            <title>Luxurious Boca Raton Country Clubs</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
The country clubs in Boca Raton offer an unparalleled level of seclusion, comfort and luxury that you just won't find in a non-gated community. If you're looking for a strong sense of belonging, a host of helping hands to make your life enjoyable and fun, and well-kept landscaping that makes you smile everytime you walk outside, then one of these 4 country clubs will make an excellent place to search for your next residence.


Broken Sound Country Club


Enjoy over 1,000 beautiful acres of lush landscape in this exclusive club community. Split into 27 villages, Broken Sound offers its tenants first class single family residences, and is tailored to a peaceful and relaxing lifestyle; it's well suited for both families and retirees. You'll enjoy an assortment of amenities, including Broken Sound's well-groomed golf courses, tennis courts and a fitness center. There are always classes available in the fitness center, as well as the normal spa treatments. Housing ranges from $300K to about $2M, in addition to club membership fees.


Boca Grove Country Club


With only 443 residences inside the gates of this luxury community, Boca Grove is notable for its friendly atmosphere and meticulously kept landscaping, in addition to some of the best waterfront views in Boca Raton. Enjoy premier cuisine and a host of friendly people; the club markets itself as an open community for residents of any age and walk, and goes the extra mile to make sure you feel at ease. Many of the residents choose Boca Grove because it's optimal location, while keeping an easy commute by being close to the Florida Turnpike. It's easy to find and easy to get to, but it still feels secluded and private when you're inside the gates.


Woodfield Country Club


Now we get to touch on one of the most lush country clubs in Boca Raton – Woodfield Country Club. Divided into 20 subdivisions within the club's 830 acres, you'll find homes ranging from around $300K all the way up to $8 Million.


What sets Woodfield Country Club apart? Probably the 27 pristine private lakes, the 24/7 manned security gate, and the 12,000 square foot heated swimming pool. Of course, there's a fitness center, an 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, restaurants, a salon, a spa, therapy services, and a social center (they call it The Clubhouse, and it's huge), plus a host of other amenities. Thanks to the wide price range, families and individuals of every walk can enjoy a seasonal or year round home in Woodfield.


Polo Club


For the tennis-addict who wants to perfect their sport in style, the Polo Club is the place to go. Regarded as one of the top privately owned tennis facilities in the entire world, this tropical country club has both condos and custom housing for you to choose from, and it's all surrounded by 1,100 acres of tropical Floridian landscape.


The Polo Club is the second largest country club in the USA, which naturally means that you have a wide range of options to choose from when it comes to price and living environment. You can find condos, townhomes, villas, custom estates and more inside the secure gates of Polo Club. There's lots of kid's activities available, so it's a perfect place for a family to seasonally vacation in.


Any one of these developmentss would make a great starting point for your real-estate research, and I'm sure once you browse through some listings you'll find the direction you want to go.

            <title>Community of the Week: Gleneagles Country Club</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Gleneagles Country Club is located in Delray Beach, between Palm Beach and Boca Raton.  It is perfectly positioned to take advantage of all the amenities that both cities have to offer.  Gleneagles is situated on 400 lush acres, and there are lots of lakes and green belts to add to the visual appeal of the community. There are 1082 residences in the community: 220 single family fairway homes and 826 garden apartments.  All the buildings have a Mediterranean design, which adds to the overall ambiance of the neighborhoods.  Gleneagles is a gated community, which provides extra security for its residents. Security services are provided twenty-four hours a day.


The eighteen-hole Karl Litten Golf Course and its clubhouse are the centerpieces of the community. The clubhouse is 65,000 square feet and has an Olympic sized swimming pool attached. Every need of the golfer is serviced: there’s a pro shop, full time staff, classes, private lessons and league play.  The freestanding fitness center looks like the equipment room on the “Biggest Loser.” It’s full of top rated equipment.  There’s a full time staff and personal training is available. Classes like aerobics and yoga are offered.  There are also “aquacise” classes in the Olympic size pool.   


Tennis courts are also available to members and a full time tennis staff is “ready and willing” to serve patrons.  Tournaments and league play are organized for the enjoyment of the players.  In addition to all of these facilities in the main club area, there are also seven satellite clubhouses, each with its own pool, spa and fitness classes.


Great food can always be found at Gleneagles.  The Legends Dining Room in the main clubhouse over looks the golf course.  Its kitchen creates gourmet meals for those who desire a fine dining experience.  Adjoining the Legends Dining Room is the Waterfall Room.  It can be reserved for private parties and functions.  Out by the pool is the Grille Room.  It offers light lunches and casual evening dining.  The Legend’s Lounge is where friends meet to chat or have drinks with others.  Entertainment is offered and usually focuses on singers, comedians and musicians. 


The community regularly sponsors a wide variety of activities and events.  There are holiday celebrations, lectures and theme parties, concerts and dinner shows.  Various games are offered including Bridge groups.  The “On the Road” program is always well attended.  Members are invited to join groups that visit local casinos, comedy clubs, museums, and other places of interest in South Florida.  As the younger generation would say, “Gleneagles rules!”

            <title>Featured Golf Club of the Month: Royal Palm Yacht and Country Club</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Royal Palm Yacht and Country Club is one of the most exclusive golf clubs in Boca Raton.  It’s a private club, and anyone wishing to apply for membership must be invited to do so.  This country club has maintained a tradition of elegance for over a half-century.  Part of its mission statement is that it endeavors to provide fun for the entire family.  Royal Palm features a Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course.  The elegant clubhouse offers a high-end level of services to all members and their guests.  Members are greeted by name, and the conscientious staff remembers their individual preferences. Both golf and social memberships are available with a capital contribution required at both levels of membership.  A junior membership is also available.  Junior members are responsible for only half the typical capital requirement. 


