Aster Gardens is where active seniors thrive. We are an innovative seniors’ living community built to promote active lifestyles and meet our residents' specific tastes and needs.
Entertaining guests, engaging with the community, or booking tee times and restaurant reservations with our concierge is easy at Aster Gardens: Designed with you in mind.
At Optima Living, home is found in the moments we share. A Taste of Togetherness brings our communities to life through the familiar comfort of food, conversation, and connection. From laughter over coffee to meals shared around the table, these everyday moments create a true sense of belonging.
Join us for our Spring Open House on Saturday, April 18, from 1 - 4 pm and experience a community where warmth is felt, friendships grow, and every welcome feels genuine. Discover senior living that truly feels like home.
Enjoy a cruise-inspired experience where Aster Gardens becomes the destination. We’re bringing global flavours, culture, and connection to our communities, starting with the laid-back spirit of Hawaii on March 13 at 12:30 PM, followed by the timeless beauty of Greece on March 27 at 5:30 PM.
Contact Aster Gardens today to learn more about our upcoming Passport to Paradise experience and how you can be part of the journey. Discover the world with us, one destination at a time.
The Spark - Memory Living Program is designed to meet the needs of people experiencing dementia. Our resident-centred approach isn’t simply having a place to live; rather, it’s about creating a place to call home where your loved one can thrive in this next season of life.
