Welcome to El Cid

Historic Elegance Just Minutes from Palm Beach

Located just five minutes over the bridge from Palm Beach Island, El Cid is one of West Palm Beach’s most exclusive and architecturally significant neighborhoods. Revered for its stately homes, tree-lined streets, and elevated sense of privacy, El Cid offers a rare blend of historic charm and luxury living, set along the scenic waterfront of the Intracoastal.

Originally developed in the 1920s and 1930s, El Cid is a showcase of classic Mediterranean Revival and Mission-style architecture, with many meticulously restored estates that preserve the craftsmanship and grandeur of the era. Behind ornate gates and lush hedges, homes often feature original details such as pecky cypress ceilings, arched doorways, and hand-crafted tilework, alongside modern updates and resort-caliber amenities including private pools, guest houses, and expansive outdoor living spaces.

The neighborhood’s prime location offers the best of both worlds: tranquility and prestige, with effortless access to Worth Avenue’s world-class shopping and dining, The Norton Museum of Art, the Kravis Center, and the growing luxury and culinary scene in downtown West Palm Beach. Stroll or bike the Flagler Drive waterfront promenade, or enjoy easy marina access for yachting and water sports just minutes from home.

For those who appreciate timeless architecture, walkability, and proximity to both Palm Beach Island and West Palm’s cultural core, El Cid is a rare opportunity—an elegant enclave where history, location, and lifestyle converge.
