Surround Yourself With Smiles

Get Involved With The Community

Instead of observing from afar, considering joining local events, book clubs, volunteer activities, and other opportunities to connect with new friends. The great thing about calling Westminster Shores “home” is that you already have something major in common with your new neighbors: You’re all passionate about crafting an active, community-oriented lifestyle at the heart of Florida’s Gulf Coast paradise!
Enjoy A Wholesome Meal

This isn’t just a sweet way to feel at home in your new neighborhood — after all, “breaking bread” is a time-honored tradition for a reason — but it also serves a practical purpose, too. Why scramble to organize your kitchen utensils and pantry ingredients upon moving in when you could simply leave the cooking to us?
