The Ritz-Carlton Residences, a Single Oceanfront Address on Singer Island
The Ritz-Carlton Residences sits at 2700 North Ocean Drive on Singer Island, the barrier island within the City of Riviera Beach in northern Palm Beach County. This is not a master-planned club community spread across hundreds of acres, it is a single, signature branded-residence building: a gated, full-service oceanfront condominium on a private stretch of Singer Island's beach, completed in 2008 and operated under a license from The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company. The lifestyle thesis here is single-address luxury, a managed, hotel-serviced tower with direct private beach access, 24-hour concierge, valet, and resort pools.
For buyers, this is the turn-key, lock-and-leave alternative to a single-family estate in Jupiter or a guard-gated club like PGA National. You trade lawn, dock, and roof for a managed building, a concierge desk, and someone else handling the grounds while you are away. The trade is real and it is a monthly one: full resort service is funded by association dues. My job is to make sure you understand the structure, the floor-plan collection, and the true cost of ownership before you fall in love with the ocean view.

A Managed Branded Residence, Not a Hotel You Own
The most important detail for an out-of-area buyer: this is a condominium operated under a license from The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, not a property owned or developed by the hotel company itself. You are buying a privately owned residence in a managed building that carries the Ritz-Carlton service standard and name under that license. The building is widely described as approximately 242 residences across two towers on a beachfront parcel, completed in 2008, with floor plans organized into Signature, Tower Suite, Penthouse, and Resort Residence collections.
Because service is the product here, ownership is a monthly commitment. The building runs on association dues that fund the concierge, valet, security, pools, and the staff who maintain the private beach and common areas. Published dues figures vary widely across third-party sources, so I will not print a number that could mislead you, I will get the current dues, reserve status, and any assessments directly from the association before you write an offer. That, plus the floor-plan collection you choose, is the real cost-of-ownership picture.
Why it matters: a buyer who wants a private, low-density estate with their own dock and grounds will not find that here. A buyer who wants the ocean, the service, and a lock-and-leave base they can leave for months at a time will find few South Florida addresses that do it more completely. I will tell you honestly which one you are.
The Private Beach & Singer Island's Coastline
The ocean is the whole point of this address. The building fronts a private stretch of Singer Island's roughly 4.7 miles of beach, with advertised direct, gated access to about 375 feet of beachfront (a marketing figure, treat it as advertised rather than surveyed). Singer Island is a barrier island split between Riviera Beach to the north and the town of Palm Beach Shores at the southern tip, with the Atlantic on one side and the Intracoastal Waterway on the other.
Beyond the building's own sand, the island and its surroundings are built for the water. John D. MacArthur Beach State Park anchors the north end with nearly two miles of beach, a long boardwalk over the estuary, a nature center, and paddling. Phil Foster Park at the foot of the Blue Heron Bridge holds a well-known artificial-reef snorkel trail, Peanut Island Park is reachable by water taxi for swimming and snorkeling, and Sailfish Marina and Riviera Beach Marina Village put fishing charters, rentals, and waterfront dining within a few minutes. For a residence with no private dock of its own, the surrounding water access is part of what you are buying.
Floor-Plan Collections Inside the Building
The building is organized into several residence collections, from the standard floor plans to the larger penthouses, with multi-bedroom layouts across the towers. Each carries its own association-dues math and ownership profile. Tap a collection to see matching oceanfront listings on Singer Island.

