About Venvi Hollyburn House
For nearly four decades, Venvi Hollyburn House has built its reputation on providing seniors with a fulfilling, supported lifestyle in one of British Columbia’s most beautiful communities. Located at 2095 Marine Drive in West Vancouver, this retirement home combines thoughtful care with an exceptional range of amenities, giving residents and their families genuine peace of mind.
Living Options & Care Levels
Choosing the right level of care for a parent or loved one is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and Venvi Hollyburn House offers several options to match where your loved one is today and where their needs may go in the future. Independent Living is designed for seniors who are largely self-sufficient but are ready to let go of the burdens of home ownership and daily chores. Residents enjoy their own private suite with a kitchenette, and they have full access to the community’s social life, dining, and wellness programs without the stress of maintaining a household. For seniors who need a little extra help with daily tasks such as personal care, medication support, or mobility assistance, Assisted Living provides that additional layer of support while still preserving as much independence as possible. Caregivers work alongside residents to make sure their days feel normal and dignified. If your family is navigating a recovery period after a hospital stay, or if a primary caregiver needs a short break, Respite Care offers a temporary stay in a safe, comfortable environment. It is a practical solution that many families find invaluable during times of transition.
What You’ll Love About Living Here
Day-to-day life at Venvi Hollyburn House is shaped by an impressive range of spaces and programs designed to keep residents engaged, comfortable, and connected. The dining experience is a highlight, with restaurant-style meals served in the main dining room and a café and bistro available for more casual bites throughout the day. When the occasion calls for something special, the private dining room is a lovely option for celebrating with family. Common areas throughout the building are designed to feel welcoming rather than institutional, and residents can step outside onto the terrace or wander through the beautifully maintained gardens and grounds when the weather invites it. For those who want to stay active, there is a dedicated fitness and wellness centre along with regular fitness classes. Creative pursuits are well supported through the Artful Enrichment Program, arts and crafts, and an activity room where workshops and presentations take place regularly. Residents can unwind in the library, catch a film in the on-site movie theatre, enjoy a game in the billiards and games room, or socialize over a drink in the pub and cocktail lounge. Personal care is also taken care of with an on-site spa and hair salon. Practical needs are handled too, with general housekeeping and laundry and dry cleaning services included. Residents with pets will be glad to know the community is pet friendly, and parking is available on site.
Why Residents Choose Venvi Hollyburn House
Families and residents are drawn to Venvi Hollyburn House because it brings together a broad range of care options and lifestyle amenities under one roof. The ability to start with Independent Living and transition to Assisted Living or a short-term Respite Stay as circumstances change means that residents do not have to uproot themselves if their needs evolve. The services included in daily life, from housekeeping and laundry to meals and wellness programming, reduce the practical pressures that can weigh on seniors and their families. There is also a genuine sense of community here, built over nearly 40 years of serving West Vancouver seniors. The variety of social spaces, from the lounge to the pub to the gardens, means there are always opportunities to connect with neighbours and build friendships. For families, knowing that professional support, engaging programming, and quality amenities are all in one place brings a level of reassurance that is hard to put a price on.
