My parents are in Aston Gardens right now. The management treats them very poorly. Like Mom and Dad got their breakfast and they asked for prune juice. They are allowed to pick up six drinks for several days, and the people said, "No, you can't have six, you can only have four." These people who go there are paying big bucks, like close to $5,000 a month and they're told that they can't have two extra glasses of prune juice? When they first moved in there was furniture in the lobby that had been so worn it was threadbare. There were weeds around the pool. My 92-year-old father was so disgusted with it that he finally weeded around the pool himself. If you talked to the management about it they would actually say to people, "If you don't like it here, you can go somewhere else," instead of fixing the problems. The management instead of fixing things would say, "Oh, of course." They take it personally and they don't accommodate the people there. They joke to themselves saying, "Oh we're the children, we're treated like children," but for people who are paying this kind of money they don't accommodate them. They go above and beyond to help the independent living people. Here, it's like a battle to get anything done. The umbrellas at the pool are supposed to be put up every morning, but they're not. These are seniors so they complain that the umbrellas aren't up. The solution to that was they took the umbrellas away. These are old people who need the umbrellas to sit under because it's hot out. But then when management came to check everything, the umbrellas were out and opened. The food, before COVID, was a five, but now it's a thee. Their apartment would be a five; it was lovely. The amenities, the pool and all that, would be a five. The dining room staff is a five and management is a two. The activities director is wonderful, she is a five. The value for money is a three, but housekeeping is minimal.

We saw the memory care of Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe. We didn’t see any residents and the director said they were probably sleeping. He took us to a room which was too cold that none of us could stay in that room; we had to go out. We also didn’t like that everything is dark brown or in dark tones. All the places were dark; they looked like dungeons. The independent living and the assisted living were beautiful. They were bright and cheerful.

Aston Gardens was a top-of-the-line place. We did not eat there, but I talked to some of the residents who said the food was wonderful. Their facilities were all at the top level. The personnel was very good, well-informed about their place, and presented it all very well. I saw more going on at Aston Gardens than in some of the others. The card room had all four tables filled with different groups playing different games. There was a group out in the pool exercising, and someone was in the weight room.

Overall, I'm happy with the whole place and people at Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe. It's working out very well for my wife who at first was not used to such a big place with that many buildings. She's happy with the meals and where she lives.

Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe was a really large, beautiful facility. It's just perfect. The food was excellent. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. They had a pool and Jacuzzi.

As a nine year resident of Aston Gardens, I feel qualified to say that it is like a top notch cruise ship with excellent services in every department. I am a very happy passenger!

I made a good choice coming here at Aston Gardens. They have so many good things to offer. I even gave up my car-buses shopping and appointments to doctors. We have nurses on premises and a doctor during Fridays. We also have lots of activities like dancing, games, cards, theaters, and trips. There is always something for everyone. The place is great!

Lifestyle here at Aston Gardens exceeds my expectations. I am pleased with things such as good meals, excellent healthcare professionals, various social activities, good housekeeper, 8 exercise classes per week, a helpful and knowledgable concierge desk, good security, and a well maintained landscaping.

It would be difficult to overstate the excellence of the services we have received her in Aston Gardens. Their food service is superior. The housekeeping is outstanding and the maintenance is exceptional. They have effecient transportation. To add onn, they also have a friendly, helpful, and thoughtful staff.

Aston Gardens' location is very convenient and is near stores. They have a nice selection in terms of accomodations. The residents are busy all the time. We have arranged trips which we have a lot to choose from. The transportation is from our door and back home again. Meal time is always a pleasant experience. We have varied menu to choose from. Plus, home made cookies for everyone. For 3 years in living here, I have had fun and have made many friends. Indeed, it is a home.

From our first day at Aston Gardens, we knew that it was the right place for us. It's like being on a cruise with elegant dining, a pleasant and ready to help staff, activities, and amenities. We are very happy to be on board!

Gardens of Venice is beautiful and brand new. It's just absolutely excellent. We couldn't have found a better place for my sister. So far the staff is very nice, very good, competent, and very friendly. We have had lunch and dinner several times there. The food was outstanding. They have all sorts of activities, from movies, to trips, to bingo, they offer everything there. My sister does not want to participate in a lot, because she has language problem. But she's fine.

We chose Aston Gardens for my in-laws because she was comfortable in that territory and it sounded like a nice place for them. The apartments are nice and spacious and it's very clean. They're living on their own but they go down to eat at a very nice restaurant there. I liked the part that they put new carpet in and repainted everything so it looked brand new when my in-laws moved in.

My visit to the Aston Gardens was very positive. It looked like it was a very well-known organization, it's very clean, and it seems like the people were active in that community. The staff was very accommodating and I saw nothing negative at the facility.
