The Best Assisted Living Communities in Volusia County, FL

"We toured Blue Palms Senior Living of Deland. I liked that we met somebody. They showed all the things that were there. There's a cafeteria you can go to, a little gym, and a library. There is independent living here, and assisted living, and there are different steps right there. It was close to downtown. I thought it was great. The person who gave us the tour was a nice lady who was very positive, listened to us, and showed us some different options."

"My husband moved into the Grand Villa of DeLand. They had a lot of things going on to keep people busy if they wanted to. They also have a salon and a movie theater. They have a lot of things to pick from and a swimming pool. The staff is very nice. The food is excellent. He has no complaints about the food whatsoever. There are always extra choices, and he looks forward to eating. He went to the salon, and they gave him a wonderful shave. Everybody was very friendly. It's a very nice atmosphere. The people there are very nice. Everybody always smiles and says hello."

"Ormond In The Pines was very nice, but it's not where I want to live. Nevertheless, it was very good, informative, and helpful. The community was just fine, but I like it. There wasn't anything special that stood out. It was just a nice community. It was good and open. The staff was excellent. The facilities were clean and well-organized."

"I will be moving into Riviera Senior Living. A lot of my neighbors moved to Riviera, so I thought that might be quite nice because I know a lot of people, plus the fact that it is very, very nice, and everyone seems to be quite happy. What I like best is the condition that it was in because the place where I came from was sold under terrible circumstances and is just falling apart. The staff was very, very helpful and very, very nice. I was with another couple of friends who were also looking, so we all had lunch together, and it was excellent. It was very, very clean. That was one of the things I was very impressed with. The condition of the buildings was excellent as well. The size of the rooms is pretty good, and each apartment has its own washer and dryer."

"Brookdale DeLand is an excellent community. What I like most was that it didn't have that hospital type smell. It was clean. It was wonderful. It smelled like being at home. Everything was clean. It was just fresh. I heard music a lot, and I like that, too. The staff members were very, very friendly, and very welcoming. They have a dining room and I liked that my loved one won't have to be confined to a room to eat. Not only that, but she can also eat her food in the dining room, or she can take it back to her apartment. It would be up to her, it's her choice. The staff member who toured me was wonderful. The dining hall was a big area, but the tables and chairs looked like being at home. The highlight there is the openness of everyone. They've answered my questions and asked if I had any more questions. They were very patient and very open with me."

"I toured Angel Premium Care LLC. Upon entering the home, it is a private dwelling. It was very clean and very nice. She had one other patient in the home who was bedridden. If we decided to go with that, my mom would have shared the room with the other patient. I didn't particularly care for that because it was a male, and there was no separation in the room. In other words, if my mom had gone there, a male could have been in another bed. I didn't care for the fact that the residents mostly have to stay in that one room because it is a private home. So, she is doing a good job. The owner was very nice, but it would not be for my mom. It was very nice on the inside. The owner lives there, so it was kept up. I don't want to say anything bad about it, but for my mom, it's just not the right place."

"We toured Lexington Place. It's a nice community. It's relatively modern and up-to-date. It lacks a swimming pool or any scenery, but other than that, it's a nice facility. The staff was very good. They try to keep you entertained and keep you busy. It's nice they have guests who offer musical entertainment. It sounded very nice as far as the activity is concerned."

"My Aunt stayed here and when she first toured it, she called it “homey”. I live in PA and my Aunt’s DPOA, so being able to contact a live person was important for me if I was unable to reach my Aunt or if something was off. From Taylor at the front desk, the PT girls, the cafeteria staff, the aides to Stefany in charge of nursing…all of them were available for my call and if I had to leave a message they always called back. They offer an array of services and my Aunt loved the food! They were definitely an affordable place, but the staff was kind, caring and helpful. Great place!"

"I was looking for an assisted for my Dad and stopped by Brookdale in Ormond Beach. I met with the Executive Director and after talking with her and observing the friendly staff, this is where I’d want my Dad to be. Thank you for making this decision for us."

"My mother-in-law lived at Woodland Towers. I didn't like the marketing director, but besides that, the place and everything else were great. The cook did a good job, and all the food tasted good. I was satisfied with the food and ate with her once or twice. It's a very nice facility. They had different spaces on different floors and two sides: senior living and assisted living. They kept the residents busy with enough activities to get them through the day, and the value for money was good."

"The tour I had at Grand Villa of Ormond Beach was very good. I think one of their goals is to make you feel at home, like you're just not in a facility, but you're in a homey place. The only thing is it is not in the greatest area in town. There's a lot of traffic there and it's not much on the countryside. It is more in the city. The rooms were well-kept, roomy, and maintained well. The person that gave the tour was very good. My father liked her a lot. The dining area was very nice. The day we went there, they had a musician that was singing karaoke style and there were a lot of people in there, and they were all enjoying themselves a lot, so it was great."

"My husband moved to Gold Choice Deltona, and the staff is wonderful. Everybody there has been extremely helpful. They've helped him adjust very well, and he's doing fine. His moving-in process went very well, and it's been a very good experience for the most part. One roommate started going through his things a little bit, and that upset him a bit, but it was taken care of promptly."

"I toured Sancerre at Orange City. It was very nice, but it was out of my price range. It's a newer facility. Everyone was very nice. The marketing director was very nice. He was a young man. He wanted to let me know he would help me any way he could. It was very clean. I got a very nice vibe from the place. The rooms were nice. They have a patio area, and it was open. They had plants, places for the people to sit, and plenty of parking."
