Desoto Beach Club - Sky Active Living

Desoto Beach Club - Sky Active Living sits in Sarasota, FL, offering a range of care and living options for adults aged 55 and over, and this craftsman-style, three-story community provides independent and assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all in the same place so residents can stay even as their needs change. Managed by Priority Life Care and led by Director of Sales and Marketing Angie Addleman, this community focuses on helping seniors stay as self-sufficient as possible, while getting support when they need it. The apartments come in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom sizes from 379 to 1,056 square feet, each with large windows for natural light, private bathrooms, and personal heating and cooling systems, and the interiors have a neutral color scheme to help residents feel at home and add their own touches. Residents eat three chef-prepared meals every day in a restaurant-style dining room, with options for special diets and made-to-order entrées, plus a private dining room for personal celebrations. There's a library for reading, a game room, and an elegant atrium with leather furniture, and the bistro makes it easy to grab coffee and visit with neighbors. The activity room and Life Enrichment Center host daily things like fitness classes-such as yoga, walking clubs, and aerobics-along with book clubs, trivia, arts like music and drawing, and programs to support self-care and reflection. Out in the courtyard, folks sit and enjoy the weather, walk the scenic paths, or join social activities, and outings to local shops or restaurants are offered often. For assisted living, trained staff help with things like bathing, dressing, and medicines, and memory care provides a safe, supportive area for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, with care plans and activities built for their needs. The building has garage parking, covered spaces, onsite laundry, weekly housekeeping and linens service, a salon and spa, and a concierge desk for help and a warm welcome. Residents can join fitness and recreation groups and use the exercise room with equipment for strength and cardio. The grounds are tidy, with lawn and landscaping taken care of by staff, and the setting overall is focused on comfort, familiarity, and a sense of safety. Residents can enjoy as much privacy or social activity as they like, and the community encourages friendships, both in planned groups and in casual conversations around the common areas, which helps everyone feel they belong.
