On the independent side they should have it cooked there not Reheated which dries the food out to the point that they leave because they are unable to eat it. Also quite a few of the weight staff are very rude. They just drop the plates in front of the resident. They are not trained.

Our experience
Most everyone at Portside at Grande Dunes seems happy. They have a good Church service there onsite each week on Saturday, mom and Frank seem to be very happy. The staff is continuing to push them with physical therapy of some type pretty much every week day which is so good for them. They have many options for physical therapy too

Great first impression/not meeting expectations
My mom has made friends there and she likes her little social group but she does keep to her apartment a lot lately because the communication has been so bad there. Many changes over the year, on the third exec director, and have had too many chef changes and some weeks without a head chef, food has been bad. She pays for the meals it is all included but instead she buys groceries and cooks for herself. They lost the cleaning crew and the regular cleaning schedule lapsed, also included in her monthly rent, they never communicated what happened or when it would restart. My mom moved in under a special rate, locked in for two years, it is almost [fee removed] for a one bedroom apt, it includes all amenities, meals, weekly cleaning and rides to appointments but as you heard, she is not using much of it. In one year I am sure her rate will skyrocket, other folks with a 1 bedroom pay over [fee removed]!! She won't be able to pay that, especially if things stay as they are! So many other little things, she is always calling and complaining to me. I had a long talk with the prior executive director but a week later she was gone!

I was previously a resident at Portside at Grande Dunes. I would not recommend Portside to anyone. The meals were very repetitive and not that good. The two of us were paying almost $[removed] a month and it is definitely not worth it.

I am currently a resident at Portside at Grande Dunes and most everything has been great for me so far. The move in process went smoothly. The staff is great. The meals give good alternatives if you don't want the listed entrees. The other residents here are okay, but some tend to be very cliquish. Overall, I would recommend Portside at Grande Dunes to others.

Not living up to marketing materials
My Mom has been living at Portside since November, 2022. We've seen constant turnover across key management positions, poor food service quality, and two price increases. It's a beautiful building, but maybe their wage schedule isn't right for the area.

Care & food did improve. The management does listen and will improve the issues (if you talk to upper management). Make sure they are certified and or trained properly to assist for certain conditions. Like my mom was wearing a back brace after a back up operation and they were unable to put this brace on properly and none of them said they had ever been trained.

We are enjoying Portside, the staff that deal day to day with my parents are wonderful, kind, empathetic. While the medical staff are good, they are not easy to get ahold of so I haven't enjoyed that as much. The front desk people are wonderful and nice with my parents, the dining room staff have lots of patience! We have enjoyed the food here, surprisingly. The homemade soups are very good. My father is dying, but we will be keeping my mom in the same lovely two bedroom unit. It's large and airy.

Our families experience
When it comes to the activities, there could be more of a variety, seems the same activities every week. It is very expensive, should have an option to opt out of the dining to save money. My mom eats and cooks in her apt, the dining room is a bit disorganized and the food is hit or miss. I would hope this helps them make improvements. This is just our experience, my mom says other voice similar concerns but many people are very happy there.

All of them a 5! Let me tell you are… My mom actually hasn't moved in but she did sign the contract and she's paying… She has to sell her house and it hasn't sold yet. They have been so nice to work with us to keep the cost down I just talked with the executive Director yesterday and he's doing all he can to make it happen… They are truly amazing there! Based on the experience we have had so far, we would absolutely recommend Portside to other families!

We picked this community because, I was impressed by the look as wells as the sales person. The residents were friendly. They have struggled with care givers and med techs. The care that they are providing is not what was promised. I am interested to see the changes in the near future.

My mother passed in November 2021. Dad was so confused and they took great care of him. We chose this facility because it had large rooms and a clean look. The staff have been great. They keep us informed about everything. Housekeeping and laundry are included, also 3 daily meals that smell delicious. They have activities. I would recommend them to family and friends.

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. I think the staff are kind and go above and beyond to assist with Amazon orders and other things. The cost is higher. The meals aren't chef prepared meals that were promised. They haven't been able to meet the dietary restrictions of my loved one. The shuttle is supposed to take the residents anywhere they need to go. The shuttle is currently only able to go to doctor appointments and that is only two days a week. This is disappointing as my loved one wanted to explore the neighborhood more.

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:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and 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 you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the South Carolina regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections 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 community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about South Carolina regulations for Assisted Living.
