Melbourne Retirement at Watersong

Even though it just opened in May of 2009, if you want to move to Watersong, you better act fast. It’s reputation for having food that will warm your heart and pleasure the palate, a wellness program that’ll make you feel ten years younger and the simple beauty of its clubhouse and amenities, has caused Watersong to be a hotbed for seniors wanting to get away from the daily chores of living and just get on with the living!

Featuring single-family cottages, villa homes, assisted living, wellness center, rehabilitation and memory care, Watersong focuses on three things that set us apart from other senior destinations: food, fun, and wellness. Everyone needs those three things if they expect to live a long, healthy and happy life and Watersong gives all of those to our members in droves.

With special pricing still available on homes and villas, there is no better time to buy than right now.

Even though Watersong is located well beyond the designated evacuation area, we take hurricanes seriously. As a result, all buildings have been designed and built with Concrete Block Structure (CBS) and all homes come equipped with high impact doors and windows. We also have a comprehensive hurricane emergency plan in place that is approved by the Brevard County Department of Emergency Management. You'll feel comfortable and safe living at Watersong.

Independent Living in Melbourne

As you've seen throughout the website, our goal is to offer numerous opportunities and amenities that help our members live longer, healthier and happier lives. In making a decision to move to our communities, it isn’t a decision solely based around having a place to live that takes care of all the everyday chores of owning a house or property. It is a commitment to seek the best life has to offer from ages 70 to 105. 

Our independent living amenities include all the basics you'd find at most retirement communities: maintenance-free living, fun social calendar, maid service, fine dining, no utilities to pay, taxes paid, enhanced cable, security, 24-hour emergency call, transportation and an all-purpose clubhouse. But with those services, comes the amenities that make us stand out: our wellness program and partnership with Wake Forest University and our wonderful food, served via restaurant-style fine dining. 

We want you to live independently in your own home for as long as you can and we've designed our programs to make that happen.

In keeping with the philosophy of "Live Long, Live Well, Live," this affiliation will help to develop new research that will further enrich the lives of our members and seniors throughout the world.
