    Gorgeous building excellent staff expensive

    I toured and loved it - a gorgeous, spotlessly kept building with spacious, condo-style one-bedrooms (full kitchens, washer/dryer hookups) and hotel-quality amenities: theater, gym, billiards, salon, bank and on-site services. The staff are warm, professional and attentive (management lives on site, valet/concierge, great help with mobility), and the three chef-prepared meals are excellent - dining room and room service are lovely. There's a full activity calendar, frequent outings and lots of resident-led events, so it never feels dull. Downsides: it's expensive, feels a bit cruise-ship/formal rather than homey, the location is strip-mall with no real grounds or view, and meal variety can be limited. Overall I'm very happy and excited to move in.

    About Sable Lodge Retirement Community

    Sable Lodge Retirement Community sits in South Portland, Maine, where lighthouse views and harbor scenery create a calm setting for folks 55 or older who want comfort and safety as they age, and you'll notice right away that the staff and residents like to greet each other and keep things friendly. This all-inclusive, resort-style place gives seniors a chance to enjoy independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, all under one roof, with help available when needed and as care needs change. Apartments come in studio, one, two, or three-bedroom floor plans, and every unit's got climate control, window coverings, full kitchens with real appliances, cable, phone, and internet included, and there's no extra fee for pets-so furry friends are welcome, and that always brightens things up.

    Sable Lodge covers housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance, and staff and live-in managers stay on-site 24/7 with an Emergency Alert System and round-the-clock concierge services, which makes things less stressful for everyone. Folks have a lot to do, like billiards, games in the arcade, group activities, and regular outings thanks to a Lifestyle Director who creates a busy calendar full of social events, health programs, educational talks, exercise classes, and devotional services both onsite and offsite. The building's got indoor and outdoor common spaces, a three-mile greenbelt walkway with views of the harbor, a library, theater with stadium seating, spa, fitness center, lounge with a bar, beauty salon, pharmacy, and even a small bank on Main Street, so just about everything's within easy reach.

    Dining uses the Signature Freedom Dining Program, which brings chef-prepared meals three times a day with all sorts of fresh choices for different diets, and if someone isn't feeling up to joining in the dining hall, a meal delivery service brings food right to the apartment door. For people who love to travel, residents can visit other Resort Lifestyle Communities around the country without extra costs, and for folks who need more support, there's skilled nursing, assisted living, and memory care with services for Alzheimer's and dementia, so families know loved ones can stay in one place even as needs change. Utilities and most services are covered in the monthly rate, the staff focuses on giving everyone a helping hand when needed, and there's always a sense that it's easy to find a friend or something meaningful to do. Pet-friendly, maintenance-free living, and a steady schedule of things to learn and enjoy make Sable Lodge a solid choice for those seeking a safe, social, and comfortable retirement community with flexible living and care options.
