FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Vitality Living Expands into Windermere with New Management Partnership with Clarion Partners
High-performing community transitions from Sonata to Vitality Living Windermere
Brentwood, TN — Vitality Living is continuing its strategic growth with the addition of a high-performing senior living community in Windermere, Florida. Formerly Sonata at Windermere, the community will now operate as Vitality Living Windermere, marking the start of a new management partnership with Clarion Partners.
This transition is less about reinvention and more about alignment — bringing together an established, in-demand community with an operating partner focused on strengthening what already works.
“This is a community that has built something meaningful, a strong team, a full census, and a culture that residents and families trust,” said Chris Guay, CEO of Vitality Living. “Our role is to step in thoughtfully, support that foundation, and introduce the kind of enhancements that make a good community even stronger.”
Building on an Already Strong Community
Vitality Living Windermere enters this next chapter from a position many communities strive for — full occupancy, an active waitlist, and a leadership team that has created consistency and trust over time.
The transition to Vitality Living management is designed to be seamless for residents and families, while introducing additional support, resources, and programming behind the scenes.
The community offers assisted living and memory care services, with a focus on personalized care, daily engagement, and meaningful connection. As part of the transition, residents will also benefit from Vivid Life®, Vitality Living’s signature program centered on physical, cognitive, and social well-being.
A Measured Approach to Growth
For Vitality Living, this addition reflects a broader strategy of growing through partnerships where there is alignment on quality, culture, and long-term vision.
“We’re intentional about the communities we take on,” Guay added. “When there’s a strong team and a strong culture already in place, that’s where we can do our best work.”
