Assisted Living Communities in The Villages, FL

"I visited Highpoint at Stonecrest. They have a swimming pool, and it's beautiful and new. I liked everything that I saw. The whole facility is a five plus. The staff was wonderful, very friendly, and very informative. Everything about it was professional. I did see the dining room. It's like a restaurant. The cleanliness was superior. We went in the lobby, which was very well organized, clean, and well maintained. There's plenty of seating. They had a snack bar in there. It's like a hotel lobby. To me it was superior. The only drawback I saw was that the cost to stay there was too expensive from what I can afford."

"The Harrison of Wildwood was excellent. It was very neat. They were friendly. They showed us the rooms and the facilities. They answered all my questions about extracurricular activities and stuff like that. The rooms were very adequate for one person. The place was clean, and it smelled good. The dining area was very nice and spacious. The tables weren't crammed together, and that kind of stuff. That would be a place I would seriously consider for my mother. I thought the staff was very good and very thorough. We visited the exercise room. I was just very impressed with the place. It was very nice, spacious, and clean. I went into the restroom while I was there, and it was very clean. The residents smelled clean, and so did the rooms."

"I visited the Village Veranda at Lady Lake's assisted living, and it was very nice. The building is fairly new, and the whole area is beautiful. The person who gave the tour was very nice and gracious. She explained everything nicely. There's nothing I can complain about the place. It looked very nice. I looked at the one-bedroom unit, which is what I was interested in, and it's very nice. A little bit smaller than what I've seen in one or two other people's bedrooms who are in assisted living, but there's nothing wrong with the room."

"I will move into Lake Port Square. I like that all the units have a little patio that's glassed in and are like separate rooms. This unit is gorgeous. It has a quartz countertop, lots of cabinet space, and a lot of storage space in all its units. I ate lunch there, and the food was very good. I like Cindy, the salesperson. She's a very nice person and accommodating, and the fact that they send a person out here with the floor plan of your unit to decide what to take will help tremendously in the move. You can bring two pets under 20 pounds. The full-time nurse is there Monday through Friday from eight to four. I met some of the staff, and everybody seemed friendly. The rooms are very large, and that is what I like most about them."

"I went to look at Brookdale Chambrel Pinecastle. It was a short distance from me, and I liked it. It was on my top three lists. It was very spacious. It met all the criteria. They have on-site nursing. They offered assistance if my father needed a ride or to get to his appointments. He has his independence on top of having nursing care. They had plenty of activities. The dining room looks nice. The staff seemed pleasant and helpful. As far as the care goes, they offered to get things done, like the laundry and taking the trash out. They gave me a little dessert thing when I left, and it was good. They had a game room and a community room for your family."

"We visited Brookdale Paddock Hills and it was very nice. The facility was very comfortable, spacious, and clean and that's one thing we are looking for. The cost was a little higher. The staff was very good, clean, and polite. They were good people. The meal was excellent."

"We liked Brookdale Lake Tavares very much. The apartments had a bedroom, a big walk-in closet, a living room, a dining area, and a little kitchenette. They were nice. You didn't feel like you were just stuck in a room. It's had a nice balcony too. They have entertainment, music, church on Sunday, bible study, bingo, and cards. The dining area was beautiful and we met the chef. The food was very good. They've got a lovely library and they have an outdoor patio that looks out on the lake. You can walk near the lake and sit on the benches down there. It's just beautiful. They have a community room and a computer room. The staff was wonderful. It's beautiful on the outside and very nice on the inside."

"My husband moved into The Windsor of Ocala. They've got so much going on every day. Different things, like they were playing upbeat music. And then they move their hands and their feet keeping time with the music, and they have different memory games. Like, they'll go through the alphabet with A and everybody thinks of every word they can think of that starts with the letter A, just different memory games. Also, ball games involving the muscles. The facility is very clean and they keep things up. You don't have to wait for things to be fixed or anything if something happens. They come in and clean all the rooms and everything in the common room every day. The food is very good and very nourishing. They get their range of vegetables, fruit, and everything. They get to snack in between breakfast and lunch. They have what's called snack and hydration. So they also give them a drink, a glass of water, a snack, and then again in the afternoon. In memory care, a lot of those people don't think to say, I need something to drink or water."

"I toured Regency Park Assisted Living & Memory Care, and I thought it was very good. It was light and bright. The patients, a lot of them were up in the community room. They were having karaoke, playing music, and participating. There were other residents that were in various places around. The rooms were nice. They're I guess adequate, they're not really large. You think of a hotel room, and that's about the size that they are, not a suite but a single hotel room. They also have double occupancy or single rooms, which are priced differently. I have a cat, so they do not take pets. They might make an exception if I took a single room and paid an extra $50 a month for the pet. It gets kind of pricey once you get a single room, and on top of that, you have your pet fee. The woman who gave me the tour was very friendly and outgoing, and I was just very impressed by her. The rooms are small, and if there are two people in the room, it's gonna be a little cramped. It wasn't a very nice place to walk around the facility. It's an undeveloped area and there are no houses around but there are offices, doctor's offices, business offices, and Massey, lawn care. Right now, I'm used to walking. I like to get outside. I like to walk or work outside and there's nothing like that. The facility is nice but the amenities like the outside were not that good. I think it's a converted hotel or motel. They don't have any screened-in porches or patios or anything like that. The rooms have been well taken care of and they're fixing and painting some additional rooms."

"Brookdale Tavares was very nice. The people were very accommodating. They answered questions thoroughly. It was a very nice visit. The common spaces were very nice. The bedrooms were decorated very quaintly. It's in a nice location."

"Hampton Manor at Deerwood is a very nice home. I like it here. I moved here because my wife is deceased, so I couldn't take care of the house and myself, but I have been here for 18 months now. The food is incredible. They have meal after meal after meal, and they're good. It's like you have a catered meal, and it's so good. The staff is great, especially the medical staff. They are very, very good. I don't take part in activities because I'm still fairly active. I create my own activities, but listening to people who do them here, I think they're very good. There's bingo for the bingo fans. There are activities for people who want to be active. It is a very clean and very friendly community. It's the feeling you get when you come in here. I'm pretty much a private person, so people generally leave me alone, so that's very nice."

"I toured Camelot Chateau Assisted Living. It's very nice. They're very nice people and very courteous. My husband's grandmother was there before she passed. I toured a little apartment. It looked clean. It looks like it has all the necessities for a person that wants to live there. It's very nice. It had a bathroom, but it didn't have a kitchen. I think they have a salon. The dining room was large and very nice. They had someone there from Oak-Griner Church that were singing in the dining room, which was wonderful. It's very neat. It looks like a little park. It's great. My husband's grandmother was there. I would recommend it."

"All the attendants at Eustis Senior Care were visible and walking around. It's clean, nice, and neat. Everything's tidy. Everyone seemed friendly, very informative and answered all my questions. I liked the fact that it's a locked facility. It's secured. They had the code as you go in and once the door closes, you have to have a code to open it, which I liked. No one can wander out. I didn't see a courtyard. When you first walk up to the entry, there's a little patio area that's gated with a lock. The rooms were pretty big, had a nice sized bathroom, with two beds. They were clean. They were just watching TV because it was early in the morning. The dining room wasn't big, but it was suitable and nice for that size. The room I saw had a nice scent to it. There was no odor in the whole facility at all."