In addition to golf, the club offers a 7,000-square-foot fitness center.  The equipment is first rate and several fitness classes like Pilates and yoga are also available. Members of the fitness staff are on duty seven days a week and members have twenty-four hours a day access to the facility.  For those who require a regular “pamper time,” there are massage therapists, skin care therapists, and steam rooms available. 


Six tennis courts are located next to the fitness center.  There are men and women’s leagues and tennis clinics for kids after school and on the weekends.  Tennis aficionados can also reserve court time by calling a member of the tennis staff. For those traditionalists who like something a little different, here’s also a croquet pavilion with two championship greenswards. That perennial favorite, duplicate bridge, is available every Tuesday.  The club also sponsors tournaments and lessons.


As if all of these facilities weren’t enough, the club also has its own marina on the bay.  There’s a clubhouse for members with a nautical flair.  There’s also a pool.  Access to the ocean is only minutes away.  Many members dock their yachts at this marina.  There are hookups for phones, water and electricity.  For the yacht owners’ convenience, there’s a full time dock master and concierge services available seven days per week.  The yacht club regularly sponsors regattas, a fishing derby and organized excursions. Members have reciprocal privileges at thirty-five other yacht clubs throughout Florida.


Several dining options are available at both the golf club and the yacht club.  In addition, numerous family oriented activities are offered, like parties, carnivals and “dive-in” movies.  The facilities, amenities and activities it offers are some of the best in Florida.

            <title>Attention:  Many Beautiful Condos for Sale in Boca Raton!</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Boca Raton boasts some of the most beautiful Florida condos on the market today. There are condos offered at various price ranges, and there are styles available to please even the most discriminating buyer.  Many can even be purchased furnished, if that is a consideration. And of course, to many people, location is everything. Some may desire a waterfront condo, others a condo that is close to shopping, and still others a condo located in a country club setting so that golf is readily available. Boca Raton offers all three types of settings.


A representative waterfront condo is the Statford Arms.  One of its most appealing features is a wrap-around porch that provides views of both the Intercostal Waterway and the ocean.  Ownership at this condo comes with many amenities including a pool, doorman, tennis courts, a fully equipped gym, and a community room.  The condos in this building are priced at $500,000 and up.  It truly is Florida living at its best!


Boca Pointe Country Club provides both a golf course setting and it’s close to shopping. It is a multi-gated, planned development. The community encompasses 1000 lush acres with approximately 3,400 homes. It features condos, town homes, patio homes and single-family detached homes.  The centerpiece of the community is the clubhouse and the eighteen-hole Jack Nicklaus championship golf course. In addition to golf memberships, social and other types of memberships are available. Five dining options are offered to members.  The main dining area is elegant and features an extensive fine-wine list.  Dinner in the Main Dining room is a multi-course affair of gourmet level dishes.  The Grand Café is a little less fancy, but it too offers an extensive list of beverages and foods.  Particularly popular is the Sunday Brunch, which includes homemade French toast, eggs Benedict, and various meats, breads and pastries. Lunch at the café includes a salad bar and carving stations.  Homemade soups and sandwiches are also available.  For dinner, there are a variety of selections including steak, fish, pasta, chicken, salads, appetizers and desserts.


Tennis is also emphasized in this community.  There is a Tennis Center with its own café, a pro shop, and sixteen courts (five of them lighted).  USPTA pro instruction is available and there is both individual and league play.  An Olympic-size swimming pool completes the picture.  The café is constructed so as to permit dining either poolside or courtside.  


Most of the condos in this community are priced between $150,000 and $300,000.  It seems like a very reasonable price when one considers all the amenities that are available with ownership in Boca Pointe Country Club.

The community boasts an elaborate 38,000 square foot fitness center.  Called the Cascades, the center features the latest in fitness equipment as well as a spa, sauna, salon, and café.  There’s also a youth activity center for teens.  The center includes pool tables and video games. Dances are frequently held.  Naturally there’s a luxurious pool area.  Aquatics classes for different age groups are offered at the pool throughout the year. There’s also a private tennis club on the premises.  It sponsors clinics, leagues and events for all age groups.  The tennis staff is composed of thirteen tennis professionals. 


The heart of the community is the country club.  It’s here that people gather to socialize, eat, and participate in the numerous activities, which are offered daily.  The average age of a member is forty-nine years old.  The club, however, endeavors to provide activities that will appeal to all age groups. It’s impossible to list all of the available activities, but a representative list would include: movie night, book review groups, Sunday football parties, documentaries, seminars, and cards.  Members are encouraged to recommend activities that will suit their interests. There are also five restaurants on the premises.  The main clubhouse dining room offers the most formal venue.  The other four restaurants serve less elegant, but still delicious, fare.  For example, many members of the community choose to meet neighbors at the club’s O Bar for complimentary hors d’oeuvres, drinks and good conversation.


 In early November, the “Season Kick-Off Party” traditionally takes place.  It’s a two-day affair that provides activities for the whole family.  There’s even a carnival and an evening concert included in the festivities. The community center also offers afterschool activities for the youngsters in the community.  The included activities are things like ballet, art, science and cooking classes.  There’s also a community field where the young and the young at heart can play games like flag football and volleyball.  The community also sends out a newsletter, which includes an invitation to join groups attending concerts and sporting events in the surrounding area.


As can be seen, Woodfield Country Club is truly a “full service “ community for the whole family!
