New facility, clean and nicely decorated. Staff very friendly, menu looks good, outdoor areas clean and soothing, units are of average size and thoughtfully laid out.

I am sure it will be as beautiful and caring as all the other HarborChase communities.

Our mother was extremely reluctant to give up her beautiful home and relocate to an Assisted Living facility. The management and staff at Harbor Chase have, from her arrival, been welcoming, kind, engaging, and helpful. As time has passed she has become very comfortable and happy, largely due to an attentive, caring staff, friendly residents, a lovely apartment, a large outdoor courtyard which she frequents several times a day, and an attractive and well run facility. She has found a new home. We are well aware that difficult challenges lie ahead, and hopefully, Harbor Chase can meet her needs for years to come. We have seen a fair amount of turnover, and what appears to be some understaffing, especially in the dining room. We have heard that in the Memory Care unit, understaffing is also an issue but do not have first hand experience with that unit. It is difficult for people to stick with low paying jobs in a competitive labor market. But people must go where they can make the most money and that appears to be a factor in the turnover. The new chef at Harbor Chase has infused the dining room with energy and delicious fare and, we are told, is a delightful personality. We are aware that regulations and rules dictate many policies. Knowing that having a purpose in life is essential to all our well being, we wish the residents had more opportunities to engage in activities that better the lives of both Harbor Chase residents and, indeed, the Sarasota community at large. We, as family members, would be very willing to participate in, and support, such activities. All in all, it has been a very positive move for our mother, and our family, and we are grateful to Harbor Chase. We look forward to continuing to be partners in our mother's care and participating members of the Harbor Chase community.

Harbor Chase is the best in the area. My husband is loved and well cared for. We are grateful!

Please understand that I never rate companies for doing a great job...But I must take a moment to share my story with the world. [Name removed] was an angel when it came to helping me and my family selecting a place for my mother. [Name removed] worked closely with us, she answered every question that we had and not only did she explain it but she showed us how the program work. Here is what Mrs. [name removed] did, when we brought our mom to visit the facility. Our mom was in the state of mind that we were throwing her away or placing her in a place where she would not be well taken care of... so when we showed up my mom began to cry... and Mrs. [name removed] met our mom and simply gave our mom a hug. Mrs. [name removed] hug was like the hug you received from your mom as a child which make you feel safe and warm. I knew we had chosen the right place. With a Caring Angel " Mrs. [name removed]. I recommend this place and would tell anyone it was a blessing that our family was brought to Harbor Chase. Just want to THANK all the staff members at Harbor Chase for Caring for the most precious person in my life. My Mom.

I visit this Community on a weekly basis. I work for a local Home Health Company. Sabal Palms is beautiful! Very Clean, and no bad smells! I have some of their Residents during an Activity, they looked like they were having fun, very engaged. I have also been there during meal time, and the food looks and smells delicious! I would definitely recommend Sabal Palms to anyone looking for Assisted Living.

By far a great place for mom , dad or any loved one in your family. Staff is always there to help with everything and anything.

Wow! What a gorgeous community. I have been to many properties and this by far is the best I have seen for size, color scheme, location and friendliness. The pricing is very competitive as well. If you have a loved one who needs assistance or memory care, go see Sabal Palms.

This was the Taj Mahal of Assisted living. I want to live there. The place is so beautiful. The dining room has many different rooms inside and outside. We were invited for lunch. Food was amazing. The utensils were real silver. If you can afford the high price, this place was awesome

Very nice facility with many options for residents. Atmosphere was quite appealing. Provides all of the services we are looking for.

I do not hesitate to recommend Harbor Chase in Naperville. Choosing an Assisted Living facility for my mom was one of the hardest things we have had to do. My mom needed special attention after her recent surgery. None of us were planning on her recovery also including having to move her from her home! It was a super stressful time but from the very beginning, they listened to our concerns about my moms care and they worked with us to coordinate all of the services that she needed! The staff is so attentive and kind, the building is beautiful, the food choices are fun and it is great that there are different restaurants to choose from each day. My mom has made some new friends and today she told me that she is glad to be there. You have no idea how much those words mean to our family.

Beautiful, lively atmosphere. Great amenities, warm and caring reception. Fresh flowers on the tables. Music in the background. Lots of activities for residents. Well-appointed apartments. Staff was friendly. I was impressed with the dining options and the menus.

A correction to my previous post about the toilet paper, it’s now included. It was my misunderstanding. The director is very responsive to any concerns you may have.

My loved one lived in HarborChase for a short time, but we removed her after she suffered three falls in a span of ten days. After our experience, there, I feel that the community is just too big for my loved one to walk around confidently, and I feel that the staff did not watch the residents as much as I would have liked.

I've been to a lot of assisted living facilities over the past 7 years, and I didn't know that a place could exist that did not look or seem like an assisted living facility. This is a "Four Seasons Resort" compared to everything else I've experienced with my mom, which would be "The Best Western". It's a choice. The benefits are way beyond anything I've ever seen in this industry.

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Mother. This community is huge and beautiful. I went here several times to look at it and the person who gave me the tour was so sweet. It is a new facility and if she didn’t know the answer to one of my questions, she got back to me a little later. However, this community is more for the younger and active people. I didn’t pick this facility because it just didn’t fit our needs. I would recommend this facility to other families.

HarberChase has been wonderful. The people there are very personal and very kind, and they have spent a lot of time training about my loved one's prosthetic. They have been really accommodating with my loved one's physical therapy schedule. The food here is excellent, and I love that it is a smaller community as well. I knew that my loved one would do much better in a smaller community. HarborChse is an excellent place, and I'd recommend it to others.

Beautiful new community. Spacious living areas, plenty of amenities, lovely decor. Only drawback is that there are only two 2 bedroom units at this facility.

During the recent Hurricane Irma I was privileged to observe first hand how the extremely dedicated Care Partners and caring Management Staff made the most of every opportunity to insure the health, safety and well being of each and every resident. This despite the extreme circumstances ( at times no power, no A/C, no phone, cable TV or internet, etc.). With over 300 people in the building at various times, this daunting challenge was more than met by an extremely capable staff, management and nursing team, and an Executive Director who stayed at the property for over a week, as did many other managers! Care for the residents, both assisted living and memory care was indeed Job #1. Ask yourself, in any future major storm, would you want your loved one at other place other than HarborChase of Sarasota? I think not!
