The Pool at The Boca Raton

"This landmark resort is a sprawling 350-acre collection of oddly matched buildings: the original Cloister (which is undergoing a long, drawn out renovation with some of the old rooms still available at lesser prices and are only a decent option if you don't mind being the only one on an entire floor or you've ever wondered what mustiness smelled like back in 1927); the drab pink 27-story Tower; the renovated Beach Club and Pool Oasis, accessible by water shuttle or bus and featuring three redesigned swimming pools, oceanfront bar, beach access, cabana, modern rooms, and sunning terraces; and Yacht Club, a Venetian-style wing of 112 luxury rooms and suites"

"There are water sports on the beach, seven pools, thirteen restaurants, and nine onsite shops"

"Nine dining spots, several lounges, two golf courses, six pools"

"Add in the five pools, 10 restaurants and priceless historic vibe and you'll find you can stay a week and never leave the grounds"

"Apart from offering an excellent location, a private pool and glamorous cabanas, these accommodations run the gamut from average-sized standard rooms to suites with ocean-view terraces and poolside Lanai rooms; the lanais make them visually larger"

"The pool, set next to the cafe, lies in a pebbled deck, also overlooking the waterway and offers bar service and light fare throughout the day"
