Features and amenities will include a spacious Grande Clubhouse featuring multiple, upscale dining options; Legends Club & Bar; bistro with pizza oven; Discovery Silver Cinema movie theater; game and activity rooms; library and media center; and a professional beauty salon, spa and barbershop with massage services. Discovery Village At Sarasota Bay will also offer a high-tech FitCampSM health & fitness center, where residents will receive individualized workout plans and one-on-one coaching and support from FitCampSM Personal Trainers. Outside, the community will provide a zero-entry heated pool with private cabanas, plus an intimate, outdoor entertainment space with a cozy fireplace.
“From top to bottom, the new Independent Living community at Discovery Village At Sarasota Bay is being created to enable new levels of lifestyle customization for resident seniors,” said Richard J. Hutchinson, CEO of Discovery Senior Living. “Consistent with our company’s ‘Experiential Living’ philosophy, the community’s design and construction will complement a highly experience-focused program and services that empower more optionality, choice, and personalization of every lifestyle facet from dining and recreation to fitness and beyond.”
Resident accommodations will include 198 luxurious apartment homes, each one offering spacious, modern kitchens, stainless steel appliances and full-size bathrooms with walk-in showers. The community will also introduce a number of Signature Club apartments with dedicated, underground parking.
The new, Independent Living community will further complement Discovery Village’s award-winning Assisted Living and SHINESM Memory Care offerings, resulting in a total of 324 apartment homes, which will create a full range of available lifestyle options on one campus to better meet the changing needs of seniors through all stages of retirement.
