"The Palace At Weston is truly a terrific place. The staff really cares and there are so much to do. My parents have been happy there since they opened four years ago. I have great peace of mind knowing that my loved ones while taken care of."

"They treat your family member, as one of their own. My grandmother loved the staff, always had a positive interaction with them. She especially loved the dog/emotional pet time. When they brought the dogs around, it made her day every time. I also, have nothing but the best to say. The staff truly cares about the patients and you can tell 100%. "

"I really liked Grand Villa of Deerfield Beach. Their memory care facility seemed extremely nice as well. The staff was helpful. They have a well thought out program for caring for the seniors. The rooms were excellent. It was spotless. The dining area was very nice."

"We have a very large apartment at Vi at Aventura. It's a very nice place. It's not low end; it's high end. Then I found out that I could live there with the same level of care but without paying for it. Right now, we're still paying for this apartment; we paid $450,000. We can live in it, run out of money, and still stay until we die. We pay $5,600 a month, so it's a lot of money. We've been living here two years. We also have our own caregiver. We have about 1800 square feet, we have two bedrooms, and we have two-and-a-half baths. We live on the twelfth floor, and if I look out below me, I can see the Turnberry golf course, which is beautiful. If I look out in front of me, there's the ocean, and to the right we have the ocean and the intercoastal waterway; it's a beautiful view. The staff is perfect; you could never find people who are more helpful. They're awesome. They have activities for everything; there are games, movies, history, they have tours -- there's nothing left out here. Plus there are Zoom programs that you can watch. It's a community that's both Jewish and non-Jewish, and they celebrate all the holidays. We have a new chef now, and the food is so much better than it used to be. I didn't used to care for it, but I do now. They've made a deal with the county club down the block so that we can use any of their facilities that we don't have in our own, like basketball, the outdoor pool, or sports."

"We toured Stratford Court of Boca Pointe. The information was complete regarding what they provide and the facets they have, as far as the future, as more help is needed. It was very informative. They told us the pricing structure and the different options that we would ask for. Garrett took us on a tour of the library, game rooms, and the bistro where they eat. The thing that struck us was that as we walked around the facility, the people volunteered the fact that they loved it there, and there couldn't be any better. You learn more from the people who are there."

"My mom was at the independent living facility here and then she moved to their assisted living. The facility is very nice. It's excellent. They have lots of activities. They served three meals a day. You have your apartment and if you're in the assisted living, they have nurses that come every couple of hours to check on the patients. It's very nice. They have arts and crafts, bingo, cards, and musical during the day. There are a lot of activities and everybody was very friendly. "

"Verena at Delray was very nice and clean-looking. The people were dressed nicely, and the apartments were nice, too. I don't have any negatives. My friends also like it. There was an apartment with a full kitchen. The staff was very nice. It is near Delray Medical Center, and they have a pool, too."

"We went and saw Grand Villa of Delray Beach East. We love it, but it's too expensive. We went over everything, then the staff showed us a studio and a one-bedroom. My husband loves it. The staff showed us everything. From what I saw, it was top notch, and my husband wanted to stay there, but we can't afford it. The staff member who gave the tour was an excellent woman. The room was clean, nice, and spacious. The dining room was nice. It had a white tablecloth. It's very clean."

"From the moment you walk in, you’re warmly greeted. The Palace is filled with many fun and interesting activities and a welcoming ambiance that never disappoints. I’m deeply grateful for the care and services my aunt has received since her very first day here. Knowing she is at The Palace gives my family and I peace of mind. The staff has made this a smooth transition, giving my family and I peace of mind. We know we made the right choice."

"Grand Villa of Boynton Beach was very cute and very charming. A little bit older, but they had a pool and one of those wheelchair assists to help people get into the pool, which was a big plus for us. They had a large studio that you could share with another person if you wanted to reduce the cost, which was a big deal for us as well. So, there were other options for pricing and ways to make it work, because in a lot of other places, there's no wiggle room, but in this case, they had two options, which we found helpful. Everyone was really happy there. I think that was even the place where some of our residents said that they loved it. They had a movie theater and a hair/nail salon."

"I like everything about The Contemporary. They have a very good place. The apartments are wonderful. I love them because it is a nice place. The manager is a wonderful person. He's very knowledgeable. Everyone was wonderful and friendly. I was shown the menu, and it looked very nice. The building is very modern. It only has two stories. It's not a big building but I like it. The atmosphere was very nice. Everybody was nice. Everybody looked happy. The room's layout was perfect."

"Mom was at Brookdale West Boynton Beach and it was great there. We loved it. They were just so nice, but I think probably one of the best and the deciding factor was that they had a program to help you take out a loan against the house so that we had time to get mom's finances in order. They gave us the ability to help us pay while we had to sell her house for her to move in. She was in a studio apartment. It was adorable. It had two enormous closets, a private bathroom, and a pretty generous kitchen area, too. It was bigger than just a kitchenette. It was great and the people there were so nice. Another great thing is that they have a physical therapist that would do water aerobics with them and that was the only place that we found that had that. That was huge for us because she needed physical therapy. They had an outdoor pool for that. They also had an activities room and a small movie theater. It was great. There are tons and tons of activities. The meals were great. My mom loved them. It's like restaurant-style. They were accommodating. They even offered to give my mom a scooter. A resident has passed away and that resident had donated their scooter. They were just so helpful."
