Reviews

5 stars
Leisure World in Mesa turned out to be a hidden gem, from its stunning Superstition Mountain views to the two golf courses. My friend’s client loved the sauna and pickleball courts, which convinced me to explore the 55+ lifestyle here. The on-site wellness center is fantastic. We truly LOVE our new home!
