What it's like to live in Boca Bath & Tennis
Park-like, gated Central Boca living built around space and community.
Boca Bath & Tennis feels like a private park tucked into the heart of Boca Raton. The entire community is built around green space — open fields, shaded walking areas, lakes, and eight neighborhood parks spread across 163 acres.
One of the first things visitors notice is the mature, natural landscaping: big oaks, ficus, palms, and wide grassy areas that create a calm, established environment. Many residents live here full-time, which keeps the community stable and family-oriented.
Location is a major selling point. Being right off Military Trail puts you minutes from Saint Andrew’s, Pine Crest, Saint John Paul II, Spanish River Christian, Lynn University, Town Center Mall, I-95, Whole Foods, restaurants, and the beach via Spanish River Boulevard.
