American House Bluewater Bay Bluewater Bay, FL

My mother is living in American House Bluewater Bay. It's fine, and she is happy there. I haven't had any real complaints at all. So far, so good. The staff is fairly nice. She is in independent living, so there is not a lot of eagerness to help her if she does need help, and that's been a little bit of a problem. I think the food is fine. She complains constantly, so I couldn't tell if it's actually good or not. She hasn't lost any weight, so I would say that the food is pretty good. It probably could be a little bit better at times as far as the variety, but overall, I think it's pretty good. The apartments are very nice, clean, and maintained very well. The grounds are kept very clean, nice, and free of any kind of debris or anything like that. They have plenty of activities. They should improve on the attitude of the staff, to help them understand that seniors are going through different phases of their lives. I think some of the staff are a little bit hardened to that and not patient enough at times.

I lived in American House Senior Living Bluewater Bay. I really liked living there, and I liked the staff. When they changed hands, it changed a bit, but it was really a great place to be, and it's brand-new. Their amenities include a pool and a hot tub, they havw parking and buses to take you shopping or to the doctor. You don't have to have a car there. They also have movie theaters, happy hour, live music on Fridays, and dancing. It was very nice.

American House Bluewater Bay has everything I need and is conveniently located. I like that they provide opportunities for socializing and education. I've had a meal there and it was quite good. I was quite impressed with the staff, especially the director. He was very informational, he had a good personality, and he seems like someone I would enjoy associating with.

Superior Residences at Bluewater Bay is a small community, and my mother has lived here a lot of her life. She knows a lot of people here. There are mostly retired military in the residence, and she’s familiar with them. It was a new facility when she moved in 2 years ago. It’s very nice and very pleasant and has fewer amenities, but it’s comfortable. The food is very good; the menu rotates every month, but they need more outside travel. If you wanted to go to the store, they only go once a week, so even though the store was only 10 blocks down the street, she was limited a bit in that.
