Five boutique hotels make up the luxe Boca Raton Resort and Club located in South Florida’s pink-hued and Mediterranean-inspired coastal city of Boca Raton. And, each has a unique architectural style and gorgeous view of the resort, the marina, Intracoastal Waterway, or the Atlantic Ocean. The resort also has over a dozen restaurant and bar options for guests and members.
After an afternoon game of bocce on the garden lawn which may be enhanced with a new sodding, head to the stylish Mizner’s Monkey Bar, named in honor of the Resort & Club founder and creator of the “Palm Beach” architectural esthetic, Addison Mizner. The bar’s whimsical interior design reflects the legendary American resort architect’s well-known love of monkeys.
Available on weekends only, the Monkey Bar’s boozy Drunken Monkey Tea Service takes traditional High Tea into the modern cocktail culture. Served with small bites, each cocktail is inspired by the unique elements and flavor profiles of various teas, and mixed with infused spirits and house-crafted syrups by the Monkey Bar’s entertaining head bartender, Ken Braun.
