Valencia Lakes Reviews (13)
Average Rating for this Community
Our community is in a transition period as we have a fairly new board and I remain very confident that they will continue to work hard to maintain our grounds/facilites to the prestine levels that we are accustom to. Wonderful place to live!
We purchased a Villa and are very happy. We have met so many wonderful residents and they all have the same to say "how much they love living at VL". We are almost full time and cannot wait until we are. So many activities and enrichment programs available. GL Homes has a wonderful reputation and all of their employees make sure it stays that way.
everything you would want in a over 55 community. The facilities
are over the top. The residents that we have met are mostly very friendly
and willing to share the experiences in the community and the area.
We are very happy with our decision to locate here.
Moving in felt like the first day on vacation in a tropical resort. It is beautiful everywhere you look.
After two months we still feel like we are on a wonderful vacation!!
My social calendar is always full and I like having something fun to look forward to every day whether it's just a feel-good exercise class, a lazy day at the pool or something bigger like casino night or a special volunteer opportunity. The sense of community here is wonderful!
The neighbors are up beat and involved in life.
The community is wonderful and maintained always.
The clubhouse has everything, even a wonderful restaurant.
Areas outside of the community, there are many stores, shopping centers and medical facilities with 2 hospitals within range.
Enjoying my new home and community with no regrets of moving here.
