Best Areas to Live in Ponte Vedra Beach
Ponte Vedra Beach's best-known neighborhoods are almost all organized around golf and gated-community amenities, with price and privacy scaling together -- there isn't a clearly "budget" pocket within the community the way there is in Orange Park or Fort Walton Beach.

Learn moreMarsh Landing
A gated, Intracoastal-adjacent community set among marshes, lagoons, and mature oaks, anchored by Marsh Landing Country Club (golf, tennis, fitness, dining). Homes range from spacious single-family residences to large estates, and properties with direct Intracoastal or water views commonly exceed $2 million.
Sawgrass Country Club
One of the area's original luxury communities, built around the TPC Sawgrass Stadium Course between A1A and Ponte Vedra Boulevard. Housing stock ranges from condominiums up to single-family estate homes, giving it a wider price range than some of the newer gated communities.
The Plantation at Ponte Vedra Beach
A private, equity-membership oceanfront community of roughly 570 residences just south of the Sawgrass-area communities, built around a golf course with lakes, canals, and mature hardwood tree cover -- among the more exclusive addresses in the area.
Old Ponte Vedra / Near-Beach Streets
The established, non-gated area closer to the beach and A1A carries a comparatively wider price range ($700,000-$1.5 million for single-family homes per local brokerages) than the named gated communities, making it the relative entry point for buyers who still want to be in Ponte Vedra Beach proper without a country-club membership requirement.
Key takeaways
- Marsh Landing and The Plantation at Ponte Vedra Beach are the highest-end, most exclusive gated/golf communities, with waterfront properties commonly exceeding $2 million.
- Sawgrass Country Club offers a wider price range (condos through estates) built around the TPC Sawgrass Stadium Course itself.
- Non-gated, established near-beach streets ($700K-$1.5M) are the relative affordability entry point within Ponte Vedra Beach -- still expensive by national standards, but the lower end of what this market offers.
