The Boca Raton

Boca Raton's fabled favorite
VERIFIED LUXURY
The fabled The Boca Raton has enamored visitors for decades. Renowned local architect Addison Mizner, who led the development of Boca Raton and a number of other South Florida cities, was the mastermind behind the resort’s Mediterranean and Spanish Colonial Revival aesthetic and that distinctive bright-pink exterior.

The resort unfolds across 200 waterfront acres, featuring a spa, a championship golf course, a Racquet Club with 16 tennis courts and six pickleball courts, an expansive half-mile stretch of private beach, two pool clubs, a marina, more than 14 restaurants and lounges, an art gallery and five distinctive accommodation styles. Check out rooms in Cloister hotel, which dates to 1926, when it opened as a 100-room inn.

While The Boca Raton has evolved into a modern-day, ultra-luxurious resort, it still embraces Mizner’s original vision and, upon pulling up the grand drive, you’ll be enveloped by its illustrious past.
