What You Should Know About Aravilla Sarasota
Aravilla Sarasota is for seniors who want the freedom to live their lives as they wish, embracing health and pursuing their own versions of happiness each day. We create beautiful, safe, resort-like communities that feel like vacation destinations, and we treat our residents like special guests. More importantly, we care for them like family.
Unlike many other communities, Aravilla Sarasota is privately and locally owned, not part of a large, impersonal corporation. Our administrative management lives on site. That means our quality of care is personal and we follow our own evidence-based protocols that immediately meet the needs of the people who live here.

Aravilla communities encourage residents to embrace their passions and explore new possibilities with an array of exciting and engaging programs. Our schedule is bursting with opportunities for cultural enrichment and personal growth. Residents enjoy daily live music. They can also take a spin around the floor with a Fred Astaire-style dance lesson, stay fit in a group exercise class, or go on one of our many excursions to local beaches, restaurants, sporting events, attractions and more. To wind down, our residents can relax with a book and refreshing beverage while enjoying the view of our beautiful courtyard garden.
