Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I rent out my unit at Costa Hollywood?
- Yes, short-term rental is the building's purpose. Sixteen listings say short-term rentals are allowed and seven say daily rentals are allowed. Owners can use the hotel rental program or manage rentals themselves. A City of Hollywood vacation rental license is required, and two listings say it does not transfer, so a buyer applies after closing.
- Can I lease a unit long term at Costa Hollywood?
- Two listings say tenancies of 180 days or more are not permitted under the condominium documents. That makes the building a poor fit for an investor who wants a year-round tenant. Read the declaration and rules yourself before you buy, and ask the association whether the limit has changed.
- What are the HOA fees at Costa Hollywood?
- Sixty-one listings state a monthly fee, from $430 to $1,922, with a median of $1,243. Most say the fee includes water, cable TV, internet, hot water, sewer and security, and many include building insurance. Nine listings say electricity is included. Ask for the current budget and any assessment history.
- What do units at Costa Hollywood sell for?
- Twenty-nine units closed in the past year, from $225,000 to $555,000, with a median of $390,000 and $600 a square foot. Studios of 366 square feet closed between $248,000 and $265,000, and one-bedrooms of about 650 to 820 square feet between $340,000 and $470,000.
- How long does it take to sell a unit at Costa Hollywood?
- The median sold unit took 130 days and closed at 96.4% of its final list price. Active listings averaged about 329 days on the market, and several have been listed for years. Pricing near recent closings for the same plan, with rental records ready, is the fastest route to a sale.
- How big are the units at Costa Hollywood?
- Units run from studios of about 340 to 366 square feet to two-bedroom units of about 1,110 square feet, with a median of 724 square feet. Most are one-bedroom, one-bath units. Many are sold furnished, which matters if you plan to rent the unit right after closing.
- Are pets allowed at Costa Hollywood?
- Fifty-two of 62 listings say pets are allowed, usually with restrictions, and seven mention a pet fee. A few say no pets, and some list breed limits. Because many units are rented to hotel guests, ask the association how pet rules apply to owners versus rental guests before you bring an animal.
- What schools serve Costa Hollywood?
- Current MLS listings name Hollywood Central Elementary, Olsen Middle and South Broward High for this address. Many owners here use their units part time and rent them the rest of the year, but if school assignment matters to you, confirm the zone for the address with Broward County Public Schools.
- How many homes are for sale in Costa Hollywood?
- There are 32 active listings for sale in Costa Hollywood right now, and these counts update from the MLS as homes come on the market and go under contract. The most expensive listing asks about 3 times the least expensive, so budgets vary widely within Costa Hollywood. Ask us to set up a search alert and you will see new Costa Hollywood listings the day they reach the market.
- What is the median home price in Costa Hollywood?
- The median list price in Costa Hollywood is $432,000, or roughly $685 per square foot. The median is the midpoint of what is currently listed, so about half of Costa Hollywood homes ask more and half ask less, within a broader range of $260,000 to $820,000. The median sits near the middle of that range, so Costa Hollywood inventory is spread fairly evenly rather than bunched at one end. We can pull recent comparable sales to price a specific home more precisely.
- What price range do homes in Costa Hollywood cover?
- Homes for sale in Costa Hollywood currently range from about $260,000 at the entry level to $820,000 at the top of the market. That spread reflects unit size, floor, and finish level across the condos and townhomes here, with the median list price around $432,000. The spread is moderate, so there is real choice here without the extremes some markets show. Tell us your budget and must-haves and we will send the Costa Hollywood listings that actually fit.
- How long do homes take to sell in Costa Hollywood?
- Homes in Costa Hollywood are averaging 329 days on market, measured from the day a listing goes live to the day it goes under contract. That is a slow pace, so sellers here should expect to price carefully and buyers often have time to compare before committing. Days on market in Costa Hollywood also shift with the season and with how a home is priced, so a sharply priced listing can still sell well ahead of the average.
- Is Costa Hollywood a gated community?
- Yes. Costa Hollywood is a gated community with controlled access at the entrance.
- Are there waterfront homes in Costa Hollywood?
- Yes. Costa Hollywood includes waterfront homes with canal, lake, or Intracoastal frontage.
About Costa Hollywood
Costa Hollywood, Hollywood, FL, is a waterfront community in Broward County with 32 homes for sale right now. Costa Hollywood is a gated, waterfront community in Hollywood, Broward County, Florida. Active listings are priced from $260,000 to $730,000. Homes were built between 2017 and 2018. Pure Equity lists homes in Costa Hollywood and represents buyers. Commission is negotiable, and what we are paid is agreed with you in writing before you commit to anything.
