Neighbourhood
Our neighborhood in south Florida is in the Boynton Beach city limits, where we can walk to our nearby shops, dining, movie theater, and shopping mall. With 50 homes in our waterfront neighborhood, we enjoy nature, birds, fishing, outdoor living, and the close proximity of retail and nature destinations.
A pleasant shaded walking trail is right across the street from the Oasis.
Our home "the Oasis" is on a freshwater canal on the 38-mile Chain of Lakes that connects Lake Osborne and Lake Ida and ultimately flows to the northern Everglades. The Oasis is a tropical environment right in the city, where we listen to the rustle of palm fronds, bamboo stalks, and the call of water birds from the canal.
3 miles from the beach and close to several Freedom Boat Club locations.
The Oasis is in Palm Beach county, Florida and is close to many desirable vacation destinations:
- 17 miles south of W. Palm Beach
- 37 miles north of Ft. Lauderdale
- 55 miles north of Miami
- 119 miles north of Key Largo
Guests to our area have enjoyed visiting Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami, and the Everglades. Some guests have even made day trips or overnight trips to the Florida Keys.

With a fast-growing population of about 85,000, Boynton Beach has access to many natural areas and several wetlands that offer premiere bird watching. We're also close to many vibrant nearby communities with vibrant arts, music, and nightlife.
What you will love in the neighborhood:
Our city of Boynton Beach has a lively downtown. We are proud of our newly constructed (2020) Boynton Beach Town Square. As the site of the Kinetic Art exhibit, Boynton Beach has a keen interest in public art and green space.
Boynton Beach is literally blooming and growing every day, but the city still retains a nice hometown feel.
- We are one town north of historic Delray Beach, home of the Delray Beach Tennis Center, the winner of 3 All American City Awards, and Best Main Street in Florida.
- We are close to the most popular accessible bird-watching destination in Palm Beach County: Wakodahatchee Wetlands Wildlife Refuge.
- We are two towns north of beautiful Boca Raton.
- We are also close to downtown West Palm Beach, which comes alive nightly at the waterfront, Rosemary Square, and Clematis Street.
- For the gamblers and music lovers, drive out to The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, just west of Fort Lauderdale.
There is so much to see and do here, from our famous beaches to the nightlife in Miami.
Nearest airport
You have good choices for air travel:
- 17 miles south of Palm Beach International (PBI) airport
- 37 miles north of Ft. Lauderdale International (FLL) airport

Getting around
As most of Florida dictates travel by car, we recommend a car for an ideal stay.
You can walk to several nearby grocery stores, restaurants, shopping areas, dining, movie theater, and shopping mall.
Boynton Beach is the ideal location to visit posh Palm Beach, trendy West Palm Beach, funky Lake Worth, hopping Delray Beach, and is close enough to make day trips to Ft. Lauderdale for a tour on the water taxi, the Florida Everglades National Park, or Miami Beach to gaze at hipsters.

I mostly travel with my mom Bit (88 years young!), although sometimes other adult friends are my traveling partners. We are nature enthusiasts, boaters, walkers, birdwatchers, and museum lovers. We like to travel to many of our planet's beautiful destinations, most notably natural destinations, nature preserves, and national parks in the United States. We also enjoy cities and urban adventures where a car isn't required. We are not particular about the size or extravagance of where we stay. We do prefer homes, not rental properties.
We are nonsmokers and good stewards.
In our leisure time, we tour backroads and byways, visit botanical gardens, and will go to any museum from tiny to epic.
Recently, we have been enjoying shorter exchanges (5-10 days) in the Southeast USA. Driving distance is what we're comfortable with these days. We have so much fun staying closer to home that we have happily completed 18 Florida exchanges since 2020 (some on another platform).
We are open to simultaneous, non-simultaneous, and hospitality exchanges. We are members of Freedom Boat Club and are especially interested in traveling to destinations where we can go boating in your port of call.
Do you want to come and see Boynton Beach? Consider an exchange with us. We love where we live and want to share it with others.
We like to meet fellow travelers.
Let us know if you are in the area, we would like to meet you and show you around and get you on a boat. Come see our garden.
