Colony Cove is a senior living community for people over 55, sitting on a bluff with clear views of the Pacific Ocean and sunsets over Catalina, and you'll find homes here that can be condos, townhomes, or single-family houses, some with ocean or canyon views. The community is part of San Clemente and has names like Colony Cove, Colony at Forster, Surf Ghetto, and Central San Clemente, plus connections to Broadmoor, Greentree Properties, RE/MAX Terrasol, Keller Williams OC Coastal Realty, and Listed Simply, and there are luxury homes with custom finishes, modern coastal looks, and outdoor spaces for relaxing or gathering with family, many showing features like an updated kitchen, outdoor shower, spa, fire pit, and even a garage that can turn into a hangout space or office. Residents can get daily support for assisted living, memory care, independent living, and there's skilled nursing and respite care, and the buildings are often one story, built around the 1960s, with attached garages, attics for storage, forced air heating, air conditioning in living and dining areas, tile and wood floors, upgraded countertops and cabinets, and a fireplace for comfort.
The community has a Homeowners Association that takes care of maintenance, so residents are free to enjoy the walking paths, greenbelts, landscaped gardens, and regular programs like scheduled activities, movie nights, fitness and wellness classes, and social events, using spaces such as an Activity Center, Secure Memory Care Wing, Wellness Room, Spa/Sauna, activity rooms, library, movie theater, and game room, while others might gather in the lounge or community dining room, where all-day dining, restaurant-style meals, and special diets, including those for people with diabetes or food allergies, are available. Everyone gets access to amenities like private bathrooms, Wi-Fi, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, telephone, and standard furnishings, and support services range from help with bathing, dressing, and medication, to housekeeping, laundry, move-in help, concierge, and family support, with 24-hour staff, a response system for emergencies, and secure areas for memory care.
For those who are looking to buy a home instead of care services, there's a way to see new listings quicker than other sites, detailed showcases with photos, searchable options with advanced MLS tools, ways to save favorites, get daily email alerts for new homes, and even features for quick offers and market reports with MLS data. The homes are often on large lots and can fit people who want to stay independent or need different care types over time, since the community includes board and care homes as well as continuing care services. Residents can walk to beaches or shops in the area, use transportation and parking from the community, or simply spend time on-site in accessible apartments made for privacy and social time, with the peace of mind from a maintenance-free lifestyle, resort-style amenities, and help when needed. Colony Cove gives people a place to enjoy the coastal setting, whether they want to be active and independent or need more regular care, and the community stands out for its focus on both the well-being and daily comfort of older adults.