Costa Hollywood is a condominium hotel at 777 N Ocean Drive in Hollywood, in the 33019 zip code, steps from the Hollywood Broadwalk and the beach according to listing descriptions. Unit numbers begin with N or S, and listings date the N units to 2017 and the S units to 2018. Units are small by design, from studios of about 340 to 366 square feet up to two-bedroom units of about 1,110 square feet, and the median listing is 724 square feet. Many are sold furnished. The building is set up for owners who use the unit part of the year and rent it the rest, through the hotel's rental program or on their own.
Twenty-nine units closed between July 2025 and early October 2026, from $225,000 to $555,000. The median closing price was $390,000, or $600 a square foot, with sales from $416 to $785 a square foot. The median sale took 130 days and closed at 96.4% of the final list price. Only one unit was under contract at the time of writing. Small units carry high prices per square foot here, so square footage alone is a poor guide. A seller should compare sales of the same plan, floor and view.
Recent sales fall into clear bands. Studios of 366 square feet in the S units closed between $248,000 and $265,000. One-bedroom units of about 650 to 820 square feet closed between $340,000 and $470,000, with the top of that range for a 747 square foot unit on the fifth floor. Two-bedroom, one-bath units of 843 square feet closed at $398,925 and $500,000, and a 949 square foot two-bedroom closed at $430,000. View drives much of the rest. Twenty-three listings mention ocean views and 20 mention Intracoastal views, and listings with those views lead with them.
The supply of units for sale is heavy. At the time of writing there were 32 active listings against 29 closings over the past year, with asking prices from $260,000 to $820,000 and a median of $432,000. Active listings averaged about 329 days on the market, and several had been listed for well over three years. A seller who wants a sale in months rather than years should price near the closings for the same plan and floor, present rental income records if the unit has them, and make sure the furniture package is in good shape, since most buyers here plan to rent.
Every listing is a unit in the same building, and most listings show one parking space, with remarks describing complimentary valet parking. Many listings mention a balcony, and finishes in remarks include quartz countertops, Italian cabinetry and tile floors. Some units have a washer and dryer or hookups. Construction is concrete block. One listing describes its unit as being in the main building, on the fourth floor of five stories. Ask which section and floor a unit is on, since that affects the view and the noise from the street and the rooftop.
Association fees are high for the unit size, and they cover a lot. Sixty-one listings state a fee, from $430 to $1,922 a month, with a median of $1,243. Most say the fee includes water, cable TV, internet, hot water, sewer and security, and many include building insurance and structural maintenance. Nine listings say electricity is included. The amenities listed most often are the pool, fitness center and elevators, and remarks describe a rooftop infinity pool with a bar and lounge, a spa, a restaurant and 24-hour valet and concierge. Ask for the budget and any assessment history before you buy.
The rental rules define this building. Twenty-six listings say leasing is allowed, 16 say short-term rentals are allowed and seven say daily rentals are allowed. Owners can join the hotel rental program or manage rentals through their own company or platform. Two listings add important limits: a City of Hollywood vacation rental license is required and does not transfer with the sale, so a buyer applies after closing, and tenancies of 180 days or more are not permitted under the condominium documents. Confirm both with the association and the city before you write an offer.
Rental performance varies by unit, so ask for records rather than relying on marketing. One listing reports gross rents of more than 52 thousand dollars in 2024 on a one-bedroom, and another reports a booking rate of about 66% with dozens of verified reservations under outside management. Those figures come from sellers and depend on the unit's view, its furnishings, the manager and the season. Ask for twelve months of statements, the management agreement and its fees, and the association fee and taxes, then work out net income before you compare a unit here with one in a traditional condominium. A seller with clean records has an advantage over one without.
Pets are allowed on 52 of 62 listings, usually with restrictions, and seven listings mention a pet fee. Current MLS listings name Hollywood Central Elementary, Olsen Middle and South Broward High; confirm with Broward County Public Schools. Costa Hollywood fits a buyer who wants a beach vacation home that earns income when they are away, with hotel services in the building. It does not fit an investor who wants a long-term tenant, or a buyer who needs a large unit. Sellers should price to recent closings and lead with rental history.

Market & Value
Costa Hollywood market and home values
The Costa Hollywood real estate market reads best through the community's own recent activity, not a county-wide average. The median list price in Costa Hollywood is around $432,000, or roughly $685 per square foot. That sits about 11% above the Broward County median, which shows where Costa Hollywood lands in the local market. Recent asking prices have run from $260,000 to $820,000, so the home you choose within Costa Hollywood matters as much as the community average. Homes here have recently taken about 329 days to go under contract, a useful gauge of how quickly the Costa Hollywood market is moving. For pricing an offer or a listing, comparable sales within Costa Hollywood carry more weight than any headline number, since homes of the same type and size set the real range. Pure Equity can pull the active and recently sold homes in Costa Hollywood so you work from real numbers, not an estimate.
