Ardilente Las Vegas Review and Comparisons
Reviews – Pros and cons for Ardiente include the following, in my opinion: The commute to the center of the strip/airport area is fairly easy with close access to the I-15. Ardiente does not have any Land Improvement Assessment fees. This is a small guard gated community so it should be good security-wise with an officer roaming the neighborhood as well. Ardiente promotional material puts it as a “lock-and-leave lifestyle perfect for age-qualified residents”. On the con side, it is not part of a master-planned community and as such it will be surrounded by subdivisions without the protections and amenities usually associated with master plans. Homeowner Association fees may be a little higher than most of the other new options in age-restricted, in that it will be guard-gated. All common area amenities were finished by the original builder, Centex.
The community center at Ardiente is a real jewel. It seems more than adequate for the size of the community and has a real country club feel to it. For veterans, there is a new Nevada Veteran’s Administration Medical Center being constructed 1 1/2 miles from Ardiente. This will include a hospital, outpatient clinic, and long-term care facility. There is also a 55,000 sq. ft. commissary at Nellis Air Force Base 3 miles to the east.
