Virgin rating

The hotel

Split between Harbourside and Beachside, there are 200 private, tropical acres to explore at the new golden era of the historic Boca Raton resort. Having undergone a massive transformation, this beautifully exclusive hotel is great for adding on to a Miami or Orlando trip, for that beachside relaxation and indulgence. One iconic resort, made up of 5 distinct hotels, the Baca Raton offers a variety of accommodations from beachfront suites to bungalows hidden away in the gardens. From poolside relaxation to thrilling waterfront adventure, there are a host of activities on offer, not least the ‘extraordinaty experiences’ such as private boat trips, sunset dining, or for golf enthusiasts, ‘The Course Is Yours’, which closes off the 18-hole championship course for you to enjoy exclusively, complete with branded apparel and sunset drinks to round off the day. Whilst there is a VIP feel to the resort, it’s great for any ages. The Banyan bunch kids club offers a fantastic activity schedule for the little ones, whilst the splash pad and 5-story water slides offer perfect respite for them on a hot day in the Sunshine state. Whilst they’re entertained, be sure to book in for a treatment at Spa Palerma, a 50,000sq ft secluded oasis offering indulgent experiences such as the Diamond Facial and Gemstone Body Ritual. However you choose to spend your day here, there are plenty of options when it comes to staying fed and hydrated, with 10 restaurants, bars ,and cafes serving up everything from grab and go items to fine dining formality. For a taste of the Mediterranean at Beach Club, Marisol and the lounge were recently unveiled, curated by lifestyle guru Colin Cowie.

In one word: WOW! Booked this trip last minute with very little advance research. In the end, I was absolutely blown away by everything The Boca Raton has to offer. Cannot wait to go back! Stayed at the Yacht Club with my adult daughter for an impromptu getaway. Hotel decor and design is absolutely stunning. Rooms are fantastic…and although this is likely an unusual observation…the closets were amazing - perfectly designed! In addition to the lovely accommodations, the customer service is out of this world! All the team members at the Yacht Club exceeded my expectations, particularly Alexa, Selena and Kari. (Writing this review a few months later, so hopefully I am recalling team member names correctly). Waiter Alan at Palm Court was wonderful! Flybridge perfect for breakfast; Principessa and Sadelle’s also great. Our favorite daily activity: the gorgeous spa! This cannot be missed! Overall, A+ trip and highly recommend! Read less
