Written by Napa Valley | Dec 9, 2024 5:00:00 AM

As time passes, we all get into our golden years, so it's never too early to start thinking about what your living arrangements will be like in the future. It's possible to stay in your current home, but according to a recent study, 37% of older Americans experience loneliness. For this reason, it's a better idea to turn to senior living communities.

One fantastic option is Napa Valley senior living. Many seniors are going this route, and you should too.

So why should you choose Napa Valley senior living for your golden years? Read on to find out.

Beautiful Surroundings

There's no denying that Napa Valley is one of the most gorgeous locations in the country. It's known for its family-owned and operated wineries, which dot the lush rolling hills of the area.

Just take a look outside your window, and you'll have a breathtaking view to enjoy. You'll get the peace and serenity you've longed for all your life, soaking in the rustic surroundings.

California is also known for its moderate weather, so you'll benefit from mild temperatures all year long. This will make senior living in Napa extremely pleasant.

Diverse Floor Plans

There's plenty of space in Napa Valley retirement communities, so you won't have to worry about being cramped in a small space. In fact, modern retirement homes offer diverse floor plans, enabling you to choose accommodations that suit your needs best.

Here at The Watermark, we have studio apartments alongside one and two-bedroom apartments. While the studios are cozy, they're large enough for you to still feel comfortable.

In addition, you'll be able to make your space truly feel like home. You can decorate it with pictures, paintings, and more to make it your own.

Lots of Amenities

Seniors who choose to come here will be spoiled with the extraordinary retirement lifestyle in Napa. For one, all of the accommodations at The Watermark have designer kitchens or kitchenettes with modern appliances. The apartments also have oversized windows to let in the gorgeous California sunlight, which will clearly brighten up spaces without being too overpowering.

For peace of mind, all apartments have comprehensive safety and security features as well. Plus, our staff provides helpful services like housekeeping so your loved one doesn't have to do chores themselves.

Outside of the apartments, we've built a true community that exudes the atmosphere of a small and cozy village. For instance, we have a salon and spa where seniors can pamper themselves, looking and feeling their best.

In addition, we have a state-of-the-art fitness center. While residents can do their own workouts, we also have experienced personal trainers who can provide them with personalized fitness plans to ensure they're at their fittest.

Residents at The Watermark can take relaxing strolls in the courtyard too, as well as watch exciting films in the movie theater or have quiet talks with friends in the rooftop terrace garden. There's plenty to keep them occupied and happy.

Choices for Assistance

Every senior's needs are different; they're in various stages of life and some may have more health issues than others. Family members may be concerned that while a community seems fantastic, their loved ones won't receive the support they require to thrive.

Many seniors will opt for independent living in Napa, CA. This will be very similar to living in an ordinary neighborhood, except they'll be amongst others in their demographic. The staff will also provide light services, such as housekeeping; this will allow your loved ones to relax and get much-deserved respite in their golden years.

For seniors who need help, they can get assisted living in Napa. They'll still have their own private spaces, but trained professionals will come to help with tasks they may have issues with. For example, they can assist with dressing, toileting, medication management, and more.

Another option is memory care in Napa; according to the Alzheimer's Association, 6.9 million Americans older than 65 live with Alzheimer's, meaning a decent proportion of the senior population needs memory care. Your loved one will receive compassionate memory care at The Watermark, resulting in comfort and contentment.

Elegant Dining Options

Nutrition is essential, but especially so for seniors. A proper diet is key to keeping them in prime health and fully enjoying their golden years.

It's important to balance nutrition with taste though. Without careful planning, meals can become drab and boring, which can make eating a chore.

At The Watermark, we have expert chefs on staff who craft delicious and wholesome meals. We even have Gourmet Bites Cuisine, which breaks down food into one or two-bite hors d'ouvres. This enables residents to enjoy their food by hand without making a mess.

In total, we have five restaurants where seniors can sit back, relax, and indulge in the tastiest cuisines.

Fun Activities

There's never a dull moment at The Watermark. Our schedule is packed with activities, and our residents can pick and choose which ones to participate in. For example, they can do:

  • Seated qi gong
  • NY Times word games
  • Afternoon walks
  • Bingo
  • Evening meditation

They can also do activities on their own. We have a games and activities room, in addition to these other spaces:

  • Art and creative studio
  • Bocce ball court
  • Pickleball court
  • Putting green

Plus, we give our seniors many opportunities for a change in scenery. We often take them on outings to explore what the gorgeous Napa Valley has to offer.
