Assisted Living Communities in The Villages, FL

"Highpoint at Stonecrest is convenient to my doctors. It is very nice. I love the place, but the monthly rent was expensive. It is relatively new, and it is convenient for anything you want to do. It is convenient for shopping, and of course, they provide transportation. I had a meal there, and it was wonderful. They have a chef in their kitchen. It was very good. It was excellent. I was very pleased with this place. Their rooms were outstanding. They were beautiful. They had updated appliances, cabinets, and countertops. Everything was up to date. If you ended up getting a space there and you didn't like something in it, you would have to update it at your cost, but they always clean it and paint it and everything like that before you go in. My daughter loved that place. I took her there, and it was like going into a model home. They have a movie theater, gymnastic place, and areas where you could have exercise classes or different things like that. I thought they were well planned out."

"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."

"My mom moved into Brookdale Chambrel Pinecastle. We chose it because it is closer to where we live. Her apartment is very nice and spacious. I've seen the food, which looks and smells very good. The facilities seem very clean and neat, with fresh paint. Everyone seems pleasant and helpful. They do about six activities during the day, and they've done bingo, games, and other types of activities. The staff have been very helpful. Everything that we found was somewhere close to the same price, so I guess it's a good value."

"We toured Brookdale Paddock Hills. It was nice, neat, and clean, and everybody seemed friendly. The only thing we weren't happy about was the layout in general, where the different apartments were set up like the exterior part of the hallways and things like that. Their food smelled excellent when we were there at dinner time."

"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."

"I toured Hampton Manor at Deerwood. We like the cleanliness and the activity level that they would be getting there. They separated the mental health from everybody else, which was the only thing we really didn't like. I think my mother was somewhere in between, so we were thinking that it would be better to allow her to migrate between the two, but they kind of keep them separated. The staff was very helpful. She let us know that even if we didn't use the community, we could use her as a resource in looking for something for my mother. We walked around the rooms, and they looked good. They have lots of different stuff for people to use and to go through. They had a thrift store that was an internal for getting stuff done. It had a nice atmosphere about it."

"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."

"Hawthorne Inn of Ocala was an average facility, but the interaction I saw between the residents was excellent. They were interactive. It's good. We were in the dining area because it was around lunchtime, and Dad got to see the interaction of people there and was concerned about the language barrier. Most of them were only English speaking, and he's a Spanish-speaking 99%, He wanted to make sure that the location had some bilingual people or people who spoke his language so he could interact with them properly. We visited the three types of room sizes. They were adequate. The room size, for our standards for one person, was kind of in the middle range. It wasn't that big. The hallways were clean. Everything's OK. We went through a library area where the residents got to pick books and read. They had somewhat of a selection. It wasn't a huge selection. Then we stepped outside. In our opinion, the outside was not an appropriate interaction for outdoor activities because there was none, other than a small porch with a couple of seatings. You just kind of sit there and maybe bask in the sun, and that's about it. My dad is more of the outdoorsy type that he would like interactions with a garden or growing tomatoes, or there are animals in the facilities, or just basically gazing and seeing what's going on in there to kind of keep his mind occupied. I personally liked the wood floors. That made it a nice, very homey, and warm feeling. The staff was friendly. All the spaces that I visited were clean. I got a peek at their activity room or craft room where they were doing some painting or something like that, and it was small because this looks like a smaller facility than the other one we visited. I saw their menu and they had a variation of items."
