One Hollywood Residence: Amenities and Daily Lifestyle in Downtown Hollywood

For an executive who has spent years managing a large property, the appeal of a condominium is rarely square footage. It is the removal of daily upkeep and the arrival of services, shared spaces and a walkable setting. One Hollywood Residence, a planned 23-story tower in downtown Hollywood, Florida, is built around that idea, and its amenity program is the clearest way to judge whether it fits.

According to the project's own website, the development offers studios and one-, two- and three-bedroom condominium residences, with a sales gallery at 1939 Hollywood Boulevard. Secondary listings from Miami Residence and CondoBlackBook describe 248 residences ranging from 517 to 1,425 square feet. Those sizes are worth keeping in mind: this is a building of compact, efficiently planned homes, and the amenities are meant to carry much of the lifestyle that a large estate once supplied.

This article focuses on what the building offers and how it may live day to day. It does not attempt to compare the project against every other tower in South Florida, and where sources disagree, we say so.

The developer's amenities page lists a fitness center; a sauna, spa and treatment room; his and her locker rooms; a resort-style pool and spa with lounge chairs and cabanas; an outdoor barbecue with seating; a multi-purpose clubroom and private event space with a dedicated kitchen; a business center; an outdoor plaza with a fountain; a kids club and playground; and a pet-friendly policy. The same page also lists a rooftop lounge with outdoor seating and a viewing deck, an outdoor TV area, a private event space, a dedicated bar and a summer kitchen.

CondoBlackBook adds detail that the developer page does not spell out in the same way: a dedicated yoga studio, a natural wood sauna and steam room, a package delivery room, bike storage, electric vehicle charging stations, ground-floor retail space and Wi-Fi throughout common areas. It also describes a grand porte cochere with valet service and a lobby with reception and concierge. Because that list comes from a secondary source, buyers should confirm the final amenity inventory against the developer's current documents.

One caution on conflicting information: a Discover South Florida article describes a rooftop infinity pool, an ocean-view fitness center, a beachside cafe and a dog park, and attributes the design to Arquitectonica. Those claims do not match the developer's own materials, which name BC Architects and place the pool at a resort-style level with a separate rooftop lounge. We have not relied on that description.

The rooftop is the feature the developer emphasizes most. The project's website describes a rooftop lounge for unwinding with a drink under the night sky, and a developer press release on its sales gallery refers to a rooftop garden with a 360-degree observatory deck. CondoBlackBook describes the garden as including seating areas, a yoga lawn, TVs, a fire pit and panoramic views. For a resident who entertains, the combination of a bar, a summer kitchen and a private event space offers an alternative to hosting at home.

The wellness amenities are arguably more relevant to daily routine. A fitness center, yoga studio, sauna, steam room and treatment room, with separate locker rooms, mean that a morning workout and recovery can happen without leaving the building. CondoBlackBook describes the spa as a His and Hers facility. Details such as operating hours, treatment offerings and whether any services carry fees are not in the supplied materials, and they are worth asking about directly.

The developer also lists a complimentary beach club membership, valid for one year after the closing date, according to its amenities page. The terms of that membership, including which club and what it covers, are not specified in the research, so it should be read as a stated benefit to verify rather than a settled one.

Service tends to matter more than any single amenity for someone moving from a staffed estate. According to the developer's descriptions and Miami Residence, the tower is planned with valet and concierge services, a double-height lobby and a porte cochere. The package room and bike storage address the small logistics that otherwise fall on a household.

Inside the residences, the developer's website lists prewired smart-home management technology, a selection of flooring options, a washer and dryer, floor-to-ceiling windows, balconies with glass railings, European-style kitchens with quartz countertops, and bathrooms with modern cabinetry and imported finishes. The developer's site says those balconies are positioned for views of the nearby golf course and the Atlantic Ocean. Views will naturally vary by line and floor, so a specific residence should be evaluated on its own orientation.

Pet-friendly status is listed by the developer, which will matter to many downsizers. The specific pet rules, including size or number limits, are not in the supplied material and should be requested in writing.

The site is at 1817 Taylor Street, according to Miami Residential's listing. The developer states the project is steps from ArtsPark at Young Circle and minutes from Hollywood Beach. Miami Residential describes the surroundings as including dining, shopping and public golf courses, and Miami Residence frames the project as part of downtown Hollywood's cultural resurgence.

This is the main difference from a beachfront or island setting: the lifestyle here is urban and walkable, with the beach a short drive away rather than at the front door. For some retirees that is a benefit, with restaurants and arts programming close by. For others, who prize direct water access, it will be a trade-off, and an in-person visit to the neighborhood at different times of day is the best test.

The ground-floor retail space listed by CondoBlackBook suggests the building is intended to engage with the street rather than sit behind gates. Which tenants will occupy it is not stated in the research.

The developer is Star Developers Group, with BC Architects as architect and Keith Engineering Landscape as landscape designer, according to the project's team page. Interior design is credited in different places to Adriana Hoyos Design Studio, per the developer's press materials, and to Domus Aurea Interiors on the team page, so buyers should confirm the current designer of record. The team page says Star Developers Group has completed more than 1,000,000 square feet of construction across Argentina, Spain and the United States. Fortune Development Sales is named as exclusive sales and marketing partner.

On timing, the developer's sales gallery announcement said the project was expected to break ground later in the year of that release, with completion targeted for late 2027. Miami Residence also lists an expected 2027 completion, while the Discover South Florida article says 2028. Because these differ and construction schedules can change, the developer's current disclosures are the authority.

Pricing has also been reported with some variation. The developer's materials say prices start in the low $400,000s, while Miami Residential lists six condos from $591,500 to $1,197,000 and an average of $1,002 per square foot as of its listing page. These reflect different dates and inventory, so none should be treated as current without checking.

For buyers who want a walkthrough of how the amenity program maps to specific residences, Denis Smykalov and Wolsen Developments can help organize a visit to the sales gallery and a review of the developer's documents.
