About Palm Royal Condominium
Palm Royal is an active-adult condominium community of 111 residences on SE 13th Street in east Boca Raton, built in 1968. Eight low-rise buildings hold the units, rising two to four stories, and anything above two floors carries an elevator. Concrete masonry construction gives the place the solidity that older Boca buildings are known for.
Age has been kind here because owners have kept investing. Many residences now carry impact windows, rebuilt kitchens, updated bathrooms, and new flooring. The association completed its forty-year inspection and installed a new roof in 2025. Along with that, wiring has been brought up to date across the buildings.
What the Association Covers
Dues run between roughly $376 and $414 each month, which is remarkably low for a 33432 address. That figure carries basic cable, water, trash removal, building insurance, roof and exterior maintenance, common area upkeep, and pool service. Owners remain responsible for their own exterior doors, windows, and frames, so factor that into any renovation budget.
Condos for Sale in Palm Royal
Here is where Palm Royal separates itself from the rest of the market. Residences run from 704 to 1,120 square feet with one or two bedrooms, and recent asking prices have sat roughly between $175,000 and $250,000. Regarding value, nothing else this close to Mizner Park trades anywhere near that band.
The smaller plans hold one bedroom and one bath across 704 square feet. Larger layouts reach 1,120 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths. Every residence carries a screen-enclosed patio or balcony. Some units include a washer and dryer, while the community keeps shared laundry rooms for the rest.

What Do Palm Royal Dues Actually Cover?
Buyers coming from single-family homes often misjudge this line. Your monthly figure absorbs several costs that a house would hand you directly, which is part of why the community appeals to people downsizing.
| Cost | Covered by Dues | Covered by You |
|---|---|---|
| Basic cable and water | Included in the monthly figure | Electricity and any cable upgrade |
| Building insurance | Exterior structure and roof | Contents and interior HO-6 coverage |
| Roof and exterior walls | Association responsibility | Your own doors, windows, and frames |
| Common areas and pool | Maintenance and pool service | Nothing additional |
| Trash removal | Included | Nothing additional |
| Parking | One assigned space per residence | A second vehicle, arranged with the board |
Community Amenities at Palm Royal
Facilities here match the scale of the community rather than competing with the towers on the beach. Everything sits within the grounds, so residents reach it on foot in under a minute.
- Clubhouse used for community gatherings and association meetings
- Heated swimming pool with a surrounding patio and deck area
- Shuffleboard courts, a long-standing fixture of the community
- Picnic area with seating for residents and their guests
- Bike and jogging paths running through and around the grounds
- Shared laundry facilities for residences without their own machines
- Designated guest parking beyond the assigned resident spaces
Buying Rules Every Palm Royal Purchaser Should Know
These restrictions are the price of admission, and they explain much of why the entry cost stays low. Read them before you fall for a floor plan, because several are stricter than buyers expect.
| Rule | What It Means | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 55-plus community | At least one occupant must meet the age rule | Rules out younger buyers and most families |
| No pets | Service animals only, by association policy | The strictest term most buyers encounter here |
| Board interview | Every purchaser meets the association | Budget several weeks into your closing timeline |
| Application fee | $100 per single applicant or married couple | Modest against what Boca towers charge |
| Two-year hold | No leasing until you have owned two years | Removes Palm Royal from investor consideration |
| Six-month leases | One lease per year, six months maximum | Seasonal income only, once the hold expires |
| Corporate buyers | Not permitted under association rules | Purchases must sit in an individual name |
| Vehicle limits | No trucks, campers, trailers, boats, or motorcycles | Worth checking before you buy a second vehicle |
Living at Palm Royal
Daily life here runs at walking pace, which is exactly what draws people to it. Neighbors know each other, the clubhouse fills for association meetings and card games, and shuffleboard still gets played most afternoons. Being a smaller community of 111 residences rather than a tower of six hundred, faces become familiar quickly.
Practical errands sit within a few minutes of the front door. A Publix sits around the corner, the pharmacy and bank are on Federal Highway, and Boca Raton Regional Hospital is under two miles away. Whether you are downsizing from a house or buying a seasonal base, that concentration of the everyday matters more than square footage.
What to Check Before You Make an Offer
Older condominium buildings reward diligence, and this one carries a documented maintenance history worth reading closely. Interestingly, several items that worry buyers elsewhere have already been addressed at Palm Royal.
