Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle

Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle was very clean. It had a lot of amenities. The staff was amazing. The one thing that I liked about it was they have kept most of their staff since they opened, which means they take good care of their people. Usually if you have a happy staff, they in turn do a good job and take good care of the residents. They showed me a menu. I liked the fact that they have a la carte choices, if you don't like the menu for that particular meal. I toured the studio apartment, and I also saw a 1-bedroom apartment. They were very well done. They had bingo going on while I was there. There were people in the exercise room. They had physical therapy on-site, which was great. They had a hairstylist/barber shop. They had transportation to take them to grocery stores.

Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle was great, but it's not something that my parents can afford. It was a place that I would put my parents in if they could afford it. In the independent living, they had a small cooktop and a small refrigerator. There's a little kitchenette, which was very nice. The bathrooms were great. There's plenty of room. The staff was very helpful and very knowledgeable.

Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle is an older community, so it didn't have that brand new, spiffy, and beautiful look to it. The staff was excellent and answered all our questions. They've since put in some little cottages that are independent living there. They're certainly growing and changing. I saw a 1-bedroom, which is on the small side. There's not a lot of closet space and no full kitchen (just a tiny utility like kitchen). The gal that toured us through was very helpful, answered all our questions, and was very knowledgeable. The location is good. It's on a major road and easy to get to. I saw the dining room. I saw the library. Everything I saw was adequate.

My father moved into Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle about four or five days ago. I think it looks very pretty, and it almost looks like a hotel. It is very pretty. The hallways are wide and carpeted. My father went into memory care. The room is lovely. It was freshly painted, so it looks very nice. We went in and decorated. I know the all the employees eat the food so it must be okay. The food smelled good at lunch. I did not eat there, but it sure smelled good. They have common rooms. They have an arts and crafts room, and they have a social room where they can watch television. My father is in memory care. He is not in independent, nor assisted. They have those rooms, plus they have an outside area where he can go. The service dogs are there on a Friday, so he can pet the dogs. They can go out in the sun, but it is enclosed so they cannot get out. I know that they do arts and crafts. They also go get them ice cream from the van. I know they go outside to do gardening because they have a little garden. They have an activities director there. The place is very lovely.

My parents were very impressed with the staff at Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle. It was very nice. It had an opportunity for my father to receive some additional care if needed. The only problem is the rooms were a little small. The staff was very nice and very knowledgeable. They showed me a two-bedroom, a one-bedroom, and the dining area. They're all very nice, but the amount of living space was not what they were looking for. They had transportation, activities planned for them outside, and three meals a day.

Arbor Landing was not close to where we live, but the rooms were excellent. They had a video room with DVDs, plus normal activities as you would expect. They had outings and a lovely dining area. It was very good and very nice. The residents looked very content and happy.

Arbor Landing was excellent. Janet -- the director -- was excellent, beyond helpful, and professional. Our frustration is my mother doesn’t want to relocate down there next to our house, so she is probably not going there although we want her to. We were very impressed with the employees and the facility. The dining area was very neat, clean, and fresh. The whole place was great. We’re hoping my mother changes her mind, and we’ll go there. The pricing for us was well below the facility that she set into at Reilly, so it was very good for us at all counts. It’s very quiet and private. There’s not an excess of activity that I have seen at other places because sometimes when you deal with an elderly member of the family, you want some privacy.

My mother right now is in Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle. The people working there are very friendly, very helpful, and very nice. Her room is big enough. She has a one bedroom with a little sun at the end, and she has kitchen table. The price is average. They have a salon, a card room, an exercise room, a party room, and a movie room. They have a guest bathroom so the guests do not have to go the bedroom. They have a nice dining-room with a fireplace. They have a lot of activities. They have bingo, coloring, singing, and exercise. They have very excellent help there, and the residents are very nice.

We are considering Arbor Landing for our parents. They are living independently now and both drive, but after one fell and was unable to get up we realize it is time to have assistance closer than 30 mins away. My sister and I went there without an appointment to check it out and were warmly welcomed. After a brief chat, questions were answered and a tour, we were invited to bring our parents there to visit and have lunch the next day. We arrived for lunch and were shown to our table where we were served a nutritous and tasty lunch. We then received a complete tour of the apartment options, the library, the theatre, the fitness room, the nurses office and the craft room. The schedule of activties was full with a wide variety of choices to meet the needs of many different interests. We are very impressed with the cleanliness of every area ang the friendly staff and residents we met. Not one person came by without speaking to us. It is not easy to make this move for anyone, but we feel that Arbor Landing is a wonderful selection for our parents.

I am a resident of Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle. Since I do not require health or medical services, I can only rate the housekeeping and food services. The employees in these two disciplines are good. The dining services is hampered by the budget restrictions. The food is properly prepared but the quality of the food purchased is poor to fair.

Arbor Landing at Ocean Isle is in a beautiful location. It has services if need be as far as assistance with bathing and medications if necessary. All meals are also included. They have a full-time nurse that is there and nurse assistants. They have a movie theater, workout room, craft room, and they also take the residents to places. They also take the residents to doctors that are within a 30-mile radius if they need help with that. My mom has been there now for four months, and she loves it there.

Arbor Landing was very nice. I didn't see any problems with it. It's an absolutely beautiful facility, and the people who work there were willing to work with my mom's needs. She's an insulin-dependent diabetic, and she needed, 10 minutes, four times a day, for someone to come in to help with her injections. They were going to help me with that and worked out an affordable package for her. They were just terrific. The facility looked very independent, very homey, non-institutional-like. There's a lot of nature around there, and everything is bright and clean.

Arbor Landing is just a couple of miles to my home. It was an absolutely beautiful facility. It was brand new and it had only been opened for a year or two. The dining room was pretty. They did have a nice screened-in porch. Regarding their accommodations, their rooms and everything looked great. For their residents, they did have activities but I don't remember specifically what they were. They did have a gym room and a couple of other things there. They would provide three nice meals a day. They showed me a copy of the menu and it looked very nice. Overall, it was a lovely facility, I just can't get my parents to go there.

Arbor Landing is lovely but costs more. They have a homecare agency office in their building with a full time RN who directs care and several home aides that can be hired privately for the facility. It was relatively new, clean, and spacious but with grounds that were still under developed. It's quite a distance from anything else.
