History
The Beach Club is the oceanfront wing of The Boca Raton, the storied 337-acre resort complex whose main campus began in 1926 as Addison Mizner's Ritz-Carlton Cloister Inn a mile inland on Lake Boca Raton. The beachfront parcel where the Beach Club stands is the site on which Mizner had originally intended to build his grand oceanfront hotel, the never-realized Castillo del Rey.
Arvida completed the $20 million Boca Beach Club here in 1980, replacing the aging Cabana Club and opening with 212 rooms and 142 oceanfront cabanas on a half-mile of private Atlantic beach. It carried Hilton's Waldorf Astoria branding alongside the main resort from 2009 until mid-2021, when the entire complex rebranded simply as The Boca Raton under MSD Partners ownership. A comprehensive gut renovation led by the Rockwell Group, completed in 2024, rebuilt the Beach Club's roughly 210 guest rooms and suites around floor-to-ceiling ocean views in a coastal-luxury palette.
The setting
Beach Club occupies the oceanfront at 900 South Ocean Boulevard, on the barrier-island side of Lake Boca Raton. The Boca Raton’s Tower and Yacht Club stand across the water at 501 East Camino Real; the resort connects its beach and harborside settings by boat.
