Independent Living Communities in Palm Bay, FL

"Raquel has made a lovely, light, spacious warm home for my husband. I pinch myself everyday for above and beyond compassionate and patient care he is receiving. Raquel is a true professional who always has a smile on her face . Her vast experience and gentle care have been a positive game changer in his life and mine! finally, after 3.5 years in two costly assisted living facilities, he is receiving the kind of care every elderly person deserves. He is 88.5 with Parkinson’s but no tremor and is cognitively with it. We are blessed beyond measure to have her as part of our family. Even his physician is impressed with all of the positive changes in him! This is an awesome Assisted Living Facility!"

"The Promenade was very nice and very clean, and the people were friendly. It was a nice tour, but it was overpriced for me. The place is only four or five years old. They had a salon and a little courtyard. The staff during the tour was very good, knowledgeable, and very friendly. The place was fairly new. Everything was in good shape. They got a nurse there. It seemed like they took very good care of the people that were there. I got to see other residents, not from the memory care unit, but residents who could get in and out around the grounds and stuff."

"The thought of moving from Assisted LIving to Memory Care was daunting. However we could not have made a better choice. Alura and its staff provide a safe and secure environment for our loved one and offer amazing activities to engage them in fun, entertaining and enriching events. A recent planned afternoon visit by a hired Elvis impersonator had the entire unit hooting and clapping to the music. It was unbelievable how alive the residents in memory care became the moment the entertainer stepped in. Memory issues? Not that day, everyone was signing the words, lots of dancing (wheel chairs and all) and even a peanut butter and banana sandwich snack. Kudos to Mary and her team for putting this together and for making a very MEMORABLE experience for the residents and their families."

"I toured Shell Harbor Retirement. It was so luxurious and beautiful and a fantastic place. They had everything. I was very impressed. The managers live on the property. It was almost like staying at a five-star hotel. Everything was brand new. It's so expensive. The kitchen was unbelievable, but the only program there was breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which were all included. The food was fabulous. However, they should have another alternative, like an apartment with a kitchenette. The staff was amazing, and he loved his job. He was there with me the whole time. We even had lunch together. He took me on the tour and knew everything about the place. What impressed me was that wherever we moved around this beautiful facility, he knew everybody by name. If I had the money, I would move there."

"The Brennity at Vero Beach is upscale and it's pricy. It's top-of-the-line. They've also got unassisted living there, so wealthy people come down in the winter and stay there and they get golf privileges. It's a nice golf course. It's a fancy place. These people all do a wonderful job. They know what they're doing. They're professional. The restaurant had gourmet meals. When I was there, they had grilled salmon and tenderloin steak for that night. Everything was top shelf."

"My mother has a one-bedroom apartment and everybody has been amazing and has been helping her get situated. It's been a good experience. The staff members helped her get acclimated to her new surroundings and introduced other residents to her. Tonight they had a welcome dinner for the new residents, and it was very well received. They have bingo, water aerobics, there's a heated pool, gym, library, and a movie theater."

"I toured Hidden Lakes Senior Living Community. The people I talked to were very friendly. And the way they set it up, they have screen enclosures where you could sit outside, and you don't have to worry about bugs. The food was okay; it was good. And because I work, the only thing I would be interested in is dinner."

"My mom was about to move into Cristal Palace, but at the last minute, they said that she needed too much care that they won’t be able to provide. It’s pretty, clean, well kept, bright, and sunny. The people looked happy. I didn't have complaints about that. The people eat in the dining area where they watch TV. The person that toured us was a big help. I really wanted to put my mother in, but unfortunately, things didn’t work out. "

"I went here twice, and they had a beautiful room that would be nice for me. I like the view as it’s right on the water, and I have been in the water was a youngster. I believe I could fish out there; it’s a like a lagoon that runs through or a river. That should be friendly for everybody who likes the outdoors. There’s big trees -- really a beautiful place. They have a salon and bingo, and they have a beautiful cafeteria. They have a real cuisine. They have shrimp, salad, and gourmet line for lunch. The people were very nice; I met a lot of the workers, and they were very nice. The lady in charge was very helpful to my needs. "

"We saw Buena Vida Estates. The apartments are very, very nice. There's nothing I like least. It's a rather small place. The population is small, but they still have as many activities as any other place. The staff answered all our questions. They have everything that we would be interested in. They have a gym and a pool. The upkeep was very good. No complaints at all."

"My friend is a resident of Trinity Towers East. They're very friendly at the front desk. They do lots of activities for the seniors. The building is kept very clean. The apartments are very nice and have an income base, so it's a plus. They overturned quite a bit on staff, so it's not like you get to know who the staff is because they stay for a bit and are not there. Other than that, they're still courteous. The facility is appealing to the eye. I have not attended the activities, but it looks like everyone's happy. They get a lot of value for their money. When you pay rent, utilities are included. It's Wi-Fi and TV, so they have that included. A flexible rent-to-income was the main thing that got my friend in there."

"I've been to Discovery Village at Melbourne several times. What I like best is the security. They make sure that they have a good security system for visitors coming in. The place is very clean. The elevators are operational. The residents seem to be very content, and they do intermingle. It was an old hotel that they renovated. The staff seems to be very professional and very dependable. They pick up the trash and clean some of the rooms as required. The person I visit occasionally gets food from there, but basically, she does her own cooking. The price is a bit high."
