Our loved one is much happier here at Windsor Celebration than she was at a previous community

We've had a great experience so far at Avalon of Bloomfield. I would definitely recommend them. The transition for mom was very easy. It's a small facility as far as number of residents, which is a huge plus for us. The meals are great, mom hasn't complained which says a lot. She is a very picky eater and has been happy with the meals. They do offer a variety of activities and outings. Mom has enjoyed the outings, but doesn't participate in as many of the activities as it's just not her thing. The staff is extremely helpful. Facility is very clean. I would definitely recommend them!

We chose The Brielle because the location was very convenient for us, the value for the money (it was the best compared to the others we looked at) and we just really liked the facility itself. Overall it has been a really good experience and we would definitely recommend them to others looking on Staten Island.

I really liked Clarendale at Bellevue Place. I liked the fact that they had a mix between residents who were independent and then residents who needed some extra care. The sales guy that we worked with was great, he was super empathetic and we felt like he really cared.

The community is very clean, the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Before covid we were able to eat with our loved ones in the dining room, but right now with some restrictions still in place are aren't able to and therefore the meals and services for the residents could be improved. They do have various activities, they can go out in group walks, play games, enjoy the nice exercise room and take advantage of the beauty shop that is there. Our loved one has a two bedroom, with two large walk-in closets, a lovely kitchen and two bathrooms. The money is definitely a good value.

The virtual tour was very good.

My loved one is in independent living, and she's very shy. I just wish they had somebody to kind of befriend the residents a little bit, especially at the beginning. They said they were going to do that, but they didn't. The food is okay, and she can get anything she wants. The cost is on par with everybody else. I had another loved one who was in memory care for a short time, and the memory care people were phenomenal. The people who do the repairs are phenomenal as well. The front desk has one person that's very nice, and another who fills in. I don't know if they're overwhelmed, but they could be a little nicer. They have a regular cleaning service that comes in once a week to clean the apartments, and I have not seen one speck of dirt or smelled anything bad in the months that my loved one has been there. I feel like they all do this, but I feel like you're promised the moon when you write the first big check, and then it doesn't quite live up to it once you move in.

We chose Clarendale because it just looked very clean and nice and we thought it would be a good fit. The staff members are friendly as well and take great care of their residents. The room sizes here are on the smaller side but they are private and she is on the bottom floor so she is able to look outside. I do think they could improve on their response time but overall I would recommend them.

I would tell others that they seem to really be checking everybody who is coming and going with the covid issues and I think they are doing very well with the protocols. It is a nice place and I would recommend as long as you can afford it.

We moved my 88 year old mother to The Windsor just two short weeks before COVID shut the facility down. Even though we weren't able to visit her or get her completely settled, we knew she was safe, well fed and well taken care of. It gave us peace of mind which we wouldn't have had if she had still been living alone in our childhood home with us having to bring in groceries.

I would rate the staff the highest above anything, they just go above and beyond. The reason i choose this place originally was because they allow animals, and i was able to bring my dog. I just accepted the new activities chairmen position and we are currently looking to increase the activities. Right now we have arts and crafts classes, reading classes, church services, exercise classes and board games.

My husband and I just celebrated our third year of living here at Eastcastle Place, and we’ve been so pleased. Moving here was one of the best decisions we’ve made. I can’t think of a better place to be, especially at a time like right now. The staff here have been so wonderful and accommodating. Our family members are so happy that we are here as well – they know we’re in a safe place and they do not worry about us!

Very nice place. We looked at it for my mother in law. My husbands siblings chose some place closer to them. This was my first choice. Would recommend to look at it.

Without notice, I recently had to see my doctor. I called the doctor’s office and they said I could come right away. I went to see the concierge, explained the situation to her and she then contacted transportation. Within minutes I was on my way to the doctor’s office. This is a fine example of the care we receive from the able staff at the Bayshore.

When I moved to The Bayshore, my goal was to live independently with the security of knowing assisted living is always available if my health status were to change. But I also wanted a carefree lifestyle where great amenities are everywhere, a cordial and helpful staff, and services like restaurant quality meals and housekeeping are included. My life at The Bayshore not only meets those goals but far exceeds them! Activities abound in the beautiful surroundings indoors and outside! My very well appointed apartment with its carefully designed kitchen and bathroom is perfect for me! All the kitchen appliances are full sized. With the many safety features of the bathroom, I can bathe with confidence. Located on the banks of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway with a view of passing boats and Pinckney Island on the other side, this means there's always spectacular scenery looking out windows of the building. Since Pinckney Island is a Federal park, I know the trees and wildlife will be our only neighbors across the Waterway for as long as I reside here. Right after I moved in, restrictions from the US Centers for Disease Control and South Carolina DHEC went into effect protecting me and other residents from the spread of the pandemic. In short, I'm very glad I was able to become a member of this community!

I've only been here a few weeks but the experience has been quite pleasant and very friendly. They are working very hard during COVID times to keep us all safe & healthy.

The Village at The Woodlands Waterway is amazing. From the moment you pull on to the property you are greeted by a free valet service, upon entering you meet the most kind and knowledgeable front desk support. Every single person who works at the Village is one of the kindest and most knowledgeable people you will ever have the pleasure of meeting. [name removed] is an amazing director of sales and marketing. She knows every residents name, circle of friends, preferences, family member names, and even the residents pets names. The food at The Village is exceptional, the residents are so happy and kind and the awesome community is not only beautiful inside and out, it has the coolest views of The Woodlands Waterway. I would recommend The Village to anyone who is looking for exceptional senior living.

When mom was considering a move to a retirement community she had looked at several when she visited a friend who has lived at GVS for many years. Mom came home saying "I know where I am moving!" From the day plans for the move were started until today we as a family have been impressed with all aspects of her life at GVS, whether in her apartment or in the Pavilion after a hospitalization and GVS has truly become her "home." The facilities are well-maintained and whenever she has an issue in her apartment there is quick response and resolution. Pre-COVID mom had the opportunity to be involved in a number of activities and events, keeping her as busy as when she lived in her own home! Especially during these COVID times when our visits are not possible the staff and residents at GVS have more than ever become family in a way we would never have imagined. We are thankful for the logical care and steps taken to make sure the residents and staff are as safe as possible during COVID. We are grateful for all who are part of the GVS staff team and their respect, care and love for mom and the other residents.

Friendly. Helpful. Clean. Conscious on Covid precautions. People who live there look happy.
