Gleneagles Country Club approves a $54 million clubhouse renovation in Delray Beach
Gleneagles Country Club west of Delray Beach, Florida, has approved a clubhouse renovation capped at $54 million. Construction started in late June 2026 and runs in two phases through October 2028.
Gleneagles Country Club, west of Delray Beach, Florida, approved a clubhouse renovation with a budget not to exceed $54 million at an open board meeting on May 28, 2026, and construction began in late June. The project covers the club's nearly 90,000-square-foot clubhouse and is the largest capital improvement in the club's history.
Club + Resort Business reported the board vote and schedule on June 17. The Boca Raton Tribune, syndicating Mike Diamond of the Palm Beach Post on June 30, put the same budget and phasing on the record. The approved package includes a guaranteed-maximum-price construction contract of about $39.5 million with Mouw Associates and financing through Bank of America. A clubhouse architect or interiors firm was not named in those June trades, so that credit stays omitted here.

Phase I runs from June 2026 through September 2027: Veranda expansion, a new Highlands Room for private events and member programs, and new administrative offices under the Highlands Room. Moving admin out of the main house frees the old office block so Legends Lounge can expand into that space. Phase II, from September 2027 through October 2028, rebuilds the lobby, Legends Dining, Legends Lounge, card rooms, men's and ladies' locker rooms, breezeway, and porte cochere. The program also adds a Zen Waterfall Café overlooking a water feature, a redesigned arrival, and exterior work with tropical landscaping and South Florida-inspired design. Dining, golf, racquet sports, fitness, wellness, and social programming stay open during construction, with two restaurant venues available to members throughout.
General manager and chief operating officer Kraig M. Spina called the board vote a major milestone and said the investment is meant to keep the clubhouse aligned with what today's private-club member expects. The Boca Raton Tribune reported a monthly special assessment of about $205 over 15 years to pay for the project, and a sports-membership buy-in rising from $110,000 to $150,000 on September 15, with buyers under contract by that date and closing by October 30 still paying $110,000. Spina also said the club has already spent more than $75 million in recent years on a Lifestyle Center, tennis and pickleball buildings, and course work.
Gleneagles sits on 404 acres with 1,082 homes, two championship courses, a tennis and pickleball complex, and a 15,000-square-foot Healthy Lifestyle Center. That residential envelope is context. The news for Best Clubhouse is the named clubhouse capital, the Mouw GMP, and a two-phase schedule that ends in October 2028. It sits in the same clubhouses lane as The Club at Ibis campus rebuild in West Palm Beach and the clubhouse work that traveled with Ocala's $63 million IronCrest sale. South Florida private clubs are competing on dining, lounge, and locker-room product as hard as they compete on golf.
