The Best Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Palm Beach County, FL

"My parents are in the process of moving onto the property. The Independent living facility they are moving into gives them the luxury of living independently in a condo but with the security of life time health car at a reasonable cost. Its giving my parents the peace of mind that they will be taken care of medically for the rest of their lives with the security they will never burden family with any medical debt if it rears its ugly head. The property is beautifully landscaped with many fountain filled lakes and beautiful birds of all shapes and sizes. The Independent living facility is the most modern and up to date facility out there. I will update this website once my parents move in and let you know how the facility is treating my parents, the new residence of St Andrews. This is an amazing new experience for them and we are hoping St Andrews comes through and makes it everything we think it will be as a wonderful new experience for the latter years of my parents lives. "

"I love St. Andrews Estates, but I can't afford it. They have independent living, assisted living, and memory care. If I had enough money, I would go there. The problem there is depending on what level you want, it's about a $300,000 entrance fee. The facilities were nice. They have a lot of grassy areas. They have two pools and a big pond. They have two sides, the north and the south side. The buildings were very, very nice. We went and visited a one-bedroom and a bedroom and a den and they have a full kitchen. It was really beautiful. They have one meal that they provide. They have activities. They have a place for physical therapy and a place for arts and crafts. They even have a small room where they have shows or activities, and they have happy hour. We went three times and each time we went, we had a meal. The Sunday brunch was nice. You got to choose whether you wanted breakfast or lunch, and they had a wide variety of food and it tasted great. The staff was very friendly. I met the people in the kitchen and they have volunteers that come and serve you. Everyone was friendly, and they said hello. They have golf carts that are available for the people that live there to use inside. Like if you live on the far end and you need the golf cart to go to dinner or someplace, you can use the golf cart. One of the days we went, they were having something. A lot of people were in the hallway. They were listening to somebody give a speech. They have a bus that you could reserve and then go shopping and stuff like that."

"Extremely well managed and professional staff during the recent hurricane preparation challenges. Care and safety of residents is priority. Administrative personnel is available and responds promptly to concerns/suggestions. Therapy staff are creative for patient rehab and on-going care. Small enough to have cozy environment, large enough to provide many amenities."

"Waterford was very nice, clean, bright, and cheerful. The apartments were very nice and they were customized to each resident as they moved in. The staff member who accommodated us during the tour was very friendly and helpful. We ate lunch there a couple of times, and it was very nice. They had a wide range of activities. They had exercises, swimming, crafts and arts, charity events, and they had speakers come in."

"We chose Five Star Premier Residences of Boca Raton for my mom, but she will be just moving in. The place is very nice, and mom is very happy that we chose the place. The apartment that she is moving in is very nicely done in terms of countertops, carpeting, and all the amenities in terms of her care. We are quite satisfied with what we chose. "

"I lived at Edgewater Pointe Estates. It's a lovely, luxurious place, and it's expensive. They have an extensive gym and they have all activities except tennis and golf. They have one meal in the independent living portion and three in the assisted living section. There's laundry on every floor, and pickup and delivery as well. It's a perfect place. I'm going there for the holidays this weekend."

"We toured A1 Senior Living. My friend did not like it because it was more for memory care. I'm not saying bad about it, and everything was okay. We checked the assisted living area. The rooms were very nice. They're individual rooms. The staff who gave us the tour was very nice and very educated. They have enough amenities. The staff were very good."

"We toured Park Summit. The great thing is that I didn't even make an appointment. I went there. There was somebody available. They took us around, explained all the different things that the community has to offer, such as the gym, physical therapies, the dining, the menus, the activities, the housekeeping service weekly, the different alternatives as far as their one-bedroom apartment and two-bedrooms studios. They asked a lot of questions about my father-in-law just to make sure that he was able to live independently. The best part is that they said he could come here for three days and test drive the place. He did, and that is what really sealed the deal. They have breakfast and lunch or breakfast and dinner, so that was really good. He's moving any time soon. The place is ready. We were concerned because it is a pretty big place, and when they get older maybe it gets confusing to get to the dining room area. I mean, they had somebody who came and picked him up and took him there, and so that was good, but at some point he has to do it on his own. So they said, we have another place that is pretty close. It is easier for him to get to his gym, which is like steps away from his needs, because he loves going to the gym. They were very accommodating. The place is nice. It's neat and he got to an apartment. They had new bathrooms, a new kitchen, and fresh paint, so that was also very nice. It was a blessing. It was really good. I saw the menus. I asked my father-in-law, he said it was good."

"John Knox Village was very nice, all new, and very clean. The apartment was beautiful. The staff was very polite and very nice. We have nothing to complain about. It's only that it's extremely expensive. There is a new complex that they built. They have some that are older, but the new one is outstanding."
