Galuppis normal price is $ 29.95 and their Mother's Day was $59.99 . They had outdoor and indoor seating .i usually like outdoor buta bit warm dressed up for the day . I paid a deposit to reserve the spot which was earlier than I actually wanted at 10:00 am when they first opened but still was ok. They had outdoor and I door buffett and also 2 sides inside to go too for certain foods They offered bottomless mimosas of differ flavors I did like the mango one Waffles were offered as the carb for breakfast besides potatoes . I would have also wanted a French toast on egg bread. A suggestion for the waffles would also have been side toppings/fixings as in fruit, Nutella, flavors syrups, whip cream etc. the employee thought that would be a good idea . After my 3rd time at the waffles I actually used a dessert chocolate mousse that had a dab of whip cream and spread it on the waffle , pretty inventive and good. They had a raw seafood area with crab legs, salmon, tuna,shrimp, etc 2 carving sations with ham and prime rib which was really juicy and I also added the sweet ham glaze to my ham slices. I only had a little bit of eggs and potatoes as I enjoy waffles more. The penne a la vodka was good and salmon too. There was brisket and I'm the other choices that I do not eat . The dessert station had chocolate mousse,mi no I tarts, cbrowinies. And warm breading which was delicious . I may come back on a regular Sunday as the price is pretty reasonable at $29.99 Galuppis is surrounded by a golf course. They offer catered events and parties for weddings or other venues. There was a DJ outside playing music as well as every weekend with different bands to listen and dance too The food was consistently replenished and I saw no signs of an empty tray which was nice . There is a boardwalk one can walk on and take pictures for events . Always something happening here to check out.

What a legendary night at Pompano Beach Amphitheater for the Willie Nelson concert! Willie still…read moreknows how to command a crowd and turn a South Florida night into pure magic under the stars. This venue seriously deserves its flowers. Every seat feels like a good seat -- even farther back you still get amazing views, great sound, and that intimate concert vibe that bigger arenas just can't match. The covered open-air setup makes the whole experience feel relaxed, breezy, and perfectly Florida. The crowd energy was incredible, the acoustics were on point, and the staff kept things moving smoothly all night. Only downside? Parking was definitely a bit of a struggle getting in and especially leaving after the show. Pro tip: arrive early and pack a little patience for the exit traffic. Totally worth it once the music starts. Between the iconic Willie Nelson performance and the atmosphere at The Amp, this was one of those "you just had to be there" concert nights. #WillieNelson #LiveMusicMagic #SouthFloridaNights #ConcertVibes #YelpElite #FiveStarNight #PompanoBeachAmp

It is an ocean-view king room. This means the room is on the side of the building but still had a great view of the ocean. You enter valet on the northern side of the building. The valet Matt was quick, friendly and helped with my luggage. Valet is $44 a day. There was a short line at the front desk but there were two employees working and it went quick. The $45 resort fee covers chairs and umbrellas on the beach and two complementary drinks. You can pick from a small list of drinks including beer, g&t and wine. They also offer a morning exercise routine. Monday was yoga by the pool. The room was large with a nice modern design, a small couch and side table and a nice balcony with two chairs and a table. There was a coffee maker and fridge but no microwave. We ordered room service and had breakfast out on the balcony one morning. There were games setup in one of the meeting rooms right outside the pool and free popcorn was offered daily. The pool was large with plenty of chairs but people did save seats early in the morning. I went down at 9am and there were about five seats not claimed and only around eight people at the pool. Everyone else started showing up to their saved chairs around 10am. The pool did get less crowded with fewer children as the day went on. By 3pm there were more open chairs available. The beach is right outside the gate. Along with the chairs and umbrellas there is a sand pit with toys for the kids, a tiki bar and volleyball net. The hotel is very clean with modern decor. It is in a very residential area so there aren't any shops or restaurants around to walk too. Everything is about a mile south near the pier. It was the perfect place for rest and relaxation which is exactly what I was looking for.

Housekeeping staff are super kind, and anything we needed arrived quickly! The negative: Don't waste your money! We paid $400+ per night (amenities included, valet separate) and found out the hotel sells $45/day passes to non-guests. We had an issue with our room, and the hotel could not move us because it was full. We were told we'd get 2 chairs, access to the private beach, and 2 welcome drinks. No chairs, all 4 days we were there (party of 8). The welcome drinks were gin, non-ach or wine... Service was extremely slow, the pool was overcrowded, and the staff was so cranky/rude that everyone seemed to dislike their job. For a hotel marketed as a remodeled, luxury spa retreat, this was disappointing and not what we paid for. The icing on the cake was waiting 30m+ to valet our car due to the influx of people coming and going, oh, and having to bring our own luggage up and down due to no carts. Spoke with Ricardo about our entire stay, and he just stared at my husband, then proceeded to say, "Well, when you go to Disney on a holiday weekend, it's going to be busy." Sir... when I go to Disney, I know it's going to be crowded because it's DISNEY. You're a Marriott selling $400+ rooms a night and over-crowding your hotel, causing your guests to not enjoy the amenities you're claiming to provide, then when we say we are unhappy, you don't even bother trying to work with us; you looked annoyed. I wish we read the comments before staying because it seems to be a recurring theme.

