A Rare Jewel on the Treasure Coast Orchid Island Golf & Beach Club is widely lauded as one of the most visually stunning and exclusive barrier island private clubs in Florida. Nestled between the beautiful Atlantic Ocean and scenic Indian River, our community’s 310 West Indies-style homes and 66 low-rise oceanfront condominiums are surrounded by a lush and verdant landscape that is maintained with exacting standards. Many would say that our three clubhouses, including our breathtaking Beach Club, active Tennis & Wellness Center and our award-winning Arnold Palmer designed golf course, are the heart of Orchid Island. But our members believe it’s our spirit of community that makes us unique. We are an intimate club where enduring friendships are quickly formed and all members are made to feel right at home. There is no other Orchid Island!
One-of-a-Kind Community Orchid Island is one of Florida’s smallest municipalities with its own elected mayor and town council. Our custom estate residences, courtyard homes and cottages are tucked away on private cul-de-sacs and winding streets to maintain open views of the lush fairways and sparkling lakes. Luxurious, low-rise, oceanfront condominiums sit atop picturesque dunes on our pristine, private beach. Inside this one-of-a-kind sanctuary, members enjoy many varied activities and events throughout the year. The Club’s strong financial position and contemporary amenities give members a sense of security and pride knowing their decision to buy a home and membership was a wise choice.
A Privileged Enclave at the Edge of the Sea
Oceanfront Majesty An emerald ocean, turquoise reflecting pool and lush tropical foliage provide the backdrop for our crown jewel – a stunning 25,000 square foot, West Indies-inspired Beach Club. Its covered loggias, water fountains and sun-drenched terraces are the perfect setting for upscale dining and special events. An ambiance of understated elegance makes parties, reading, relaxing or just enjoying a drink with a new friend, something special. Our staff is attentive and caring, striking just the right note of unobtrusive service. Steps away, 25 private cabanas surround our heated pool, pool bar and spa, lined by towering palm trees waving in the gentle ocean breeze.
Casual to Upscale Dining From sunrise to late evening, members enjoy diverse dining options at one of our distinctive clubhouses. All amenities are just a short ride away in the comfort of their personally-owned golf cart. Whether it’s a poolside lunch, casual dinner at the Golf Club or more upscale culinary experience at the Beach Club, our chef’s masterful selections are guaranteed to please the most discerning palate. Innovative and healthy dining menus are offered alongside decadent dishes. When time or convenience is an issue, members can always pick up an order to go at any of these outstanding venues.
a Short Golf Cart Ride Away

River-to-Ocean Private Community
Enrich Mind, Body, Spirit The outstanding amenities of Orchid Island are just the framework for a full social life. And it all begins with a welcoming, unpretentious spirit of friendliness and hospitality that makes new residents, their families and guests feel right at home. If you seek adventure on the water, there are organized fishing, boating, and kayaking excursions on the scenic Indian River. Our Yacht Club members plan numerous cruises along Florida’s East Coast, including forays to the Florida Keys and the Bahamas, and moor their boats at a marina within minutes of our gates. Our members love to expand their knowledge through numerous classes, guest speakers, cooking demonstrations and events. Fans of bridge can attend master classes at the nearby Vero Beach Bridge Center and play in tournaments at our Beach Clubhouse. There’s always room for another avid reader in our many book clubs. And our active chorale group regularly takes its talents on the road, performing at multiple venues across the Treasure Coast. Our philanthropic-minded members serve many charitable organizations and regularly give back to the surrounding community.
Wildlife Neighbors The Treasure Coast may be named for the gold and gemstones lost when Spain’s 1715 Treasure Fleet sank off Orchid’s shoreline, but the real treasure is our wildlife. As a certified Audubon Cooperative Community Sanctuary, we are dedicated to sound environmental stewardship. We help protect 300 species of birds, over 750 species of fish and 2,000 species of plants found in and around the Indian River lagoon. Anglers rate it as one of the finest inland saltwater fishing areas in Florida. Nearly a third of the manatees in America live or migrate through this river. And our private beach provides one of the densest sea turtle nesting areas in the Western Hemisphere. Orchid Island members regularly enjoy the antics of the sea otters frolicking in our ponds and the dolphins playing under the bridge that connects us to the mainland. Majestic white pelicans nesting in our nation’s first wildlife refuge, nearby Pelican Island, gently glide in to rest in our many lakes. Herons, egrets, ibis and spoonbills also grace our land and waters.
Casual, Sophisticated Vero Beach The quaint seaside town of neighboring Vero Beach is unspoiled by high-rises and crowds. It offers cutting-edge cardiac and cancer health care, a sophisticated art scene and wonderful choices of restaurants. Two symphony orchestras and an Opera Guild bring us the finest in musical arts, while the Riverside Theatre provides a rich selection of Broadway-quality stage performances. The Vero Beach Art Museum attracts world-class touring exhibits and offers a permanent collection, which is the envy of many major art museums. Private jet access to our island paradise is easy with the towercontrolled, 7,000 foot runway at the Vero Beach Airport. Commercial travelers can reach us by flying into Vero Beach Regional Airport or into nearby Melbourne, Orlando and Palm Beach airports.
