The Grand Villa of Englewood was an older community and older building, it was very resort-like. It had a big circular layout, and everything was under cover. So even if it was raining out, the people that lived there would not get wet because there was an overhang around the whole facility. Everything was joined, like the dining rooms and the workout rooms, and the social rooms. I liked that they had independent living and assisted living and memory care. They had lots of different kinds of activities, which was nice. The rooms were small and very dated. They're not like the other place where everything was brand new, but it was livable and nice enough. It didn't have granite countertops or stuff like that and there was some old carpeting in the model units, but they said that they were taking all the old carpeting out and replacing it with planks. I haven't eaten there but the food choices were better and the dining room was nicer. People went to the dining room to eat and were served instead of being served in their rooms, or a box, or something like the other place. Everyone seems nice there except for the lady at the front desk.

I visited the community of Grand Villa of Englewood recently and really enjoyed my experience there. It's a gated community that takes security very seriously and your loved ones will be safe there. There within driving distance of downtown Englewood, beaches, restaurants, and shops so its in a very convenient location. It's very clean, and well maintained. All the staff & residents that I spoke with were all very friendly and made me feel right at home.

I recently went on tour of Grand Villa and I just loved the community. Not only do they have independent living, but they also have assisted living, and memory care which allows anyone to be here no matter what stage of life your in. The staff was very nice, caring, and were engaged with the residents during their activities. I met a new resident who was just moving in and she was so nice & friendly it made me feel right at home.

My mom moved into the Grand Villa of Englewood. The best thing for us was the location. The facility appeared to be clean. My mom's got a one-bedroom apartment, and it's clean. They do the laundry and light cleaning for you, so it's very nice. They have faith-based services on the weekends. They have social activities and painting. There's a pool there. There's an activity board, and they post all the activities that they have. My mom has been eating the food, and she likes it. She said that maybe they could use a little bit more flavoring, but she said the food is very good. The staff members were very friendly, professional, and nice people. It seems like they care about my mom.
They get together and have exercise groups throughout the day. When my mom goes out of her door, she's outside and there's grass there. They just redid it and put lots of plants in, so it is like a garden setting is there. It's an older facility, and they updated a little bit, but I have no complaints. Some of the bathrooms could be updated. It's expensive, but you get everything that you need.

I visited & toured today with my friend Paulette and I was very impressed with the community. The fact that everything is undercover and you won’t be rained on is awesome. Theirs plenty of activities and things to do at Grand Villa.

I thought the community at Grand Villa of Englewood was very, very well established and geared toward the needs of the seniors. They go from independent living to assisted living, and then, if needed, memory care.
I went and toured their independent living and their rooms are very adequate for two people. The place was immaculate. I did not try the food, but I was given a menu. They provide 3 meals a day and you have adequate choices at every meal for what you'd like to eat. It was impressive.
They have 3 activity directors per day and activities 7 days a week. They have games and before COVID they did field trips. You can do as much as you want to do or as little as you want to do. Yesterday they were playing indoor volleyball because it was raining and they had quite a few participants. They also have a swimming pool.
They have gardens, patios, and lawns. They're very well maintained and manicured. The staff who gave me the tour was very knowledgeable in terms of the needs of the residents. He was extremely personable. He answered every question without a problem.

I visited Grand Villa of Englewood. The people that work there were so nice and friendly. It was a lovely place. The only problem that I had there was the community fee was quite high. It's not in my budget to pay that kind of community fee. I went there to look at a studio, and there wasn't one available, so they showed me a deluxe studio (which was more money, of course). The place was lovely, but the one the staff showed me didn't have a sink in the kitchen. I use a French press, and it's basically a clear beaker with the thing that pushes down the coffee. It's very delicate, so you can't bring it to the bathroom sink because the sink isn't big enough to wash that in there. She said I can always get a Keurig, but I don't want something that bulky.
They have other fees. To manage your medicine is $300 a month, which I don't need help with. I think that's a little excessive. The fees kept adding up.
They had bowling in the community center. There were maybe five or six people playing. The activities person was helping with the bowling, setting up the pins, and cheering people on; she was quite wonderful.
The age of the people there were 20 years older than me. I'm 64, so the age was a factor. You have to walk outside in the weather. It's covered, but it doesn't matter when you get driving rain. How are you going to go for breakfast or dinner or whatever; it's not for me. The pool didn't have shade. Because of those reasons, I'm not interested in that place.
She showed me a very small library and a very small living room. The dining room was good sized, and the menu was posted. The community fee was the killer.

