Aventura vs. Palm Beach Gardens: Shopping, Golf, and Luxury Lifestyles in Two Different Counties

In South Florida, the most durable real estate value is increasingly tied to lifestyle infrastructure: luxury retail, member clubs, championship golf, and dining that functions like an amenity. For buyers weighing where to place capital and time, five hubs stand out for the way they compress daily convenience into a tightly curated radius: Aventura, Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach’s Worth Avenue district, PGA National’s resort-and-membership ecosystem, and West Palm Beach’s Flagler corridor. Together, they reveal a decisive shift in what defines “prime” in 2026: not just waterfront views, but proximity to experiences that stay relevant year after year.
