The Arbor at Shell Point

My mother moved in Shell Point Larsen Pavilion in August of 2006 and died in December of 2010. My father and I liked them very much and I give them two thumbs up. We thought they did a good job. They had activities there. I liked that there were facilities that my dad and I could take her out to lunch or supper which we did at least once a week.

We had visited the Arbor which was part of the same company that runs King's Crown at Shell Point, so decided to check it out as well, as an option for my friend's mother. Just like the other facility, the grounds resembled a resort. The exterior featured well manicured lawns and a fresh, Spanish look. Plenty of space for residents to enjoy social gatherings, also with a lovely Roman type fountain. The resort level amenities included what you would find while vacationing, such as tennis, boating, hiking and other outdoor activities. They also regularly visit local restaurant favorites, the public library and movies - and take day trips into the surrounding regions. The nurse's station looked more like s hotel lobby, with an elegant, modern, decor. The common areas had a modern, spacious design. The formal seating area had a nice, cozy fireplace. There were many places for residents to enjoy a variety of activities, from general socializing to games, billiards, reading and media. The dining area was restaurant like, but still gave off a vibe of hominess. The meals we saw looked very appetizing. The snacks all looked delicious and healthy. The private housing options included a variety of floor plans. This facility reminded us of a stylish, upscale condo or resort community more than anything else, but with staff to see that the residents' specific needs were met as necessary.
