The Village of Tanglewood

My uncle enjoyed The Village of Tanglewood, but it was a little farther away from family and friends than he cared for. As far as the facility and the people, it was great. They've got great staff. They were very patient with him because he doesn't walk fast. They took the time to speak to him and not to us because this is his decision, not ours. He didn't want anything too big, so we looked at one of the standard one-bedrooms. He liked the fact that they had a place where he could kind of prepare food for himself, but still have the opportunity to be able to go to the dining room. We didn't necessarily want him to have a stove anyway. It was clean. It didn't smell like you were at a place where seniors would be, so to speak.

I'm living at The Village of Tanglewood. I like it very much here. It's a first-class place. The food is excellent. All of the workers are very professional. It's a lovely facility, and it's very clean and updated. I'm enjoying it very much. I've got a full one-bedroom apartment. They have two bedrooms as well. They have more amenities than you can even use.

I am a resident of The Village of Tanglewood. This apartment is gorgeous. I have two balconies, one off the main living area, and one off the bedroom. The air conditioning works fabulously. They are beautiful. They offer more activities that I can participate in. The amenities are quite wonderful. The only thing is, they do not offer valet assistance or valet services. That would be the only issue. The only suggestion would be to add that. It's wonderful. I love it here. Their menus here are extensive. It's truly a culinary delight. You get one meal. You get breakfast every morning, and then on Sundays, they have a phenomenal brunch. You can either order lunch or dinner, but the lunch reflects dinner so you can order two entrees and two sides. They make sure everyone is well taken care of.

Mom, a native Houstonian, has lived comfortably at The Villages at Tanglewood for a year now. The casual and friendly atmosphere matches how she lived in her prior home of 20 years making the transition to independent living easier. The staff are accommodating and kind. She is still mentally and physically active and what the Villages at Tanglewood do not provide, the YMCA across the street does. When my husband and I visit from Austin, we actually stay on site in one of the apartments reserved for family guests. The food is so good, we happily eat in the restaurant where the wait staff are attentive and friendly. This is a safe and happy place for Mom.

I am a resident of The Village of Tanglewood. There isn't anything to dislike. The food is outstanding, the staff is very nice, and the facility is extremely nice. There's just nothing to complain about. It is very, very nice and everything is kept very well. They have a gym with all sorts of equipment. They have a swimming pool, a movie room, and two or three other rooms that are used for various things, including games that people want to play. They have a dining room, and they also have a mail room. They have a beauty and barber salon, but it's not owned by them. I've been to it one time and it's too expensive to attend. The food is outstanding. The dining room is very nice. It's large and very nice with white tablecloths and a very polite staff. They have card games and lots of movies. They have everything, as far as I can tell. It's very expensive, but I've heard that are other places are more expensive. I chose this one mostly because it's two blocks from my church and they will take me to church.

My parents have already been in The Village of Tanglewood for three years now. They like where they are. It's "grade A" all the way. It's very, very nice and a great place. They have people who come in and sing at Christmastime, they play bingo, and there's a calendar of events on display, like in the elevator, and it tells you what's going on throughout the day. They also have a recreation room, a swimming pool, and a fitness center, and they do special things during Easter, Memorial Day, and all that.
