Whether it's playing cards or enjoying happy hour, the dynamic and engaging environment ensures that every resident can find activities and social opportunities that enrich their lives, making every day feel like a vacation. Manrique explains that every aspect of life at Cresswind was designed to foster togetherness as well as promote good well-being for every resident. “The more active we are, both physically and mentally, the better,” says Manrique.
“We have so many different clubs that are resident-inspired. It builds that social network and creates that feeling of belonging.” With so many clubs and activities, both indoor and outdoor, and plenty of social and entertainment opportunities, Manrique wants every resident to feel excited, not limited, by getting older and enjoy the sweeter side of retirement life.
