Harbourside Place

Love this place! Great place to shop eat and even listen to great live outdoor music!

Tragically boring new complex. Jupiter completely misses the mark again. This complex has a handful of mediocre shops, most selling tacky gifts and clothes. Nothing interesting or original. Lots of vacant spaces and very few patrons. Parking is in garages at either end.

Great cozy shopping area with restaurants, boat docks, hotel and live music. Harbourside Place has a park-​like feeling to it.

Shopping, boat docks, restaurants, live concerts and more. Great place for the whole family!

Nice place for lunch and dinner. Great on weekends for live music and let the kids dance around! Parking is easy and free under 2 hours.

Recommendation to Harbourside, remove parking and traffic access in front of Tommy Bahamas restaurant. Dining outside the restaurant, your first view is cars than the water, very disappointing for a new place intended to be a destination on the water. And, if someone is driving or leaving with the car, fumes in the eating area. I think they can easily turn this road into emergency-​access only and/​or extend the plaza to the restaurant to allow full access by pedestrians and even extend out the restaurant area.
With that said… I think this is a great place for Jupiter along with the whole Riverwalk, no longer stuck with the few bars and restaurants on the water and places to walk freely. Of course, it will probably get people crazy in the winter but that’s okay, it will be a good place to hang out on a nice breezy, summer night. And, definitely a nice alternative to driving to the Gardens.

A few weeks ago my family and I stumbled upon Harbourside Place. We are locals and decided we would bring the kids to Burger Fi, since we had not had it yet and everyone raved about it. What we got was so much more! When we arrived at Harbourside Place we quickly realized this was so different from what we had imagined. There was ample parking (2 garages, street parking and valet). As we made our way toward the restaurant, we were pleasantly surprised to see they had a family fun day going on. There were bouncers, balloon artists, mini golf and face painting. We were stunned! We quickly put our hunger aside to join in on the fun. I kept looking for where to buy tickets, but there was no ticket booth. It was all free. It was just something Harbourside Place does for families. Wow! We raced to do a little bit of everything before we had to eat. After all the fun, we finally decided to grab a bite to eat. As it began to get dark, we sat outside and waited for our food. Just then the stage lit up and a band began to play as our food arrived. Again, for FREE! My kids quickly finished their meals, at record speed, and we walked down to the amphitheater. We easily found a spot and they were selling light up toys for the kids. The kids were all dancing and playing in front of the stage. It was a blast. My husband and I realized quickly we had stumbled onto something special. So when planning our first weekend getaway without the kids, we decided on Harbourside Place, because after our Family Fun night there was so much more that we wanted to do. There was no competition! It was close to home, so if there was an emergency we could race back to our house. We arrived at the Wyndham Grand on a Friday evening. Wyndham Grand is spectacular (see my review of them). Everything about Harbourside is designed perfectly. It is unlike any other entertainment area. The whole area is enclosed and feels like a town center! The shopping and restaurants are amazing and there is something for everyone. We parked our car at valet on Friday and we didn’t need it again until Sunday when we checked out. Everything is at your finger tips when you stay at Jupiter’s Harbourside Place. After check in the first thing we did was a full walk around of Harbourside Place so we could plan our weekend. While walking we had to stop in some of the stores. A Pretty Pink Princess was our first stop, probably because of the parental guilt in the back of my head that kept telling me when you go away for the first time without your kids you don’t show up back home empty handed. They had such a beautiful selection of toys and gifts for little girls. From there we walked over towards the amphitheater. The amphitheater itself is a work of art. It is beautifully designed and so unique. It truly is like nothing else you have seen before. They had fountains of water shooting out of the ground in front of the stage and there was a group of kids playing in them. There is seating everywhere. Surrounding the amphitheater are decorated garbage cans. Some look like monsters, others beach scenes. There was a sign hanging up that said «Recycling is An Art» and each can had been designed and decorated by students of local schools. What a great way to tie in the community. We walked over to Too Bizarre and enjoyed a unique dining experience. After dinner we decided we would do the Riverwalk. It was absolutely beautiful. They had water fountains in three sizes, one for adults, one for kids and then one for dogs. There are benches and rocking benches all pointing at the intracoastal and at certain spots you can see mangroves. There are even Jupiter Town History Facts posted all along the way. This was stuff I never would have seen if I was chasing after my three year old, so I was glad to have the time to walk and enjoy this. The sunset was absolutely stunning and we sat on one of the many rocking benches as we watched the sky turn pink over the passing boats. On the walk back towards the amphitheater we heard the music start to play. Everyone gathered. We found a spot and spent the next two hours enjoying dancing and having fun. Harbourside Place really has it all. Free live concerts, family events, a green market, yoga and tai chi and all in our back yard! I am so glad we have Harbourside Place! 5 STARS all around for Harbourside!!!
