Adventure and activity are always on the horizon in Bonaventure
Tucked beside the Everglades, the luxurious Weston community of Bonaventure combines tropical flair with unmatched amenities, creating a haven of recreation around the central — and private — Bonaventure Town Center Club. “There’s a great sense of community here,” says Melissa Hoff Roth, a broker associate with the Hoff Group at Compass and a resident of Weston since she was 9. “Bonaventure is unique in how it's set up, and there’s a lot of pride in that.” The community was originally constructed in the 1970s, although the newest housing addition, Botaniko, was only completed in 2022. Bonaventure has a distinct resort-like feel with hotels, spas and a golf club, but it also highlights convenience with nearby highways, grocery stores and restaurants. It may be less than 20 miles from Fort Lauderdale, but Bonaventure feels like a world of its own.
Bonaventure Town Center Club is a hub of activity
The contemporary playscape at Bonaventure Park attracts adventurous kids hoping to scale its geometric tower. Golfers tee off at the Bonaventure Golf Club, a public course with a nationally famous waterfall on its third hole. But for many residents, the biggest perk of living in Bonaventure is gaining access to the Bonaventure Town Center Club, a massive complex fully outfitted with pools, courts, gyms, shuffleboard, a roller-skating rink and even a bowling alley. The club overlooks one of the community’s reservoirs, which are all stocked with bass and bream and provide opportunities for anglers close to home. But vigilance is key when fishing in South Florida. “We do see the occasional alligator sunbathing by the lake,” Hoff Roth says.
Several types of bass also roam the lakes at nearby Markham Park, a nearly 670-acre expanse with a dozen miles of trails. Remote-control pilots practice in the model airfield, pups enjoy off-leash time in the dog park and there’s even a disc golf course and archery range here. Weston Regional Park serves as the community’s sports hub, accommodating everything from soccer to pickleball. The local YMCA is also on the grounds.

Botaniko stands out for its contemporary style
Bonaventure’s single-family homes sport an eclectic mix of Spanish Revival, Mediterranean and traditional ranch styles. Each subdivision is different, unified only by the pristine sidewalks that flow from development to development, creating a walkable ecosystem. Detached homes along the community’s outer edges can range from about $400,000 to $900,000. The heart of the neighborhood, however, is home to the new, contemporary Botaniko development, where multi-million-dollar models are the norm. Sleek, straight lines and modern architecture set this area apart from the rest of the community, as does its guard-gated status. Here, buyers can expect to see luxury price tags starting at $2 million and topping out at around $4 million.
Condo complexes also dot the community, with two-bedroom units typically selling between $200,000 and $400,000. Many of these structures, along with single-family homes outside Botaniko, date to Bonaventure’s original construction in the 1970s and lack the latest hurricane preparedness features like impact-resistant windows or roof straps. “A lot of times, that’s why people decide to sell, and the buyer would have to undertake those updates immediately. Insurance is astronomical if you don’t,” Hoff Roth says.
Botaniko Weston is a private enclave of 125 modern luxury residences in Bonaventure.
Many homes in Bonaventure have attached private pools with lake views.

Citywide celebrations at Weston Town Center
The city of Weston adores events. In addition to annual traditions such as the Royal Egg Hunt, the Fourth of July Hometown Celebration Parade and Weston World Fest, the city is known to host artisan markets, classic car shows, food fairs and more. “The YMCA also hosts all sorts of events, and there’s always an amazing turnout,” Hoff Roth says.
Zona Blue offers a taste of Sardinia
After a day on the golf course, duffers head to Shoppes on the Green to cool off with gelato from Delicious by Carlotta Gelati or fill up on something healthy from My Organic Corner. Zona Blu serves modern Sardinian cuisine, highlighting the Italian island’s flavors with an award-winning menu by chef Andrea Fadda. International fare continues across the street at Westgate Square Shopping Center, which hosts Italian, Argentinian and Venezuelan cafes. There’s also a Key Food Supermarket here, although the Publix Super Markets at Weston Lakes Plaza and Country Isles Plaza are more popular. A 5-mile trip brings shoppers to Sawgrass Mills, the largest shopping mall in the neighboring city of Sunrise, which has everything from Target and Walmart to Lululemon and an Adidas outlet store.

Students can attend either Eagle Point or Indian Trace elementary schools, both of which receive grades of A-minus on Niche. After a few years at Tequesta Trace Middle, which scores a B-plus, students can move on to A-minus-rated Western High, known for its robust AP and dual enrollment programs. The school offers an Advanced International Certificate of Education through the University of Cambridge as well as a STEM Academy that allows students to explore topics such as robotics, solar energy and rocket science. As part of Broward County Public Schools, students can apply to attend any district school during specific enrollment periods, making it possible to study at other highly regarded institutions such as A-plus-rated Cypress Bay High.

Cruise to Fort Lauderdale via I-595
Despite its location at the edge of the Everglades, Bonaventure is surprisingly convenient, with direct access to Interstates 595 and 75. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is an 18-mile trip down I-595, and Naples is a straight 90-mile drive west on I-75 (known to locals as Alligator Alley). Commuters can also catch Broward County buses along major streets such as Weston Road.