DO NOT use this vendor...they're horrible and they ruined our wedding! My blood boils when I even…read morethink of them! We hired Grace and her staff for our beachside wedding. The staff showed up 10min's PRIOR to our scheduled ceremony time! I was frantic & kept calling Grace to find out where her staff was at - a bride should NOT have to do this minutes before being scheduled to walk down the aisle! When the staff arrived, they claimed it was because their last job assignment ran late and they were stuck in traffic. I'm NOT in the business and even I know to plan and allow enough time for something this important! Months before our wedding, we paid extra to rent the bamboo alter. We showed Grace photos of how we wanted the alter decorated (elegant w/ white drapery). Her guys show up & they start stapling palm tree leaves & red flowers. I'm watching from the balcony at our resort from across the street & I'm ready to have a stroke. I'm on my cell calling my family members & having them run down to the beach to tell the guys how they're SUPPOSED to be decorating the alter. Meanwhile, we have 75 guests in the lobby of the resort waiting to cross the walk over to the ceremony site. Turns out, her staff had no idea we had a specific alter decoration request (do these people not communicate over there???) so they tell my family they don't have enough fabric to set the alter up the way we requested. Instead of having the elegant draping effect we requested months ago, they take what little white fabric they found in their truck & wrap it around the alter poles as if it were a candy cane...come on, seriously??? It was SOOOOO TACKY!!! Grace's staff was so unorganized and slow that my brother in law had to help them set up by unloading their 80lb+ speakers...this is my brother in law who's in the wedding and getting all sweaty and gross because he didn't want to delay our ceremony anymore than it had been. Well as if that's not all the worse of it, the wrong song was played when I walked down the aisle!!! Months before the wedding I told Grace I wanted Cannon D for my wedding march...as I approach the ceremony site, they're playing "Here Comes the Brid". Can these people get anything right??? I even reminded Grace of this the night before our wedding during the rehearsal! Everytime I hear Cannon D now I'm practically in tears! As a result of Grace's staff being so late, our ceremony ran nearly an hour past our schedule. We had to rush and take photos with what little light we had left. When we got to our own cocktail hour, the food was cold and dried out from sitting under heating lamps. The same goes for our reception...we were so late that all the food was ruined! I called Grace the day after our wedding in tears and she didn't even apologize for what happened. I asked for a refund and she scoffed at me! I'm in the customer service industry...when I hire someone to deliver goods or services, I expect them to. However, when those services are not delivered as I specifically instructed, then I don't feel compensation is deserved - simple as that. And this isn't a sandwich order somebody screwed up...this is my wedding for crying out loud - I'll never have another wedding day ever again!!! I approached Grace at a later date re this situation and she denied any wrongdoing on her part or her staff's part. Never mind the fact that I have my detailed cell phone bill showing the times I called her (minutes before my scheduled ceremony time), never mind the fact that I have 75 guests as witnesses that the ceremony didn't happen as scheduled and as printed on our ceremony handout and never mind the fact that the entire resort staff witnessed what happened since all of our guests hung out in their lobby and they had to figure out how to keep our food warm since we were running so late. I mean seriously, to accuse me of lying...what, did I pay everyone else to lie too? When you do something wrong, fess up to it - simple as that. I'm a reasonable person...I wouldn't be so upset if she would've admitted to her wrongdoing, issued me a refund along with an apology. Please, whatever you do, do NOT hire this company for your wedding services. My situation was so horrific that even the Atlantic Resort and Hotel in Ft. Lauderdale made it a point to stop referring their guests to use this company...they immediately cut all ties with A Seaside Wedding after my unfortunate situation. Need I say more???

As a fan of history and architecture, the Hollywood Women's Club certainly caught my eye as I was…read morewalking along the exercise path that runs along the historic Hollywood Beach Golf and Country Club across the street. Like many women's clubs in Florida, the Hollywood Women's Club was founded in 1922 during the Florida Land Boom years. In the 1920's women's clubs were formed to give back to the community. They became a way for women to get out of the house and assert their independence. They allowed women to get involved in politics and launched the women's rights movement. The Hollywood Women's Club predated the founding of the city and in 1924 they joined the General Federation of Women's Clubs. The first club members were the wives of officers in the J.W. Young Organization which was the development company building Hollywood. They met in the first clubhouse that was built on land donated by the founder of Hollywood, Joseph W. Young in 1927. Early club projects included donating hundreds of books to the first public library, holding tag sales to pay for health screenings for children, giving migrating farmers assistance with housing and welfare, getting the Miami Telephone Co. to bring the first telephone line to town, and collecting $12,000 during a war bonds drive. Today the club supports literacy programs, funds a youth scholarship, participates in the Hollywood Historical Society, supports the neighborhood crime watch, and provides financial aid to many state charities through the General Federation of Women's Clubs. The original plans for the clubhouse included an ornate Mediterranean Revival style. After the collapse of the land boom due to the Great Depression and several hurricanes the design was scaled back to a more affordable $25,000 Classical Revival style building in 1927. The building was listed as a a local historical landmark in 1985, and added to the National Register of Historic Place in 1995. Between 2012 and 2014 money was raised by the club and added to a grant to prevent the clubhouse from sinking into the sand. Other cosmetic work was also completed on this charming historical building. In 2022 the Hollywood Women's Club celebrated their 100th anniversary. During this time further electrical improvements and upgrades to the kitchen were made. Today the clubhouse is available to be rented for private events. The 1,200 square foot main event room has hardwood floors and a grand piano and can accommodate 60 people. There is also a catering kitchen. Information on how to rent the clubhouse and join and volunteer with this important civic organization can be found on the club website. If there are any upcoming events you can find that information as well. For instance they hold 2 round bingo nights for $10. The next bingo night is May 30th and they serve inexpensive drinks including alcohol and snacks. For over 100 years the women of Hollywood have been coming together to improve their local community as well as the state of Florida. Women's clubs have a legacy of helping their communities and it's nice to see that this one is still going strong today.
