Vi Senior Living, a developer and manger of retirement communities in La Jolla, Palo Alto and Hilton Head, caters to affluent retirees. Greg Sieman, the company’s vice president of marketing, describes the retirement communities as being “a luxury hotel and country club rolled into one that offers long term care, should the need arise.”

“Vi residents are people who have had successful careers,” explains Sieman. “We have anyone from entrepreneurs who started their own business to CEOs and high level government officials.” Sieman says that the homes appeal to seniors who want to keep up their high standards of living and continue to live in a beautifully designed home, but don’t want to be tending their lawns or worrying about their roof, not mention the all-important long-term care, if needed.

A big part of Vi’s lifestyle is the amenities, which are more like continuing education in the form of field trips, discussions and classes.

Call it a “lock and leave” lifestyle that appeals to the one percent.

The Residences at Turner Hill in Ipswich, Mass. is a new development with 50 existing homes and 43 in the pipeline (16 will be completed this summer). Prices start at $1,020,000, and the homes are set on 300 acres that includes a championship golf course and an Elizabethan mansion.

Although it is not an age-restricted community, Brad Horner, executive managing director of Raveis Marketing Group, which is handling sales of the homes, says the community will appeal to high net worth retirees.

“We’re marketing Turner Hill with a very high emphasis on a carefree, active lifestyle,” says Horner. Activities will include fine and casual dining, wine lockers, tennis, swimming, yoga, Pilates and golf. Social events will be held in the mansion’s members lounge, library and study, and he points out the community’s proximity to world-class medical care in Boston and the surrounding area is also a big draw.

Here’s a look at some of the most luxurious places in the U.S. to retire in style.
