We went to Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest. The independent living was very nice and upscale. The dining room was beautiful. When I went over to assisted living, it gave me the impression of being like the stepchild that gets the hand-me-downs from independent living. I wasn't too impressed with their assisted living.
The apartments were nice, but I happened to like the ones better at the other place. They have levels and when you go to the levels then they have an ala carte menu as to what you would pay extra for, and it just got a little too expensive. I thought the prices on that list were a little steep. The staff were friendly as we walked through. Everyone said hello, and that was about it. I didn't have much interaction with the staff other than the person that took us on the tour.
The building was clean. The hallways in the assisted living were dark. The dining room in assisted living just reminds me of a diner. The tables weren't as nice as the ones downstairs in the independent living. As you walk in, everything is big and beautiful, and it was a class act when you walk in. But when you go over to the assisted living side of the building, that class act went away. They had a walking area with a large garden that you can go out into, and it was pretty. The rooms looked old. The facility looked old in assisted living. You had to bring in your own furniture. You would have to get a mover to bring your furniture in. I wasn't happy with it.

I went and I thought it was very well maintained. It had plenty of activities for residents to enjoy. It had great accommodations for those who want to participate in games. There were very good dining areas, a nice view of the golf course from the room, and a great location. The staff has been there for a while. She was very knowledgeable, very professional, and answered all my questions. I noticed people gathering, eating, and some people playing games in one room. The apartment was cozy, and had all the amenities and furnishings that a resident would need. It was orderly and very similar to the other place I went to. I have no complaints whatsoever.

My parents have been in here a week as of today, and it's wonderful. The living atmosphere is fantastic and the food is fabulous. In fact, yesterday I was up there with my parents during their lunch. They had spaghetti, bread sticks, salad, and carrots. I was able to eat it and it was so good.
The staff is wonderful and they have become part of our family. We've gotten to know them personally and professionally. They call us if they need us, and I have gotten to be really good friends with the head nurse. They understand some of the things that are going on with my parents, and they're very patient and accommodating, so I could not ask for anything better.
My parents don't do the activities, but I have been in and watched some of these activities from the door. The interaction with the residents is beautiful. I've watched their game day, puzzle making, and painting. Every time I go by the room for those activities, it is filled, so people must like it. On Saturday they had this jewelry show, and all the little ladies came down with their money and were buying jewelry to make them feel pretty. A week before that, I was there and they had a band. The place was packed with people listening to this band and the music. The activities are wonderful.

My Mother had owned her own home in Fl. for over 40 yrs. She was becoming very lonely because her neighbors & neighborhood had changed. She made the decision to move to Pinecrest & wished she had done it 10 yrs earlier. She had a beautiful apartment that had a full kitchen & also overlooked the golf course, she had a western exposure & could see the most beautiful sunsets.
The staff was AMAZAZING from the people in the office (all of them wonderful), the people that organized her car services, the maintenance people, Security & the cleaning ladies. All of these people made her life easier, and they became like family to her. She was kept so busy doing fun activities & going out to dinner etc... She made so so many wonderful friends. Everyday was a fun new day to enjoy!
Unfortunately, she passed suddenly last November, that is why I am telling you not to wait, make your decision to MOVE to Pinecrest NOW! And thank you to all at Pinecrest who made my mom's last years such a wonderful time.

I'm living in here now but I'm moving out because my wife didn't qualify. Everything about the place is very nice. My 2-bedroom is very big, and it's all very big here. The dining area is very nice but the food is average. They could take up every moment of your time if you wanted because they have many activities. The atmosphere is very good, it's a very nice place, very homey and clean. Everything is nice and quiet here.

It was a very nice community. We visited during Christmas season, so it was beautifully decorated. There were a lot of Christmas-related activities for the residents. It's probably one of the best places that we went to. The tour guide was super, very helpful, and kept in very close contact with us. She seemed to be truly interested in finding an arrangement that would work for my mom and dad even if that didn't mean at their community. She was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. Their food was excellent. They had several dining areas. They're beautiful, clean, and provide a wide variety of food.

My daughter's grandmother and I were invited to evacuate there during Hurricane Irma. I am so impressed with this facility. Hall monitors on every floor 24 hours to assist in any way they could and to provide comfort to those with anxiety about the hurricane. Absolutely beautiful facility meeting every possible need of its residents. Employees were kind and efficient. When the power went out hot coffee was available and delicious pastries cold foods. A big thank you and may God Bless you for hosting us during this stressful time.

