10 Assisted Living Communities in Palm Harbor, Florida

Sandra

Manor Care was nice and clean. My friend was in rehab. I didn't see as much of it as the others. My friend's room was a nice size and it was clean. It was rehab, so it was just short-term. It was OK. I saw the main entry and then the hallway getting to her room, but it wasn't anything outstanding.

Stratford Court of Palm Harbor is great. It's a beautiful facility with great rooms, offerings, and amenities, but their availability is not because you got to go on a wait list for two to four months. We had lunch and the food was delivious and the menu was fabulous. The dining area was great, with white tablecloths on all the tables. They had a workout facility, a library with computers, an outdoor living space with a pool, and an area in the middle of the first floor which is a large gathering place where residents could gather and visit. They had several activities room including a combination card and game room. The place looks modern, new, very fresh, and in absolutely good condition. I liked all of the staff.

Stratford Court of Palm Harbor was very nice and very clean. The one-bedroom was very nice. The staff was very pleasant. They have a courtyard and there's a golf course nearby. The parking was fine. The building was nice. We just stopped in unexpected, but they were very gracious.

It is beautiful. It's like a five-star hotel. Cindy was very pleasant, lovely, and still keeps in contact with me to see how my mom is doing. There were activities going on there, but it was kind of quiet. It wasn't really busy, but we could tell things were happening soon. It was a much larger place, but it was welcoming. They have beautiful grounds. It was very impressive.

St. Mark Village is a buy-in location, quite expensive, but it seems very nice. Their activities are right up there. The condition of the building was a five. The staff is very helpful. Also it is in a very good location right next to a shopping center.

Stratford Court of Palm Harbor is a notch above as far as the furnishing and the presentation of all the facilities. However, the units themselves are a step below. What stood out to me is the quality of the furnishings on the main floor where all the activities take place. It is very well decorated. It has a homey feel to it. The people, not only the staff, but the residents, seem friendly as well. The food is very good. They have a salad bar and you have a choice of appetizers, entrees, sides, and desserts for the evening meal. They have another whole page where they have daily items that you can choose from, like at a restaurant. The activities looked very nice. The rooms that they have for the different activities were nicely decorated. They have a lot going on there. It is a good, big size place, so I'm sure they can afford to do more as far as the staff and so forth.

Beth

Stratford Court of Palm Harbor is a nice place and Palm Harbor is a nice location. The only negative is the rooms are a little small, but other than that, it's got everything my mother needs. They have a Bridge club, little coffee shop, crocheting club restaurant, happy hour on Friday nights, they do banking and shopping, and once a week light housekeeping and changing the sheets. I won't worry about her there because I feel confident in them and that she'll be well taken care of. It's clean, nice, a little dated, but it's in very good shape. The staff is great and really nice.

Stratford Court of Palm Harbor was very nice, and Julie, who gave us the tour, was wonderful. Not only did she take her time with my mother and answered our questions, but she followed up later. We were very pleased with the community. They provided us with lunch, which was very good, so our visit was good all the way around. There's so many things to do in the community. My mother will give up her driver's license, so she can get a shuttle to the grocery store, drug store, the mall, or wherever she wants to go. It's nice. Julie described the place as like a cruise ship on land, and it kind of is. There's just a lot to do. That I think is the most appealing part. They provide one meal a day that you can order off a menu, and it can be any meal of the day. My mother can also cook dinner if she wants to, because she'll have a kitchen. So that's a nice amenity. They do your linens, like towels and sheets, which is surprising. That's part of the housekeeping services. The staff was wonderful, and everybody there I noticed didn't make us feel rushed, from the server we had, to our lunch with Julie who showed us around, to the receptionist. It was only a couple hours that we were there, but I really felt that they cater to the seniors, and it made me feel like my mother will be in good hands there. I just had a tuna sandwich for lunch, but it's very nice for what it is. The surroundings and ambience of the room was nice and the food was good.

We toured Stratford Court. It's very nice. I may consider them. The staff member who assisted me was very good and very knowledgeable. She took us around and we had a meal there. The food was very good. The dining area was beautiful.
