Hi Eileen, thanks for stopping by. The Boca Raton Resort has quite a history, as does

Boca Raton during the War years. Another one of the "old" Army barracks sold at auction

a few weeks ago.

Irene -  Years ago I stayed at the Boca Raton Resort Club and it was wonderful.  It's the only place I've ever been where the golf carts matched the hotel - pink!

Hi Lou, the Boca Raton Resort certainly has "Old World Charm" . It is such a unique hotel.

Addison Mizner knew what he was doing when he designed and built the hotel.

His style of architecture is still evident here in Boca Raton, as is his "Mizner Pink Color" a very

tropical color. Thanks for stopping by.

Hi Than and Laura, the Boca Raton Resort is one of a kind. We like pink here in Boca Raton,Fl.

Many of our buildings are the correct shade of "pink".

Than, the summer rates are less than the winter rates, come see us and enjoy the beach also.

Have a great day.

Hi John, the Boca Raton Resort has so much history to it.During WWII, the resort as much of Boca Raton

was converted for the War Effort as soldiers were trained in the new Radar Technologhy.

We don't think of Paradise being in the war, however they played a very important role.

Boca Raton had German Subs off thier coast only a few miles off shore.

Local residents were volunteer "sub watchers"for the military.
