Palms of Lake Spivey

The Palms at Lake Spivey was a beautiful facility. I was very large and very beautiful. It is a newer facility and is nicely maintained. The rooms that I visited are very large and spacious and provide lots of room to move about. They all had built in kitchens and also decorated their rooms any way they liked. The freedom that the people where able to enjoy really made going there an enjoyable experience. I think that a amenity that most of the people there seemed to enjoy was the activity center where large numbers of residents gathered to play bingo and spend time together. They also many other amenities almost to many to list here. I also think that one thing the people enjoyed was the activities that are always going on and allow and encourage involvement by the guests. I would absolutely recommend the facility to anyone who is looking or is planning to go to one soon.

This place was nice. They have spacious apartments and you can get a chance to choose apartments based on your financial range. You have an option for furnished or unfurnished rooms. But the only thing I don’t like about it, is when you choose the unfurnished room, you will likely need to put furniture there for you to use. And in the long run, they get to keep it. They should have put at least a minimum amount of furniture in these rooms, wherein they are ready to go for their residents to use. But generally, it is a good place at a good price

The Palms is a large massive community of warm, happy alive retirees that seem to have the formula of living life to the fullest. The staff is well trained and is attentive to every need of the residents. There are 1 and 2 Bed room floor plans. The apartments are beautiful and well decorated. There is a full Olympic size pool, private BBQ areas and a large public one, There is a full size 30 seat Movie theater with a old fashion Pop Corn Machine, They offer Bridge and Poker Tournaments, Arts and Crafts, Book Clubs, Intergenerational programs and much more. There is no room to be isolated or board here. There is full dinner service daily so if you do not feel like cooking dinner you can come on down to the dining hall and let the staff do all the work. The menu is posted and seems to have amazing healthy options. Internet cafe and tutoring is also available. There is nothing they have not thought of here. There is 24 hour security and staff is available also around the clock for all your loved ones needs. The facility offers Assisted and Independent living. I highly recommend this facility.

The facility is very clean and feels like an apartment. They have a mixture of assisted living and living that is less than fully assisted, where nurses are available if necessary but not on hand around the clock in the apartment. Because of this mixture, the facility feels very lively and active. They have an on site cafeteria with high quality service and good food, and the caretakers remember family member's names. It's a very nice facility.

this is one of the facilities i volunteered for three my church. i volunteered three days straight and observed many things. the employees were friendly and very professional. i saw an employee reading and sharing her family photo album with one of the seniors. i myself talked with a few seniors and observed rooms that were clean and very neat. soon as breakfast, dinner, or lunch was over there were staff there immediately emptying trash and cleaning trays. many of the seniors were also in the swimming pool which had 3 lifeguards and employees keeping a watch to make sure everything was safe,not only that but i saw some seniors were doing aerobics also.

One of my relatives lives in this facility, and I visit occasionally (every few months). I like many aspects of The Palms -- the people are nice, the staff is exceptional and really seems to care about the residents. The one huge drawback though (which explains my 3-star rating) is the food. It is terrible. The quality is very low (never a nice steak) and the food is not prepared well.
