Review for Sun City Senior Living
The staff is very caring. My Father was here and now my Aunt. Food is good and they keep family informed of any issues or staffing changes. They have activities for the residents and take them out to Walmart restaurants appointments etc. I've been very pleased

Do not do business with this facility! My mother put down a deposit of $[removed] to rent one of their rooms in [date removed] with her debit card. On [date removed], I had advised the director that my mother changed her mind about renting the room. The director dvised me that she would immediately process her refund of the $[removed] but the refund would be in the form of a check and it would take 30 to 45 days to be mailed out from their California corporate office. When they finally sent her her refund they placed a stop payment on the check. The direct advised me that the corporate office said that my mother's bank gave her a credit for the refund amount. I told the director is an absolute lie as I have provided her with my mother's bank statements to show no credit was given. I asked for proof that my mother's bank said she received a credit and they have not provided it. The director said er supervisor would have them expedite a new check. Its been 4 months and no refund has been given. Total scam.

I want to express my sincere appreciation for Sun City Senior Living and their outstanding director, [name removed]. During a recent lightning strike that caused a power outage at the facility, [name removed] went above and beyond to keep families informed every step of the way. From the very beginning, he sent timely and clear updates about the situation, including what repairs were being made and how long they might take. Even without a concrete restoration time, his consistent communication brought comfort and reassurance to families like mine. What impressed me most was [name removed] commitment to the residents’ well-being. He made sure every single resident was checked on hourly, regardless of their service plan or needs, showing a true dedication to care and compassion. Thanks to his leadership, professionalism, and empathy, residents were safe and cared for, and families felt connected and informed throughout the outtage.

Last week I went to see my Mom, went in her room her toilet was a mess, I needed a plunger because her toilet was clogged at the memory care they did not have one and a staff member told me she did see her toilet had a mess and was waiting for housekeeping, I went to the front desk and she tried calling Mnt they were gone, but she did find a plugger for me, also I saw that her close were not clean and she had about two weeks' worth of cloth in the hamper my sister said the week before she had spoken to a staff member and they told her they would get housekeeping on it and they still never showed up, I was going to was them because house keeping was not there and both machines were full with wet clothes, that is not sanitary cloth smell if kept wet too long. I did report this and haven't heard from anyone.

Administrative staff are very proactive when l meet with them. Staff in Memory Care are attentive to the residents. I like that there is a barber on the premises. The facility has had special events for the residents, which has included some themed dining and music.

I am aware that my brother does not get a diabetic menu. He is served meals that are not good for him. His apartment is never clean when I visit. Cleaning staff needs help. I think there needs to be more activities for men. Most are geared to women.

They better be able to do everything own their own, even though it's listed assistant living, my mother, didn't get that much assistance from the staff. I just read some of the reviews and no way this place is a 5 star

We couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention our mother receives at Sun City Senior Living! The staff is incredibly kind, professional, and have gone the extra mile to make her feel at home. The community is clean, warm and welcoming, and there are plenty of engaging activities every week. It gives our family great peace of mind knowing she’s in such good hands. Highly recommended!

I just moved in yesterday from up north after my son said he found a great place in Sun City Center so I can be closer to my family. I have had a very very good experience here. I am glad to be here. Everyone is very friendly.

In the past six months my mom has been through some rough stuff. She's happier here with having a privacy and engaging with others that are on the same wave length as her. The move in process was smooth.

Communication is big. The staff I don't know is fully attentive because we went in on Mother's Day to visit her and she was soaked in urine and we told them that the chair was wet and nobody clean the chair

Very friendly staff, [name removed] is an angel! Beautiful and clean facility. Lots of areas to relax in and socialize, inside and out! Very nice flooring and lights throughout the Center. Gorgeous area for all 3 meals, not assigned seating, great menus. I could not find one negative thing to comment on! I love my studio.

[name removed] was prepared and enthusiastic about our visit. My mom liked the fact that they have a juice/water machine available 24/7 for when she is thirsty. The also offer bingo 6 days a week which is a big plus. They do several activities throughout the month and the residents seemed happy and excited to be part of the community. The price was very reasonable for the services that they offer. Their app actually works and easily shows you a detailed summary of the charges for each month. As of now, it has been a great experience with no surprises.

They are really good about communicating with any updates about the facility the staff or their residences. They have in-house doctors and will let you know if there's any change in health or medications. They do a really good job of providing things for them to do, such as trips, entertainment, crafts etc.. Everyone is. really friendly and caring.

My husband began his residency on [date removed]. I was stressed, out helper friends were stressed and very sad. Every staff member was ready with a quick hug and assurances that he would be fine. My call the next morning was confirmed that he was good!

-New Years Eve: She went to Urgent Care. Then there were about ten phone calls just to get her a ride back. -Outings: There hasn't seemed to have been any or just not well communicated / easy. -The billing has been an issue, not a huge deal, just annoying. Room was nice / good size. In memory care we were disappointed with activities: didn't seem to be many. The outdoor area they have also doesn't feel outdoor no sky.

My dad has been at Sun City Senior Living for 10 months. The facilities are spacious and bright. The fireplace in the foyer makes a warm, comfortable setting for residents to gather during the cold spells, and the backyard lanais are great gathering places during warmer weather. The best part of SCSL is the staff. They are very accommodating to residents and their families. Daily activities keep residents active and involved. There are trips to restaurants and stores on their private bus, and a December trip to look at Christmas lights! Families are invited to special events at the facilities and, of course, are welcomed daily. I have looked at many facilities in this area, and I believe I have picked the best one for Dad.
