Senior Management Advisors

It seems they have a new executive director who is better, they are reaching out more to family members, and have more activities. We would recommend someone to check it out.

My loved one had a good experience at Grand Villa of Palm Coast. The staff were wonderful and very caring with the residents. They were also kind to us each time that we were visiting. Grand Villa of Palm Coast is very clean and is a beautiful home for its residents. I would highly recommend it to others!

It's an affordable safe place for people to maintain some independence and have a place of their own. I think they maybe need a bigger budget for food? A lot of the residents end up throwing out more than they eat. Possibly a better menu or chef. I'm not living there but, it's a constant complaint I hear consistently.

The activities seem to be the best part of being there. She has found a decent community of friends and holidays are celebrated, and there are many opportunities to participate. The people do a decent job and have been helpful. The quality of meals could definitely use improvement. they are definitely increasing costs a lot and decreasing some included services, like washing sheets that used to be included and now are an extra charge.

What has made Grand VIlla such a great experience so far for our family is definitely the staff, and we would recommend them to other families based on the experience we have had so far. Friendly staff, nice community, would recommend if they clean up the problems they have with their kitchen and unsafe food temperatures.

My Mom loves it there! The place is well maintained but can use a few upgrades. People and staff are friendly. I would recommend.

The staff is helpful and attentive and responds to needs quickly. Everyone there just seems so happy!

I can only go by what my loved one has been telling me. The food is not good. She's quite disappointed in that. In regard to the healthcare services. I'm a little disappointed as we did have an incident and incident and it took quite a lot to get someone there to help her. Other than that she seems happy and comfortable.

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.

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.

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.
