Review for The Alloro at University Groves
I moved in here on very short notice and the fact that Alloro was the only facility that offered the first 2 months free made a big difference. However it was the best choice I could have made! I have met so many amazing people and new friends! It is like having a new family being here!! T

Review for The Alloro at University Groves
I moved in here on very short notice and the fact that Alloro was the only facility that offered the first 2 months free made a big difference. However it was the best choice I could have made! I have met so many amazing people and new friends! It is like having a new family being here!! The food is so much better than the last place I was in. There is only a Continental Breakfast Monday to Friday. You are on your own for the week-end!! The Chef here offers a Special Dinner menu on Tuesday and Thursday! The prices very from $[fee removed] to $[fee removed]! If you have a car and can still drive your choices are much better. There are a lot of great restaurants near by that you can choose from. The kitchens in these 2 buildings vary in the models you choose. Most models have good size and fully equipped kitchens. I myself still love cooking for myself and my friends here at Alloro!! I have met a Very Special Male Friend since I have moved in here!! He really likes my cooking!! You can be as social as you want to be here. There are many activities to enjoy and meet people!! Most of the people are very social and friendly here! The Staff here goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and welcome!! I am so happy I made the right choice to move here at this time of my LIFE!! The saying that LIFE is What you Make of It is So True!! I would give Alloro a Big 5!!! I would recommend seeing this place in Person!! The pictures do not do it justice!! The SUN program here is amazing.

Highly recommend Alloro for very independent and active seniors that are 55 and older. It is expensive, but they offer very high quality apartments. The meals are limited, but overall I would highly recommend this community.

In all categories that are listed, I would give The Alloro a 4+. What our family likes the most about the community is the modernization of the entire development and the activities. We would recommend this community to other families who may need a place for their loved ones.

Active Senior Living at The Alloro
I am currently a resident at The Alloro at University Groves. This is an excellent Independent Living apartment complex for 55+ seniors. It is ideal for active seniors who do not require constant medical attention (there is no clinical staff on site.) There are many activities geared toward seniors like exercise classes and local field trips to museums etc. The community bus also provides transportation for shopping and doctor offices, if needed. There are limited meals available daily and also weekly happy hours. Amenities include: fitness center, pickle ball court, pool and jacuzzi, gardening center, hair salon, movie theater, game room. It is a brand new apartment complex with excellent facilities. It has the feeling of a luxury condo. I highly recommend The Alloro at University Groves as a wonderful community for fully independent and active seniors.

A new adventure
We have been coming to wine Wednesday for about two months and meeting new tenants like us who are anxiously waiting to move in. We have seen all the tile and rug samples so we know what to expect in our apartments and we’ve seen the fantastic refrigerator at the clubhouse. The staff members have been very helpful and let us know what’s going on. We love the feature that the garage is right on the first floor and we will have good parking spaces.