- Confirm the forty-year inspection paperwork and any remaining recommendations
- Ask whether past special assessments were settled by the seller or remain outstanding
- Check whether the specific residence carries impact glass or original windows
- Review the reserve study, since roof and exterior costs sit with the association
- Establish whether the unit holds its own washer and dryer connection
- Verify which floor and building, because only structures above two stories have elevators
- Read the age-restriction wording as it applies to every intended occupant

Communities Comparable to Palm Royal in Boca Raton
Buyers weighing Palm Royal usually shortlist a handful of other established east Boca condominiums. Each one trades something different on price, pets, or the age rule, so the comparison is worth making carefully.
Boca Bayou
Boca Bayou sits nearby on Royal Palm Way with waterfront frontage and a considerably larger amenity package than this. Prices there typically run well above the Palm Royal band, and the dues follow suit. Consider it when boat dockage and resort facilities matter more than keeping your monthly carrying cost down.
Boca Verde
Boca Verde offers another established east Boca option at accessible pricing, sitting close to both downtown and the beaches. Its rules differ from the Palm Royal terms, particularly around pets and leasing. Compare the two sets of association documents side by side before deciding which restrictions you can live with.
Atlantic Cloisters
Atlantic Cloisters puts residents considerably nearer the ocean, trading away the inland position that keeps Palm Royal affordable in the first place. Expect both higher prices and higher monthly dues in return for that proximity. It suits buyers whose priority is the walk to the sand rather than the number at closing.
Boca Barwood
Boca Barwood sits further west with more grounds, more parking, and generally larger floor plans than Palm Royal offers its owners. The drive to Mizner Park lengthens accordingly, and the beach moves further still. Look here when square footage and a quieter setting outrank walking distance to downtown Boca Raton.
Townsend Place
Townsend Place represents the opposite end of this very same neighborhood, offering secured parking, a concierge service, and downtown pricing to match all of it. Nothing about the two communities is comparable on cost at all. It answers the buyer who wants this same location with full-service building living attached.
Frequently Asked Questions About Palm Royal Condos for Sale
Is Palm Royal a 55-Plus Community?
Yes, Palm Royal operates as an active-adult community under a 55-plus age restriction. At least one occupant of each residence must satisfy that requirement, which shapes both who buys here and how the community feels day to day. Confirm the exact wording with the association before you write any offer.
Does Palm Royal Allow Pets?
No, and this rule catches more prospective buyers than any other term here. The association permits service animals only, with no exception made for small dogs or cats. Regarding enforcement, the policy sits in the governing documents rather than with the board, so it will not bend for an individual purchaser.
What Is the HOA Fee at Palm Royal?
Monthly dues fall roughly between $376 and $414 depending on the residence that you buy. That figure covers basic cable, water, trash, building insurance, roof and exterior maintenance, common areas, and pool service. Owners handle their own exterior doors, windows, and frames, along with interior insurance on the unit itself.
Can You Rent Out a Condo in Palm Royal?
Eventually, though certainly not immediately after your closing. Leasing becomes permitted only after two full years of ownership. Even then a residence may be leased just once per year, for a maximum term of six months. Corporate buyers are prohibited outright, which effectively removes the community from any investor consideration.
How Much Do Palm Royal Condos Cost?
Recent asking prices have run roughly between $175,000 and $250,000, with the one-bedroom plans sitting at the lower end of that band. Against other Boca Raton condos for sale, that range falls far below anything else within walking reach of Mizner Park. Renovation depth explains most of the spread rather than square footage alone.
When Was Palm Royal Built?
The community dates back to 1968, which places it among the earlier condominium developments anywhere in east Boca Raton. Age brings the advantage of solid concrete masonry construction alongside the obligations that come with an older building. The forty-year inspection is complete and a new roof went on during 2025.
What Amenities Does Palm Royal Offer?
Residents here share a clubhouse, a swimming pool with its surrounding patio, shuffleboard courts, a picnic area, and bike and jogging paths through the grounds. Shared laundry rooms serve those residences without their own machines. Everything sits inside the community itself, so nothing here requires getting into a car first.
How Do I Buy a Condo in Palm Royal?
Every purchaser applies to the association and sits for an interview before approval, so build several weeks into your timeline. The application fee runs $100 per single applicant or per married couple. A seasoned Boca Raton real estate agent knows how to assemble that file so it clears first time.
