As the demand for high-quality senior living continues to grow throughout the Bay Area, families are increasingly seeking communities that balance lifestyle, comfort, safety, and exceptional care. With the upcoming opening of Valora Senior Living in Campell, older adults and their families will soon have access to a modern, purpose-built community designed around dignity, independence, and personal connection. Scheduled to welcome residents in the first quarter of 2026, Valora promises to bring something fresh to the senior living landscape—combining a boutique feel with the strength of an experienced, family-focused management company.
At a time when many senior communities can feel corporate or detached, Valora aims to be different. Backed by Cal Management, a small, family-rooted senior living operator with a deep commitment to care and community, Valora is being designed from the ground up to honor the needs, preferences, and values of today’s older adults. For families exploring options or planning ahead, understanding what Valora offers can provide clarity—and perhaps even peace of mind—as they navigate this significant transition.
A Prime Campbell Location Designed for Connection and Convenience
Valora Senior Living is located on Bascom Avenue, near Dry Creek and less than half a mile from The Pruneyard—a beloved South Bay destination filled with restaurants, cafés, shops, and walkable amenities. For many seniors, proximity to familiar neighborhoods, medical services, and family members is a major factor in choosing where to live. Valora places residents at the center of an active, accessible part of Campbell while still offering the peace, comfort, and retreat of a dedicated senior community.
Whether residents want to enjoy a casual lunch with family, visit nearby retail, or simply be part of a thriving neighborhood, Valora’s location is poised to deliver everyday convenience and lifestyle appeal.
Thoughtfully Designed Apartments for Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care
With 83 apartments planned, Valora is intentionally sized to be approachable and comfortable—not too large, not too small. This allows the community to feel intimate while still offering a full suite of amenities, programs, and care options.
Valora will offer:
- Independent Living
- Assisted Living
- Memory Care (approximately one-third of all apartments)
The community’s memory care neighborhood will provide a secure, structured environment designed for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Families often struggle to find memory care options that are both clinically strong and emotionally supportive, and Valora aims to meet this need with a thoughtful design, specialized programming, and a care team that understands the complexities of cognitive changes.
While final floor plans will be released during hard hat tours and informational events, prospective residents can expect a variety of apartment layouts tailored to different lifestyles and levels of support.

One of the most compelling aspects of Valora is its connection to Cal Management, the same family-owned operator behind The Porter at Soquel and other respected communities. Unlike larger national corporations—where layers of bureaucracy can lead to inconsistency or impersonal care—Cal Management takes a personal, hands-on approach.
Colleen Garman, Corporate Regional Sales Director, emphasizes that care and community are the company’s top two priorities, and those values influence every decision made at Valora. This philosophy began with Atlanta Reyes, mother of CEO Jason Reyes, whose passion for resident care shaped the company’s mission. Atlanta believed that care should never be compromised, and her belief inspired the values Cal Management is known for today.
Many families entering senior living for the first time worry about the quality of care their loved one will receive. They may have heard stories—or even experienced firsthand—the challenges that occur when staffing, leadership, or culture are not aligned with the needs of residents. Valora’s team is committed to ensuring that this is never the case. With experienced leadership, a strong operational foundation, and a genuine dedication to resident wellbeing, the atmosphere within the community is expected to reflect these values from day one.
Elevated Amenities That Support a Vibrant, Engaged Lifestyle
Senior living today is about far more than safety and support—it’s about lifestyle. Residents aren’t just looking for a place to live; they’re looking for a community that enhances their quality of life. Valora aligns with this philosophy by offering amenities designed to make every day enjoyable and fulfilling.
Residents can expect:
- All-day dining featuring chef-prepared meals
- A bistro for casual snacks, drinks, and socializing
- Housekeeping and maintenance services
- A full activities and life-enrichment program
- Wellness opportunities designed to support body and mind
These amenities aren’t just about convenience—they play a vital role in keeping residents socially connected and mentally stimulated. Loneliness and isolation remain some of the biggest contributors to cognitive and physical decline among older adults. Communities like Valora are intentionally designed to counter those risks with opportunities for connection, creativity, and engagement.
Residents will enjoy chef-prepared meals that prioritize nutrition and pleasure, ensuring healthy eating habits without the work of cooking. All-day dining means flexibility—meals are available throughout the day rather than restricted to narrow mealtime windows. For seniors who value autonomy, this freedom aligns with their existing lifestyle rather than disrupting it.
The bistro offers an inviting space for gathering with neighbors or visiting with family. Whether someone wants a morning coffee, an afternoon snack, or a casual conversation, it serves as a social hub within the community.

Valora is aligned with Cal Management’s broader mission of creating communities where residents feel known, supported, and respected. One key advantage of the company’s small size is the ability of leadership to stay closely connected to each property. Team members are carefully selected not just for skill, but for heart—ensuring that residents interact with people who genuinely care about their comfort and happiness.
Because Colleen and her team have worked together for many years, there is already a strong foundation of trust and communication. Experienced leadership teams are invaluable in senior living, where proactive decision-making and compassionate responses to evolving needs can make all the difference.
Families touring Valora can expect to meet leaders who take their time, listen closely, and understand the emotional weight of choosing a senior living community. This is not a place where residents become “just another number”—it is designed to feel like a true home.
Introducing Club Valora: Exclusive Benefits for Early Depositors
As with most new senior living communities, Valora is offering incentives for those who reserve early through Club Valora, a special program for the first 25 depositors. Early deposit programs are incredibly valuable for seniors who want first choice of apartment location, floor plan, and features.
Club Valora benefits include:
- Priority apartment selection
- Complimentary guest meals
- Credits toward moving expenses
- Exclusive discounts off monthly rent
- A personalized recognition plaque
- Invitations to hard-hat tours and VIP events
Colleen notes that some prospective residents are signing up simply for the plaque—a charming reminder that people appreciate personal touches and the pride of being early members of a new community.
While the incentives are compelling, the real value lies in the opportunity to begin building community before move-in day. Early depositors often form friendships at pre-opening events, easing the transition into senior living and creating familiar faces from the start.
Hard Hat Tours Begin in January
For families who want to experience the community before it officially opens, hard hat tours will begin in January. These guided walkthroughs offer a unique behind-the-scenes preview of construction progress, layout, and design. It’s an ideal way to visualize apartment spaces, community rooms, outdoor areas, and overall atmosphere well before completion.
In addition to tours, Valora will host lunch-and-learns and wine tasting events to help future residents, adult children, and community partners learn more about the property.
