The Virginian

Check out this fantastic feature in Virginia Living Magazine about The Virginian! A huge thanks to editor Madeline Mayhood for spending time with us and highlighting our community in this trend story. Jenna Ballard, The Virginian’s Director of Sales & Marketing, shares how modern senior living goes beyond necessities to deliver resort-style experiences, wellness programs, and gourmet dining. She said, "From luxury amenities to personalized concierge services, The Virginian is redefining retirement living." Adding that the luxe life is: “more like being on a cruise ship… it just doesn’t happen to be on the water.” ?? #TheVirginian #LuxurySeniorLiving #VirginiaLiving #RetirementRedefined
