4 Assisted Living Communities in Fairhope, Alabama

We really liked The Brennity at Fairhope. They even had us for lunch and they had very good food. The people that work there were very nice and so were the people who live there. It's a very clean and nice area. We toured some of the places there and the cottages. It was a delightful place.

My mother is in Homestead Village of Fairhope's independent living side in a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, about 1100 sq. ft. apartment with full-size appliances in the kitchen. She can cook or there's a meal plan and a dining room. There's a pool, a gym, and covered front porches with big rocking chairs. There's 14 people in her building, and everyone at 4:00 goes out into the porch. We highly recommend it. It's very well-managed, the grounds are absolutely gorgeous, and they're friendly. They have housekeepers come every two weeks, and they are very lovely, very sweet, and very caring, but they are allowed only one hour and 15 minutes per apartment. I think the food is bland and boring. My mother doesn't like the food in the meal plan, but some of the residents like it. The CEO announced there will be a lot of changes and upgrades, like wood floors. They have one hot meal a day at lunch for the independent living, but they will have a full menu in the pub and a new chef. They have a birthday social every month, but there's no music, and no staff to lead the activities. You can have pets. I think it's well worth the cost of under $2,400, including an increase in August.
