Very friendly and lots of places to go to get fresh air and have buses to take you shopping. They need better communication between the selling manager and when someone needs special assistance. They told us one price and then they made it seem like the things that the person would need assistance with that all of It would also be included with the price. Little did we know that they did an assessment of my friend but failed to tell me , who was the power of attorney and signed the papers that there would be extra charges for this. So we were hit with some big fees. Our Brookdale experience. I would recommend it b/c it's one of the more affordable places. They could use some new carpeting in the place

In six months I've found a community of new interesting friends and opportunities to participate in shared activities. I was so amazed how quickly the staff knew my name and special interests, even giving me the opportunity to continue my teaching career. I never felt like an outsider because I was soon invited to be an ambassador, a role allowing me to, not only meet and greet each new resident, but to connect with every resident. I have had excellent care when I've had health issues, including my dietary needs. For the first time in 50 years of Sarasota hurricanes, I felt safe and at peace during the last three while here at Brookdale. My studio apartment is my happy place and I appreciate how housekeeping and maintenance help me keep in clean and comfortable.

This community is such a clean and beautiful place. The staff and residents were very friendly and introduced themselves to us on our tour. The rooms were large and we loved the kitchenette and walk in closets.

The residents seem happy and busy. The staff is friendly to visitors and seems to truly care about the residents. There are all kinds of engaging adult activities. I’ve seen them playing indoor volleyball. They go out to lunch at local restaurants. Holiday celebrations are made special with family and friends visiting and live music.

Once I placed my request through “A Place for Mom.”I was introduced to BrookDale Colonial Park and several other Senior Communities. I was struck by Breanna’s warm informative information and monthly cost. She was willing to set up a visit for mom to see the life style and apartments ,viewing the outside grounds and accommodations for seniors. Working through the vacancies was a smooth transition. Although there are always hiccups.On the whole mom settled in with a few living adjustments. Thank you BrookDale Colonial Park for listening to my concerns and your friendly approach.

My mother has been at Brookdale Colonial Park for almost 4 years. She and her husband were happy and made friends with other residents and staff. Her husband passed last year. The staff has been so kind in supporting her through her rough times and the good times. I feel so relieved she is safe and in such good hands. Thank you, Brookdale Colonial Park!

Mom has been at this Brookdale for about two years. There has been a lot of stability and consistency in the staff. It has helped to build relationships and trust over this time. Overall, we are very pleased with this facility and location.

I would absolutely recommend. I think they have had some staffing issues, but that's very common.

The staff paid personal attention to each resident which was very much appreciated. My Dad was a Navy vet and he said before he moved in that he liked just about any food because of his years on board ships. But it turned out the food was the only thing he didn't like at Brookdale. One of his friends complained to the director and he said there was nothing they could do to change it.

I like them and would recommend them. I did not review other locations before choosing this, but the single level was one positive that I really liked.

The Sales Manager has been so helpful from the very beginning. We have had so many questions and she has been so honest and patient. She definitely makes the lifestyle transition so easy and peaceful.

From the tour, evaluation and transition into Brookdale, everyone was professional and patient. My mother’s accommodations were clean and updated. We liked the tiered, ala carte services. Although every day comes with new challenges and emotions, the staff supports the residents to the best of their abilities.

My loved one is currently a resident at Brookdale Colonial Park and most everything has been great for him at this facility so far. The cleanliness is great, however I was very disappointed in the condition of his bathroom. There was urine on the toilet and the sink and room were dirty. Also, one suggestion for improvement: they need to inform new residents of all of the activities. We had to find out many things on our own. We never got an orientation for the facility and didn't know about the hair salon or all of the great activities provided.
