Location & boundaries

Off Northlake Boulevard, seven miles west of I-95

Ibis sits at 8225 Ibis Boulevard in West Palm Beach, ZIP 33412, roughly seven miles west of I-95 off Northlake Boulevard, close to the Palm Beach Gardens line and beside the Grassy Waters Nature Preserve. The community's 33 neighborhoods spread across the 1,900-acre campus, with two gates and interior streets organized around the three courses. Downtown West Palm Beach and Palm Beach International Airport are both reachable via Northlake and I-95 in normal traffic.

Architecture & character

Three Nicklaus courses around a family clubhouse

The community is organized around golf: the Legend, Heritage, and Tradition courses designed by the Nicklaus family frame the neighborhoods, with the 100,000-square-foot clubhouse, a 20-acre practice facility, and 16 tennis courts at the social center. Housing ranges from golf-view estate homes to condominium lodges and villas across the 33 neighborhoods, all behind 24-hour gates. The Grassy Waters Nature Preserve at the community's edge gives it a surprisingly wild, treed setting for a country club.

Flood zone & insurance

Inland ground near the preserve

The community sits inland, away from coastal high-hazard zones, with lakes and preserve-edge lots carrying the most exposure. Flood insurance requirements follow each property's mapped zone, so verify a specific address with FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and an insurer.

New construction & pre-construction

A built-out master plan with resale-led inventory

Completed

Ibis's neighborhoods are built out; new product arrives mainly as rebuilding lots and resale homes rather than developer phases. Current lot and resale inventory is confirmed directly with Kelby.

Investment & rental considerations

Membership costs are the gate, rentals follow club rules

The club's equity membership requirement adds meaningful carry cost to any investment purchase, and rental rules and approval processes sit with the club and POA rather than the city's standard residential rules. No rental-yield or equity figures were verified beyond the published fee schedule; underwrite the specific property with Kelby and the club.
