Kings Crown Condos for Sale

Thirteen Residences, a Private Boat Ramp and Weekly Rentals

Kings Crown is a two-story, thirteen-residence property at 10540 Gulf Shore Drive, built in 1962 on Vanderbilt Lagoon with deeded beach access across the street. It is the rare Vanderbilt Beach address that permits seven-day rentals and up to fifty-two leases a year, and the only one with its own private boat ramp.

Kings Crown attracts two very different buyers — those who want a weekly-rental income property on the beach, and those looking at the land beneath it. Tell us which conversation you are having and we will give you the honest numbers. Call (239) 438-1102.

The Rental Policy Is the Point

Almost every association on Gulf Shore Drive restricts owners to a 30-day minimum and a handful of leases a year. Kings Crown permits seven-day stays and as many as fifty-two leases annually, a legacy of its original use as a condo motel and its position inside Collier County’s Tourist Development District. For an owner running a short-term rental, that difference is the whole investment case: a residence here can turn over weekly through the season rather than monthly.

The building is honest about what it is. Completed in 1962, it is a two-story property of thirteen modest units with a community pool, not a luxury tower. Buyers should review reserves, the age of building systems and the association’s reporting carefully, and should confirm the current rental rules and any registration requirements before purchasing with income in mind.

Water on Both Sides, and the Land Underneath

Kings Crown sits on Vanderbilt Lagoon with water rights, docks and slips, and its own private boat ramp — genuinely unusual on this street, where even large buildings typically lease slips or have none at all. Boat size is restricted by the route and the bridges, so confirm what your vessel can clear before counting on the dock. Deeded beach access sits directly across Gulf Shore Drive, putting the Gulf a short walk from the front door.

The property also carries land-use significance that buyers should understand. It sits in the Tourist Development District with zoning that permits multi-family, hotel and motel, and timeshare uses, on a parcel with meaningful air rights. That combination has drawn redevelopment interest over the years, and it is a factor in how the underlying land is valued relative to the existing units. Anyone buying here should weigh both the income case and the land case. On foot, LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort is about a block away, the Turtle Club, Buzz’s Lighthouse and the Ritz-Carlton’s restaurants are along the same corridor, and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park is a short walk north.

Property details, zoning, association rules and dock availability are believed accurate but are not guaranteed and are subject to change. Verify all information with the association, Collier County and through your own due diligence.
