3. 72 Holes of Championship Golf and Innovative Drive Suites

Boca West has had the influence of great golf legends including Arnold Palmer, Jim Fazio, and Pete Dye in its own backyards. These three golf greats architecturally designed four championship golf courses at Boca West. Strategically placed bunkers and rolling fairways that wind their way through the natural Florida landscape provide golfers of all skill levels with a fast and fun yet challenging golf experience. Boca West was also the first Club in North America to host a high-tech golf driving range. Mr. D’s 19th Hole and Drive Suites feature In-Range radar sensor technology, allowing Members to track the flight of the ball from the bay the ball was hit, and then relay the data back to the bay’s internet-based device. Add to that a four-acre short game area and driving range with 50 tees and comes as no surprise that Boca West is regarded as a golfing paradise.
