The Renaissance is an independent retirement residence nestled in the scenic community of Esquimalt. We provide peace of mind and the comforts of home, making it easy to enjoy a happy and fulfilling life.

Our senior living community is designed to help all of our residents enjoy an independent lifestyle. All the residents of our community have access to beautiful balconies and spacious suites that they can make their own. We handle cooking and cleaning; all you need to do is transform your suite into a home.
Our spacious, self-contained suites feature full kitchens, offering all the conveniences of home. With chef-prepared meals served in our elegant dining room, living at the Renaissance is a first-class experience. Plus, our customized weekly housekeeping ensures you feel like you’re on vacation. For over 25 years, we’ve been dedicated to providing Victoria’s seniors with the best independent living experience, and we look forward to continuing this tradition for years to come.

We have studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom suites available. The fee for our suites includes:

We pride ourselves on crafting a dining experience that stands apart for its quality and care. All of our dinners are created by our longtime chef, Hernando. Each meal starts with a freshly made soup or salad. That meal is followed by a main course - our residents have two options to choose from every meal. Be sure to leave room for dessert, with options ranging from pastries to custards every day. We also offer our à la carte menu for dinner, which offers personalized dining with fresh, flavorful dishes. If tonight’s entrées don’t appeal, order from the a la carte menu, which offers additional dining options.
Chef Hernando is pleased to offer lunch to residents as well; daily lunch can be included in your rental fee for an additional $250 a month. You can also drop in for lunch for $14.
Each year, we also host 12 special dinners where Chef Hernando brings out his greatest creations - new and extraordinary cuisine specifically paired with wines that enhance the flavours of the meal.
Want to enjoy your meal in your suite? We offer tray service for $5.
Feel free to invite friends and family to dine with you for a fee!
