THE BOCA RATON FEATURED AS ONE OF THE COVER LOCATIONS FOR 2025 SPORTS ILLUSTRATED SWIMSUIT EDITION

The Boca Raton was selected as a host hotel and primary shoot location, an honor befitting its reputation as one of South Florida's most iconic resort destinations. The timing is especially meaningful as The Boca Raton debuted its all-new Beach Club hotel in January following an extensive $130 million redesign. Set along a half mile of private golden beach, Beach Club's seamless blend of indoor and outdoor spaces create a naturally stunning location where coastal elegance can be captured in every frame. Beach Club now features 210 fully renovated guest rooms and suites, some with expansive outdoor terraces, as well as new restaurants, three private pools, and luxury cabanas.

"It was an honor to collaborate with the Sports Illustrated team who captured our property's energy and spirit of eternal summer, permanently within its pages," said Daniel A. Hostettler, President & CEO of The Boca Raton. "The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue is globally recognized as a symbol of women's empowerment, diversity, and inner and outer beauty. It's especially poignant to join the brand's legacy during a milestone year as we celebrate an exciting new chapter in The Boca Raton's evolution."

At The Boca Raton, endless possibilities inspire the extraordinary. Guests embrace the art of relaxation and fun through five-star hospitality, stunning design, curated amenities and culinary creativity. New dining experiences at Beach Club include Marisol, serving fresh Mediterranean dishes crafted in partnership with award-winning culinarian Johnny Spero, and Onda, a sand-side restaurant which spotlights a new guest chef each winter season. Among the property's coastal offerings, Sorbetto is a limited-edition floating Fiat 500 that whisks guests along the Intracoastal, and the Cabana Club by Vilebrequin is a collection of vibrant pool cabanas designed in partnership with the St. Tropez swimwear brand. A five-minute Water Taxi across Lake Boca Raton is where guests have access to The Boca Raton's many other offerings, including golf, tennis, pickleball, wellness at Spa Palmera, and more.
