Independent Living Communities in Eustis, FL

"We were given a handful of places to tour, and Freedom Pointe at The Villages was the first one we looked at. Every other one we looked at after that didn't even compare, and every place we went just made it look better. The cleanliness, the friendliness of the staff, the facility, and just everything. My parents moved to their assisted living facility. It's my first experience with assisted living, and the odd part for me, my parents are absolutely fine with it, is that while it's technically a 1-bedroom but the bedroom wall is not completely closed off. That's a little different for me, but my parents don't have a problem with it. They seem to like it and maybe that's how others are, too. The staff comes by often to get their trash taken out daily and do their laundry. They're also very attentive, all the different staff. I have tried their food and my parents love it. They really went above and beyond, and all the staff seemed happy to be there."

"I thought Sumter Senior Living was very nice. The only thing I can say is that I thought the food was not great. They kept their residents entertained, and they had a lot for them to do. The layout was good. There was not an outdoor smoking area, but they did allow pets, which was very nice. The staff was very, very nice, too. However, I felt like the dining situation was a little confusing. It was kind of disorganized."

"I visited Highpoint at Stonecrest. They have a swimming pool, and it's beautiful and new. I liked everything that I saw. The whole facility is a five plus. The staff was wonderful, very friendly, and very informative. Everything about it was professional. I did see the dining room. It's like a restaurant. The cleanliness was superior. We went in the lobby, which was very well organized, clean, and well maintained. There's plenty of seating. They had a snack bar in there. It's like a hotel lobby. To me it was superior. The only drawback I saw was that the cost to stay there was too expensive from what I can afford."

"I'm in Cascade Heights. The food is excellent. All the people that work here are topnotch. They keep it clean. They have a lot of activities. They have buses to take you to different places. It's got everything you need. I have the apartment with a den. Everything I have fits perfectly. They have different apartment sizes. Any problem you have, they take care of it immediately."

"Pebble Springs is brand new. It's been open just a little over a year. I love my apartment and I love that I've met so many friends. The people are very active here. The staff is excellent. It wasn't at the beginning, but they changed managers and the new managers are really on top of everything. They're doing an excellent job. They have so many things. It has a gym with all the equipment, a library that's full, and a large outdoor swimming pool. The activities are great. I chose it because of the beauty of the building. There are ten-foot ceilings on the first floor. I have a dog and they built a dog park for us. There are just so many pluses."

"My tour at Florida Golden Adult Care went very well. I liked that it was a neighborhood, in that my aunt wouldn't get lost in a giant building. The place was very clean. The staff who toured us was very welcoming and informative. I was given a tour of the house. She showed me the complete facility. The dining area was clean and welcoming. There's a nice big backyard with a screened-in porch to eat out, and there's a TV, too."

"Bahama Bay Club Luxury Senior Living was a very nice facility. I enjoyed my tour. I know some people who have recently moved in there, and they're happy with it. It's all brand new. They had a library. It seemed like they had everything they needed. The staff was very informative and very pleasant."

"I was very impressed with the Grand Villa of Altamonte Springs. I toured their assisted living, and it was very clean and well-kept. They also have everything very organized. The person who helped during the tour was very professional and nice. They asked me to sample their food, but I didn't have time. They did give me a box of cookies when I left. I saw some exercises that they were doing in a room. They had a pool, but I didn't see anybody in it because it was raining."

"My mom is a resident of Brookdale Lake Orienta. It's very nice. They keep it very nicely. They don't have so many grounds to walk. She can walk, but it's not so big, but very nice. The staff has been great. They have been very responsive to her. Twice a week they have activities outside the facility where they can go and go to the mall or they go to a play. They do different things. They've got activities on site. They've got a gaming room. They have a beauty salon. They've got an exercise room. She's not in love with the food. She was very picky, so I'm sure the food was fine. I think she doesn't love it."

"I like American House Wildwood. I like that it is close to me. I felt good about the facility and the director, the person that I toured with. She showed me a studio, and then she showed me the model for a one-bedroom, which was nice. It had a big kitchenette that had a stove and all that stuff in there. They have appliances, which I like, because then if I want to come over and cook for my mom, I can. Other places only have little kitchenettes with no stove or anything. The staff member gave me a little bag that had all this information in it. She also gave me the dessert, and it was so good. The other thing I liked about them is that they had a full-service restaurant there. The building was good. I could tell everybody was happy because all the little old people were walking up to me and talking to me and talking to the person that I was touring with. There was also a lady that I thought could be really good friends with my mother."

"I went to The Summit of Winter Garden. The staff takes the time to talk to you and explain everything to you. The people working there, I feel more comfortable talking to them. They really care. They have a gym and they have an outside where you can sit down, and it's really good."

"In 2010 I made a decision to relocate. Choosing Villa Grande was my final choice. Looking back, I realize that it was a very wise decision. Over the years my needs have changed but the management team has supported and met those needs. The programs and amenities have provided a lifestyle which has helped me enjoy each day with a positive outlook. I look forward to another 13 years!"

"Every time I visit my parents this community is spotless. The plant Operation director, Eri is amazing and my parents love him."

"They make it a point of getting to know you and your loved one and their needs. Although our dad was in for a very brief period we knew we had chosen the right place. We were able to sample the food and explore the entire facility. Food was good and the staff were never without a friendly greeting. Thank you to everyone for caring for our dad. Much appreciation."
