This still-very-new community brings Tapestry’s brand of world class senior care to Victoria in a beautiful new setting, the harbourfront area just blocks away from verdant Beacon Hill Park. While the location itself is cause to consider a move, the life here promises to be fulfilling in a much deeper sense. Not only are you close to natural beauty along with bountiful urban convenience, you’ll also find great support by staff.

Great care. Five stars.

My Mum lived in her suite for 10 years ... I highly [recommend them] at Shelbourne. All of the staff are excellent, they treat everyone just like family. I have never had a negative thing to say about anyone and the food is excellent.

Tapestry is truly a 65+ community that I haven't seen before. There are regular fun events and activities organized by friendly staff, an excellent restaurant and a bright inviting common area. Honestly, I really can't get over how great their food was, the halibut burger and salmon nicoise salad were amazing and reasonably priced. If the restaurant were available to the public it would be one of the best in Victoria.

When the move happened they were a huge help. Quite a few people here have gone through [being widowed], and everybody freely talks about that and that helps make it really simple to transition. It’s probably one of the best moves I’ve ever made…All the people are great. Move in and you’ll make lots of friends.

We have been looking for a place for my Mother, who in the past has been very active and social, however since my father passed, she has been struggling to find her new self. I found out about Tapestry through a friend and I decided to book a tour. Prior to the tour my Mother had concerns about being in a retirement community because in her day, all the residents did was sit around and play cards. I am thrilled to say, that is not the case at Tapestry! When we entered the lobby, we were very impressed with the décor and the greeting we received. The sales manager showed us the suites and also gave us the full run down on activities and let us know that there is a never ending calendar of events. We were delighted to find seniors in her age group, that are looking to be active, socialize and get the best out of life.
