Club Leaders Forum, a national publication that ranks leading private clubs in different categories every three years, has picked Boca West as 2006’s number one residential country club in the United States. Over 6,000 club managers and residents are surveyd about what makes each facility special, covering tradition and heritage, quality of membership, amenities, governance, professional management and staff.
According to the CLF publisher, “Boca West is also at the apex of all clubs in size, revenues and complexity.”
Developed in 1971 by Arvida Corporation, the 1400-acre club features four championship courses, over 30 tennis courts, a sport pavilion and fitness center as well as other amenities. President and General Manager Jay DiPietro said, “I believe we have the finest staff of any club in the country,” with approximately 900 people employed.
In 1997 the club had a $40-million expansion and renovation program with more than 210,000 sq ft of additions and improvements and is currently embarking on another $36-million expansion that will cover reconstruction of two golf courses, updating the sports pavilion and fitness center, and building a new 62,000 sq ft spa.
