About Wellington

Wellington, Florida is located just 16 miles west of West Palm Beach and was recently recognized as one of the Best Places to Live in America by Money.com; it’s obvious why. This world-famous equestrian city is home to luxury single-family homes and elegant horse country.
 
Wellington’s luxe scene is complemented by a thriving social scene. Every year, January through April, the equestrian season takes show with The Winter Equestrian Festival attracting international dressage riders for a 12-week competition. Additionally, Wellington turns into a high-class backdrop for champagne and parties during Palm Beach International Polo Season.
 
Beyond the glam here, there are plenty of family-friendly homes featuring acreage and even stunning stables fit for any derby horse. The area is also rich with modern conveniences, so even though many of the homes have ample space, you are never secluded or without your go-to entertainment.
