Bay Oaks Historic Retirement Residence

Bay Oaks is a historic retirement residence in the heart of the City of Miami and just steps frm beautiful Biscayne Bay. Home to 30 seniors and a family of friends, volunteers, dedicated staff, beloved dogs, native butterflies and other wildlife, Bay Oaks is like no other assisted living residence.

Living at Bay Oaks provides residents with all the benefits of retiring in one’s one bed & breakfast, the company of new friends and the fun of new experiences.

Each resident enjoys the comfort of their own, individually appointed room, fully furnished with antiques and heritage linens, just like a fine Bed & Breakfast. With its lush gardens and tropical orchard, porch rockers and tranquil breezeways, personalized service and exceptional dining (lead by Executive Chef James F.T. Wilson), Bay Oaks provides residents with a truly exclusive senior living experience.

Bay Oaks residents are active and engaged in a variety of activities on-site and in town, including Bingo, tai chi, yoga, billiards, drawing and painting, cocktail hour, dancing, ding-a-longs, museum and theater excursions, afternoons at the beach, and lunch or dinner at local restaurants. Other community favorites include walks down to the Bay at Sunset, debating the news of the day, and walking the grounds which include our fruit orchard, rose garden, and many breezy greenways.
