Ovelia

Ovelia operates "résidences services seniors" across France: independent and semi-independent apartments (studios to three-room units) rented with a rent that includes charges and basic services. Included services listed on the website are a pool or spa area, fitness room, daily activities, 24/7 on-site staff, security, a shuttle for organised outings and a laundry room. Optional services include restaurant meals, housekeeping, ironing, beauty salon, teleassistance and minor repairs.

Its customers are retirees who rent apartments in its residences, either for long stays or temporary stays, and their families. Revenue comes from rent and service fees paid by residents; the website states monthly prices starting from a few hundred euros for listed residences. The company describes itself as a subsidiary of VINCI Immobilier and as a mission-driven company (société à mission), the first in the senior residence sector to adopt that status.

Ovelia was founded in 2010, is headquartered in Nanterre and presents residences in cities including Bourg-en-Bresse, Valenciennes, Ermont, Toulouse, Saint-Étienne and Rennes. The website is published in French.