I am living here. They have a million things for you to do, but nobody visits each other in their own rooms. The food is good. It's great, but it's not what I want.

My mother is here. I can’t sing their praises highly enough. They’re fabulous. I knew about this place because I have friends with parents who were there. The staff is amazing. They are so helpful, friendly, and concerned. Every patient is important to them from the office staff and the nurses to the physical therapy and the activities people. Even when they’re not absolutely dealing with the residents, the staff stops in and sees them to talk to them in their rooms. It is just amazing. The food is excellent. It is like a three-star restaurant in the main dining room. Each assisted living floor has its own kitchen and restaurant as well. The activities are excellent. There are movies every night and fantastic parties. I had the best time ever of my life at their New Year’s party.

It was fine and pretty good. They showed me around and I saw a 1-bedroom apartment with bath, full kitchen and a living room. It was of the right size. They have a library and dining room. My golf course is right next door to it.

We stopped to visit for a few minutes, and the place seemed nice. They had a nice swimming pool, and their dining area was very nice as well. They had a coffee shop and a nice library, too.

The activities impressed me. There is a swimming pool; there’s bingo. There are all kinds of visiting musicians and choirs. They have very liberal transportation service and very elegant dining and I got to say moderate pricing. The staff is long term, high quality, and friendly. The food is excellent with a large variety of choice at every meal and it’s very well done.

It was a high-rise apartment building. It was very clean with a good view all the way around. They had nice people. It was very homey inside. The homes themselves were almost in the same size. If you wanted two bedrooms, they were about 30 square feet.

I visited and it was all decorated for Christmas. Everybody was nice. We looked at several rooms, and they were set-up to be sold. They had a good restaurant and had good service. It was a very positive experience. I liked that it was immaculately clean, and they had 12 different people decorating 12 different trees.

It was actually our number one choice, but it was too far away. We liked the view, and the fact that they take you any place in Pinellas County, that they had entertainment, and happy hour every week. The dining room was spectacular. The apartments had been remodeled. To me and to my parents, it was the best place that we visited. The food was good. The activities were absolutely fabulous. I would live there if I could. If I could move down to Clearwater, I would have my parents move there in a heartbeat.

Top notch living. Top notch care. Staff that are dedicated and care so much and stay involved in their residents lives because they care.

It is excellent. It’s a large community. We’ve eaten there and the dining facilities are excellent. The food, the menu and the transportation are. I see they have a good transportation schedule and they’ll take you anywhere you want to go. They have an activities calendar. The staff is excellent. That’s why we decided we want to go there.

It was great and we met with Debra who was our contact there. She was real close to my dad in age and she was very nice and diligent in following up with everything. We had lunch and the food was delicious. The rooms were very spacious with huge closets. It had a living room, bedroom, a full bathroom and kitchen. It had a beautiful view and the building had no smell. You could tell the residents were very well kept, they seemed very happy and they were interacting with others.

As far as I know it is a good place. My dad is in there. I'm not sure about their activities, but I'm sure that they do everything they can to keep their residents happy. The food is good. The people seemed to be very friendly.

I had a very positive visit. My sister made a trip there with my mother that I had arranged and I followed it up with a visit separately when I was down there. My sister's visit was a little more involved because she was with my mother and they had lunch there. They experienced the dining room and all that. They really liked that. They had special parking with our names when we showed up. It was just a very informative, friendly and inclusive visit. But I wasn't crazy about their bathroom. I didn't think they were truly handicapped accessible that they should have been. She actually had a safer bathroom in her own home. You had to climb over a little curve to get in and out of the shower and there wasn't a grip where it needed to be when you get in and out. Then when I complained about it, they had showed me other apartment wherein they had upgraded a little more and they had add up the appropriate grip and cut out the curve. So, you still had entry that was lower. But there wasn't a seat in there. It was like you gained and lost. That was the biggest downfall. It was the most challenging for an elderly living alone. The place was also rather big and a lot to navigate for an elder lady. But everything else was a homerun. The apartment was spacious, clean and nicely done. The dining room was great.

We chose here and we are really happy with the facility. The staff is really nice and it's just a really nice place. They have a lot of activities and they take the residents out. They have been there for about two months now and they are really happy there.
