Our SUITES.
Because you deserve the suite life.
Beautiful. Spacious. Convenient. Safe.
When we design our suites, we take out time to think about what is most important to our Community Members. For example, our spacious suites include walk-in closets because we appreciate how important storage is when moving from a larger home. Our kitchenettes feature 23" wide apartment size appliances instead of smaller bar-fridge models because we know that sometimes you just want to prepare a snack for the grandkids instead of heading over to the dining room. Our bathrooms feature a walk-in shower with a built-in seat and safety bars so you can bathe with ease.
All suites include the following:
Seasonal personal control of heating and air conditioning
Kitchenette with 23" wide apartment size appliances and microwave (Independent Living suites only)
Private bathroom with sit-in shower and safety bars
Spacious walk-in closet
Large windows with window treatments included
Broadloom in the living room and bedroom

My parents have been living at VIVA Pickering for 2 years. They absolutely love it. They feel like they’re part of a community. They have made friends with other community... read more members and staff as well. It’s the best decision they’ve made.

A few days ago I was offered a Lamb meal which was prepared by the Culinary staff members of Viva Pickering Retirement Community.
Generally speaking, I'm not a very foody... read more or greedy person, but man, that Lamb meal was so flavorful and nicely prepared, I was forced to ask for a second serving.
Angel, your food is always nicely prepared, but wow, that Lamb was one level above excellent. After eating that meal, I'm pleased to report that I was truly served a meal prepared by an Angle. Thanks for all that you do Angle. Huge thank you and Congratulations to you and your entire team.
