Assisted Living Communities in Niceville, FL

"I toured Brookdale Fort Walton Beach's assisted living and it was good. They've got both studio apartments and 1-bedroom ones. I think they even have 2-bedroom ones too. The staff seemed perfectly fine and the overall facility looked pretty nice."

"Sodalis Defuniak Springs is a wonderful place. The people were very nice. All the things that they offered were very nice. The apartments were very good. They're unfurnished, so you have to furnish them yourself. They supply a small refrigerator and a microwave, and they do the internet too. They serve meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have a courtyard as their outdoor space too."

"We got a great and pretty immediate assistance from Navarre Gardens. The people are very helpful, and they've been taking pretty good care of my father-in-law. We haven't been able to visit recently because of COVID protocols. They had a resident that's positive, so they locked down the facility, but they seem to be doing really good in keeping them safe. The facility is brand new, and everything is real clean and pretty nice. The staff is very friendly, too. They even loaned us furniture until we're able to furnish his room. My father-in-law says the dining area is a pretty good social area for them, but since they've got into lockdown, it has been closed, and they've been letting the residents eat in their rooms. They have movie nights, a courtyard for them to walk around, and different social areas. When they're not under COVID protocol, they try and do a get-together, like dances or just different events that bring them out of their rooms and socialize with each other. He's been there since early December, and we feel that they've been pretty awesome. "

"This place is wonderful! It isn't one of the newer fancier assistant living facilities but the staff make up for that. It meets all of my mom's needs and I feel very confident she is in great hands. "

"I toured Hawthorn House. It's probably at least over two years old, but it was modern-looking, and clean, and it looked comfortable. The residents looked as happy as under the situation they probably didn't comprehend. They have activities and they have control over the wandering without being intrusive. They're maintaining their dignity while maintaining control. They're professional and compassionate. The facilities were nice, but the residents or their families were expected to furnish their rooms. It's not a hospital-type environment. The staff was very friendly and professional. Her presentation anticipated most of my questions, and for what was not anticipated, there was a period where I could ask questions that usually had a ready answer, or what she didn't know she could look up very quickly. The dining area was nice."

"Airforce Enlisted Village or Bob Hope Village is excellent for retired enlisted military, and it's also just an excellent community. Plus it's close to where my family lives so it's an ideal location for me personally. It's independent living and goes all the way to assisted and memory care. The staff that accommodated us was outstanding, very helpful and personable. The room that we saw there was very good, spacious, up-to-date and safe. We also discussed about the amenities for the residents. As far as being accessible to the base and things for retired people, it's excellent. It's right within 2 miles from the base."

"The Blake at Miramar Beach has a tremendous amount of activities I dearly love because I can go any time I can. We go out to restaurants, to the theaters, and shopping like Holly Lobby. Also, we've had all kinds of activities where they come in and we do molding clay. So, it's constant and I enjoy all the activities and I emphasize that because if I went to a place with no activities, I'd be very depressed, unhappy, and I probably wouldn't stay. The staff has been wonderful. I cannot complain. There's no one ever that I would say I do not like. I am served food three times a day if I go to the lunchroom. Sometimes their food is good. Sometimes it's not to my liking. It's OK. I usually eat once and then in my room, I eat the other. I do my own food preparations. The facilities are fine. I've got a bathroom with a complete shower. I don't have a kitchen area, which I dearly missed, but I have a microwave to warm up food and I have my own coffee. If I want their food, I go down to the lunchroom, but I only go depending on if they have the kind of food I prefer. There's a stove downstairs that I can go to and use and that's another activity. Once a week, they prepare a cooking session. This week, we're going to be preparing pecan pie. So you could go down, participate in that, and eat leftovers. So, I enjoyed that. Because across the street, we are on the bay, I am paying a lot more than I would pay elsewhere. Do I use the beach? No, but I have no control over that. This is an expensive area."

"Somerby of Santa Rosa Beach is very nice. The staff is very polite and they keep you informed. They make every effort to assist my mother-in-law. She is in a small studio apartment. They have regularly posted activities and therapeutic activities in memory care. They bring service animals, therapy dogs, and therapy horses. The food appears to be very delicious. The facility is newly renovated and it is clean. Their price is comparable and reasonable to the other facilities we looked at."

"Eden at Crestview is beautiful and very clean. The people were friendly. They showed me everything and answered all my questions. I called back this morning, and they knew me. They called me by name when I got there. It's top-notch so far. The rooms were beautiful and clean. They even have a microwave in them, I was surprised."

"Crescent Park Village is outstanding. My mother has been there for a number of years, and she has been treated with dignity; extremely good care. The food, and overall service is good. They really look after their residents individually. It is a nice, and very pleasant facility. It has a family setting. You feel like a family there. "

"Sandy Tingle and her staff at Carrington provided a safe place for both of my wife’s parents during their end of life transition periods. Sandy and her staff are loving and caring people and nurtured and cared for both of my wife’s parents as closely as if they were their own parents. What a blessing they are to our community. We are forever grateful."

"I LIVE IN CRESTVIEW MANOR AND AM VERY HAPPY WITH STAFF AND MANAGER. "
