The Neighborhood

About Las Palmas, Ponte Vedra Beach

A single-street enclave of 26 custom estate homes on Sawbill Palm Drive in Ponte Vedra Beach — non-gated, no CDD, and walkable to Ocean Palms Elementary.

  • Community Type:
    Luxury / Estate
  • Property Type:
    Single Family HomesCustom / Semi-Custom Homes

Krista Fracke’s Take

Las Palmas is 26 homes on one street, and most years one of them sells — maybe two. That's not a weakness, it's the whole thesis: custom-built estates walkable to Ocean Palms Elementary and Landrum, without gates, without amenity fees, without a district line. If you own here, every single sale resets your comp set — follow this page and you'll know the moment it happens. If you want in, tell me now; by the time a sign goes up, it's usually late.

Living Here

What It's Like to Live in Las Palmas

Day-to-day life in Las Palmas is genuinely convenient — the Publix at The Shoppes at Palm Valley is about a mile away, and the Brown Family YMCA is practically at the neighborhood's doorstep, roughly a quarter mile out. For dining, V Pizza + Julep, Barbara Jean's On The Water, and Valley Smoke Restaurant are all within about a mile, making weeknight dinners or weekend brunches easy without a long drive. Cornerstone Park is under a mile away for an afternoon walk, and TPC Sawgrass — home of THE PLAYERS Championship — is only about 2 miles from the neighborhood, which says something about the caliber of the surroundings I've come to appreciate over years of working in this corridor.

Location

Las Palmas Location & Commute

Las Palmas sits in the heart of Ponte Vedra Beach, with Mickler's Landing Beach roughly 2 miles away and the main Ponte Vedra Beach stretch about 5 miles out.

Mayo Clinic and Baptist Medical Center Beaches are both within roughly 8 miles, and Jacksonville International Airport is about 30 miles away, typically a 45-minute drive depending on traffic.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions about Las Palmas

Are there HOA or CDD fees in Las Palmas?

Las Palmas is a neighborhood in Ponte Vedra Beach, and like many established communities in St. Johns County, it may carry HOA or CDD obligations. The specifics — fee amounts, what they cover, and whether a CDD applies — vary and should be verified for any individual property. I always recommend buyers review the full fee disclosure before making an offer so there are no surprises in the monthly cost picture.

How close is Las Palmas to the beach?

Mickler's Landing Beach is about 2 miles from Las Palmas, making it the closest public beach access point. The broader Ponte Vedra Beach stretch is roughly 5 miles away, and Jacksonville Beach is about 8 miles north. In practice, a quick beach run is genuinely quick from this neighborhood.

What schools serve Las Palmas in Ponte Vedra Beach?

Ponte Vedra High School is the assigned high school for Las Palmas, and the neighborhood falls within the St. Johns County School District. Elementary and middle school assignments are address-specific, so I recommend checking directly with the district to confirm current zoning for any home you're considering.

Is this the same Las Palmas as the one in St. Augustine?

No — and the shared name genuinely confuses portals, lenders, and insurance quotes. This page covers Las Palmas in Ponte Vedra Beach: 26 custom estate homes on Sawbill Palm Drive off Palm Valley Road, built 2004–2007, walkable to Ocean Palms Elementary and Landrum Middle. The other Las Palmas is a condominium community at World Golf Village, twenty-five miles south — different county tax profile, different insurance market, different everything. If a quote or a search result looks wrong for this neighborhood, the name collision is usually why. I make sure the right Las Palmas is on every document.

How much is my home in Las Palmas worth?

In a 26-home enclave, the honest answer is: whatever the last sale or two says, adjusted for your specific home — which is why automated estimates are at their worst here and why this page matters most to the people who already own on Sawbill Palm. Every new listing and MLS-recorded sale in Las Palmas appears here as it happens; follow the neighborhood and a single sale never catches you uninformed. There's deliberately no instant estimate on this site — when you want the real number, I prepare it personally against the actual trades.

What does it cost to sell a home in Las Palmas?

Fewer lines than most Ponte Vedra communities, which is part of the enclave's appeal: the commission you and I agree on, Florida's documentary stamp tax on the deed, title and closing charges per local custom, and the association's estoppel letter — no CDD, no club transfer, no amenity buy-ins. In a street where one or two homes trade a year, pricing is the entire game, and the comp set is small enough that I walk it personally before we set a number. The seller's net sheet here is short; getting the price right is everything.
