About Plantation Colony of Boca West
Plantation Colony of Boca West is a condominium community of 120 villa-style residences built during the 1980s, managed by its own condominium association. Rather than towers, it uses one and two-story buildings modeled on classic plantation homes, complete with generous overhangs that keep the porches cool.
The whole enclave wraps around the Palmer course, one of Boca West's four championship layouts, so fairway, lake and nature preserve views are common. Lush tropical planting fills the spaces in between, which is exactly what residents love most about living here.
HOA Fees and Boca West Membership
The monthly HOA fee has been reported at around $1,185. It covers common grounds, building insurance, exterior repairs, security and a private pool and sundeck for residents. Boca West Country Club membership is also mandatory, and recent listings cite a $150,000 joining fee plus annual social dues of about $22,593.
A further $10,000 capital contribution goes to the Boca West Master Association at purchase. Both the condominium association and the country club must approve every buyer, including a background check. Since golf and tennis memberships cost extra, we always walk buyers through the full annual figure before they make an offer.

Condos for Sale in Plantation Colony
Every residence in Plantation Colony follows the same basic recipe: two bedrooms, two bathrooms and roughly 1,250 to 1,270 sq. ft. of living space. Two primary-style suites sit at opposite ends of each plan, which suits couples who host family or share the home. Recent listings have ranged from around $350,000 for original units to $575,000 for fully renovated ones. That gap comes down almost entirely to condition, outlook and how much updating a previous owner has done.

Boca Raton Condos for Sale Without a Club Membership
Boca West's membership suits people who will use the golf, tennis and dining often. If that is not you, several communities we cover offer a similar lock-and-leave lifestyle without the joining fee. Our full directory of Boca Raton neighborhoods lists many more, but these three are the closest alternatives.
Patios Del Mar
Over in central Boca, Patios Del Mar also offers villa-style living, though each home wraps around its own walled courtyard and private pool. There is no club to join, and the monthly dues stay modest by comparison. It suits buyers who want privacy far more than they want a golf program.
Peninsula Village Greens
Up on the Delray Beach border, Peninsula Village Greens offers two-story townhomes built between 2006 and 2009. Residents share a community pool, a gym and a dog park, while the construction is newer and the monthly dues considerably lower. Consider it if you want more space and no mandatory membership.
Penthouse Towers
A completely different setting awaits east in Highland Beach. There, Penthouse Towers gives every residence an ocean outlook, trading fairways for the Atlantic with no country club requirement attached. It is well worth a look if you would rather walk on the sand each morning than tee off at eight.
Frequently Asked Questions About Plantation Colony of Boca West Real Estate
Are Plantation Colony Homes Condos or Villas?
Both, in a sense. Legally, Plantation Colony is a condominium, so you own your unit and share the grounds through the association. In practice, the buildings are low villas of one or two stories. Many feel like small private homes, with screened porches wrapping around them and gardens right outside.
What Does It Cost Each Year to Own in Plantation Colony?
Budget for the monthly HOA fee noted above, Boca West social dues of about $22,593 a year, and property taxes. Before closing, you will also pay the club joining fee and the master association contribution. Golf or tennis memberships raise the annual figure further, so choose your membership level carefully.
Which Golf Course Surrounds Plantation Colony?
The community sits alongside the Palmer course, one of four championship layouts at Boca West and designed by Arnold Palmer himself. As a result, many villas look straight onto fairways or lakes. Golf members can reach the first tee within a few minutes, all without ever leaving the club gates.
Is There a Pool Just for Plantation Colony Residents?
Yes, Plantation Colony has its own private pool and sundeck, maintained through the HOA, in addition to the large aquatic center at the clubhouse. Many residents prefer it on quieter afternoons. It sits among the gardens and draws only neighbors from within the enclave, so it rarely feels crowded at all.
How Long Does Buyer Approval Take?
You will need approval from both the Plantation Colony association and Boca West Country Club, including background checks and application fees. Timelines vary with the season, so it makes sense to submit paperwork as soon as your offer is accepted. Your agent should coordinate both applications together to avoid delays.
Is a Renovated Unit Worth the Higher Price?
Often, yes, because renovated villas with new kitchens, updated baths and replaced air conditioning have listed well above original units. On the other hand, buying an untouched villa and updating it yourself lets you choose every finish. Either way, compare the renovation cost against the price gap before you decide.
