of Wellness

At Plymouth Harbor, wellness is defined by continuing broad interests and a healthy lifestyle for an active mind and body. Our new 10,000 square foot wellness center engages both equally.

Here you will find a rich myriad of activities surrounded by spectacular views of Sarasota Bay. Start your day with a workout in the fitness center, a soothing Tai Chi class or a dip in the pool. Maybe you prefer the creative outlet of our woodworking shop or art studio.

Join in on a game of bocce or a sit in on an educational lecture.

There is so much to choose from, the possibilities are endless. And it is not just a possibility, but everyday life here at Plymouth Harbor.

Once you see Plymouth Harbor and meet the vibrant people who call it home, you will change the way you think about your future.

Residents treasure the time they spend in their lovely, spacious apartment homes – yet appreciate all of the thoughtful services and amenities that are part of the Plymouth Harbor lifestyle. And they love the beautiful setting that looks like a first-class resort, but feels just like home.

Come see for yourself – and get a new perspective on retirement living. Call us today for a tour of our award-winning campus, our new wellness center, luxury accommodations and amenities.

Call 487-7160.

Trying to stay cool inside this summer? Head inside the theater at the FSU Center for Performing Arts, 5555 N. Tamiami Trail, to enjoy one of Banyan Theatre Co.’s summer shows — but don't expect light and airy musicals.

In the past, the general consensus was that Sarasota’s summer audiences were as non-existent as summer productions and that theater of a more serious nature would never survive. But in its 14th season, Banyan leads the way in the summer theater scene. Call 3512808.
