The Boca Raton Cloister
Historic South Florida 200 acre resort comprised of five distinct hotels: Cloister, Yacht Club, Beach Club, Bungalows, and Tower.

5 distinct hotels within one resort, the lakefront adults-only Yacht Club, the iconic Cloister, the oceanfront Beach Club, the Bungalows, and the Tower. The full resort features golf, full-service Racquet Club, seven pools, private beach, children's club, ten drink & dining options, live entertainment, and 50,000 sq ft spa.

The story began in 1926, with a 100-room inn nestled in the brand-new city of Boca Raton. As it grew over the decades and became a South Florida institution, fans came to know the resort as simply The Boca Raton. Designed and brought to life by famed architect Addison Mizner, The Boca Raton redefined south Florida luxury hospitality and set the standard for years to come.

The Boca Raton is proud to collaborate with Colin Cowie on the Mediterranean offering, Marisol at Beach Club. The new dining and live entertainment destination, MB Supper Club, is inspired by classic South Florida nightlife and the legend of Addison Mizner’s pet monkey, Johnnie Brown. The Flamingo Grill, a fresh take on the American chophouse, is a collaboration with Major Food Group, as is the brunch and bagel destination, Sadelle’s. Additional new drink & dine options from The Boca Raton’s culinary team include Palm Court, Flybridge, and many more to come.

A dreamy oasis expertly designed to fit every kind of waterfront desire, Harborside Pool Club features three sparkling pools, luxe cabana service, fresh drink & dining offerings, two water slides, a lazy river, and spectacular events. Subsequent phases will introduce additional amenities, including a teen club and Floridian bistro.

The Boca Raton is ideally suited to host a range of iconic events, professional gatherings, rare moments, and remarkable experiences set against the resort’s captivating backdrop. From the most significant celebrations to intimate gatherings, events are brighter, bolder, and more memorable at The Boca Raton.

Indulge in the thoughtfully curated spa experiences and relax under the palms in the 50,000 sq ft, secluded wellness oasis - Spa Palmera.

CLOISTER: A South Florida icon since 1926 when it first opened as Ritz Carlton Cloister Inn, Cloister has been totally reimagined.

As the original hotel building, it features grand architecture, lush grounds and hidden gardens, and 294 guestrooms and suites. Cloister also serves as home to immersive experiences, such as rotating art collections and fashion brand collaborations. Just steps from the historic Resort Course, expansive Racquet Club, and the 54,000 sq ft wellness oasis, Spa Palmera—Cloister is the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable stay.
