If you are over 50 and thinking about your next chapter in Las Vegas, you are definitely not along. Many people reach a point where they are not quite ready to retire, but they know they want something new. Las Vegas offers an incredible mix of lifestyle, comfort, weather, activities, and housing options that fit the 50 plus stage of life. Not all of these communities are 55 and over, because many buyers want freedom and flexibility without an age restriction. In this guide, you will find five wonderful communities that should be on your radar if you are 50 plus and planning a move to Las Vegas.

This tour begins in beautiful Downtown Summerlin on a perfect fall day. It is the ideal backdrop for exploring some of the best neighborhoods for your next season of life.

1. Esplanade by Taylor Morrison

The first community on the list is one that many people are already watching closely. Esplanade by Taylor Morrison is planned for Summerlin and is expected to begin sales in 2026. The community will feature about 400 homes along with a 10,000 square foot clubhouse that includes a fitness center, restaurant, spa facilities, and a full range of amenities designed for a 50 plus lifestyle.

A unique feature of this community is that it is designed for adults but is not officially restricted to 55 and over. In other states, Taylor Morrison builds Esplanade communities specifically for active adults. In Las Vegas, this version will focus on the 50 plus lifestyle without requiring age qualification. This makes it a great option for anyone who wants a resort level community without age limits. If you are thinking about moving to Las Vegas in 2026, Esplanade should be on your list.

Every Saturday morning, the Downtown Summerlin farmers market offers fresh produce, baked goods, artisan items, and a fun community atmosphere. This is part of what makes the Summerlin area such a lively and enjoyable place to live.

2. The Loughton by Toll Brothers

Number two on the list is another highly anticipated Summerlin community. Toll Brothers is currently preparing a luxury condominium project called The Loughton, located near Red Rock Casino and close to Downtown Summerlin. This community is ideal for lock and leave living and is perfect for buyers who travel often or want a low maintenance lifestyle.

The Loughton will feature about 102 condominiums with impressive amenities. Pickleball lovers will especially enjoy it, since it will include facilities designed specifically for the sport. Floor plans range from about 800 square feet to roughly 1,300 square feet, with starting prices expected around the 500,000 range.

Although not a 55 and over community, The Loughton is an excellent fit for buyers who want a modern home, walkable surroundings, and easy access to all that Summerlin has to offer.

Fall is an especially beautiful season in Las Vegas, when the temperatures cool down and outdoor living becomes even more enjoyable. It is one of the best times of the year to explore the city and its neighborhoods.

3. Spanish Trail

Spanish Trail is one of the classic luxury golf course communities in Las Vegas. Developed in the mid 1980s, it was one of the original upscale guard gated communities in the valley. It spans more than 640 acres and includes 11 distinct neighborhoods. This area offers a wide range of homes, from properties in the mid 300,000 range to multi million dollar estates.

The community features a beautiful 27 hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones. Facilities include tennis, pickleball, a fitness center, and an outdoor heated pool that is open year round. Residents also have the option to join the private country club for additional social and golf amenities.

Spanish Trail is perfect for 50 plus buyers who want an established neighborhood with charm, mature landscaping, and strong community character. It offers the amenities of an active lifestyle without being an age restricted community.

4. Red Rock Country Club

Number four on the list is Red Rock Country Club, located in the highly sought after 89135 zip code in Summerlin. This community offers sweeping views, beautiful golf courses, guard gated security, and close proximity to hiking trails, Downtown Summerlin, and Red Rock Casino.

The community spans about 738 acres and includes two golf courses. One course is completely private and the other is semi private. Both are expected to receive significant updates following a recent purchase of the golf facilities for nearly 50 million dollars.

Red Rock Country Club is ideal for buyers who want luxury, convenience, and a strong connection to the outdoor lifestyle that Summerlin is known for. It is also a great choice for 50 plus buyers who want golf, social events, and a desert inspired setting. Homes in Red Rock Country Club can sell quickly, especially those with high end finishes, views, or updated floor plans.

5. Trilogy at Sunstone

For buyers who want a true 55 and over active adult community, Trilogy at Sunstone is one of the best options in Las Vegas. Located in the fast growing northwest area, this guard gated community offers an impressive resort style environment. The clubhouse, restaurants, activities, and social programming create a welcoming environment that feels energetic and friendly.

Trilogy at Sunstone features floor plans ranging from about 1,100 square feet to more than 2,500 square feet. Prices typically begin in the mid 400,000 range, and the community rarely has standing inventory. This speaks to its popularity and the strong demand among active adults. Trilogy communities are built by Shea Homes and are known nationwide for quality design and lifestyle amenities. Trilogy at Sunstone is the best selling Trilogy community in the country, which says a great deal about its appeal.

If you want an active adult lifestyle with events, classes, dining, and a vibrant social atmosphere, Trilogy at Sunstone should be at the top of your list.
