Sunset Key: Luxury Waterfront Living at Burnt Store Marina

by Hunt Brothers Realty

 

 

Sunset Key is the waterfront residential setting along Sunset Key Circle on Prosperity Point inside Burnt Store Marina. The double-gated peninsula extends between marina basins toward Charlotte Harbor and contains a diverse collection of luxury detached residences, villa and townhome-style condominiums, and waterfront condominium towers. Depending on the property, owners can have Charlotte Harbor, marina, canal, lagoon or landscaped views. Sunset Key is not one uniform condominium association, so fees, amenities, pools, parking, dock rights and maintenance responsibilities vary significantly by residence and individual association.

Sunset Key properties carry Punta Gorda, Florida 33955 mailing addresses, but the peninsula is physically located in Lee County. Buyers should use Lee County records when researching property-specific taxes, permits, flood information and other county matters. The setting combines residential waterfront living with convenient proximity to Burnt Store Marina's deep-water boating environment, although ownership should never be assumed to include a marina slip or every recreational facility within the larger community.

Quick Answers About Sunset Key

Where Is Sunset Key?

Sunset Key is on Prosperity Point within gated Burnt Store Marina. Properties use Punta Gorda 33955 mailing addresses, but the peninsula is in Lee County and sits between the marina basins with Charlotte Harbor immediately to the west.

Is Sunset Key One Condominium Community?

No. Sunset Key Circle contains several separately governed residential communities and property types. These include detached residences, villa and townhome-style condominiums, and waterfront condominium towers, so buyers need to identify the exact association attached to a property.

What Types of Homes Are on Sunset Key?

Sunset Key offers one of the more varied housing collections inside Burnt Store Marina. Buyers can find detached pool homes, attached villa and townhome-style residences, low-rise waterfront condominiums and seven-story luxury condominium towers.

Is Sunset Key Waterfront?

Much of the peninsula has a strong waterfront orientation, but the exact relationship with the water varies by property. Residences can overlook Charlotte Harbor, a marina basin, canal frontage, an interior lagoon or landscaped common areas.

Does a Sunset Key Property Include a Boat Slip?

A boat slip should not be assumed to come with Sunset Key ownership. Burnt Store Marina provides extensive wet and dry boat storage, but marina arrangements are generally separate unless the title and transaction documents for a specific property establish private dock or boating rights.

Is Sunset Key Gated?

Yes. Burnt Store Marina is gated, and Prosperity Point adds another controlled entrance before reaching Sunset Key Circle. This creates a double-gated residential setting for properties on the peninsula.

Are There High-Rise Condos on Sunset Key?

Yes. Sunset Key Circle includes the waterfront towers historically developed as Grande Isle. Towers I and II retain the Grande Isle identity, while the buildings at 3329 and 3333 Sunset Key Circle are now presented as Sunset Pointe Towers North and South.

How Much Are Sunset Key HOA or Condo Fees?

There is no single Sunset Key fee. Costs depend on the individual sub-association, property type and applicable Prosperity Point and Burnt Store Marina master obligations. Buyers should obtain current budgets and an estoppel for the exact property rather than applying one listing's fees to the entire peninsula.

What Is Sunset Key at Burnt Store Marina?

Sunset Key Circle runs through Prosperity Point, a waterfront peninsula inside Burnt Store Marina. The peninsula extends toward Charlotte Harbor between portions of the marina, creating a setting where water is visible from many residences and common areas.

The important distinction for buyers is that Sunset Key is a location containing several residential associations rather than one interchangeable development. Two properties separated by only a short distance on Sunset Key Circle can have very different ownership structures, fees, insurance responsibilities and amenities.

That diversity is part of Sunset Key's appeal, but it also makes property-specific research essential.

What Communities Are on Sunset Key Circle?

Several distinct residential communities share the Sunset Key Circle and Prosperity Point setting. Buyers may encounter:

  • Sunset Key and Sunset Key II, detached residences under land-condominium ownership structures
  • Topaz Cove, spacious villa and townhome-style condominiums surrounding an interior lagoon
  • Emerald Isle, low-rise waterfront condominiums with marina-oriented locations
  • Grande Isle Towers I and II, luxury high-rise condominium residences overlooking Charlotte Harbor and the marina environment
  • Sunset Pointe Towers North and South, the buildings at 3329 and 3333 Sunset Key Circle formerly associated with the Grande Isle III and IV identity

Each community has its own governing structure and property characteristics. Buyers should therefore begin every Sunset Key comparison by identifying the legal subdivision and association rather than relying solely on the street address.

What Are the Detached Homes on Sunset Key Like?

Sunset Key includes detached residences that provide a very different ownership experience from the condominium towers. Current property data documents two, three and four-bedroom homes, with private pools and garages characteristic of the detached residences reviewed.

A current Hunt Brothers Realty listing at 3341 Sunset Key Circle, for example, documents a four-bedroom, four-bath detached residence of approximately 2,823 square feet. The 2001 home includes a private pool and two-car garage and occupies a waterfront location along the canal leading toward the marina's north basin.

Current public records also show meaningful variation among detached residences in size, floor plan and waterfront orientation. Buyers should evaluate the individual parcel rather than assuming that every Sunset Key home has the same view or private boating arrangement.

