Marian Manor Retirement
Marian Manor Retirement occupies a mid-rise building on Marian Lane in the Northwest neighborhood of Virginia Beach, about 11.4 miles from the city center. The 145-bed community offers private rooms across three care types: assisted living, independent living, and respite care. Executive Director Ms. Karen Land leads the facility.
With 126 of 145 beds occupied, the community runs at 87% occupancy, which reflects consistent demand without the pressure of a fully waitlisted building. The neighborhood scores a 51 on the Walk Score scale, landing in the moderately walkable range; some trips on foot are practical, but a car handles most of what residents and visitors need. Transportation services are available on-site for those without their own vehicle.
Beyond transportation, the building includes fitness and recreation facilities, and a Life Enrichment program is part of the scheduled care structure. State inspections have generally focused on medication management, care planning and documentation, and fall and injury prevention as recurring areas of attention.
Marian Manor is a private-room community at a mid-size scale in Virginia Beach, covering the range from independent to assisted living and short-term respite stays, with on-site transportation and fitness amenities rounding out what the building offers day to day.
