University Village FL

We visited University Village and planning to move there. It's very nice. I would say that it's deluxe retirement. They have amenities for their residents and nice apartments as well as homes that you can purchase. It's several floors. We liked it a whole lot. We had put in our payment to go there and you purchase your living space. That amount of money is a lot for some people that you have to provide to hold your living arrangement. They have a committee that will meet and make decisions regarding what they feel is the proper living arrangement for the individual. I only visited the independent care and had meals with them there; the food was good. It's a beautiful place. The staff is good because they have regular training. I didn't see anything wrong at all.

My father lived here for 81/2 years. My father had a health scare and was found laying on bathroom floor after 14 hours. My father later was diagnosed with cancer of the brain. Very rude and uncaring staff. They saw the end and just turned their backs.

I was most impressed with University Village FL. It's a much more modern, newer, and larger facility. The rooms are very spacious and have a TV in each room, but it's more expensive. The people were very good, and they had a pretty good staff. They tried to work with me on financing and give me a discount, but it just didn't work out.

I visited and didn't like University Village. They’re under investigation, and the state is trying to shut them down. They weren’t prepared for me when I showed up and had no idea I was even going to be there. They had crafts, studio rooms, and residents sitting. It’s an old facility.

University Village was very nice. It was an 8-story building, and they took us to the 7th floor, which was beautiful. I really liked it, but at that time, it was a buy-in. Now, I understood that it could also be a rental. The room was gorgeous and brand new. It was a new floor with a new kitchen. Everything was on the 7th floor and was quite attractive. We liked the activities. We were very pleased with that one.

University Village was very nice, but their prices go up every year. They had some spacious rooms that were really nice. I liked the place. They had a lot of activities.

Beautiful facility on the renovated independent living side. The other property across the street with assisted living and memory care needs updating and cleaning. Not sure it would be appropriate for my parents hearing what the company is going through at this time.

University Village is just the proper place you would want to be. You can do as little or as much as you want. The place is full of life instead of full of death. It is a very nice place. They have a pool, a gym room, and an auditorium, and they have all kinds of things going on. These people are busier than working people. It is something to really see. And the people that buy-in are entertaining and easy to get along with. There is a healthy mixture of all kinds of people, which I prefer. I don't want to be with one certain kind or group of people; I like the mixture of people. We made some wonderful friends up there, and it is just like going to a place where you meet people from all sorts of life and culture. It is wonderful. It is the best thing we have ever seen in our life, and the food is tremendous.
