Pros About Coastal Condo Living: Are Condos Right for You?

Coastal condominiums are becoming one of the most sought-after places to live. Not only do condos situated near the water have excellent views but living a short distance from the beach has health benefits, as well. In this article, you’ll learn the many pros about coastal condo living to determine if they are the right fit for you and your family.

Let’s get started!

6 Pros About Coastal Condo Living:

1. Maintenance Staff

One of the biggest pros about costal condo living are the fact that they have a maintenance staff. For you, that means no more mowing the lawn, trimming the bushes, or cleaning the pool.

While there will always be stuff you can improve upon in your humble abode, at least you don’t have to worry about the landscaping and other community upkeep.

All luxurious condominium complexes have a full-time staff for everyday maintenance. From early morning to the late afternoon, the staff works hard to complete the grunt work of keeping your new home in perfect shape.

At Palma Sola Bay Club, we have a full-time property manager maintaining the grounds and keeping them beautiful. Plus, also handle after-hours emergencies in case you’re in a pickle.

2. Downsize in Style

While you might be surprised at how large coastal condos can really get, you don’t want to bring every single thing with you when you move. After all, moving is a hassle for everyone involved and the less you bring with you, the less you have to move from home to condo.

A tip is to make an inventory list of everything you find essential and important, then donate the rest. While there will always be items you hold near and dear to your heart, there is just something about a clean, clutter-free condo that triumphs over a crowded space.

Upgrade the quality of living by de-cluttering and downsizing before you move so it makes the transition easier for you and your family.

3. Incredible Views 

When you live in a coastal condo, you’ll have wide windows, a balcony, and plenty of places to catch mother nature’s beauty. While everyone is a big fan of sunsets, you might be stunned to find out just how beautiful sunrises and the bright moon over the water can really be.

If you are a night owl and have windows facing east, you will be delighted to view the moon rising over the Palma Sola Bay. A beautiful bright moon rising steadily over the coast or bay is a sight to see and appreciate in your new condo, especially with a glass of wine.

Picture this: You’re a resident at Palma Sola Bay Club and it’s approaching sunset time. You call over your loved ones and sit comfortably on your balcony overlooking the sunset over the horizon. You and your family gaze upon the glowing sun as it makes its decent towards the bay. The sky changes colors from light blue to warm orange. Then it changes to pink and purple streaks near the clouds as the sun sets. These sunsets with soft golden hues over the water can be your reality.

4. Health Benefits 

Did you know living near the water gives you and your family health benefits? Allergies can be a pain but living near the bay can improve your allergies and more.

In fact, it is the iodine, salt and magnesium present in the sea air that reduces allergy-like symptoms – symptoms of asthma – and can even promote respiratory and skin health. Not only does the sea air provide much needed nutrients, but also the saltwater has healing properties as well.

Your physical health will improve by living near the beach because saltwater is rich in minerals such as magnesium, chloride, sodium, potassium and more. Numerous studies across the world have found that soaking in saltwater is great for sensitive skin.

Plus, Palma Sola Bay Club is only a short drive to Anna Maria Island and Bradenton Beach. In fact, it takes less than 10 minutes to get from Palma Sola Bay Club to Bradenton Beach.

In addition, you cannot forget about the plethora of outdoor activities you can get involved in by living near the beach. A more active lifestyle is a healthier lifestyle. Pick up surfing, paddle boarding or even kayaking with Palma Sola Bay Club’s kayak launch as a new hobby.

5. Fresh Seafood 

Are you a big fan of fresh fish? Then living in a coastal condominium is the right choice. Living in a condo near the gulf means you will be able to access fresh seafood all of the time.

While you can have fresh seafood for dinner every night in your own home, there are also plenty of local restaurants who serve daily fresh seafood. It’s a nice luxury to be able to dine out and enjoy the culture of your new community.

Speaking of local restaurants near the bay, there will also be plenty of breakfast places to get your grub on. I encourage you to stop in a local Bradenton breakfast place. You will soon find out that there is nothing better than a fresh crab eggs benedict or a smoked salmon bagel to start your day.

Some local breakfast joints to check out near Palma Sola Bay Club include First Watch on Cortez Road, Sage Biscuit Café and Island Creperie on Bradenton Beach.

6. A New Relaxing Day, Everyday 

When living in Palma Sola Bay Club, there is always something to see – whether that be a sunrise when you’re having your morning coffee, a dolphin making a splash appearance over the coast, or some neighboring manatees visiting you on your kayak. You will never be bored living here.

While there are plenty of things to look at, the coast can even boost your mental health. According to the University of Exeter, researchers have found that living near the coastline is linked with better mental health. The study shows scientific research supporting that coastal living helps in warding off depression and anxiety.

Another study provided by the National Library of Medicine, also found that even just having a view of the water can promote improvements in mood, interest and a reduction in heart rate. You don’t even have to get your feet wet to experience an improvement in your mental health. Simply gazing upon the bay with your loved ones next to you puts your worries into perspective.
