Independent Living at Amira Choice Minnetonka

Make Room for What Matters

Independent Living That Fits Your Life

Living an independent, active lifestyle at Amira Choice Minnetonka means focusing your energy on what matters most to you: community, family, friends, interests and more. With the flexibility of rental living—and without the burden of home maintenance—our residents have the time and space to enjoy home and community.

Savor cooking in your own kitchen or let our talented chefs do the work at our Ridge Café and restaurant-style dining room. While we take care of home and yard maintenance (we can even handle add-on services like garbage removal, housekeeping and laundry, if you wish), you can enjoy our amenities and programming or get out and explore the area. The choice is yours.

Our pet-friendly independent senior living community in Minnetonka, Minnesota, is the perfect place to start a new and invigorating chapter of your life, where you can feel confident that support is there should you need it in the future.

Your Medicare or health insurance does not pay for senior living rent. However, it may help pay for some of the services you receive while living in our community. Some residents have long-term care insurance plans that may help reimburse them for some of the day-to-day expenses of assisted living, memory care or enhanced care.

Amira Choice Minnetonka accepts a limited number of residents receiving Medicaid covered nursing services, assistance with activities of daily living and other services. Please contact us for additional information.

If you are choosing independent living (with or without add-on services such as laundry and housekeeping), you do not need a doctor’s order to move in. If you sign up with our assisted living, memory care or enhanced care living options, you may need a doctor’s written order. This is especially true if our care team will be assisting you with your medication. When you decide to move in, our healthcare team will provide an assessment, discuss available services that may be beneficial to you and be there to coordinate with your doctor every step of the way.

Yes, you may work with any healthcare provider that you choose. You can continue to go out to your doctors’ appointments as you have been doing. There are also doctors and other healthcare teams that visit our community.
