55+ Communities in Pembroke Pines

Pembroke Pines has grown into one of Broward County's larger cities, and its active-adult market grew right along with it. At its center is a large Century Village, built at the same scale as the well-known age-restricted communities in West Palm Beach and Boca Raton, with its own web of individually named condo buildings such as Hollybrook, Suffolk, Kingsley, Cambridge, Plymouth, and the Ivanhoe East and West sections. Together they make Pembroke Pines one of the deepest active-adult condo markets in southern Broward County.

Beyond Century Village, Park Place Condominium and the Hollybrook Golf and Tennis community add more established, amenity-focused options, the latter built around its own golf course and racquet facilities rather than the more general clubhouse model. This gives Pembroke Pines a wider range than a single mega-community: buyers can choose the deep, affordable inventory of Century Village's many buildings or a golf-oriented community with its own identity and amenities.

The lifestyle across these communities centers on the classic active-adult formula: clubhouses, pools, fitness and card rooms, and a packed calendar of resident clubs, classes, and events, with golf and tennis added at the communities built around those amenities. Century Village's scale means an unusually large and active social calendar, often with its own theater and a wide range of programming, similar to its sister communities elsewhere in South Florida.

Because Century Village and most of Pembroke Pines' other 55+ inventory is condominium, Florida's post-Surfside reforms shape any purchase here. Buildings three stories and up must complete milestone structural inspections and fund a structural integrity reserve study, and owners can no longer vote to waive that funding. With so many individually managed buildings inside Century Village alone, financial health varies from one building to the next even within the same complex, so checking the specific building's reserves and inspection status matters as much as choosing the right community. We review this building by building rather than assuming one Century Village unit is like another.

The standard active-adult rules apply across these communities. Under the Housing for Older Persons Act, communities generally require at least one resident to be 55 or older, cap the number of younger residents, and limit how long grandchildren and other under-age guests can stay. Leasing rules vary by building and by community, particularly between Century Village's many separate associations and standalone communities like Hollybrook, so confirming the specific rules before you buy is essential if renting is part of your plan.

Pure Equity knows Pembroke Pines' active-adult market building by building, not just community by community, which matters given how many separate associations exist within Century Village alone. We help you compare Century Village's individual buildings against Hollybrook Golf and Tennis and Park Place, read each association's financial health, and confirm the age and lease rules that fit your plans. Tell us your budget and what you want from the community, and we will find the right fit in Pembroke Pines.