I went to the Grand Villa of Englewood. It's really nice, but the waiting list is so long. When I went there, it was a little bit too far. I saw where everybody went to eat. It was pretty good, and what you'd like. I didn't stay long enough because it was out of my area, and I don't want to waste time. The staff was very friendly.

My mother will be moving into Grand Villa of Englewood. We chose it because of the cleanliness, price, and overall appearance of the place. It's attractive. The staff was very nice, especially the weekend manager was great.

I have lived here for almost 3 years and have no complaints. The staff is friendly and fun to be with. After living in hotel rooms as a senior engineer I find the rooms and facilities a joy and the food is good.

Grand Villa of Englewood was nice. We put a deposit down there. The price was right, and the location is only six miles from my house. It's close to a lot of things in the town of Englewood. The facilities were clean. We only interacted with one person, but she was very good. The room needed to be redone because the old tenant just moved out, but it seemed adequate for what my parents need.

Grand Villa of Englewood was a little bit old but it was very clean, very nice, very well kept and well decorated. The staff members were extremely knowledgeable. They had done everything they could to give us all the information we need. They had activities. We didn't see anybody taking part in them but they had the rooms. We ate there and the food was very good.

The people in Grand Villa of Englewood were very friendly, kind and they work hard. The rooms were nice, they also have a nice swimming pool. The reason we chose the place is because the staff is excellent and very kind. My mom loves the food, they have good choices and it was tasty. They have a nice schedule of activities and they also have an amphitheater. The facilities they have are quite nice as well.

Grand Villa of Englewood has independent living and also Alzheimer's, which are two separate units. It's a gated community. It has a pool and they're right next to Englewood Hospital and they take a lot of patients from Englewood for rehab. They showed me a one-bedroom and a studio, which was set up like a motel. There were no balconies or patios. There's a sidewalk and an inner courtyard and they're dog friendly. They have a pool and they're within driving distance. It's in a country setting. They're next to a waterpark and across the street from the post office, so they're centrally located. It's clean, and the staff, patients, and housekeeping staff were friendly. There's a mix of older and younger staff members. They recently renovated. The only objection is the parking lot needs work. It's first come, first serve parking. They took care of 15 Alzheimer's patients in another facility during the hurricane when their electricity went out. They seem to have good management skills. The independent living is on a single floor and it's enclosed with a garden inside a square. The garden was nice and well groomed.

Grand Villa of Englewood was very nice. The staff was very helpful, showed us all around, and gave us all the information we needed. The dining area was clean, and the food menu was very good. They had a library, a TV room, video games, bingo, card games, and people who come in and entertain a couple days a week.

My sister is having trouble with Grand Villa at Englewood right now, but it has been good, and I like it. The place is very nice. I think the doctors and nurses there are not doing things right. I think they need to be checked out. My sister's apartment is very nice. They clean her room and they take care of her laundry.

I love Grand Villa of Englewood. It's very well-kept and the grounds look like gardens. My dad picked the place because when you walk out your apartment door, you're not walking into the building, but outside. The grounds have flowerbeds, the pool is kept up nice, and it's just a nice atmosphere. It's all gated so nobody can come in and the only way you can get leave is through the front door after signing out. The food is very good and they have a lot to do there. The pricing is good too. It was one of the least expensive places that I looked at.

I really liked the layout of Grand Villa with everything on one floor. What I didn’t like was you didn’t have a choice for dinner. They had a swimming pool, a kitchen if you wanted to cook for the family, and a separate dining room, so that was nice. The front room had a library.
