Homes were only the starting point for MOVALA. Stober Group envisioned a waterfront community where the lake, the landscape, and the Okanagan lifestyle shape everyday living, brought to life through 325 homes and roughly 16,000-square-feet of premium retail space at 3300 to 3340 Lakeshore Road in Kelowna.

That vision carries the weight of experience behind it. Stober Group has spent more than sixty years shaping communities across the Okanagan, and that history is evident in the scale and precision of MOVALA. As a mixed-use community connected to the lake, transit, and nearby amenities, it creates an uncommon opportunity for local and national businesses to flourish within one of Kelowna's most sought-after neighbourhoods.

Life at MOVALA is designed to extend well past the front door. Nearly 40,000-square-feet of resort-inspired amenities give homeowners room to unwind, entertain, work remotely, stay active, or simply spend time with family and neighbours.

For JoAnne Adamson, Director of Development, the community extends well past the individual home. "One of the things that makes MOVALA so special is that life doesn't stop at your front door," she shares. "The shared amenity spaces, the waterfront setting, and the opportunity to connect with neighbours all become part of what it means to live here."

Location plays an equally central role in that experience. Just steps from Okanagan Lake and Boyce-Gyro Beach Park, MOVALA offers residents the kind of lakeside access that shapes an entire way of living, whether that means a morning walk along the waterfront, an afternoon at the beach, or an evening spent at a nearby café or restaurant. The setting is not simply a backdrop to the homes; it becomes part of everyday life, drawing residents outward into the landscape through every season the Okanagan offers.

That balance of vision and execution has not gone unnoticed. In 2026, MOVALA received the Georgie Award for Best Multi-Family Mid/High Rise Development in British Columbia, one of the province's most respected recognitions for excellence in design, construction, and community building.

Today, MOVALA stands as a community built from concept into reality, one now shaped as much by the people who live there as by the vision that created it. Following the completion of the second and final phase last month, that story continues to grow.

For CEO Lisa Lock, the milestone confirms the project's founding intent. "From the beginning, our goal with MOVALA was to create a complete community that blends modern living, convenience, and connection to place," she says. "Seeing homeowners embrace that vision has been incredibly rewarding, and it is a privilege to welcome them home."

For Stober Group, that continued growth confirms the original premise: MOVALA's value was always measured in community, not just square footage.
