I've stayed in half a dozen retirement communities around the country. Often you have a dinner with residents. I don't think The Villages ever had that. I stayed 8-10 years ago and they gave you "Village Dollars", good as cash anywhere in The Villages. Great Deal, I recall the stay was virtually free because friends bought the extra dollars from me when I left. I stayed again in Creekside Landing, last October. They gave me a little coupon book. Not much there. I maybe used one coupon, tossed out the rest. The community is well established now and they don't need the big giveaways. No matter, staying in the homes is still a great deal at $100/nt.
