What Makes Holiday Springs Different
Holiday Springs is one of only a handful of 55+ communities in Broward County that offers all three major home types — single-family homes, condos, and townhomes — within the same community. This gives buyers an unusual range of options: a single-family home with a garage for $300K-$680K, a townhome for $200K-$450K, or a condo for as little as $55K-$235K.
The community includes multiple sub-associations (Holiday Springs Village 1, Village 3, Golfside, Pinewalk, Highlands, etc.), each with its own fee structure and rules. This explains the enormous HOA range — $98/month for a single-family home to $765/month for a condo in a building with higher amenity and reserve costs.
Home Types and Price Tiers
| Home Type | Sq Ft Range | Price Range | HOA/Mo | Key Features |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single-family homes | 1,200-2,800+ sq ft | $300K-$680K | $98-$295 | Garages, private yards, no shared walls. Lowest HOA in the community. |
| Townhomes | 960-1,510 sq ft | $200K-$450K | $200-$463 | Attached with garage. Middle ground between condo and SF. |
| Condos (Village sections) | 597-1,200 sq ft | $55K-$235K | $375-$765 | Walk-up and elevator buildings. Resort amenities included. |
Amenities
Holiday Springs offers resort-style amenities that are competitive with larger Broward communities despite its lower price points. Amenities include an enclosed swimming pool, clubhouse with gym, sauna, and recreation rooms, tiki huts and outdoor lounging areas, tennis and pickleball courts, billiards, bocce ball, and organized social activities.
The Golfside section of Holiday Springs is specifically designed around proximity to the adjacent Oriole golf course, though golf membership is separate from the community HOA.

The SB 4-D Calculation
Holiday Springs spans multiple building types and construction eras, so SB 4-D exposure varies significantly:
Single-family homes: Not subject to SB 4-D. No structural reserve study requirements, no milestone inspections. You control your own maintenance.
Townhomes: Depends on building height. If under 3 stories, reduced SB 4-D exposure. Verify with the specific association.
Condos (Village sections): Full SB 4-D exposure for buildings 3+ stories and 30+ years old. Request SIRS status, reserve fund balance, and special assessment history before purchasing.

Location
Holiday Springs sits in the heart of Margate, FL, with convenient access to University Drive shopping, the Coral Square Mall area, and major highways (Florida Turnpike and Sawgrass Expressway). Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is 14 miles away. The Atlantic coast beaches are approximately 12-15 miles east.
Margate's location in central Broward County puts Holiday Springs equidistant from the coastal communities (Deerfield Beach, Pompano Beach) and the western communities (Pembroke Pines, Parkland) — a geographic sweet spot for buyers who want access to both without paying coastal insurance premiums.
