It’s ambitious, controversial, and very real.

What’s Proposed

From country club to luxury enclave?

Here’s what the developers are pitching:

  • Two new eight story buildings: One for 240 hotel rooms, the other a hybrid of 205 hotel plus condo units

  • Three 10-story condo towers

  • 17 two-story villas, each with private pools and garages

  • A 50,000 sq ft expanded clubhouse, upgraded entrance, realigned roadways, and a full golf course renovation

  • HOA has green lit negotiations and now it’s in the city’s hands

What It Means for Residents

  • Big plans equal Big impact: If approved, this transforms Grand Palms from classic country club to high end resort living

  • Potential property value boost: Especially for homes close to the new amenities

  • Years of construction ahead: Increased traffic, noise, and course disruptions are very real

  • Still time to speak up: City approval isn’t guaranteed; expect public hearings and neighborhood feedback

Bottom Line

This isn’t a renovation, it’s a reinvention.

Whether you’re a longtime Grand Palms resident or just curious about what’s next, it’s worth keeping a close eye on this one.

Because what’s coming…could change everything.
