Boca Raton

Welcome to Boca Raton

Designer brands and award-winning restaurants abound in this captivating coastal community revered for its wealth and covetable waterfront mansions.

In the vibrant town of Boca Raton, every day is a vacation. Visitors and residents alike often refer to this affluent beach destination as a paradise, and with good reason. The town is flush with preeminent resorts and golf clubs, which serve as the central foundation for private and wealthy residential enclaves. Radiant beaches of powdery sand and cerulean waters beckon to the vista-hungry, along with the array of remarkable parks. 

The theme of jaw-dropping luxury continues into the residential real estate market of Boca Raton, which contains a plenitude of celeb-worthy mansions, waterfront estates, and opulent penthouses. It isn’t uncommon to find multimillion-dollar stunners with price tags upwards of 10 million, especially within the town’s exclusive country club communities or along the beach on stretches such as Ocean Drive.

In the palatial single-family homes and mansions set on the Intracoastal Waterway, homeowners can park their yachts in their private docks and access the ocean straight from their backyard. These lavish properties often come with other enviable amenities such as interior spas and large, in-ground pools. Prefer to live it up in a top-of-the-line, modern condo? Boca Raton features a bounty of seaside mid- and high-rises with penthouses boasting panoramic ocean views.

Local Lifestyle

Though Boca Raton residents frequently have access to premier resort amenities right within their own neighborhoods — or even in their own backyards — the vacation lifestyle isn’t limited to the residential. The town is positively bursting with retail, dining, and culturally enriching attractions that range from renowned art galleries to community events and concerts. 

Boca Raton is home to not just one, but two retail and entertainment meccas praised throughout all of South Florida. Close enough to the beach to smell the salt-scented breezes, the mixed-use development of Mizner Park is known for its high-end energy and blend of residential, entertainment, retail, and dining opportunities. Styled with Mediterranean architecture, this district is replete with upscale class. 

Fashionistas and brand hunters gravitate towards the treasure trove that is the Town Center at Boca Raton. More than 200 stores and restaurants are located at Town Center, whose designer brands include but aren’t limited to those like Cartier, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton. Along the town’s inviting boardwalk, an additional bevy of shopping awaits, this time with a more local flair. 

Boca Raton is also saturated with incredible restaurants, sprinkled throughout the city. A wonderful surplus of premier steakhouses exists in Boca Raton, each with its own distinctive personality. Abe & Louie’s Boca Raton, for instance, offers the classic American steakhouse experience and an ultra-luxe environment. 

Frequently winning the title of, “Best Steak,” among food magazines in Boca Raton, New York Prime complements its menu of USDA prime beef with massive seafood platters and an award-winning wine menu. Other must-try steakhouses and restaurants with rich, New American fare include Seasons 52, The Capital Grille, and Chops Lobster Bar. 

For a buzzy atmosphere and unbeatable flights of tequila, Rocco’s Tacos is a must-try. Authentic Mexican cuisine is paired with an extensive selection of more than 400 tequila varieties and inventive cocktails. True to its name, Farmer’s Table offers the best farm-to-table, seasonally inspired dishes in the area, served in a rustic-chic interior. Before or after a night of dining, attend a show at the Boca Black Box, known for its intimate performance space and rotation of popular comedians. 

Boca Raton’s arts, culture, and recreation offerings are just as abundant as the town’s plethora of retail and dining. Apart from sunny days spent at the beach, residents tend to spend their outdoor time at one of the many local parks, such as the 64-acre Red Reef Park that’s popular for swimming and snorkeling. 

Minutes inland from the beach, Sugar Sand Park is a sprawling 132-acre, city-run gem that houses nature trails, a performing-arts theater, and the Children’s Science Explorium. Other ways to enjoy nature include learning about conservation at the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center or visiting other recreation areas including Spanish River Park and South County Regional Park. 

Engaging with the arts is effortless in Boca Raton, thanks to the town’s Boca Raton Museum of Art, which also hosts an annual festival in Mizner Park. The Annual Boca Festival is held at Town Center, while the Festival of the Arts Boca at Mizner Park is a showcase of live performances from a variety of genres.

Boca Raton is home to a number of excellent schools. Though all of the schools in Boca Raton are notable and many residents move to the city for the schools specifically, a few top educational opportunities include:

• Saint Andrew’s School, PK & K-12, highly rated private, Episcopal boarding school ranked as the #1 best boarding high schools in the state
