Independent Living Communities in Port Charlotte, FL

"I toured Elison Assisted Living of Bella Vita. It was very nice and the people were very nice. The staff was excellent. The dining area looks nice. I just like the overall layout of it."

"My experience here at The Goldton at Venice has been wonderful. The place is great. They have all kinds of amenities to do there. I would recommend it to anybody. They have fine dining and a bar. They have a heated in-ground swimming pool that's saltwater. They have a movie theater, a library, and a beauty salon. The list goes on and on. The food is excellent. Their dining area is very clean and very nice. They have a dining room downstairs that's upscale to where you have lots of nice food."

"I liked Atrium at Liberty Park. I would give them a high grade. I had a room reserved for my mother, but she wouldn't go. I had to give it up because they were getting full. I liked that one better than where she is currently. They've got very friendly staff. Things were easy to find. People were willing to help you. There were choices of rooms. They had a room where she was going to be on the first floor, right by everything, but she wouldn't go, so I couldn't make her. It's brand new."

"We visited the Seaside Springs Retirement Community. It's a very clean facility. We were able to have a Sunday brunch there. It was very good food. They have physical rehabilitation. They have exercise facilities. They have outdoor areas where you can just go out and get some sunshine and walk around. They have parking areas for residents if they're driving. They also offer transportation usually within a ten-mile radius of the facility. If you want to use that for doctor's appointments, salons, or for your shopping, that's fine. All these facilities seem to have the same programs. I thought Seaside Springs was unique in that the size of the facility and the units that they have are the same around the country, wherever they're located and it's the same construction pattern. The tour director was very good and spoke very highly of the place. His mother lives there, so apparently, she's very happy. The room size was fine. They did not have a full kitchen. It had a nice refrigerator. They had a microwave, but no stove. The dining area was very good."

"We toured a number of Independent and Assisted Living facilities to find the best place for my Dad. The Galley at Cape Coral was and is the perfect fit for him. The staff is helpful and friendly, the amenities are amazing and his new apartment is exactly what we were looking for. We couldn’t have found a better place for our Dad to thrive and feel at home."

"I love Highpoint at Cape Coral. They're very friendly people. I didn't try the food, but the menu looked really nice. The facility is more established, but still very nice. The rooms were very beautiful inside. The staff was so caring and just wonderful with all the residents."

"We chose River Commons because my husband is a classical pianist. One Monday a month they play at River Commons, and I drive my husband there. I decided years ago that this would be the place I would like to live, so I'm moving in. I'm getting adequate space, and I'm getting an alcove. The people seem so happy there and so relaxed. I was going to move in there a year or so ago, but COVID hit. They have three meals a day, so I don't have to cook or buy groceries. There's a pool, and they have pool aerobics. They have the usual activities, music, and an exercise room. It's very comfortable and very pleasant. The food is very good, though I've only had one meal."

They have bingo, Christmas parties, and cook outs. "

"I am a resident of Truewood by Merrill, Charlotte Center, and I don't feel like I'm in a nursing home. The staff is wonderful. The food is great, but I'm not a big eater, so I don't eat it all the time. The facility is great. They're okay. They offer bingo and ice cream socials. They offer a lot. I'm in an assisted living unit, and I would rather have one that has a bedroom. This is all one room, which I like."

"My mother moved into North Port Pines. I like everything about it. It's clean. They're caring. She likes the food, it's good and hot. They do her laundry. They make sure she has her meds. It's a beautiful place. They have a variety of activities. They do have bingo, movie nights, music, karaoke, game nights, and they even have outings where they can go out to a restaurant. Her room is nice. She's got a little living room, a kitchen, her bathroom, and her bedroom with lots of closets. The bathroom is safe with all the grab bars. There's a call button in all the rooms with long cords. The staff is very friendly, from the custodians to the management. I've never run across anyone there that's not been nice. It's a good value for the money. It's just a great place, and she likes it. She's happy there, and that's important. We visited a lot of places around North Port, and even a couple in Venice, and this was, by far, the best."

"My husband is at Gardens of North Port. I would recommend them because they help me and they're helping my husband now. He has only been there for a week, and I go every day for 3 or 4 hours because I'm trying to get him to adjust because he has a little bit of dementia from his Parkinson's, which is a little bit more complicated. They're very caring. It's assisted living, but they have step-up care. They don't leave you in your room. They take you out to your breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have you in the common area so they can keep an eye on you and keep you motivated with other people, and so far, I'm fine with it. My husband is doing pretty good. He is out there being more social. He is not in this hospital setting type; he is out there with other people. They have a happy hour on Friday, and they have little music and all this kind of stuff. They do stuff with them. I was very nervous about leaving him there, and so I spent the night there, and so they're very accommodating. I can't ask for more. They have different levels of people. They have two different dining rooms. In the dining room where my husband is, they take everybody to their tables in this dining room. They feed themselves, but they're not as up and going as the other dining room people are, so they have kind of separated in that way. It's all decorated for Christmas. Every room has some Christmas stuff in it, lights and trees everywhere. And the staff is good to the patients. In the room, you have a bed, a dresser, and a nightstand. They also have single rooms and shared rooms. I have a shared room right now for my husband but there's nobody in there right now. They also have a room that is more like a little suite. It has a refrigerator and a sink. They have some rooms that look like they have a little living room thing, and then you walk over here and then there's your bedroom. They have couples there. It's like a little apartment and it's kind of cute. And the community is gated, too. You have to hit a button to come in. "

"I will be moving into Willow Creek Apartments. They're not luxury apartments, but they're affordable and decent. They have two nice, good-sized bedrooms, and two bathrooms. So if my children visit, they'll have a bedroom and bathroom to use. It's not that big of an apartment, but it's basic and decent. They have a stove and a refrigerator. They don't have a microwave. They have a dishwasher too. The staff was great. They have a pool. They do allow pets."
