The Boca Raton has completed a $130 million reimagining of its Beach Club hotel, marking the final stage of a $375 million transformation of the historic South Florida resort. Miami-based design studio Urban Robot Associates led the redesign in collaboration with landscape architects EDSA. Together, they gave Palm Beach County’s only private beach resort a fresh, modern coastal identity.
The renovation tripled the room count to 210 guest rooms and suites. Among them, the Grand Suite and Lanai stand out for their private terraces that open directly onto the sand. The new lobby welcomes guests with a cocktail lounge and café, while oceanside event spaces provide elegant venues for gatherings and celebrations.
Inside, the design draws inspiration from the ocean. Calming tones, natural textures, and bright accents create a relaxed yet elevated atmosphere.
Dining and Design in Harmony
Dining takes center stage in this relaunch. Marisol, led by Michelin award-winning chef Johnny Spero, celebrates Mediterranean flavors and fresh seafood. Its indoor-outdoor setting invites guests to dine by the sea in an effortless mix of sophistication and ease.
Nearby, Onda sits directly on the beach. Each winter, it will host a rotation of guest chefs, starting with Adriano Venturini of Eden Roc Cap Cana. This evolving concept ensures every season feels new and inspired.
Wellness, Leisure, and the Art of Play
The Beach Club now offers enhanced fitness facilities, multiple pools, and wellness programs such as Sunset Yoga and Full Moon Yoga. Playful elements add charm: Vilebrequin cabanas reflect the spirit of the French Riviera, while Sorbetto, a Fiat 500 turned floating boat, offers whimsical Intracoastal adventures.
A Water Taxi connects guests to The Boca Raton’s Harborside amenities, including golf, tennis, pickleball, Spa Palmera, and a four-acre pool club. The seamless connection between the resort’s enclaves highlights a lifestyle that blends relaxation and vitality.
The Completion of a Grand Vision
Rooted in Miami’s creative energy, the Beach Club’s transformation closes a defining chapter in The Boca Raton’s story. The resort now embodies a new expression of South Florida luxury—modern, light-filled, and unmistakably refined.