What Are the Luxury Condos on Sunset Key Like?

The condominium choices on Sunset Key range from lower-rise residences to substantial waterfront towers. This gives buyers several ways to combine condominium ownership with the Prosperity Point setting.

What Is Topaz Cove?

Topaz Cove is a 68-residence condominium community with villa and townhome-style floor plans, screened lanais and attached two-car garages. The residences surround an interior lagoon with a heated island pool and spa, creating a lower-density alternative to tower living.

What Are Grande Isle Towers?

Grande Isle Towers provide high-rise waterfront living on Prosperity Point. Three-bedroom residences are characteristic of the towers, with current listings documenting larger floor plans, screened lanais, private elevator entry, under-building parking and expansive Charlotte Harbor or marina views depending on residence orientation.

What Are Sunset Pointe Towers?

The seven-story buildings at 3329 and 3333 Sunset Key Circle are currently presented as Sunset Pointe Towers North and South. They sit near the western end of Prosperity Point, with water on multiple sides and expansive views toward Charlotte Harbor and the marina environment.

Older listings and records may still reference Grande Isle Towers III and IV. Buyers should use current association documents to identify the governing association and obligations attached to a particular condominium.

What Kind of Waterfront Views Are Available?

Sunset Key's position creates several distinct types of water views. Some tower residences look west across Charlotte Harbor, while others face marina basins or portions of Prosperity Point. Detached residences can occupy canal or marina-oriented waterfront sites, while Topaz Cove focuses more on its interior lagoon environment.

The exact view can vary significantly by building, floor, orientation and neighboring development. A listing described as being on Sunset Key Circle should not automatically be interpreted as having an unobstructed Charlotte Harbor view.

Buyers prioritizing sunsets or open-water views should evaluate the actual residence and orientation rather than relying only on the Sunset Key name.

What Is Boating Like from Sunset Key?

Sunset Key sits immediately within the boating environment of Burnt Store Marina. The larger community is positioned directly on Charlotte Harbor and provides deep-water marina facilities with wet slips, dry storage and boat-launch access.

The Hunt Brothers Realty Burnt Store Marina guide explains the larger boating setting, including the marina's connection to Charlotte Harbor and the route toward Boca Grande Pass and the Gulf of Mexico.

Does Every Sunset Key Property Have a Private Dock?

No. Private dockage should not be assumed. Some detached waterfront properties have documented pier, dock or lift improvements, but those features are property-specific and their legal status should be verified through title and transaction documents.

Does a Sunset Key Condo Include a Marina Slip?

Condominium ownership should not be interpreted as automatically including a Burnt Store Marina slip. Marina storage is generally arranged separately unless the specific property's title and transaction documents establish otherwise.

Boat owners should verify current wet-slip or dry-storage availability, vessel limits, pricing, utilities, insurance requirements, contracts and marina rules directly with the marina operator before making a real estate purchase dependent on boat storage.

What Amenities Are Available on Prosperity Point?

Amenity access on Sunset Key depends on the individual association. Buyers should distinguish between Prosperity Point shared facilities, amenities belonging to a specific condominium association and recreational facilities elsewhere in Burnt Store Marina.

Association materials document Prosperity Point Master Association responsibilities and shared facilities on the peninsula. Individual communities add their own features. For example, Topaz Cove has an island-style heated pool and spa, while Grande Isle provides a substantially larger tower-oriented amenity program.

Buyers should verify which amenities they have a legal right to use and which association funds those facilities before comparing recurring ownership costs.

Which Burnt Store Marina Amenities Are Separate?

Living on Sunset Key places owners close to Burnt Store Marina's boating, golf, dining and recreational environment, but proximity does not mean every facility is included in the property's association fees.

The broader Burnt Store Marina community includes a 27-hole golf facility, marina services, dining and fitness and racquet opportunities. Current access, memberships, fees and operating arrangements should be verified directly with the applicable facility or operator.

A buyer comparing Sunset Key properties should separate included association amenities from optional memberships and separately operated commercial services.

How Much Are Sunset Key Association Fees?

There is no accurate single fee figure for Sunset Key because the peninsula contains multiple associations and property types. Applying the fee from one condominium tower to a detached home or a Topaz Cove residence would be misleading.

A current Hunt Brothers Realty listing for 3341 Sunset Key Circle, for example, reports a $405 condominium fee, a separate $1,660 annual HOA amount and annual recurring fees of $7,714 for that specific detached Sunset Key II residence. Those figures should not be applied to other properties.

Tower residences can have substantially different association expenses. Buyers should obtain current figures for the individual condominium or land-condominium association, Prosperity Point Master Association when applicable, and Burnt Store Marina Section 22, then confirm the total through the transaction-specific estoppel.

What Should Buyers Know About the Association Structure?

Sunset Key ownership can involve multiple layers of governance. Depending on the property, an owner may have obligations to an individual condominium or land-condominium association, the Prosperity Point Master Association and the broader Punta Gorda Isles Section 22 organization governing Burnt Store Marina.