How It Compares
Costa Hollywood compared to nearby Hollywood communities
Costa Hollywood carries the lowest median of the 7 Hollywood communities compared here. Price per square foot is the fairer comparison between communities, because it adjusts for the fact that one neighborhood builds bigger homes than another. Days on market shows how quickly each one is actually selling.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hollywood Lakes | 40 | $1,275,000 | $613 | 135 |

Who It Suits
Is Costa Hollywood right for you?
It helps to know who Costa Hollywood tends to suit before you tour. Costa Hollywood appeals to boaters and buyers who want to be on the water, whether a canal, lake, or the Intracoastal. Waterfront homes carry their own insurance and maintenance considerations, so factor wind and flood coverage into the budget from the start. On price, Costa Hollywood lands in the middle of the market, a common fit for move-up buyers and full-time residents. Whether Costa Hollywood is right for you depends on how you plan to use the home, full time or seasonally, and Pure Equity can walk you through the tradeoffs before you commit.
Amenities & Lifestyle
Living in Costa Hollywood
Costa Hollywood runs like a beach hotel. Listings describe a rooftop with an infinity pool, sundeck, bar and lounge, plus a spa, a fitness center, a restaurant and 24-hour valet and concierge service. Many units come furnished and ready to rent. The Hollywood Broadwalk, the beach and its restaurants are a short walk away, according to listing descriptions, and downtown Hollywood is a few minutes by car. Listings market units to owners, including international buyers, who use them several times a year and rent them out the rest of the time. Expect hotel guests in the halls and at the pool. Listings describe sunset views from the rooftop lounge, and listings describe the Broadwalk's restaurants, bakery and shops as steps from the lobby.
Location
Costa Hollywood location
Costa Hollywood is at 777 N Ocean Drive in Hollywood, Broward County, with a 33019 zip code. Listing descriptions place it steps from Hollywood Beach and the Broadwalk, with restaurants across the street and downtown Hollywood a few minutes away. Units look east toward the ocean or west over the Intracoastal, and some list bay views. Parking is by valet, according to several listings. Current MLS listings name Hollywood Central Elementary, Olsen Middle and South Broward High for this address. Confirm school assignments with Broward County Public Schools before you rely on them.
Buying in Costa Hollywood
Buying a home in Costa Hollywood
The buying process in Costa Hollywood is the one used across Broward County. Getting a mortgage pre-approval first tells you your real budget and lets you move quickly when the right home comes up. Ask for the association's governing documents, budget, and reserve study before you write an offer. Association fees, any club or membership costs, and rules on rentals, pets, and leasing vary by community and materially affect the true cost of ownership. Property taxes factor into the monthly payment: the median annual property tax in Broward County is about $3,610. Florida's homestead exemption lowers the taxable value of a primary residence, and the Save Our Homes cap limits how fast that assessed value can rise from year to year. Budget for homeowners insurance as well. Rates in Florida reflect wind and flood exposure, so gather quotes early and check whether a specific address sits in a FEMA flood zone. Once you are under contract, plan for a home inspection and, if you are financing, a lender appraisal, both of which fall inside the inspection period. Working with an agent who knows Hollywood means you see new listings in Costa Hollywood the day they reach the market.
Selling in Costa Hollywood
Selling a home in Costa Hollywood
Selling a home in Costa Hollywood starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. List prices in Costa Hollywood currently center around $432,000, which is a starting reference for where a comparable home might be positioned. Homes that are decluttered, professionally photographed, and priced to recent comparable sales tend to draw the most interest in the first two weeks, when a listing is newest and gets the most views. Buyers in an association community also want to see the HOA or condo docs, the reserve study, and any pending or special assessments up front, so having those ready before you list avoids delays once you are under contract. Florida sellers usually pay the documentary stamp tax on the deed, currently $0.70 per $100 of the sale price in most counties, along with prorated property taxes and, by local custom in many areas, the owner's title insurance policy. We provide a no-obligation home valuation for Costa Hollywood owners in Hollywood, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
Thinking of Selling?

Online estimates miss what makes a home different. Tell us about yours and a licensed listing agent will send you a pricing opinion based on what has actually closed near you in Costa Hollywood.
Listing agents and seller representation in Costa Hollywood
Thinking about selling in Costa Hollywood? The agent you pick shapes two numbers: what your home closes for, and how long it takes. A listing agent, also called a seller's agent, prices the property against what has actually closed nearby. They also prepare and market it, screen the offers that arrive, and negotiate the terms rather than just the price.
