Sunshine Retirement Living LLC

My mother is very happy here and I can't think of anything negative to say, the positives are shes happy there and they are remodling, so thats an intrusion on everybodys life...she's ready for the new carpet to be in. I think she likes being where she is because shes a big city girl and we tried her living in Talahassee with me and that was too small for her. Shes very close to Roswell rd. and the location is really good for her. Shes met alot of new people and shes participating. All in all im very happy with her there and I dont have to woryr about her falling, even if she did I know they would be able to take care of her.

We met with Ed and Mona Fletcher the on-site managers of this Sunshine Community. They seem to work really hard and are very involved in the Dunwoody Pines community. I was surprised that a good portion of the residents seemed to be male. This place felt older than the two others we saw in the area. The surfaces were worn and tired looking, we were immediately told that new patio cushions had been ordered, the ones there were pretty bad, no one was on the patio using them when we toured. They do have a rather big pool that was pristine. No one was swimming but there were a couple of residents hanging out by it. The activities director is young and very energetic. They have a greenhouse that they are beginning to teach residents about gardening in. They are vey pet friendly, we saw a number of residents out walking their dogs. The cost is $2135 for a one bedroom on the first floor, it's a little more if you want a higher floor. The facility only has four floors. They will clean apartments but will not clean resident's linens, they have laundry facilities but do not offer laundry services. It looks like they only offer independent living, their rate sheet does not mention any other levels of care. Since this facility is older than others we've toured, they have one large activity room that groups section off in, so one group will be playing cards, while another wraps gifts, or plays bingo.

The location was close to where my father in law lived. Other properties were the same layout but he needed an all inclusive property that included meals. Price was a factor when choosing this community. Room is less then 300 sqft and seems like it could be a little bigger for the price

Two bedroom. Live in managers who are in dining room daily getting to know people. Just drop in for lunch. 145 units. 900 square feet 2 bedroom with good floor plan.

very impressed!!!! i would recomend this to any one.!

Liked it, especially the freedom. Apartment very clean. A little expensive. Beauty shop, poker night.

i was very impressed with the Haven and the director was so enthusiastic and helpful, My hesitation is unlocked doors.

Tour completed. Facility undergoing facelift (carpeting and painting) as well as AC being worked on. Staff very friendly and open.

Strong contender if I could convince my dad

Toured today. Nice apartments. Plenty of room. Range $2100-2500. Can't use long term care insurance, except on additional help. Laundry not included, but available for you to use for free. Can use veterans insurance. 3 meals daily, any time seating.

We like it! At least my brother and I do. Love the patio apartments with outside entrances. Common areas feel comfortable and inviting. Like concept of on-site managers who live there. Director is down to earth and personable. Not at all corporate. Dad will like her.

very nice liked it

Great studio, lots of closet. great managers, older population near dr and hospital, church, no art,

Much brighter physical space, although less nicely decorated than the Conservatory.

Very nice! Love that it has a balcony option and is even a complex that I could move into and be close by. Loved that it was very hands on, well kept and also had a strong community feeling.

I loved the place. The apartments are great. Independent living the same as assisted living. They have a computer lab. Most of the staff has been there 10 or more years. The cost is the only down side.

she liked this one a lot. the one bedroom is pretty small, but I don't think we can afford the 2 bedroom.

Like, price is right, but Independent living-like Larry's mom.

No longer there but in my approximate 5 months, did not have a very pleasant experience there. Director whom ran the place was all about only being ran her way, did not want to make any exceptions. Food overall was not very good, they had some issues with Kitchen staff and keeping cook in house. When first arrived they had options of Three meals to chose from, but when had left they were down to just one daily option. Would have to agree to staff when asked generally once a week, if weren't around then they wouldn't clean and do general maintenance unless you had agreed to it. I believe they should have been doing these weekly without asking. When they did do the cleaning though did do a thorough job in our rooms but seemed quite rushed. Also had continued bad experience with below neighbor as that person was a smoker and also had constant loud music playing, eventually was able to move but took over two months to do so. The residents for most part were very friendly and have made a few friends from there. They would make announcements on what the lunches or meals were going to be. Director said upper management is handing out surveys at that time and had asked them not to leave any negative or bad feedback.

The staff wasn’t particularly outgoing or pleasant. Maybe they were busy, but it just wasn’t overly welcoming. The sales person was nice, but of course that's their job. They seemed to be very accommodating though. They remodel the rooms before people come in, and they were going to remodel according to my loved one's preferences.
