Many seniors are resistant to the idea of moving to an assisted living community because they have such a negative image of nursing homes and senior living facilities in general. However, luxury assisted living provides seniors with services, activities, housing, and environments that are opulent and upscale, not dreary.
Luxury assisted living communities like Vista Springs don’t limit a senior’s life to a single room, but go out of their way to bring elderly residents all the comforts of home, along with a few extra touches and amenities that make every day a joyful one.
What is Luxury Senior Living?
Seniors who live in luxury senior living communities receive additional amenities that aren’t found in typical senior homes, along with upscale and— let’s face it— luxurious, accommodations. Not all luxury communities are going to be the same, but they generally have some similar features, such as:
- Extensive activity calendars
- Plenty of entertainment options
- Gourmet dining
- Exceptional care services (especially in the case of luxury assisted living)
- Therapy services
- Pet-friendly rooms
- Spacious floor plans
- Beautiful grounds
- Spas or gyms
- Additional on-site boutiques
Again, while every luxury senior living option will have different luxury services, most will have a combination of some of these, and maybe even more depending on the community you choose.
What Luxury Looks Like in Assisted Living
While in some luxury senior living communities the residents are expected to care for themselves completely, luxury assisted living works a little differently. Not only do you receive the same benefits listed above, but also receive specific care services made to help seniors who need some assistance with everyday tasks, but not the intensive care found in a nursing home.
Assisted living care services can include small things like money and medication management and meal planning to more detailed care like helping with bathing or dressing and getting into a wheelchair. In a luxury setting, these care services are not only provided by trusted professionals, but the depth of care can often be more resident-specific as well.
Many of the services provided in assisted living involves taking care of the tasks you don’t want to do, like cooking, housework, yard work, laundry, and other daily chores. Luxury assisted living takes it one step further by providing excellent meals, beautiful decor, and expedient services for residents.

We take care services very seriously, which is why we have our staff certified through the Alzheimer’s Association so they can provide the very best help for residents.
Costs & Amenities
Many assisted living communities come with hidden costs that can take families by surprise. That’s why at Vista Springs we have an all-inclusive rate for:
- Care level
- Medication management
- Room & board
- Housekeeping
- Laundry
- Full meal plan (3 meals a day + snacks)
- Activities
The benefit of living in a luxury community is having access to the great benefits that come with it, so we don’t want our residents blocked from the best we have to offer, like spas, cafes, libraries, or greenhouses.
Culture
One of the most important factors of a luxury assisted living community is the culture that is put in place. After all, the way people behave and their attitudes go a long way towards making a community a luxury environment.
A rich luxury atmosphere is maintained by excellent staff and includes plenty of engaging activities. The right culture will also encourage growing friendships among residents, and provide homey accommodations. These are the details that make luxury communities a step above regular assisted living facilities.
At Vista Springs we have a simple philosophy, and it’s that every day should be Full of Life. Contact us to schedule a tour to see the difference that luxury assisted makes for our residents.
