Cypress Cove

What Cypress Cove does

Cypress Cove is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) Life Plan Community (Continuing Care Retirement Community) operating on a 60-acre campus in Fort Myers, Florida, adjacent to HealthPark Medical Center. Founded in 1998 and opened on April 5, 1999, the community delivers the full continuum of senior living and care on a single campus, including independent living apartments (The Harbour), detached villa homes (The Villas), luxury independent living (The Oaks), pre-construction residences (Harbour Vue, 60 units), assisted living (The Inn, 44 units), memory care (The Cottage), Medicare-certified skilled nursing (The Lodge, 64 private rooms), and a 3,500-square-foot rehabilitation center (The Mead Therapy Center). The offering is supplemented by Cypress at Home, an in-house medical clinic providing primary care and urgent health services, alongside an eight-dimension wellness program ('The Good Life'), multiple dining venues, and a Home Sale Program delivered through Moving Station.

The technology stack centers on voice-enabled smart-home automation integrated into residences, electronic medical records, telehealth services, and clinical specialty hardware including Biodex balance systems, MATRIX strength training, NuStep T6MAX, and OmniVR virtual reality for therapy. The Cottage uses the It's Never Too Late (IN2L) interactive system for dementia engagement. There is no disclosed proprietary AI or data platform; capacity utilization is supported by Matterport 3D virtual tours for prospective residents and a MoneyGauge financial assessment tool for contract selection.

Revenue is generated through a combination of one-time entrance fees, recurring monthly service fees covering housing, dining, utilities, housekeeping, transportation, and wellness programming, and daily healthcare rates for higher-acuity services ($294/day Assisted Living, $328/day Memory Care, $483/day Skilled Nursing). Three contract structures are offered: Life Care Plan (full coverage), Modified Care Plan (reduced entrance fee with limited skilled nursing), and Fee-For-Service. The go-to-market is direct-sales led with retirement counselors, virtual tours, an active social media presence, healthcare provider referrals from HealthPark Medical Center, and recent pre-sale marketing for the Harbour Vue expansion. The customer base is individual seniors and their families in Southwest Florida seeking luxury retirement living with guaranteed future healthcare access.
