One of the big things I liked about Verena at Leander was their saltwater swimming pool. I am supposed to be taking physical therapy and that's one of the things that I'm supposed to be doing, and it's a beautiful place. I liked the fact that the dining area was like a restaurant. The food we had there was awesome and they have a waitress that brings the food to you and takes your order. They have two different chefs, one used to cook at Disney World. The price was a whole lot better than what I'm paying right now. It's about $3,000 cheaper. It's going to be closer to my son, too. The lady that did the tour was awesome. She was very knowledgeable, caring, and worked hard to make sure that we got what we needed. They have transportation, they go out on outings twice a week if you want to go, and they take you to the doctor. If you want to go somewhere else, they have a guy there that comes and gets you and takes you somewhere else. You don't have to go on the bus.

The apartments are spacious, very convenient, plenty of closet space. Marvelous staff, very efficient, caring, pleasant and understand the elderly. We have physical education and excercise at least three times a day. We enjoy new card games, arts and crafts, ie: knitting, stichery, embroidery, cinema several times a week. Residents are very friendly, and I love interacting with them. And now for my favorite. The food is excellent. Our chefs introduce many internations dishes as well as down home cooking. I would ecourange anyone looking for a good home to check out Verena at Leander.

The facilities at Verena at Leander Independent Living were very modern and very nice. The rooms were very spacious, laid out really well, and very clean. It was a fairly new facility. The staff was not as friendly as the other place I toured, nor as informative. The lady that facilitated the tour spent about 20 minutes with me and seemed like she was in a rush. She was distracted and not very forthcoming with information. The residents seemed kind of grumpy. When she did engage with the residents, it seemed kind of forced. All of that made a pretty big impression on me. It's not a place that I would want to see my father in. For that reason, I did not recommend that facility to my dad, even though it was nice. It was a great facility and modern, but there's obviously a lot more to that community. There were a few residents playing a card game, maybe five or six. A couple of residents were walking around. I didn't really see a lot of residents out of their rooms doing activities. The lady just gave me a really short tour. She wasn't rude; she was kind of cold, rushed, and not very informative. I would suggest that they train their staff to be more welcoming, compassionate, and engaging wit at least the visitors.

We toured and we didn't like it as well as the other place we've been to. It was more than what my mother-in-law needed. The staff was excellent but it was more institutional, it didn't feel as warm and friendly I guess. We looked at several different floor plans, there wasn't anything bad about the size. It's kind of out there, there wasn't a whole lot out there 'cause that was a newly developed area. I know they had a gym and outdoor pool. We went down to where the buffet area was, but it was a Sunday and it wasn't open. When we were there, there were like no residents. It was like a ghost town and there was nobody around.

My parents are going to move in. It's a very nice, new facility, and the restaurant, food, and dining options were excellent. The staff was very friendly and very good. They will have a nice one-bedroom apartment. They had lots of people there during lunch. My mother met several people who reside there, who were all nice. There's a pool area, a courtyard, an exercise room, a sewing room, a lounge area where they play cards and billiards, and have a happy hour every day.
