Upside Melbourne

Upside members are generally residents ages 50+ who enjoy their independence and are searching for luxury living options. Our members are seeking an alternative to traditional senior living facilities but may need some help here and there. Upside members’ families might live far away and want peace of mind that they are connected to amenities and resources. Or perhaps they are close by but raising their own families and want to know there’s always an on-call personal/care concierge who they can depend on. Upside members want to maintain their interests and possibly explore new hobbies, now that they do not have the burden of housekeeping, lawn maintenance, cooking, running errands, or even arranging travel and walking the dog. The personal/care concierge makes arrangements for all of these things. Above all, our Upside members want to enjoy their older years.

If you have a cat or dog, there are Upside homes that offer play spaces, walking paths, and even pet wash stations. If it’s pouring down rain and you don’t want to walk your dog, reach out to your Home Manager. We’ll take care of it.

Upside members can order gourmet meals to be delivered, or request grocery delivery service if they prefer to prepare their own dishes. There is no set menu, which is what our members love. And there is no meal plan schedule with monthly requirements. You choose. Plus, we can arrange for restaurant meal delivery so they can sit down to their favorites without leaving home.

Upside regularly organizes meet-up events at our apartments and in the community for members who are interested. (No pressure!) We organize group reservations to favorite local restaurants so Upside members can enjoy a meal and like-minded companionship. We get to know the interests of our members’ interests and curate activities, outings and events that cater to the way they want to spend time.

Your Home Manager can arrange for transportation for running errands, shopping, eating out, or visiting friends and family. Basically, your Home Manager acts like the “operator” for Uber and handles all the details. And because our billing is on a single, monthly invoice, all you have to think about is enjoying your time out.

Absolutely. And our members have an option to join Upside+, which adds another layer of care.

All Upside homes are staffed with on-site security, and our members have access to a Home Manager who can provide check-ins for peace of mind.
