Neighborhood Guides: St. Pete Beach and Nearby Waterfront Areas
Updated October 2026. Every neighborhood below has two pages: a guide for buyers (where it is, the homes, water access, flood and rental rules) and a home value page for sellers. Pick the area you are looking at.
We are John and Nicole Kavaliauskas, licensed Florida Realtors with LoKation Real Estate. We live and work on the Pinellas Gulf beaches.

Along the Pinellas Bayway
These communities sit between St. Pete Beach and the mainland or south toward Fort De Soto. Isla del Sol and Bayway Isles are in the City of St. Petersburg, so city rules there differ from St. Pete Beach; each guide explains which rules apply.

Which St. Pete Beach neighborhoods do you cover?
Pass-a-Grille, Don CeSar Place, Vina del Mar, Belle Vista, Boca Ciega Isle, Bahia Shores and Three Palms Point. Each has a buyer guide and a home value page.
Is it Belle Vista or Bella Vista?
Subdivision and listing records use Belle Vista. Bella Vista is a common alternate spelling for the same St. Pete Beach neighborhood.
Are Isla del Sol and Bayway Isles part of St. Pete Beach?
No. City of St. Petersburg sources treat both as part of St. Petersburg, so St. Petersburg flood, permit and rental rules apply. Confirm the jurisdiction on the Property Appraiser record for a specific parcel.
How do I find out what my home is worth?
Open the home value page for your neighborhood, then request a free written valuation. We prepare it by hand from sold, pending, active and expired listings that match your home.
