Senior Management Advisors

I would recommend Grand Villa of Sarasota to others. The staff have all been friendly and helpful and the facility is clean and hazard free. My mother in law says that she likes it there. My only complaint is that visitors cannot have a meal in the dining room with the resident/their loved one. Otherwise, the experience has been very good.

The staff are friendly and seem genuinely concerned about the people who live there. They have gone out of their way to help my relatives with their small dog, when my relatives were ill. There are only 2 elevators that the clients can use, and the elevators can be inadequate, with long wait times, especially during meal hours. I think that they need to re-visit the menu and how food is prepared and served is a start. Talking to and including the residents in the process would go a long way, and is extremely important!

They don't do as much as you would like or go out of their way. Apartment sizes are good, but air conditioning sometimes doesn't work right. Prices keep going up we couldn't afford last increase!

The biggest complaint is that the actual food listed on the monthly menu - does not match what is actually served for dinner. Quite often. Disappointing if you really wanted what was listed! People are friendly, there are a lot of social activities and it is one of the nicest communities in the area.

Staff is very friendly and available to help. On site rehab is very convenient. I am not a big joiner for the activities, so I am a poor judge of that, but there always seems to be something going on. As far as the food goes, I am picky. But they could use more salt and other seasonings. And I miss casseroles with all the flavors. Less rice and more mashed potato.

They have a lot of activities, staff is generally nice. The food is just ok. My dad is happy there.

[name removed], the Director is a great leader of the entire staff. She has lots of activities all the time for the residents.

The overall appearance is happy and friendly. The staff are friendly, and the food is just OK from what I understand. Entertainment is great.

bathroom and floors should be cleaned more frequently. they need more staff. They have all been kind and gracious. A couple of the guys set up Mom's TV and hung her artwork on the walls. We tried to tip them, but they absolutely refused to accept any money.

It has a good reputation currently, although now there is new ownership and management taking over and everyone's on edge. We shall see.

I am happy with Grand Villa of Altamonte Springs where my aunt is a resident in the memory care unit. They communicate positive news about my aunt, are responsive to inquiries (I can text the unit director with any questions or concerns) and unlike most other memory care facilities, Grand Villa takes these residents on various outings — movies, museums, restaurants, and even a monthly visit to a spa for manicures and pedicures! When I was interviewing other similar communities, their administrators admitted they are not comfortable taking those with dementia on field trips, but Grand Villa thinks differently. While memory residents at other places are sitting in front of TV’s or singing Old MacDonald, those at Grand Villa are treated as if they can still learn, participate, and enjoy (on my first visit they were conducting a crocheting class!). Grand Villa also has a staff dedicated to the memory unit to include an activities director and life enrichment coordinator — at another more expensive and upscale community where my aunt previously resided, the same staff circulated between memory care and assisted living, and appeared to have no experience or insights into dealing with cognitive impairment.

The place is very clean.The staff at Grand Villa is great. Also, the food is very good.

Continually short of help. No consistency for my mom. She never knows who is going to give her meds, who is cleaning her apartment or transporting to meals. They have a HUGE problem keeping support staff. Staffing issues are definitely a con. Mom is a happy go lucky 85 year old. Staff always tell me how much they enjoy her. She's not a complainer, but is stumped/ concerned about the staffing problem.

The move in process was good. Issues with another tenant were a major problem, but got resolved. Keep clothing to a minimum. Clothing seems to get misplaced often. The room could use a little more housekeeping due to smell.

Many people have asked me about this place, the place is clean, friendly atmosphere, food is excellent! My wife is a resident and has been for a year and a half. We looked around at various facilities in the Naples area and found it is close to our home I can visit my wife often.

I'd say it's ok except for the food. So many residents complain about the food. We picked this community, because it was close to me and affordable. Residents and staff were friendly.

My loved one is currently a resident at Grand Villa of Clearwater and overall things have been good for her at this facility. The cleanliness and friendliness are good. The care services and value for cost are okay. We have had a few issues with the staff, but they seem very nice so overall I would say good. My loved one has not complained about the food, it's good. They offer plenty of activities for the residents.

Our family had an in person tour experience with Silver Creek, and it was definitely our 2nd choice we liked all we saw, but Dad had already had his heart set on the new location. The rooms were a bit smaller and the location of his room he would not have been happy.

My loved one is currently a resident at Grand Villa of Altamonte Springs and the experience at this facility has been very good so far. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The staff and care services are also great. I would recommend Grand Villa of Altamonte Springs to family and friends.

Care staff are very well. Some staff I have taken a liking to, [name removed] is wonderful. Staff is very pleasant. When ever I walk by they always say hello. [name removed] in Laundry is wonderful. I would give [name removed] in housekeeping a five star rating. Food is a hit & miss. [name removed] in Activities does a great job. Her Job is hard, she has to come up with activities everyone likes. That isn’t always easy.