Association materials for Grande Isle Towers, for example, specifically identify separate obligations involving the tower association, Prosperity Point and Section 22.

Buyers should identify every governing association, the assessment charged by each, the responsibilities funded by those assessments and any pending or approved special assessments. Questions involving the legal effect of governing documents or ownership obligations should be reviewed with a qualified Florida real estate attorney.

What Should Buyers Know About Grande Isle Towers I and II in 2026?

Buyers considering Grande Isle Towers I and II should be aware of a significant current association matter. Grande Isle Towers I & II Condominium Association, Inc. filed a voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition on April 27, 2026, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Fort Myers Division.

This matter should not be generalized to all Sunset Key properties. Other communities and associations on the peninsula are separately governed, including the buildings now operating as Sunset Pointe Towers North and South.

Anyone considering Towers I or II should obtain current court filings, association financial statements, budgets, reserve information, insurance documents, assessment information, meeting minutes and lender requirements. The legal and financial consequences of an active Chapter 11 proceeding depend on current facts and the individual transaction and should be reviewed with the buyer's qualified Florida attorney, lender, insurance professional, title professional and other appropriate specialists.

What Should Buyers Know About Flood and Insurance?

Sunset Key's waterfront location makes flood and wind insurance important parts of property-specific due diligence. Flood-zone information can vary even across the peninsula, and a broad neighborhood description should not substitute for the current flood determination and elevation information for an individual property.

Insurance responsibilities also vary by ownership structure. A detached land-condominium residence, low-rise condominium and high-rise tower can have different divisions of responsibility between the association and individual owner.

Insurance availability, coverage, deductibles, exclusions and premiums can vary substantially by property and association. Buyers should obtain property-specific quotes and review the applicable master policies and individual coverage requirements with a qualified insurance professional before making a purchasing decision.

Are Sunset Key Homes and Condos for Sale?

Sunset Key had multiple active listings across several property types during November 2026. Because these residences belong to different associations, buyers should compare them as distinct ownership opportunities rather than treating Sunset Key Circle as one condominium market.

A current detached residence at 3341 Sunset Key Circle was offered at approximately $935,000. The four-bedroom, four-bath home contains approximately 2,823 square feet and has a private pool and two-car garage.

In the tower market, 3313 Sunset Key Circle Unit 701 was offered at approximately $975,000, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and nearly 2,500 square feet of living area. Other tower and low-rise condominium inventory was available at lower price points.

Prices and listing status can change quickly. Buyers should verify current availability before using an individual listing as a market benchmark.

How Does Sunset Key Compare With Other Burnt Store Marina Neighborhoods?

Sunset Key stands apart primarily because of its Prosperity Point location and broad range of upscale housing. Buyers can choose among detached residences, villa-style homes and waterfront towers without leaving the peninsula.

Buyers who prefer a lower-rise setting directly overlooking a marina basin can compare Marina North Shore. Those residences provide an established condominium alternative along the North Yacht Basin.

Marina South Shore provides another low-rise waterfront alternative along the south marina basin, with spacious residences and marina-oriented views from selected units.

For buyers interested in a lagoon-oriented villa or townhome setting on Sunset Key itself, Topaz Cove provides a useful comparison with the high-rise towers and detached residences.

What Should Buyers Verify Before Purchasing on Sunset Key?

Sunset Key requires particularly property-specific due diligence because the peninsula contains several different ownership and association structures. Important items include:

  • The property's exact legal community and ownership structure
  • Every condominium, land-condominium, master and Section 22 assessment
  • Current budgets and financial statements
  • Reserve information and applicable reserve requirements
  • Recent association meeting minutes
  • Pending, proposed or approved special assessments
  • Current master insurance policies and deductibles
  • Property-specific flood information and elevation documentation
  • Responsibility for roofs, exterior walls, landscaping and other components
  • Pool ownership and maintenance responsibilities
  • Parking and garage rights
  • Current pet and leasing restrictions
  • The exact view and waterfront orientation
  • Legal rights associated with any private dock, pier or boat lift
  • Current marina availability if separate boat storage is required
  • Optional golf, fitness, racquet and club membership costs
  • Current litigation, bankruptcy or other material association proceedings applicable to the specific association
  • Permit history for material property renovations

Inspection findings should be evaluated with the appropriate licensed inspector, contractor, structural engineer or other qualified professional. Questions involving association obligations, condominium ownership, dock rights, contracts, title, litigation or other legal matters should be reviewed with a qualified Florida real estate attorney or other appropriate legal professional.

Is Sunset Key Worth Considering?

Sunset Key can be worth considering for buyers seeking a waterfront-oriented setting with a broader choice of housing than a single condominium complex can provide. Detached pool homes, spacious villa-style residences and luxury towers all occupy the same double-gated peninsula.

The location also places residents immediately within Burnt Store Marina's Charlotte Harbor boating environment while offering golf, dining, fitness and racquet opportunities nearby. Those facilities should be evaluated according to their current membership and access arrangements rather than assumed to be included with every residence.

The key to comparing Sunset Key properties is precision. Buyers should identify the exact association, waterfront orientation, included amenities, recurring costs, insurance responsibilities and current financial condition of the community attached to the residence they are considering.
