The Rental Management Company (Sandestin) has absolutely no control or relationship with the individual Home Owner Associations for each neighborhood/building. The annual budget and levels of service are decided on by the HOA at regular and annual meetings. All homeowners are responsible to pay their fair share of these fees, which represent the overall costs of operating and maintaining your neighborhood or building, whether they are participating in a rental program or not. HOA fees vary with what is included and you should refer to the association manager for your neighborhood/building to find out specifics on rules, regulations, and coverage. A detailed account and list of these items can be found in your neighborhood documents. The SOA (Sandestin Owner's Association) is a third-party organization independent of Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, maintaining the security, roadways, landscaping, and lakes on behalf of Sandestin property owners. The monies collected do not revert back to the operation of the resort. In fact, Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort is the second largest contributor to the SOA based on assessments for commercial space, golf courses, tennis courts, swimming pools, and the undeveloped company-owned parcels and lots.
