Good Neighbours Whitby

"Amica Whitby is our recommendation for families navigating retirement living. Premium hospitality, genuine care, and a community that truly feels like home."

Choosing a retirement residence for a parent is one of the most important decisions a family makes. It requires trust โ€” in the people, the facility, and the standard of care that will be there every day.

Amica Whitby has earned a consistent reputation for being genuinely warm, thoughtful, and well-run. Built in 2009 in a central Whitby neighbourhood close to shops, healthcare, and the waterfront, the six-storey residence offers everything from independent living to memory care โ€” all in one building, so residents can age in place.

What stands out in family feedback is how staff treat residents as people, not patients. The food is led by a Red Seal chef. There's a saltwater pool. Activities programming keeps residents engaged. When care needs change, the transition is handled with continuity and compassion. That's the Amica standard.

Moved my mother and father to Amica Whitby to be closer to us. They love their one-bedroom apartment and enjoy the balcony. They rave about the food. The staff made the arrangements and the move easy. All in all, everyone is very happy.

First and foremost, Amica Whitby is a fantastic facility who genuinely cares for their residents. To me Amica isn't a retirement home โ€” it feels more like a resort with additional care. You can really see how much thought goes into making residents feel at home.

My mom has been there a week now. They made sure she had someone to sit with at lunch right from day one. She has enjoyed activities she would never have done before. The staff are friendly, attentive, and helpful. It already feels like home.
