Condominiums in buildings like The Residences at Lost Key typically list between $400,000 and $650,000 and run from roughly 1,100 to 1,800 square feet.

Neighborhoods Within Lost Key
The Residences at Lost Key
This condominium section appeals to buyers who want low-maintenance ownership with direct access to the clubhouse and pool amenities. Units face either the golf course or interior lagoon views, and the buildings are elevated to meet Perdido Key flood zone standards. Ownership here includes access to the private beach club on Gulf Beach Highway, which provides deeded Gulf of Mexico beach access without the premium of a beachfront address.
Single-Family Golf Villas
The detached villa section sits along the fairways of the golf course and gives homeowners a more residential feel inside a gated setting. Lot sizes typically run 6,000 to 9,000 square feet, with homes featuring screened lanais, two-car garages, and open floor plans oriented toward the course. These properties are located off Perdido Key Drive, roughly 10 miles west of Pensacola and about 6 miles from the Florida-Alabama state line.
Day-to-Day Life at Lost Key
Residents at Lost Key spend most of their time within the community or along the immediate Perdido Key corridor. The private beach club gives owners a quieter alternative to the public beaches at Perdido Key State Park, which is less than two miles east. Johnson Beach Road provides direct access to Gulf Islands National Seashore for kayaking and trail use. Grocery shopping and dining bring most residents to nearby Pensacola or Orange Beach, Alabama, each roughly a 15 to 20 minute drive. Escambia County schools serve the area, with Escambia High School as the designated public high school for the Key. The community's self-contained amenities, including the golf course, fitness center, and tennis courts, make it a realistic full-time residence, not just a vacation address.
