Building on a history of excellence to create the most supportive and dignified retirement experience in Southwest Florida.
Aviva Senior Living was founded by a group of extraordinary individuals. They opened Kobernick House for independent living in 1993. They believed a community could do more and be more for older Sarasota area residents by providing a community where seniors could live extraordinary lives by embracing wellness, life-enriching activities, illness prevention, and dynamic social interaction, built on a foundation of Jewish values.
Benderson Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation was built in 2011.
The founding vision remains at the heart of everything we do and everything we offer here at Aviva. With a warm and inspiring community, we continually pursue new ways to give seniors more of what they want and what they deserve out of an active aging lifestyle.
Universal and timeless values such as compassion, unity, and celebrating life are built into the very foundation of our community. We believe that by building our community on these values, Aviva will forever be the warm and welcoming place for everyone, as our founders conceived.
For over 30 years, Aviva has enriched the lives of seniors and our greater Sarasota community. The promise lives on and will do so for many decades to come.
