Written by Allegro Staff Writer | May 16, 2023 1:00:00 PM

As the baby boomer generation ages, the demand for luxury senior living communities rises.   

To meet this demand and to remain competitive, senior living owners are distinguishing their communities by offering residents luxury services and amenities that rival vacation resorts and even cruise ships.  

This article will discuss some services and amenities you can expect to find in luxury senior living communities today.

High-end Accommodations  

One of the most appealing features of a luxury senior living community is the quality of its accommodations. 

Residents of senior living communities can choose apartment layouts ranging from spacious studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments, all the way up to villas. Modern, light and airy designs, high-quality appliances, designer finishes, private patios, and modern bathrooms are typical in luxury senior living apartments. 

Maintenance-free Living 

Enjoying your retirement years without the responsibilities of household tasks, home maintenance, and yard care is one of the main draws of senior living communities. 

Senior living communities include many of the following services so residents can spend their days relaxing as they like: 

  • Housekeeping services 
  • Laundry services 
  • Apartment repairs and maintenance 
  • Transportation to shopping, attractions, and health care appointments 
  • Concierge services, including scheduling appointments, making travel arrangements, and booking reservations for dining and entertainment 

Fine Dining 

Are you worried about limited menus and tasteless food? One feature that sets luxury senior living communities apart is their dining options.   

Many of these communities offer restaurant-style dining with chef-prepared gourmet meals. Menu options range from light and healthy options to entrees that you would expect from a fine restaurant. Dining experiences include upscale private dining areas, bistros, coffee cafes, and sports bars.  

In addition, senior living communities like Allegro Fort Lauderdale host presentations, demonstrations, and cooking classes from local food sources, wineries, and craft breweries.  

Health & Wellness Services 

Today’s seniors are healthier, more active, social, and living longer than ever. Older adults are committed to healthy eating, staying fit, and maintaining a lifestyle of wellness.

  • Yoga and meditation classes

Social & Recreational Services 

The wide range of recreational and social activities is one of the biggest reasons seniors move into senior living communities rather than aging in place at home.    

Senior living communities have lifestyle and activities directors that are there to keep residents busy with the following: 

  • Happy hours 
  • Transportation to shopping, local events, and worship services 
  • Home theater room 
  • Library
