Holiday Springs
Condos, townhouses, single-family homes at an affordable price
Holiday Springs offers a variety of housing options within its six villages. In some areas, residents can find Mediterranean-style homes with stucco facades, arched windows, and terracotta roof tiles. Many have small backyards completely covered with stone patios designed for entertaining, featuring private pools and loungers. These single-family homes are the most expensive of the bunch, ranging from $435,000 to $675,000. Townhouses are more affordable, with two- to three-bedroom Mediterranean-style units ranging from $335,000 to $480,000. They were mostly built between 1989 and 2002 on the south side of town, and many come with amenities like access to a community pool and gated security. Condos are the most affordable options, with one- to two-bedroom units built in the 1970s ranging from $63,000 to $185,000. Meanwhile, those built in the 1980s and ‘90s range from $84,000 to $255,000. While a few high-rise buildings are open to folks of all ages, many of the condo units here are in 55-plus communities. “The thing I like to highlight is the resort-style amenities,” says Scott Stiepleman, a Realtor of 19 years with The Keyes Company. “The clubhouse and the pool area are beautiful. It has tiki huts and palm trees,” Stiepleman says of Holiday Springs Village. “It’s the only 55 and older in Margate with pickleball courts.”

Dual enrollment classes at Coral Springs High School
The neighborhood is served by Broward County Public Schools, which includes Margate Elementary School, graded a B-minus; Margate Middle School, graded a C-plus; and Coral Springs High School, graded a B. Coral Springs High offers advanced placement and dual enrollment classes, the latter of which are in partnership with nearby institutions like the University of Florida, Florida International University and Broward College. A couple of well-rated private schools are nearby, such as Meridian High School and Phyl’s Academy Preparatory School, a prekindergarten through twelfth-grade institution.

Firefighters Park is known for its hockey-rink-turned-soccer field
Firefighters Park is the neighborhood’s main outdoor space and is within walking distance for those living on the south side of town. This well-maintained park has something for everyone, from courts for tennis, pickleball and basketball to a fitness trail lined with workout stations to an enclosed soccer field that was once an outdoor hockey rink. “It’s smaller, so instead of playing 11 or 12-man soccer, they play four or five-man games,” Stiepleman says. There is also a small memorial garden in the front of the park adorned with a to-scale replicate of the World Trade Center, a firefighter statue, and a small mural. The park is split in half by a narrow inlet for the Stranahan River, but a steel footbridge connects the main recreation area to a large dog park with size-designated areas. The neighborhood is also close to the Calypso Cove Aquatic Center, a city-owned water park featuring swimming pools, watery playgrounds and colorful water slides. Despite many single-family homes or townhouses and condo communities having private or shared pools, the water park is a popular option for escaping the blistering heat of South Florida summers. The center also offers aerobics classes and swimming lessons and is where the Tsunamis Swim Team meets to practice. The neighborhood is also less than 11 miles away from popular beaches, like North Ocean Park and Pompano Beach.

Shopping, dining at Carolina Springs Plaza
While the neighborhood is primarily residential, a small shopping center, Carolina Springs Plaza, is in the north corner of town. Along with Supermercados El Bodegon, a specialty Hispanic grocery store, there are several local and chain eateries. One popular spot is KOUYOU Sushi & Buffet, an all-you-can-eat spot serving fresh sushi and hibachi. Residents also rave about El Balcón de las Américas, a local chain restaurant serving authentic Colombian cuisine like bandeja paisa and tamales. La Union Bakery is another go-to. Despite its name, this laid-back Mexican eatery serves much more than just baked goods, offering authentic Mexican dishes like juevos rancheros and birria tacos. For even more shopping and dining options, Coral Square Mall is about 4 miles away and is home to around 120 businesses.

The city of Margate hosts an Independence Day celebration
The Fourth of July is one of Margate’s most popular events. The all-day celebration kicks off with a parade down Margate Boulevard at 9 a.m., followed by a community pool party in the afternoon and an extravaganza at night. Residents can enjoy food trucks, obstacle courses and live music during the festival, which culminates with a fireworks show after dark.Proximity to U.S. Route 441, I-95
The neighborhood is close to several busy roads, including N University Drive, W Sample Road and U.S. Route 441, the latter running north-south from Miami to Rocky Top, Tennessee. The community is also close to U.S. Interstate 95, which leads to Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton, about 20 and 14 miles away, respectively. For residents looking to use public transit, Broward County buses pick up throughout the neighborhood. When it comes to air travel, residents have several options. Pompano Beach Airpark is the nearest airport. It’s a small public airport typically used by air taxis, privately chartered planes, and air ambulances. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is the closest major airport to town, about 21 miles away.
