The Bonaventure,
a Holiday Retirement
Community

The Bonaventure residents enjoy a variety of health and fitness activities, from weekly group exercise classes to anytime access to on-site fitness equipment.

With plenty of outdoor space surrounding the community, residents have the ability to take a walk outside on property on designated walking paths. Group exercise classes include a Thai Chi class.

Enjoy restaurant-style dining served with courtesy and caring by our staff who know you. Chef-prepared meals are served every day in The Bonaventure's dining room. Sit with friends or invite your family for a special occasion in our private dining room. Each meal is designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of community members.

As a new resident, the chef meets with you for a 1 on 1 meeting to discuss dietary concerns and allergies. In order to receive continuous feedback, the chef meets meets with residents on each floor on a monthly basis.

There’s so much to explore in the Ventura area and The Bonaventure makes sure that residents experience as much as possible. Regular outings to favorite restaurants, local events, and more introduce residents to all their neighborhood has to offer and connect them to the surrounding community.

The Bonaventure organizes off-site events, which include but are not limited to the Museum of Ventura County, Vita Art Center, Ventura College Performing Arts Center and whale watching excursions to the nearby Channel Islands. On Wednesdays, residents vote for their restaurant outing of the week.

The Bonaventure's comprehensive calendar is packed with both recurring activities and special events. The variety of available activities is meant to enrich the whole person by stimulating physical, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, creative, social or vocational wellness.

Watching sports is a resident favorite at The Bonventure, with sporting events playing on the activities room television almost nightly. For those with a green thumb, a garden club has recently launched. With over 150+ activities planned over the course of a month, there is no shortage of fun to be had.

Furry friends are welcomed as residents at The Bonaventure. We understand how important the companionship and bond that seniors share with their pets. We’re delighted to have cats, dogs, birds, and even bunnies as part of our community.

The Resident Experience Coordinator organizes visits from local therapy dogs to interact with residents. Residents with pets are encouraged to bring their loved ones down to socialize as well.

The Bonaventure is equipped with WiFi access to help you stay connected throughout common areas. You can use a community desktop computer to stay up to date or connect your personal devices to the WiFi.

The exclusive Travel & Stay program offers residents exciting opportunities to travel around the country, with free stays of up to seven days at any of Holiday Retirement’s more than 260 communities.

Many residents find a sense of fulfillment in donating their time and skills to a cause close to their hearts. Residents at The Bonaventure enjoy spending time with children from local schools and kids with autism, who come to do performances and singalong.

We have empowered residents to become resident ambassadors. These individuals have often lived in the community for quite some time and enjoy helping new residents get acclimated to senior living. They encourage new residents to take their time settling in and them feel comfortable in their new home.
