Our Perspective

How we see Chartwell Oakville Retirement Residence

Chartwell Oakville Retirement Residence is an ultra-modern retirement residence, facing onto expansive parkland in upscale Oakville, near bountiful local shopping that includes restaurants, shops, grocery stores, banks, and other retailers. It’s a wonderful instance of five-star senior living from a company that knows how to make a strong impression from first to last. Step into the door and you're greeted with a soaring, expansive main floor lounge. Features like that impress, but Chartwell Oakville also offers families and seniors much deeper value than that.

This building’s wonderfully contemporary construction is still new. (We love the stonework in the lounge areas.) Spaciousness is a hallmark of all the rooms and amenities here. That includes the pub/bistro, the billiards and games room, the exercise room, the dining lounge, and more. Everything about the building is open concept and top end. The wood and glass doors between the rooms are another touch of elegance. It rightfully boasts that suites here are the largest in the city. They are impressive, suitably tastefully furnished. It makes a wonderful private place to be when you’re not taking part in the many activities.

Staff works with residents to build a lively, friendly community. When you watch them interacting with seniors, it’s obvious that they enjoy what they’re doing. This joy carries over into excellent care and pleasant service for those in their care. Seniors here are engaged and comfortable. Happiness and contentment might seem like overused words, but they should never be taken for granted, perhaps especially as you age. They’re apparent in residents at Chartwell Oakville.

It’s nice. It’s luxurious. When you’re surrounded by elegance like the building and amenities here you can’t help but feel great. And when people feel good, they share that with others, creating a happy, helpful community that feels like home—a wonderful home.

Reviews of Chartwell Oakville Retirement Residence

What residents and their loved ones say about Chartwell Oakville Retirement Residence in reviews.

Catherine Mulvale, family member

"My Mom moved into a beautiful and bright one bedroom suite as an able bodied 86-year-old nearly four years ago. As time went by, she developed vascular dementia that impacted her cognitive and physical abilities. As she required more care, the staff -- from the nurses to the cleaners, from the program coordinators to the CEO -- at Chartwell Oakville adjusted their interactions to match her needs -- they were ALL fabulous at every stage. We always felt she was safe and happy. We were so thankful ..."

F&S Tiraborrelli, family member

"Mum moved this month to Chartwell Oakville Residence. I cannot say enough about the excellent welcome from staff to help with mum’s transition. First night, we had dinner with mum and the selection and quality of the meals were exceptional. On move in, the unit was spotless and in perfect condition. Especially want to thank Helen and Karrie for guiding us through this emotional move as a family. 10/10 on the entire journey and mum is looking forward to her new home, making new friends and enjo..."

Marcia Jones, family member

"My Mum moved in as a permanent resident last week after being on a respite earlier in the year. Her welcome 'back' was incredible; knowing her interests they already had Mum signed up for outings, organised her daily routine and ensured everything was as she liked it! The staff are so helpful and friendly. They made the move super easy. I've met several of the other residents, Mum's friends, and they are all cheerful. This is a place everyone is included. "
