The event highlights the personalized care, fun-filled lifestyle, top-notch entertainment, and amenities residents enjoy every day and includes tours of the four-story buildings of independent living, assisted living, and memory care residences. When it comes to this dynamic community, grand is not an exaggeration. This represents senior living at its absolute best.

Its been nonstop fun since we welcomed our first residents, said Ashley Troutman, director of sales. Grand Living Wellen Park offers a transformative social lifestyle, all-inclusive luxury senior resort living, and engaging programs for every interest and all residents. We want each member of our community to experience first-class happiness.

Residents also enjoyed an only-in-Florida holiday party, a poolside luau complete with pink flamingos and tropical drinks.

The start of 2024 also brings more events, including TED Talks, movie nights, games, mixers, outings, art classes, and much more—even a French ladies tea soirée. (For a full schedule, see the monthly calendar at grandliving.com/communities/senior-living-at-Wellen park-venice-florida.)
