Renting in South Palm Beach

South Palm Beach is a winter rental town. Furnished condominiums on the ocean side of South Ocean Boulevard, at Barclay, Concordia, Tuscany, Horizon East, Mayfair House, Palmsea and Dune Deck, lease for the season or month to month, and the lagoon side adds units at Southgate and Mayfair House with the beach across the road. The top of the market is 3550 South Ocean and the large corner residences, with the occasional townhouse at Sausalito on the Intracoastal. Annual leases are uncommon and most owners here do not accept pets, so tell us your months and your needs early.

Houses, Condos and Apartments

Rentals in South Palm Beach range from studio apartments to furnished estate homes. The market table on this page splits the median rent between houses and townhomes on one side and condos and apartments on the other, because the two markets price very differently, and the pages below narrow the search by home type, monthly rent, furnishing, pets and lease length.

How Renting With BreakThru Works

Tell us your budget, move-in date and must-haves, and a licensed rental agent builds a shortlist, schedules tours and helps you apply with a complete file. In most South Florida rentals the landlord pays the agent commission, so our help costs a renter nothing.

Own a Home in South Palm Beach?

A South Palm Beach landlord leases inside a condominium, so the building rules come first: the minimum lease term, how many leases a year are allowed, the tenant application and approval time, pets, parking and any waiting period for new owners. Most owners here choose a furnished winter lease, and some add a shorter summer stay where the rules allow, collecting the taxes Florida applies to leases of six months or less. We price your unit from live South Palm Beach rents and the leases that closed in the same building, and screen every tenant before a showing. Request a Rental Analysis before the season.

Renting in South Palm Beach: What to Know Before You Apply

Where renters live

Renters in South Palm Beach choose a side of South Ocean Boulevard and then a building. On the ocean side, furnished units at Barclay, Concordia, Tuscany of Palm Beach, Horizon East, Mayfair House, Palmsea and Dune Deck put the beach below the balcony, and the newest boutique building on the sand leases at the top of the market. On the lagoon side, units at Southgate and the Intracoastal building of Mayfair House look over the water toward the mainland, with deeded beach access across the road. A townhouse at Sausalito and the occasional house complete a market that is almost entirely condominiums.

Annual or seasonal

South Palm Beach rentals run on the winter calendar. Most units are furnished and lease for the season or month to month, from November or December into April, and the same tenants often return to the same building each year, so a winter tenant should be looking by late summer. A few owners offer a unit from September to December or for a short summer stay, and annual leases, often unfurnished, are uncommon. Ask each owner for the months available and the minimum term the building allows before you plan a season in South Palm Beach.

What to have ready

A South Palm Beach rental application goes to the owner and to the building, so have the file ready before you tour: photo identification, proof of income or assets, references and consent to credit and background checks, plus the association's own application and fee. Name every occupant, guest and vehicle, because buildings limit parking and register guests. Mention any pet at the start, since most units here do not accept one. Owners of winter rentals often live elsewhere and book the season early, so a complete packet sent with the offer saves days on a South Palm Beach lease.

Association approval

Every condominium rental in South Palm Beach needs the association's approval as well as the owner's. Each building runs its own application with its own fee, sets the minimum lease term and may limit how many times a unit is leased in a year, and some interview the tenant. Approval can take from a few days to a few weeks, longer in summer when boards are away, and the move in date follows it. Ask the owner for the building's rules and processing time before you commit to dates in South Palm Beach.

Deposits and move-in costs

Move in costs on a South Palm Beach rental run well above the first month's rent. A seasonal lease usually asks for much of the season in advance, a security deposit sized to the furnishings and the association's application fee, and a lease of six months or less carries the state and county taxes on short rentals on top of the rent. An annual lease asks for first and last month and a deposit. Florida law sets how a deposit is held and returned, and the lease should say whether electricity, internet and parking are included in a South Palm Beach unit.

South Palm Beach Rentals FAQ

How much is rent in South Palm Beach?
The median asking rent in South Palm Beach is $5,000 a month across 43 active rentals in BeachesMLS. Houses and townhomes ask a median $10,195 and condos and apartments $5,000. These figures update daily on this page.
Do I pay a fee to rent a home in South Palm Beach through BreakThru Realty?
In most South Florida rentals the landlord pays the agent commission, so working with a BreakThru rental agent costs a renter nothing. If a specific listing works differently, we tell you before you tour it.
What do I need to apply for a rental in South Palm Beach?
Most landlords ask for a government-issued photo ID, recent pay stubs or an offer letter showing income of roughly three times the monthly rent, recent bank statements, a credit report and rental references. Having these ready before you tour lets you apply the same day.
How long does rental approval take in South Palm Beach?
Landlord approval usually takes one to three business days. If the home is in a condo or HOA community, which is common in South Palm Beach, the association runs its own application and approval, and that can take two to four weeks in many buildings. We start the association paperwork the moment you are accepted.
Can I rent a pet-friendly home in South Palm Beach?
Yes. The pet-friendly page lists every current South Palm Beach rental whose listing says pets are allowed. Most still set limits, such as breed or size restrictions, a maximum number of pets and a pet fee or deposit, and condo associations often add rules of their own, so we confirm the policy for your pet before you apply.
Are there seasonal rentals in South Palm Beach?
Yes. Furnished homes and condos in South Palm Beach are let by the month or the season, with the strongest demand from January through April. Seasonal rents run higher than annual leases and the best winter rentals book months ahead, so start early; the seasonal and furnished pages show what is available now.