Buyers currently hold leverage in Costa Hollywood, so pricing and presentation carry more weight than they would in a hot market. Homes that are prepared properly and priced against real closed sales still sell; the ones testing an optimistic number are the ones that sit. Homes here are averaging about 329 days from listing to accepted offer, so build that into your moving timeline.
Community-level detail matters most here. Association rules, what the fees cover, and which buildings sell fastest all affect your outcome. So does whether a buyer needs board approval before closing. None of it appears in a listing description. All of it decides whether a sale closes on time.
Pure Equity is a licensed Florida brokerage serving Costa Hollywood. Onias Derilus is the broker of record, Florida Real Estate Broker license BK3276618. A broker holds a higher license than an agent working under one. In practice that means the person advising you on price is also the one legally responsible for the file. That matters most when a deal gets complicated.

Realtors and real estate agents serving Costa Hollywood
People search for realtors, real estate agents, and real estate brokers more or less interchangeably. For most purposes the job title matters less than licensing and representation. Every licensed agent in Florida works under a broker. That broker carries final responsibility for the transaction.
What separates real estate professionals in Costa Hollywood is specificity. Can they answer questions about your street, not just your city? Ask what they have closed nearby and how they arrived at a price. A grounded answer cites particular recent sales. It also explains why those homes compare to yours. Vague reassurance is the warning sign.

Buyer's agents in Costa Hollywood
A buyer's agent represents the purchaser rather than the owner. They identify properties that actually fit and research what comparable homes sold for, not what they asked. They also advise on offer strategy. Finally, they manage inspection and financing deadlines through to closing.
Where buyers have room to negotiate, as they do in Costa Hollywood, the leverage is only worth something if you know where it exists and what to ask for. If you are buying and selling at the same time, which is common for people moving within Broward County, sequencing the two is its own skill: contingencies, timing, and what happens if one closing slips all need planning before either home goes on the market.
What representation costs
Real estate commissions are negotiable. No law, multiple listing service, or association sets them. If an agent tells you there is a standard rate, they are misinforming you. What you pay is agreed between you and the brokerage you hire. Get it in writing before the work begins.
Industry rules changed in 2024. Now a buyer and their agent must put compensation in a written buyer agreement before touring homes together. Sellers may still offer to contribute toward the buyer's side. However, that is negotiated rather than assumed. It is worth thinking through with your listing agent before you go live.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find a listing agent in Costa Hollywood?
Ask any listing agent you interview two questions. Which homes have they closed near Costa Hollywood, and how did they arrive at their suggested price? A grounded answer names recent closed sales. It also explains why those homes compare to yours. With a median around $432,000 here, the gap between realistic pricing guidance and optimistic guidance is real money. Verify the license too. Florida licenses are public and searchable through the state's DBPR portal. Pure Equity is a licensed brokerage serving Broward County. You can reach the broker directly at (561) 835-5400.
What does a seller's agent actually do?
A seller's agent prices the home against comparable closed sales. Before it goes live, they advise on repairs and presentation. Then they handle photography and marketing, and put the home in front of buyers and other agents. When offers arrive, they screen them and negotiate both price and terms. Terms matter as much as the number, because inspection windows, financing contingencies, and closing dates all affect whether an offer reaches the closing table.
How much does a real estate agent cost in Costa Hollywood?
Commissions are fully negotiable. No law or real estate board sets them. What you pay is whatever you and your brokerage agree to in writing before work begins. Since the 2024 rule changes, buyers and their agents must agree compensation in a written buyer agreement before touring homes. Any seller contribution toward the buyer's side is negotiated rather than automatic. Ask any agent you interview to put their fee in writing.
What is the difference between a realtor, a real estate agent, and a broker?
A real estate agent holds a state license to represent buyers and sellers. A broker holds a higher-level license and can operate a brokerage. That broker also carries final legal responsibility for the office's transactions. Realtor is a membership term for agents belonging to the National Association of Realtors. For someone buying or selling in Costa Hollywood, three practical questions matter. Is the person licensed, who do they represent in your transaction, and what can they actually tell you about your local market?
Do I need an agent to buy a home in Costa Hollywood?
You are not legally required to use one, but most buyers in Costa Hollywood do. A buyer's agent handles the parts that are easy to get wrong. That means identifying what comparable homes actually closed for, spotting condition or association issues early, and managing inspection and financing deadlines. Even in a slower market, negotiating room is only useful if you know where it exists.
Can one agent help me sell my current home and buy the next one?
Yes. For people moving within Broward County it is often the more practical route, because one person coordinates both timelines. Sequencing is the hard part. Should your purchase be contingent on your sale? How would you cover a gap if the closings do not line up? What happens if one side is delayed? Plan all of that before either home is listed, rather than after an offer arrives.
