Do Homes in Sandalfoot Cove Have HOA Fees?

Some do and most do not. Of the 53 Sandalfoot Cove homes that closed in the 12 months ending November 2, 2026, only 15 reported an association fee. The median reported fee was $320 per month, ranging from $45 to $1,408. The villa and townhouse sections carry fees. Most detached house sections reported none.

Where the fees actually are

The villas and townhouses in sections 9, 10 and 12 reported fees in the $280 to $487 range, with monthly figures of $320, $354, $356, $426 and $487 showing up repeatedly. One section 12 closing reported $1,408 per month, and an active section 12 townhouse is carrying $1,341. Those high figures look like all-inclusive townhouse billing rather than a typical house assessment, so confirm what is covered before you budget off either number.

Several detached houses in section 9 reported fees of just $45 per month. Two active section 4 houses reported $0. Section 1 manufactured homes reported $138 to $159.

Why 38 closings reported nothing

Much of Sandalfoot Cove is unincorporated-style platted house sections with no mandatory association, which is unusual in west Boca Raton and a real selling point for buyers who do not want an approval process or an assessment. That is a genuine cost difference: $320 per month is $3,840 a year, and over a seven-year hold that is close to $27,000.

What to verify before you offer

Three things. Ask for the association's name and whether membership is mandatory. Ask what the fee covers, because the townhouse figures above clearly include items the house fees do not. And ask about any pending special assessment, which never appears in a monthly fee figure.

If no-fee ownership is what you are after, this is one of the few higher-volume west Boca neighborhoods where it is the norm rather than the exception. See also these east Boca Raton neighborhoods with no HOA.
