A distinct Delray Villas neighborhood

Single-story living with a neighborhood pool and a larger shared recreation program.

Delray Villas Plat 1 is an established 55+ community of approximately 274 homeowners in West Delray Beach. It gives residents a smaller neighborhood setting while retaining access to the amenities shared by all five Delray Villas plats.

The central distinction is simple: Plat 1 has its own pool, and every Plat 1 resident also has access to the main Delray Villas Recreation Association complex.

At a glance

A house-like 55+ option without a multistory condominium building.

Homes

Single-story attached villas and detached or single-family-style residences. Two-bedroom, two-bath homes are common, with some larger configurations.

Plat 1 pool

A neighborhood pool provides a convenient local place to swim and gather.

Shared recreation

Main heated pool, Jacuzzi, gym, theater, pickleball, tennis, bocce, shuffleboard, billiards, library, clubs, and activities.

Homes in Plat 1

Private entrances, ground-level living, and meaningful variation from one home to the next.

Plat 1 includes attached villa-style homes, end units, and detached-style residences. Buyers may find screened patios, Florida rooms, corner locations, lake or canal views, interior laundry, and different parking arrangements.

As an established community, interiors range from original condition to extensively renovated. Compare square footage, attached versus detached layout, outdoor space, hurricane protection, roof responsibility, and the condition of major systems before deciding.

Two levels of amenities

Plat 1 pool plus the full Delray Villas Recreation Association complex.

Plat 1 residents can use their neighborhood pool as well as the main heated pool and Jacuzzi at the recreation complex. The shared facilities add a fully equipped gym, a theater, pickleball and tennis courts, bocce, shuffleboard, horseshoes, billiards, card and craft rooms, a meeting room, and a library.

That breadth of recreation is a meaningful advantage for buyers who want an active social environment alongside single-story living.

Plat 1 HOA and Recreation Association

Buyers should understand both association layers.

The Delray Villas Plat 1 HOA handles Plat 1-specific governance, pool, landscaping, architectural matters, and local rules. Separately, the Delray Villas Recreation Association serves all 1,126 homes across the five plats and operates the main recreational complex.

Review the current budget, reserves, insurance responsibilities, assessments, rental procedures, pet rules, and what each assessment covers. Those documents, rather than an older listing, should control the buying decision.

The strongest combination is: single-story residence, private entrance, Plat 1 pool, and access to a much larger community amenity campus. For sellers, lead with the home's layout, waterfront or corner setting, renovations, outdoor space, and access to both levels of amenities.

Use the exact community record before you decide.

This guide is a practical starting point for comparing communities. HOA, court, club, condominium, section, and home-specific information can differ within the same broader community.

For the residence you are considering, the current governing documents, association package, club information, and written association response control.

One-time closing cost

Ask about the capital contribution before you make an offer.

Some associations require a one-time capital contribution or transfer fee at closing. It is separate from the monthly association fee and can apply to a master association, a neighborhood association, or both.

Confirm the current amount, who pays it, when it is due, and whether it is refundable for the exact home. Association requirements can change, so rely on the current written association package before you commit.