The largest layouts at the top of the towers, with the widest ocean and Intracoastal views. Verify ceiling heights, terrace space, and the dues and reserve picture for the higher-floor units.
Browse penthouses →Resort Amenities & Concierge Living
24-Hour Concierge & Valet
A staffed concierge desk and valet parking around the clock, the heart of the branded-residence service and the reason the building works as a lock-and-leave base.
Pools & Poolside Dining
A heated oceanfront lagoon pool, a resort pool, two whirlpool spas, and a private poolside restaurant and grille with a summer kitchen, the social core between the towers and the beach.
Fitness, Screening & Social Rooms
A fitness center, a private cinema-style screening room, a social room with a catering kitchen, a boardroom and business center, and a library, amenities sized for a full-time or seasonal household.
Location
On Singer Island in Riviera Beach, minutes from downtown West Palm Beach and roughly 20 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport via I-95 and Blue Heron Boulevard.
Dining, Recreation & Getting Around
Beyond the building's own poolside restaurant, Singer Island and the surrounding resort corridor put oceanfront dining within walking and short-drive distance. TULA brings oceanfront fine dining at the Amrit Ocean Resort, the Palm Beach Marriott Singer Island Beach Resort & Spa added ONA Coastal Cuisine in 2024 alongside its 3800 Ocean restaurant, and The Singer Oceanfront Resort (Curio Collection by Hilton) runs Caretta Caretta and the Top Shell beachfront bar. For something casual, Johnny Longboats is a beachfront grill on the island, and the Sailfish Marina Resort restaurant serves waterfront in Palm Beach Shores.
For recreation, the island and its edges are built around the water: John D. MacArthur Beach State Park (about 438 acres, nearly two miles of beach, a 1,600-foot boardwalk, and a nature center), the Phil Foster Park snorkel trail under the Blue Heron Bridge, Peanut Island Park by water taxi, and the charters and rentals at Sailfish Marina and Riviera Beach Marina Village. There is no golf course at the building itself, but the greater West Palm Beach area holds more than a dozen courses and ranges within a reasonable drive.
| Palm Beach Int'l Airport (PBI) | About 12 miles, roughly 20 minutes via I-95 and Blue Heron Boulevard |
| Downtown West Palm Beach | Roughly 5 to 6 miles, about 10 to 15 minutes |
| Jupiter | About 10 to 11 miles north |
| On-Site Golf | None at the building; 12+ courses/ranges in the greater West Palm Beach area |
Schools Serving the Singer Island Area
The Singer Island area is served by the School District of Palm Beach County, with private options in the broader North Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens area. Public assignment is by exact home address and choice/magnet programs admit by application, so confirm both the zoned schools and any choice options for the 2700 N Ocean Drive address before a purchase decision. The notes below are factual, not a quality ranking.
Checked against the district's own attendance-boundary layer for 2700 N Ocean Drive (2026-07-24), the building is zoned to Lincoln Elementary (Riviera Beach), John F. Kennedy Middle School (Riviera Beach, with magnet/IB and gifted programs), and William T. Dwyer High School (Palm Beach Gardens). Suncoast Community High School (Riviera Beach) is a high-performing choice/application magnet that is not strictly zoned. Private options include The Benjamin School (campuses in North Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens) and The King's Academy in West Palm Beach. Boundaries can change, so verify zoning and program options with the School District of Palm Beach County before you buy.

My Honest Take on the Ritz-Carlton Residences
What I tell buyers who ask about this building
If you want the ocean at your door with none of the upkeep, few South Florida addresses do it more completely. You get a private beach, a 24-hour concierge and valet, resort and lagoon pools, a fitness center, a screening room, and a poolside restaurant, all managed, all behind a gate. For a seasonal owner or anyone who travels, the lock-and-leave service is the whole appeal, and Florida's no-state-income-tax math sits underneath it. The single-address simplicity, one building, one staff, one set of amenities, is a feature for the right buyer.
What this building doesn't do well
It is condominium living, not a private estate. There is no private dock, no yard, no separate roof of your own, and the monthly association dues are significant and a real part of the cost of ownership. Published dues figures vary widely across sources, which is exactly why I insist on getting the current numbers from the association before you commit. You are also buying into condominium rules, reserves, and any assessments, and a managed building means the service standard, and the budget, is shared. If you want acreage, a private boat dock at the back door, or full control of your own land, this is not the fit.
Who it's best for, and who should look elsewhere
Best for: seasonal and lock-and-leave owners who want oceanfront living without maintenance, buyers who value full-service concierge living and a private beach, and anyone trading down from a high-upkeep estate to a managed address.
May not suit: buyers who want a private dock and deep-water boating at home (look at a waterfront community like Admirals Cove in Jupiter), those who want acreage and privacy, or buyers who want a single-family golf-and-club lifestyle (consider PGA National). I will tell you honestly when one of those is the smarter match.
