I moved into the Shores in December of 2021. It is the best decision that I could have made at this time in my life. My wife and I had been snowbirds between Ruskin and Cleveland, Ohio, for 20 years. When she passed in November of 2020, I moved into an apartment in Gulfport for a year trying to decide what I wanted to do next. When I heard about the Shores, I inquired and immediately felt that I was entering into a warm, caring, and supportive community. I tell my friends that being here is like a cross between college and summer camp. We have our own complete living units and can have all of our meals in the dining hall, where we have a chance to meet and socialize with many interesting and lively people. It feels like summer camp, because every day we are offered a wide variety of social and recreational opportunities on the campus or in the community with bus transportation included. The feeling that I get from my experience with the other residents is that the age dial has been set back significantly, as every one seems to be lively and active disguising their age. Some days I pinch myself and wonder how I could be in such a wonderful place.

My Shores visit was a very positive experience. The Sales Director was genuinely interested in my goals and questions. She spent extended time with us and provided follow-up timely information. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The property offers a variety of room types from high rise to 1 and 2-story floor plans with variable pricing. The units and grounds are clean and well maintained. If you enjoy the water, the Shores is located right on Tampa Bay with a dock, kayak storage and great views. By chance, we talked with several friendly residents who described The Shores as a great place to live and the food was excellent. The property is located in a quiet residential neighborhood. I ended the day, thinking the Shores could be my future home.

We first heard about the concept of a Continuing Care Retirement Community like Westminster Shores from our neighbors. We used to talk about the fact that as people age they say that what accelerates the aging process is solitude and loneliness. So it's important from that point of view to be in a community where you have company, and plenty of activities.
Once you go on your first visit, you're almost hooked! But we especially love living here. Here, we have a beautiful residence on the waterfront, spacious and lovely, fantastic kitchen. We enjoy having transportation to the symphony, so we don’t have to drive. We have the opportunity to play pickleball or kayak any time we want, too. Plus, we know that we’ll be taken care of for life — that’s the key reason to choose a CCRC. This was a big relief for our children, relieving them of the responsibility of caring for us as we got older.
We also liked Westminster Communities of Florida is a not-for-profit, fiscally conservative and financially sound, and long-range plans for the future of our community.

Westminster Shores was spectacular but out of our reach. Its cost was off the chart, but it was an absolutely gorgeous place. If I won the lottery, I would live there. The dining area was very nice. They had cards, pool, and a gym.

Beautiful natural setting; living spaces set in grassed areas with palms and tropical hardwoods, with salt water on two sides. Think small college campus set in sub-tropical green belt.
Westminster Shores is mostly an Independent Living facility with Assisted Living provided in the IL residences, or in specific AL residences for more serious needs. Skilled nursing and memory care are provided in a sister location about 1 1/2 miles away. Bus service is provided between the two locations.
The dining room is beautiful, overlooking Little Bayou, just off Tampa Bay. The food and service are superb. I enjoyed 4 excellent meals there during 4 separate visits. You need to see all the amenities to appreciate the upscale nature of Westminster Shores.

We toured the apartments at Westminster Shores, and we were very impressed by them. We liked the clubhouse. The people that accommodated us were very nice. We had a very enjoyable visit. It was a very good choice for us while looking for independent-living. The setup was very nice. It was right close to the water, but I was a little bit concerned about being so close to the water. Other than that, they were very nice. They had a lot of social things going on especially for independent residents, and transportation was available. The apartments were very well cared for.
