About Sun City Summerlin

America's Finest Active Adult Community

Sun City Summerlin is one of the most celebrated active adult communities in the United States, a landmark development by Del Webb that set the standard for 55+ living when it broke ground in 1989. Situated in the northwest corner of Las Vegas within the greater Summerlin master plan, Sun City Summerlin encompasses over 8,000 homes, four championship golf courses, and an activity infrastructure that rivals the finest resort destinations.

The community's three recreation centers, Mountain Shadows, Desert Vista, and Sun Shadows, are the beating heart of daily life in Sun City Summerlin. Together they offer indoor and outdoor pools, fitness centers, billiards rooms, computer labs, art studios, event ballrooms, and a programming calendar so full that residents joke they need to retire twice just to fit everything in. Over 100 clubs and interest groups meet regularly.

Homes in Sun City Summerlin range from compact one-bedroom patio homes to spacious three-bedroom custom layouts, all built on a single story, a hallmark of Del Webb's active adult design philosophy. Many homes back to golf course fairways or open desert, and the community's elevated position in Summerlin provides many residents with spectacular views of the valley and Red Rock Canyon.
