What Is It Like to Live in Boca Bay Colony, Boca Raton?

Boca Bay Colony sits on the west side of the Intracoastal Waterway in East Boca Raton, developed primarily in the late 1970s. Wide streets and sidewalks run throughout the neighborhood, giving it a walkable, residential character that holds up well against newer communities.

 

All homes are single-family, with living areas ranging from the mid 3,000s to over 4,000 square feet. The architecture reflects decades of ownership: original Mediterranean and Ranch residences sit alongside extensively renovated homes and newer custom builds that have replaced older structures since the early 2000s. Most waterfront lots have private docks along the deep-water canals.

 

The HOA fee is under $100 per month and covers maintenance of the common areas. There are no club fees or mandatory memberships.
