I went to Abbey Delray and I was very impressed with the overall tour experience. I thought the community was what would suit my mom's lifestyle very well. I saw newly renovated apartments that were beautiful. Everything was very well kept. I was very impressed with the appearance of the grounds, the facilities, and the hallways. It was very well maintained. The staff was wonderful, very knowledgeable, very warm, and seemed to love working there. The residents that we met along our tour all seemed to know who he was and vice versa. It was very comforting. I saw people playing cards and we walked out to the pool and we saw where shows and lectures were put on. They gave me a pretty comprehensive tour. I saw the dining room. If my mom were to live there, she would want an outdoor patio and her own garden space and that was an option, which was a nice surprise. They had a butterfly garden. It was really pleasant. It was the nicest of all that I saw. It seemed to fit all of our needs.

Overall, Abbey Delray was quite upscale. They had a lot of activities and the buildings looked nice and beautiful. The apartment that I was interested in was located on the other side of the pool, so it was fairly close to everything. It's a nice size and beautiful too. The atmosphere seemed very nice, as well as the help. The only negative experience I had was that they were putting on a hard sell on me. I didn't like that at all, but the person who gave me the tour was a lovely lady. She was very nice, answered all my questions, and was very patient. I would have liked to speak to more people who have lived there though.

My mom is living in Abbey Delray. They have an assisted living unit, so she is going to stay there and go into their assisted living facility. Right now, she is in independent living. It's beautiful and it's been totally renovated. It's like a hotel. The food is not that great. I don't think that they are really following dietary rules. A lot of the food is very heavy with a lot of sauces. I don't think it's really appropriate for seniors. The food could use a bit of improving. Before the pandemic, there were lots of activities. They're just very accommodating. The staff is wonderful. I really can't say enough about them. They really have done a lot to keep the residents safe. They have been pretty much under lockdown, and they're really not allowed to go anywhere and have any visitors. They have really done a very good job. They have gotten their meals delivered to their rooms, so they're really taking good care of them. A lot of the women play cards. They have arts and crafts. There's reading groups, exercise, movies, and lectures. There's a big swimming pool, so they have swimming.

I like Abbey Delray. It has everything I could possibly want. The activities and apartments are wonderful. The people and staff are very friendly. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but you're paying for breakfast and dinner. The food is good.

I have gone to Abbey Delray. I liked their location, their friendliness, and the size of the apartments. They had all the things you look for in retirement. They were very professional, very courteous, efficient, and experienced. They only serve one meal a day that is your choice of either lunch or dinner. They had transportation, a pool, an exercise room, and a library. They had lectures and bridge, and whatever you want.

My parents have been at Abbey Delray for 2 1/2 years. For two years, they were in Independent Living. Last Fall, we had to move them into Assisted Living. Prior to making the initial move to Abbey, I can truly say my heart ached. I felt very guilty about forcing a move that my parents really did not want. I looked at numerous ALF's from Boynton to Boca. Many of them are beautiful, but Abbey Delray (we're in the smaller community on Lowson) just resonated with me for some reason. From the very first day, my parents have loved it. As have I, my husband and my siblings. This is truly a loving and caring environment and honestly, feels very homey. The staff truly cares about the residents and goes above and beyond to make residents feel comfortable while providing the needed care. Front line staff -- nursing, aides, therapists, dining room staff, front desk staff seem to know every resident. They certainly know my parents and their smiles and greetings have done amazing things in easing my parents fears and anxieties. Both of my parents have some form of Dementia. I just cannot say enough about Abbey Delray and I am thankful I have them to help me in this daunting task of caring for my folks.

My visit at Abbey Delray was very nice. The rooms were fabulous. The staff knew their jobs very well. They were very friendly, but they don’t try to be your best friend either. They’re just nice people, and I think the staff is nicely trained. They know how to set the table very nicely without being too fancy. The people who work there have worked in there for quite a while. The food was restaurant good. The price was extremely expensive for me because you have to do a buy-in, and they want at least $200,000; that is why we did not pursue it any further. They need a separate area for people with memory impairment. Some of the places here have memory loss areas where all the people have the same issues, and they do their exercises together. I didn’t stay long enough to really have anything to say, but the staff was very friendly, and the snacks that they offered us while we had breaks were very good. They took 5 of us. Some were going to take a walk, and he would have 2 or 3 people who worked there -- not necessarily doctors or nurses, but even it could be some of the nice people whom we see in the dining room or that kind of thing. Everybody was friendly there.

One of my best friends is in Abbey Delray. It is very pretty and very nicely done, quiet, and everyone seems happy there. They serve a breakfast buffet that you have to come down to, then, they give you either lunch or dinner as part of their service. They give you coupons for the month, and I guess you have to give them one of the coupons in order to have whatever you want to eat. If you don’t use them all, I think you can use them for when somebody comes in for dinner or lunch, and you can use that instead of paying for them, which is a nice idea. My girlfriend’s apartment is beautiful. She took a two-bedroom, two-bath, and they will change it for you to your liking. They changed one of the bedrooms, the living room, and dining area into one room for her, so she has a lot of comfortable space. She loves it and is very happy there. You are allowed to have animals, and it is very nice because she has a dog. It is a lovely place.

We moved to Abbey Delray and the staff is very nice. Our room has two bedrooms and a kitchen. It's a little small in the living room and kitchen area. Their food is very good and the facility is very well kept.

We are scheduled to move into Abbey Delray. It is a Lifecare facility, and we're going in as independent. They have assisted, skilled nursing, and Alzheimer's facilities. What impressed us the most with Abbey Delray? The price was right. The rooms were the right size. The area looked nice, and we are familiar with it because we live close by. Starting in November, they are going to add restaurants and they are going to change some of the grounds or add buildings. The staff seemed wonderful. Everybody I talked to there was very easy to talk to. The people there, they weren't snooty or anything, and they all praised the people that work there. They all were very, very happy with them.

I think Abbey Delray is the nicest one by far. The facility is well kept, and it’s very clean. My mom’s room is big and nice. The dining area is very nice, too. My understanding is you serve yourself, but its all healthy food. The staff are very nice and give excellent help. Their activities are excellent as well.

I like Abbey Delray the best. There are darling little villas right along the waterways. I could have a kayak and I could go kayaking right there behind my property. Then across from the water ways are regular condominiums. They can give a tree if the view from the stream bothers you. I can put an electric wire around the backyard so I can have my dog ran out of the door or not worry that an alligator will eat my dog. They are throwing in a free golf cart so you could go back and forth to the main building. But I’m not sure if they are still offering that until now. The chef came out of the kitchen to greet and meet us. The place is well decorated, like the crown moldings. The cabinets and refrigerators have fancy stones too. They also have a cleaning service.
