Local Beauty Care

The convenience of Woodlands Village's on-site beauty salon and barber means all you have to do is walk in to get your hair and nails done. Of course, appointments are available.

Our beauty care is highly personalized, and our hair and nail artists are on a first name basis with our residents and have a personal connection to every one. Outside clients are welcome in as well.

Fitness Classes

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

Exercise while enjoying time with friends during our Wednesday walking club. If you like to get up and get moving, you'll love our daily morning fitness class.

Nutritious Dining for Seniors

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

At Woodlands Village, our chef is always open to suggestions and is happy to make dishes based on resident requests. He hosts a monthly roundtable to gather feedback and menu ideas.

Local Area Activities

There's so much to explore in the Bradenton area and our 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.

You can join the "lunch bunch,” a group that goes out every Thursday to try different restaurants. It’s a great opportunity to make friends with fellow foodies!

Social Activities for Seniors

Woodlands Village'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.

Pet Friendly

Furry friends are welcomed as residents at Woodlands Village. We understand the importance of the bond seniors share with their pets. We're delighted to have cats, dogs, birds and even bunnies as part of our community.

Our residents enjoy visits from therapy animals and our community warmly embraces all pets. The community even has a duck pond and residents enjoy feeding them. We have a favorite therapy animal, Cosmo, that comes in from time to time as well.

Community Technology

Woodlands Village residents enjoy WiFi access in common areas, as well as a viewfinder for small text, and a resident desktop computer.

Community members enjoy a weekly "Tech Tuesday" program where Tim from Intelicare helps with their phones, tablets, computers, and any technology issues they might have.

Independent Senior Travel

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. Three chef-prepared meals are included with each trip. Visit all 43 states or just choose a favorite new location or two.

Woodlands Village operates its own travel program that lets residents get a taste of faraway countries. Once a month, residents can enjoy a themed happy hour with music, food, and presentations related to a new country. They also get a stamp in their community passport.

Volunteer Opportunities

At Woodlands Village, many residents find a sense of fulfillment in donating their time and skills to a cause close to their hearts.

The community enjoys volunteer group visits from Lecom Medical School and Tidewell Veterans cafe.
