Palm Beach County residents might want to stay close to home this summer. Discover The Palm Beaches is promoting local getaways with its #LoveThePalmBeaches campaign, just as construction begins on Northlake Boulevard near the CSX railway. The roadwork is expected to cause major delays, especially for people in Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach, and nearby areas like The Acreage, according to the Palm Beach County Newsroom.
The initiative encourages residents to take a vacation without leaving town, offering a chance to relax while avoiding traffic and supporting the local economy. With special deals and discounts, Discover The Palm Beaches hopes to make staycations both affordable and luxurious—an appealing option during what's often considered the off-season.
DTPB has partnered with a selection of top hotels and resorts offering exclusive summer deals. These offers are available at ThePalmBeaches.com/LovePBC, making it easier to plan a local stay. “We know the closure of Northlake Boulevard will be a challenge and impact the residents in the area. Having a staycation is a great opportunity for residents to experience The Palm Beaches like a visitor—relax, recharge and rediscover what makes our community so special, while helping to ease the congestion in the affected area,” Todd Bonlarron, interim Palm Beach County Administrator, said in a statement obtained by the county's official website. "Residents who appreciate the world-class resorts and hotels here in our destination can experience them this summer at exceptional value," added Milton Segarra, president and CEO of DTPB.
