A blend of suburban charm and urban convenience
The Royal Poinciana neighborhood in Hollywood offers residents a unique mix of suburban tranquility and urban accessibility. This area is known for its traditional housing interspersed with pockets of the city's growing downtown district, creating a diverse and dynamic community.
One of the neighborhood's standout features is its proximity to Hollywood Beach, a mere five-minute drive or 15-minute bike ride away. This world-famous beach, with its 2.5-mile Broadwalk, offers residents easy access to sandy shores, oceanfront dining, and beachside entertainment.
The heart of downtown Hollywood, centered around Young Circle, is within walking distance. Here, residents can enjoy the ArtsPark, a vibrant community space that hosts various events throughout the year. From food truck gatherings and outdoor movie nights to holiday festivals and live performances at the amphitheater, there's always something happening at this cultural hub.
Dining options in the area cater to a variety of tastes. Jack's Hollywood Diner, a local institution serving comfort food for over 70 years, is just a short walk away. For those craving international flavors, El Paso 2 offers festive Mexican cuisine in colorful surroundings.
Grocery shopping is convenient with a Publix Super Market at Hollywood Circle about a mile away. For outdoor enthusiasts, several parks are within easy reach. John B. Kooser Memorial Park and Exercise Trail offers walking paths and playground facilities less than a mile from the Marlynn Apartments. Holland Park, known for its waterfront location and observation tower, provides opportunities for boating, fishing, and picnicking just a mile away.
The neighborhood is also home to several educational institutions. South Broward High School, known for its marine maritime magnet program, is about a mile from the property. Hollywood Central Elementary School and Olsen Middle School are also nearby, serving the community's younger residents.
Multiple transit options for local and regional travel
The Marlynn Apartments' location provides residents with various transportation options, balancing the need for car-based travel with public transit accessibility. For those relying on public transportation, several bus stops are within walking distance. The US1 & Hayes S bus stop, less than half a mile away, serves the Taft Street Local and US 1 Local lines. Just a bit further, the US1 & Johnson S stop offers additional options, including the US 1 Breeze and routes to Broward Terminal and Young Circle.
For regional travel, the Hollywood Tri-Rail station is about a 5-minute drive away. This station connects residents to the wider South Florida area, making commutes to Fort Lauderdale or Miami more manageable. Speaking of Miami, it's worth noting that many Hollywood residents commute south for work, with the city being less than 20 miles away.
Those preferring to drive will find the location convenient, with easy access to major thoroughfares. Interstate 95 is nearby, facilitating quick travel to other parts of the region. The proximity to I-95 is particularly beneficial for commuters and those needing to reach key destinations like Walter Reed Medical Center or the National Institutes of Health.
For air travel, Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport is conveniently located about 15 minutes away by car. This proximity is a significant advantage for frequent travelers or those receiving out-of-town guests.
While the area is somewhat walkable and bikeable, with scores in the mid-50s for both, many residents find having a car beneficial for daily errands and exploring the wider region. However, the neighborhood's layout does allow for some local amenities and attractions to be reached on foot or by bicycle, providing a nice balance for those who prefer mixed modes of transportation.
