Hollywood Beach vs Hollywood Lakes — Which Is Right for You?

Hollywood Beach and Hollywood Lakes are both part of Hollywood, FL — but they offer completely different experiences.

Hollywood Beach is oceanfront. You’re on the Broadwalk, steps from the Atlantic, surrounded by restaurants, beach bars, and live music. It’s active, social, and walkable. Ideal for vacationers who want to be in the middle of it all.

Hollywood Lakes is about a mile inland. Tree-lined streets, waterfront canals, historic homes, and a quieter residential pace. You can bike to the beach in minutes, but your days are slower and more private. It’s the better fit for longer stays, families, snowbirds, and anyone who wants South Florida without the noise.

Things to Do in Hollywood Beach

The Broadwalk is the heart of Hollywood Beach — a 2.5-mile oceanfront promenade lined with restaurants, bike rentals, beach bars, ice cream shops, and live music. You can spend an entire day without ever leaving it.

Hollywood Beach Theatre at Johnson Street hosts free concerts Wednesday through Sunday at 7 PM. Classic rock, Latin bands, reggae, and dance bands perform oceanfront with open seating and dancing space. It’s one of the best free things to do in South Florida.

Margaritaville Resort brings the FlowRider surf simulator, waterfront dining, and regular events to the Broadwalk. Open to resort guests and the public.

For nightlife, the Broadwalk stays active into the evening with beach bars, live bands, and rooftop cocktails. If you want a younger bar scene, downtown Hollywood on Hollywood Boulevard is a short drive away.

Hollywood Dog Beach between Pershing and Custer Streets is open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for off-leash beach time. A daily pass is required. Available amenities vary by property — confirm pet policies before booking.

Who Stays in Hollywood Beach

Hollywood Beach attracts a wide mix of guests:

  • Families come for the Broadwalk, calm surf, and walkable access to restaurants and activities without needing a car.
  • Couples love the oceanfront atmosphere, live music, and waterfront dining.
  • Groups take advantage of larger properties with private pools and beach access.
  • Snowbirds return season after season for the mild winters, walkable lifestyle, and the sense of community that builds along the Broadwalk.

If you’re looking for a quieter, more residential feel, Hollywood Lakes may be a better match.
