Boca del Mar blends housing variety with many, many nearby amenities
The planned community of Boca del Mar may not technically be a part of Boca Raton, but locals consider it a big part of what they call “Central Boca.” Francine Bisson, a Realtor with Re/Max Select Group who sells throughout Palm Beach County, says the community’s location is one of its main selling points. “It matters because not everyone wants to live on the beach, but people don’t necessarily want to live really far west either. This is right in the middle of everything,” she says. Not only do Boca del Mar’s residents have a huge variety of housing options to choose from, they have restaurants, houses of worship, a Jack Nicklaus designed golf course and proximity to some of the city’s best shopping centers, parks, country clubs and beaches.
Many Boca del Mar homes offer waterfront views and resort-style amenities.
Boca del Mar’s scenery is defined by golf courses and stunning waterfront views.

Housing ranges from high-rise condos to ranch-style homes
Condos are popular here. One-, two- or three-bedroom options are available in various complexes, including tall high rises and sprawling subdivisions. Most have clubhouses with community pools. Some are gated, adding extra security. Prices range from around $200,000 to $450,000. Single family homes are a mix of New Traditional and ranch-style, with anywhere from two to six bedrooms. They sit close together on neatly landscaped lawns that feature grass, palm trees and shrubs. Backyards sometimes contain in-ground pools. Driveways and garages are common. Prices for single-family homes typically start at $400,000 and go up to $1.3 million, with higher-priced homes often featuring recent renovations, upgraded appliances and a little more land. A small selection of two- and three-bedroom townhouses are also available, ranging from around $320,000 to around $800,000, with higher-priced units sporting fresh renovations and higher-end appliances. They often sit in complexes that provide access to community pools and clubhouses. Throughout Boca del Mar, HOA fees are common and vary by subdivision. Because hurricanes are possible in the area, nearly all houses and condos feature high impact windows and doors.

Golf, kayaking and biking are popular ways to stay active

Pinewood Park has baseball fields, picnic areas and a playground with separate play structures for younger and older kids. Golfers can join the private Via Mizner Golf & City Club off Boca Del Mar Drive, which has an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus course, or check out any of the additional clubs outside the neighborhood. Sugar Sand Park is just outside the neighborhood and offers walking paths, a playground and splashpad, outdoor fitness equipment, an outdoor rink for roller hockey and a carousel. Within the park is the Children’s Science Explorium, which has indoor activities for kids from five to 12 years old. Boca Raton’s many beaches, including the popular Red Reef Park, are within 10 miles. Some residents get exercise simply biking around Boca Raton. “There are more bike paths now that were not there 20 or 30 years ago. But in the last five years, [the city’s] made an effort to add more,” Bisson says. For indoor recreation, some residents can utilize their subdivisions’ fitness rooms, and others can join the Peter Blum Family YMCA of Boca Raton located on Palmetto Circle South.
