Our Perspective

stories

Numerous aspects of Arabella Retirement Living in Belleville are remarkable, but the standout for us is the luxurious suites that will form the center of the lifestyle change you’ll go through here. The fully contemporary designs are spectacular, noteworthy for the wonderful views of the Lake. Belleville seniors and their families should be excited for this wonderfully conceived project.

Opened in 2020, Arabella brings together all that is excellent about contemporary senior care and retirement living. This community is built and run by a local, family-owned-and-operated company, meaning that there's a personal touch to service here and a local feel to the building. There’s a palpable commitment to quality, and to the comfort and care of Belleville area seniors.

The vision here is to create a community-centered lifestyle focused on excellence, including the finest in dining, luxurious amenities, combined with the beauty of the local scenery. Of course, there will also be care available if needed. The availability of care, tailored to your needs, is the right answer for couples where one spouse requires some personal assistance. It’s also an ideal solution for downsizing GTA seniors who want to be closer to family in eastern Ontario.

Insider Perspectives

Reviews of Arabella Retirement Living

Dwight Brown, family member
"My mother has raved about the meals every time we have spoken. Especially with her being a good cook and a rather picky eater, this is a testament to the Arabella menu and chefs. Whenever I visit her, it brings me joy to see her being so well taken care of; with all the activities offered, especially the swimming pool. "

K. P., family member
"My mother moved here two months ago. The entire experience and transition into retirement living has been exceptional thanks to the team at Arabella. She loves it here, raves about how good the food is whenever we talk."

Mark Hall, family member
"I toured Arabella after a close family member had made a difficult decision that they needed to downsize. What a well thought out and complete facility with excellent programming already in place and fantastic views unlike any other option available in Belleville. We spoke with a couple of people that are already living there and they had great things to say about Arabella life. The staff that we met were very genuine and despite the facility being new, their experience came shining through. Top..."
