We feel at home!
My wife and I moved in 2 months ago and we can’t say enough good things about our experience so far. The staff goes out of their way in every way possible to help us. They know us and call us by name which makes us feel like we matter. The cleanliness of the community is outstanding and we have found our new apartment to be perfect for us. The activities have brought us closer to other neighbors and I have especially enjoyed the weekly card games. My wife is doing her physical therapy here and they have helped her tremendously. She has improved in every way since being in rehab prior to our move and they take special care of her, which means so much to us. We are happy!

Great experience so far!
Our experience with the care staff has been great and they have been available to address any initial concerns we had, along with the maintenance guys helping us with whatever we needed at move in and beyond. The location is convenient for us to pop in for church pick up or dinners and we are able to visit more often. The residents are very nice and we are very happy that my dad feels so comfortable.

Great visit!
I recently visited a former client/friend who moved to Grand Villa about a year ago, and she is thriving! Living alone in her large home was no longer manageable and she is noticeably happier and more social. Her apartment is decorated with all of her favorite things and she was excited to show me around. The building is bright and very clean. The people I came across were friendly and smiled and said hello. I left feeling very good knowing that my sweet friend is in a good place.

Grand Villa of Sarasota
The activities were below average and didn't offer much variety or engagement. Overall, I didn't feel the experience provided good value for the cost. I was living independently before moving in, and I found the staff to be more intrusive than supportive, which made it difficult to maintain the level of independence I was used to.

Grand Villa of Sarasota
I found them short of staff for weekends. Staff was stretched. We were there less than 2 weeks. They could not handle [name removed] as declined rapidly and had to be sent to a skilled nursing facility where he passed on [date removed]. I think they knew how upset I was. He never saw a doctor and I had a complete meltdown which is embarrassing but the nurse was lying and then they wanted me to apologize to her. It was awful. Other people think it's great and maybe he was just too far along for them to handle. They gave me all of my money back so I'm thinking they were afraid of what I might do.

I looked at three videos. Hard to envision layout without floor plan. Why couldn't the floor plan be included at the start of the video? Then you would know where the cameraman was walking. Seems like it would be easy to shoot the floor plans or input it to the video. Thanks to G. V. for sending videos.

The building was outdated and in Hurricane Zone A. The rooms were small. Also, we were not invited for lunch, therefore cannot evaluate the food or service. This was disappointing as the food quality is extremely important to me. Another feature was that there is no swimming pool.

Great visit!
My parents' friends live at Grand Villa and I was suprised at the location given that I've lived in Sarasota for years! The apartment was beautiful and they talked about how nice it is to be so close to downtown. They mentioned that they know another couple from church that lives there too, and how kind everyone has been to them. I thought it was very nice and would recommend to anyone looking at senior living.

Highly recommend!
If you’re looking for a special place for mom and dad in the Sarasota area , I highly recommend looking into Grand Villa of Sarasota. This is a wonderful, convenient, downtown location, with beautifully remodeled common areas, and apartments with pretty views and large oak trees. The community is large enough to offer a wide ray of services, but also small enough to feel intimate.

Very Nice!
My husband and I visited some friends and we liked everything that we saw. Their apartment was decorated beautifully with antiques brought from home and large oak trees outside the windows. We met their neighbor who shared that he recently moved in and was enjoying the company of new friends after losing his wife. He mentioned how nice everyone has been and they all agreed that they were very happy with the decision to make the move to Grand villa. We liked everything we saw and noticed how clean it was. We love the location and how convenient it is.

Truly a Hidden Gem
I recently visited a friend’s mother at Grand Villa. What a delightful surprise — a hidden gem in Sarasota. Amazing to be so close to downtown, with such lush tropical views. The staff were so professional and gracious showing me around. The units are modern, bright and airy. The residents I met were mostly long-time Sarasotans who seemed very happy to be there. I think my mother would love the downtown energy along with the beautiful setting. Can’t wait to bring her for a visit!

We had a wonderful experience visiting Grand Villa in Sarasota. The building is beautifully bright and impeccably clean, and seemed warm and inviting. We especially loved the back deck and screened lanai area, which we could imagine spending a lot of time on if we were to live there. The residents we saw seemed busy and friendly and we even met a few cute dogs sunning themselves outside! The location downtown makes it so convenient for us to get to church and all the other spots we currently enjoy.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Florida’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Florida’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
