Whether you’re headed to Florida to visit some family or soak up the warm southern sun, here are the best Airbnbs in Boca Raton no matter what kind of stay you’re after. 

I grew up going to Boca Raton frequently (yes, to visit my grandparents) and can attest to what a truly lovely place it is. It’s in a prime location, a quick drive from Miami, a hop and a skip from the Fort Lauderdale Airport, and just next to Delray Beach, making it an easy place to stay no matter where you’re visiting.

We’ve put together this list of the best Vacation Homes, VRBOs, and Airbnbs in Boca Raton so you can find the ultimate getaway for your Florida escape. From bustling Mizner Boulevard to the pristine beaches lining the shore, you’re in for a treat if you’re headed to this part of Florida.

Editor’s Note: Please note that Airbnb recently made changes to their program so in this article, we are including links to other options like VRBO or Booking.com which have much lower booking fees.
