Boca Raton Resort & Club Review

Addison Mizner built this Mediterranean-style hotel in 1926, and additions over time have created a sparkling, sprawling resort with many lodging options. Traditional rooms are small but warmly decorated; beachfront rooms are light and airy; yacht-club rooms are the most luxurious, with custom-designed Venetian-style canopy beds and carved gold-leaf lamps. The beach is accessible by shuttle. In addition to a golf course with a two-story clubhouse, there are three fitness centers, a tennis center that is home to the Evert Adult and Junior Academy, and the largest spa in Florida. It has 44 treatment rooms reserved for guests and offers treatments that take advantage of local flora. Michelea Larson, a Boston restaurateur, manages Cielo Restaurant which features coastal Mediterranean cuisine.

    We travel around the world, and have been lucky enough to stay in some posh resorts. This is by far the finest hotel we have stayed at in the entire southeastern portion of the US. Staff is very pleasant. Room was amazing, paid over $1,000 per night to stay in the Yacht Club Commodore Level Room: amazing views, bathtub, luxurious bedding, complimentary access to the amazing spa, and best of all, access to the complimentary VIP lounge, serving breakfast, lunch, and outstanding small presentations for dinner. These rooms are touted as the best at the hotel, and with all the unbelieveable amenities, I see why. Restaurants, beach, and pools are very nice too. All in all, this place is one of the more expensive properties we have visited, but we feel like everything was well worth it. Enjoy
