Delaire Country Club offers something increasingly difficult to find in South Florida: a small, established private-club community with 27 holes of golf and only 325 residences.
That exclusivity is reflected in its current real estate market.
As of September 10, a current market snapshot showed only three active homes for sale in Delaire, representing approximately 1.6 months of available inventory. During the preceding 12 months, 23 homes reportedly sold at a median price of approximately $2.379 million—an increase of 13% year over year.
However, the price of a Delaire home is only one component of the purchase. Buyers must also understand the community’s mandatory club membership and annual ownership expenses.
Delaire requires every property owner to participate in its Resident Opportunity membership.
The published 2025–26 resident fee schedule listed the following costs:
Based on those published figures, a new owner’s approximate first-year club obligation would be:
That calculation combines the $300,000 initial capital contribution with $48,314 in annual dues and assessments. It does not include the home’s purchase price, closing costs, property taxes, insurance or future property improvements.
The published contribution is described as nonrefundable.
These figures were published for the 2025–26 period and may change. Buyers should confirm all current fees, assessments, payment deadlines and membership requirements directly with Delaire before entering into a purchase contract.
According to Delaire’s official membership information, resident membership includes access to the club’s golf, racquet, wellness, dining and social amenities.
The club also highlights several benefits that can materially affect the true cost and convenience of membership:
These inclusions are important when comparing Delaire with clubs that may have lower advertised dues but impose additional food minimums, cart programs, trail fees or other recurring charges.
Delaire is positioned as a boutique private-club experience.
With only 325 residences, it is substantially smaller than many of the larger Boca Raton and Delray Beach country-club communities. Its size can create a more personal atmosphere while still providing three nine-hole golf courses and a complete club lifestyle.
Delaire also allows a limited number of nonresident memberships. However, every homeowner within the gates must hold the required resident membership.
The community sits on Military Trail near the Boca Raton–Delray Beach border, giving residents convenient access to both downtown Delray Beach and central Boca Raton.
Limited inventory can create competition, but buyers should not assume every Delaire property carries the same value.
Current and recent homes represent very different categories:
A lower-priced home may appear attractive until renovation expenses and mandatory membership costs are added. Conversely, a renovated or newly constructed residence may command a premium because it removes the uncertainty, cost and time involved in a major renovation.
The right comparison is rarely the community-wide median alone. Buyers should compare similar homes based on size, condition, location, lot, view and renovation quality.
Low inventory can benefit sellers, particularly those offering updated or turnkey homes.
However, scarcity does not eliminate the need for accurate pricing. Buyers are increasingly evaluating the complete financial commitment, including:
A home’s condition becomes especially important when the buyer must contribute approximately $300,000 to the club at closing under the published fee structure.
Proper presentation, strategic pricing and clear disclosure of the club’s costs can help qualified buyers understand the property’s complete value proposition.
Delaire’s combination of limited inventory, 27-hole golf and an intimate membership experience makes it one of the most distinctive private-club communities between Boca Raton and Delray Beach.
The headline is not simply that only three homes were recently available. The larger story is that buyers are competing for access to a boutique club while taking on a published first-year club commitment approaching $350,000.
That makes experienced representation especially important.
A buyer should understand the home, membership, annual expenses and potential renovation costs before making an offer. Sellers need an agent who can market the complete Delaire lifestyle—not merely the house.
Yes. Delaire’s official website states that all property owners must participate in its Resident Opportunity membership.
The published 2025–26 schedule listed a $300,000 nonrefundable initial capital contribution. Current pricing must be verified directly with the club.
The published schedule listed $42,314 in annual dues, including a $5,657 POA/HOA component, plus a $6,000 capital assessment. The published total was $48,314 annually.
The club’s official membership page states that there is no food-and-beverage minimum.
Delaire states that members may play its 27 holes without advance tee times.
The club reports 325 residences. Inventory changes daily, but one current market source showed only three active listings on September 10, 2026.
