Community Overview
About The Oaks
The Oaks is a licensed assisted living center located at 3675 South Rome Street in the Seville corridor of southern Gilbert, Arizona (ZIP 85297), operated by Stellar Senior Living, a family-owned BLLC headquartered in Utah with 43 communities across the western United States. The community holds Arizona DHS license ALC20026 (Assisted Living Center—Directed Care level) with a current licensed capacity of 142 residents and underwent a change of ownership in January 2026 when Stellar Senior Living assumed management. The facility offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care under one roof, using an age-in-place model that allows residents to receive progressively higher levels of care without relocating, unless full Memory Care security is required.
Apartments are available in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom configurations, each with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, individually controlled heating and air-conditioning, and Wi-Fi. Common amenities include a fitness center with daily exercise classes, a movie theater, beauty salon and barber shop, library, game room, outdoor patio with misters, and raised garden beds. Dining runs all day from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. under the direction of an on-site chef, with monthly resident feedback sessions. Memory care residents are served through the Apollo Program, a structured dementia-care approach built around familiar routines, music, and movement.
The Oaks sits roughly 1.9 miles from Mercy Gilbert Medical Center and about 5.9 miles from Banner Ocotillo Medical Center in Chandler, providing residents and families with accessible emergency and specialty care. The surrounding area along Pecos Road and Val Vista Drive includes retail centers, dining, and the amenities of southern Gilbert's master-planned communities. The facility is privately funded; the AZ DHS public database shows no Medicaid certification on record.
