GL Homes has launched an innovative 'Stay & Play' program for its Valencia communities, designed to give potential buyers a firsthand look at the 55+ lifestyle. This initiative allows individuals to immerse themselves in the community's amenities and atmosphere, offering a comprehensive preview of life in these luxury developments. Available at three premier Florida locations, the program invites potential buyers to enjoy a 3-day, 2-night stay for $99 in a fully furnished home, complete with VIP access to amenities, a personal tour of model homes, and a complimentary lunch.
The Valencia communities, located in Port St. Lucie, Naples, and Boynton Beach, cater to a range of preferences and budgets with home prices from the $400s to over $1M. Recognized by US News & World Report among the 'Top Places to Retire' in the US, these communities reflect the Ezratti family's dedication to creating desirable living spaces for retirees. Significant expansions are underway, including at the Valencia Riverland location, where the Sports and Fitness Complex is growing to 24 acres, adding more pickleball, bocce, and tennis courts, emphasizing the community's focus on active lifestyles.
Further enhancements include the expansion of the Valencia Parc Wellness & Fitness Center, with new buildings adding a 12,000 sq. ft. fitness facility and a 6,000 sq. ft. cafe. These improvements underscore GL Homes' commitment to meeting the evolving needs of its residents. The 'Stay & Play' program not only showcases these amenities but also represents a shift in marketing luxury home communities, offering a 'try before you buy' experience that may influence industry standards.
As the baby boomer population ages, the demand for high-quality 55+ communities is growing. GL Homes' program helps potential buyers make informed decisions while demonstrating the company's confidence in its communities. With a 45-year history and under the leadership of Misha Ezratti, GL Homes continues to innovate in the luxury home market, maintaining its position as a leading developer of 55+ communities in Florida.
