One-to-one comparison

VIVA OAKVILLE

The best and brightest of senior living goes into this community. The amenities here are dazzling, including an onsite café, pub, and other five-star features. There’s also a hairdresser and manicurist, along with a concierge to make sure all your needs are met. People who participate in brain gym really enjoy the benefits of this program. If you’re going to move somewhere new, why not make it brand new? If you're looking for the best in the GTA, imagine life in one of these bright suites with wide windows, and a completely new bath and kitchen.

DELMANOR GLEN ABBEY

Delmanor Glen Abbey is obviously ideal if you love golfing or want to settle close to family in Oakville, but there’s much more to life here! It’s rich with luxury amenities and accommodations that people in later years find an absolute treat. Popular features include The Greenhouse Potting Room, the Serenity Spa, a movie theatre, and many more. Delmanor's ambassador program helps new community members feel right at home. Residents we've spoken to enjoy Glen Abbey's gardening outside and exercise room inside, among other things to do. It's an elegant experience, in both the shared spaces and the privacy of your suite.

I took my parents for a tour of the Viva Oakville retirement residence and I must say that it was an absolutely wonderful experience dealing with the staff, as they made my parents feel really welcome. I want to especially acknowledge Shikha Bhatia and Kiran Sohal who both went out of their way to answer our questions and make my parents feel comfortable. Keep up the great work Viva Oakville!!

My Mom is one of the original Community Members at V!VA Oakville, moving in September 2019. The staff are all wonderful, friendly & caring. They're one big family. The Lifestyles Team organizes fun & interesting activities, both within the building & outings that use the V!VA bus for transportation. Chef Rob (Executive Chef) never disappoints with his 5 star rated meals. The servers in the dining room remember the special requests of the Community Members and bring them without having to be asked. (2 teabags in the teapot; what kind of tea; no crackers with soup; warm the pie; extra whip cream; etc) We just celebrated my Mom's 90th birthday and every V!VA team member that was involved went above & beyond to make her day perfect. Frank Pantusa (Culinary Services Manager) worked with us for many weeks to plan this party & shared many wonderful ideas to help make sure things ran smoothly. He ensured everything was organized & worked very hard during the party, which was greatly appreciated. The meals that Chef Rob served were prepared to perfection. The presentation & taste of our delicious meals were thoroughly enjoyed by all 31 guests. From the hors d'oeuvres to dessert, everyone's taste buds were joyous. Chef Rob was a pleasure to work with during the planning stages, sharing his suggestions & expertise. The 2 servers that worked during Mom's party were top-notch. Arlene & Maricar worked very hard, and made sure everything was perfect & smiled all evening. I live out of province & stay with Mom in her suite when I visit. I am always made to feel welcome by both Community Members & V!VA Team Members. V!VA Oakville is my Mom's (& all Community Member's) home & everyone is treated as such, which is perfect! (I've included 1 photo from our dinner. It's the dessert, Eton Mess, prepared by Chef Rob.) V!VA Oakville is more than worthy of this 5 star review. Thank you V!VA Oakville for being so wonderful.

Viva Oakville is a wonderful retirement community. The staff are friendly and always helpful. My in-laws have been very happy making Viva their home. It is always kept clean and there are lots of activities and entertainment. Suites are nicely designed and well equipped.

My parents moved in just before Covid and it was a great move. Lots of activities and great staff. Very positive experience.

When I decided it was time for me to make plans to leave my beloved home, a bungalow in Milton, I decided to start by making the rounds of all the Senior Retirement Communities in Oakville, to decide where I would like to go live. I visited pretty well all of them and discussed my findings with my family. Together we decided that the best place for me would be VIVA OAKVILLE for the following reasons: 1- Everything is new and atttractive. 2- Everyone living here looked like people I would like to be friends with. 3- There are nurses on location day and night. 4- Although expensive, they are not the most expensive. 5- They have so much going on here that the residents have something to do all the time if they wish. 6- It is great not to have to cook my own meals, and the food is really good. 7- Every resident has an emergency button they can push if they fall or need assistance. In very few words, I am thrilled that I moved here. I love it.

DELMANOR GLEN ABBEY

From the friendly and helpful reception ladies to the caring and professional nursing team, and everyone in between, the staff at the Delmanor Glen Abbey were family to my mother for over 11 years. She loved being involved with the committees, participating in the fitness and entertainment activities and also just spending quiet time in her beautiful suite. But, in the end, it was the people who made the difference, and for that we are forever grateful.

I love my suite because it's easy to get around. I wouldn't want it to be any larger. It's just the right size. Lots of room to move around, and yet everything is handy and very convenient. We [also] have a beautiful back courtyard and the Nino courtyard. It's like a large family here.

I'm very happy to be here! I love to come to the theatre here and see the movies here with my friends. The chairs are very comfortable. In the theatre there [are] not only movies but there are lectures. I also come to the church every Sunday.

In the library here, there are computers, there are books, everything you really want! When I came in and I saw the surroundings, I thought this is very, very cozy and very homey!

I love coming to the Living Well Centre [inside the community]. There's so much to do here! They have cards. They have games. And then they'll have music or they'll have a lecture. I mainly love the exercise classes. There's one pretty much every day. It gets me moving. I feel better. I'm in a better mood. I've only been here a couple months, but I noticed already that I'm walking better and I'm not as shaky as I was when I came in.
