Independent Living Communities in Lantana, FL

"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."

"I'm moving into Elison Independent Living of Lake Worth. They have many services that I would be able to use. I would have a large one-bedroom apartment whereas where I'm living now, there is only one big hotel room. The living front living quarters are much, much bigger and nicer at Elison. I have tried their food, and it was excellent. There were many activities. The staff members were so nice. They couldn't have been nicer. They're very nice people. The place was beautiful. It's a very big, beautiful place. It was the only one I looked at, and I liked that so much that I didn't want to look at anything else."

"This facility is the best that you will find anywhere. Spacious apartments, huge walk in closets, three meals plus a pantry where you can avail yourself of a snack, a sandwich, fruit, and water. Many activities which include trips and lunch out on Fridays. Staff is exceptional. Always ready to assist you."

"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."

"I went to Brookdale West Palm Beach. Everything was located very nicely. The apartment size was very good; I like that on the independent living side. The staff was very nice, and they were a very inclusive group of people. I had lunch, and then I had an afternoon pool party. The lunch was very delicious, and they had a large selection of meal choices. The outside pool party was just hamburgers, hot dogs, salads, and whatnot, but it was catered. There was music and everything. It was very, very nice. The common area was very lovely. They had different events that they hosted. There was a nice piano, and they had people in there who entertained them. It was very, very nice. I enjoy the social aspect of everything. It's very, very good."

"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."

"I toured Arcadia Gardens. They have just about everything. There seems to be a nice blend of people, mostly older women and a lot of them are on canes and things. They take nice care of themselves, but they have everything in there. They even have a movie theater, a restaurant, and a bar. I could see them drinking; they had cocktails hour. They have art classes. They have a gym, a library, and a room where you can meet people. For business or anything, you can use that room. Even more importantly, they have a wonderful staff who are very refined and welcoming, and they treat everybody very, very nicely. I looked at the one-bedroom and it was absolutely beautiful. It had a splendid kitchen, just right for an older woman. It had everything in it, all brand new stuff. It also had a screened-in porch, which was a very nice size for a small apartment. They have one bedroom, one bathroom, a huge storage closet, and a nice clothing closet. They have a very nice living room area and a dining room area as well that's connected. The kitchen has a counter and they had stools set up on the other side of the counter so that you could look into the kitchen. It was just beautifully done, and everything was sort of sparkling in there. The whole place is immaculate, which is very important to me. I'm a neat freak. Everything was just splendid. It was just lovely. There's parking like they have in the airport or in a lot of shopping malls where you're under the roof. You put your car there and it'll be safe and it'll be kept nice. It's beautiful. They invited me back to enjoy the music that they had there. There are terrific musicians. The people play cards. There's a little room to play cards. There's a big recreation room where they eat dinner and stuff. They have free breakfast, but I have to pay for my own Wi-Fi and electric utilities. "

"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."

"We visited Brookdale Palm Beach Gardens. My dad liked the vibe of it. The people are very friendly. It was affordable for him, and they had a beautiful room available. Everybody was great. The facility was a little dated compared to some of the newer ones, but overall, it was very, very clean. My dad would get a 1,100 square foot three-bedroom with two full baths. The atmosphere felt like you were on vacation."

"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."

"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%. "

"Addington Place of Jupiter was very luxurious and very clean. There was nothing I didn't like about it, except the rooms felt a little small for my dad. The staff was wonderful. The facilities were top of the line. They were very nice and very up-to-date. The rooms were adequate. They had full kitchens. It was nice."

"We toured Mangrove Bay. It's the most expensive, but it's the one that we like the best. It's really bright and it has a lot of amenities. They said most people in their facility don't go to assisted, what they've got there is if you need help, they have a couple of agencies they can refer you to, and then you could get care for about $20 to $25 an hour, so it's an a la carte care where you're paying for services as you need them, whereas a couple of the other places charge depending on the level of care you need. They have a pool and they have really nice grounds. It was bright and there were a lot of rooms and places to congregate and do things. For us, an attraction there was that it has a full kitchen. It wasn't huge, but it had a kitchen with a stove and a refrigerator and so on. They're remodeling them and they do a nice job of remodeling them before people move in. We loved the units that we looked at. They were updated. Their representative was very knowledgeable. She worked in the field for a long time. She was very well informed. The one thing that they have is a food allowance and it's two meals a day. If you don't use it, you can upgrade the meals if you have money left on your account, so that appealed to us. They have a higher-end menu. They offer breakfast and dinner. They don't offer lunch, but they have like a deli where you can get food. They have a lot of people that just retired, so they're in pretty good health. The place was very well kept. They seemed to be updating. "
