse & Social Facilities

Plantation provides indoor gathering facilities for resident meetings and social activities, together with library and common-use spaces.

Barbecue, Picnic & Fire-Pit Areas

Outdoor barbecue and picnic facilities provide additional places for owners to gather within the waterfront grounds. Recent property information also identifies a fire-pit area.

Covered Parking & Storage

Conventional residences generally include covered or under-building parking together with owner storage, but exact rights must be confirmed.

  • Verify the specific parking space transferring with the condominium.
  • Confirm assigned, deeded or limited-common-element status.
  • Review private storage location and dimensions.
  • Confirm bicycle-storage procedures.
  • Review guest parking and electric-vehicle rules.

Gated & Secured Building

Plantation maintains gated access and controlled entry into the residential building.

Current access systems and guest procedures should be confirmed with management because technology and operating policies may change.

Impact Glass & Hurricane Protection

Many Plantation residences have received impact-window and door upgrades, while others may use manual or electric hurricane shutters.

Storm protection is residence-specific. Buyers should verify permits, installation dates, product approvals and owner-versus-association responsibility for windows, sliders and shutters.

Renovated vs. More Original Condos

Since Plantation was completed in 1991, individual interiors now range from substantially original to extensively renovated.

Updated homes may include redesigned kitchens and baths, custom cabinetry, stone or quartz counters, modern flooring, premium appliances, impact glass and newer mechanical equipment.

Permanent characteristics should still be matched first: floor plan, interior area, stack, floor, Gulf exposure, balcony, parking and storage.

Plantation Rental Rules

Current MLS information identifies a 30-day minimum rental period.

Buyers planning to lease should verify the current minimum term, permitted number of leases, application requirements, fees, approval procedures, guest restrictions and occupancy rules through the current condominium documents.

Plantation Pet Policy

Current MLS records identify pets as not permitted under conventional association rules.

Buyers should obtain the current written policy before purchasing based on pet ownership and obtain appropriate professional advice concerning any legally applicable accommodation requirements.

Association & Structural Due Diligence

A Plantation purchase requires careful review of both the private residence and the condominium association.

Operating Budget

Review recurring expenses, contracts, utilities and current obligations.

Reserve Funding

Review reserves, applicable reserve studies and future funding needs.

Structural Information

Review applicable milestone, engineering and structural reserve records.

Master Insurance

Review property, wind and flood-related coverage and deductibles.

Balconies & Exterior

Review concrete, railings, waterproofing and planned restoration work.

Assessments

Confirm outstanding, approved, contemplated or discussed assessments.

Flood & Wind Due Diligence

Plantation's direct coastal location makes flood and wind review especially important.

Buyers should review current flood-zone information, association property and flood insurance, wind coverage, deductibles, storm history, water-intrusion history and responsibility for exterior components.

Recent Building Improvements

Current listing information references several recent Plantation property improvements, including exterior painting, roof work, a raised fishing pier, building generator, garage-area improvements and water-system work.

Buyers should verify completion dates, warranties, reserve treatment and any remaining projects through current association records rather than relying solely on listing descriptions.

How to Value a Plantation Condo

  • Floor plan: separate 1,337-, 1,457- and 1,810-square-foot residences.
  • Custom status: treat combined and penthouse residences separately.
  • Legal configuration: verify recorded unit structure and alterations.
  • Floor: elevation influences privacy and Gulf panorama.
  • Stack: same-stack sales best preserve permanent orientation.
  • View: distinguish Gulf, Caxambas Pass and Ten Thousand Islands exposure.
  • Balcony: compare usable outdoor area and direction.
  • Parking: verify exact rights.
  • Storage: confirm private allocation.
  • Storm protection: compare impact glass and shutters.
  • Renovation: adjust after permanent characteristics are aligned.
  • Association condition: account for reserves, insurance, assessments and capital work.

Compare Nearby Luxury Waterfront Condos

Plantation vs. Shipp's Landing

Shipp's Landing occupies the same southern Marco Island waterfront market but provides low-rise, mid-rise and high-rise options across a larger multi-phase community with marina facilities.

Plantation provides a more uniform single-building ownership experience with direct Gulf and Caxambas Pass views, rare combined residences and substantial penthouse opportunities.

Plantation vs. Cape Marco

Cape Marco occupies a newer and generally higher-priced luxury category with guard-gated Gulf-front towers and very large premium residences.

Plantation can provide a more accessible south-island waterfront entry while still offering large residences, panoramic Gulf/pass exposure and substantial amenities.

Plantation vs. Courtyard Towers

Courtyard Towers emphasizes large three-bedroom floor plans, low-density mid-rise living and boating-oriented navigable waterfront.

Plantation places greater emphasis on open Gulf/Caxambas Pass frontage, fishing-pier access and a broader range of residence sizes extending into rare combined and penthouse-scale homes.

Buying a Plantation Condo

Begin with the exact floor-plan category and confirm air-conditioned living area. Determine whether the residence is conventional, combined, custom or penthouse-scale before comparing price per square foot.

Next evaluate stack, floor, Gulf/pass exposure, balcony configuration, parking and storage. Review storm protection, association financials, reserves, structural records, insurance and assessments before closing.

Selling a Plantation Condo

Sellers should begin with recent Plantation transactions from the closest floor-plan family and same stack whenever possible.

A 1,337-square-foot conventional residence should not be priced directly against a 1,810-square-foot three-bedroom condominium or a 3,800-square-foot penthouse without substantial adjustment.

After residence category is aligned, floor elevation, Gulf exposure, balcony configuration, parking, storage and association condition provide the strongest permanent value adjustments.

Plantation Market Activity

Plantation contains only about 79 residences, so active inventory can be limited and can shift quickly between floor-plan categories.

Current MLS records identify active properties under Building Name Plantation. Use the live IDX inventory below rather than the older subdivision-only search that no longer returns the building's current active listings.

The Marco Island Waterfront Condo Market Report provides broader waterfront context. Individual Plantation value should then return to residence size, floor, stack, Gulf/pass exposure and association condition.
