I loved Grand Villa of Englewood. I would recommend that to anybody who had to put their family in an assisted living. It was a wonderful place. It was very clean and bright. The people that worked there were very personable and very accommodating. They greeted me with cheer. As I walked around, every room I looked at was nice and bright. The activity area was clean and people seemed to be having fun.

The community at Grand Villa of Englewood focuses on quality senior living. They are fortunate enough to allow residents to transition from independent living too assisted living, and then assisted living to memory care, which is appropriate for seniors to age gracefully & also get help if they need it. I toured the assisted living portion of the community and they have a variety of different sized rooms. It was lunch time so all the residents were eating their food & the dining area smelled & looked amazing. They offer residents 3 meals a day and if you don't like what's on the menu they have a 2nd menu to choose from (which is great). The gentleman who gave me the tour was kind and definitely cared about his job and was sociable with the residents.

My mom has moved to Grand Villa of Englewood and the experience has been very good. I very much like everything about it, it's very beautiful and the upkeep is very nice. The staff is very helpful. I never had any of the food, but my mom says it's wonderful. They have a beauty salon, a pool, and lots of activities. Her room is very spacious, she has a roommate.

My visit to Grand Villa of Englewood was great, but it's not something we can afford at this point without Medicaid. It's quite pricey at this point. They were very friendly and hospitable. It seems like a very nice place. It seems like there's a lot of people there, it's very crowded. I visited the individual rooms. It seemed like it was a very, very busy place and it's confusing to me. The staff who gave me the tour was very good and nice. She seemed to be pretty thorough, and she got back to me. Their facilities were very good.

Grand Villa of Englewood is a very pretty community, and the staff there are wonderful. My sister has moved into their assisted living and her room is very nice. The facility is very appealing in appearance and their staff is round-the-clock care. They have medication reminders, they have 3 meals a day and a chef there, and they help with showering if you need it. They have a hair salon there too.

I saw Grand Villa of Englewood. Everything went well. The staff was very friendly. All the residents seemed happy. They had a nice dining room. I liked the layout where you have to go outside to go anywhere from your apartment, and that was nice. Everything seemed nice. The residents can plant their own garden in front of their apartments.

We went to Grand Villa of Englewood because mom wanted to move in there. It was really good. We really like that place. We just toured the assisted living. The facilities were very nice. They have lots of activities that they do. They even had a swimming pool, cable, and stuff like that. The rooms were very nice. They have a bunch of different little sitting areas. They have shuffleboard. They do bingo and all kinds of stuff. They even had a rec room.

Grand Villa of Englewood is awesome. The staff is so sincere in caring for the residents And for us, their family. They go out of their way. Mom has never been a craft or game person but she has been encouraged to join in and she liked it. The rooms are nice. My mom has Alzheimers so she says it's a beautiful hotel room.
My sister & I know mom is in the right place. We love everyone there. We don't worry about our mom.

I saw the Grand Villa in Englewood. The main areas were fine. Even the rooms were fine, but they looked like two strips of old hotel rooms all connected together. Their individual rooms had an overhang, so if it's raining or if it's flooded, my mother-in-law wouldn't be able to get out. There's grass in between the one side of the room and then on the other side, there was a walkway, and she would have to go out of her room up the walkway all the way around to the other side to get into the main area to get to the dining hall and all the main stuff. If it's raining, she would get soaked and that's one of the reasons I wouldn't have chosen them.
The staff and the manager were very nice. The facility looked very clean and fresh. My only complaint would've been the location of those rooms. They were not all in one building. They had a main building, then another 2-floor building over to the other side, and then there are like these two strips of what looked like the old style of motel rooms. There's an overhang, and there's all this grass area between you and the other rooms across the way, and you literally have to walk all that way to get into the main area. The staff was very helpful.

We toured the assisted living of the Grand Villa of Englewood. We had a lovely experience. The young lady who took us around -- the marketing person, Elle -- she was lovely. She introduced us to the people, we got to see the housekeepers when they were cleaning people's rooms and things, and we got to tour the building where they had their exercise groups and crafting. We got to look at a regular room, which was the size of room that we were looking for. Everything was very nice, and we were very impressed with the whole thing. They're going to have church services, they have a pool there, they have an activity room where they can go, and I think they do crafting and play cards. While we were on the tour they were holding an exercise class, and there were quite a number of people in the exercise class. They were all sitting, like on wheelchairs, or chairs, but it was elderly people doing exercises. They do the laundry for the residents, they have a lovely dining room with a nice, varied menu, and they also have room service if the person doesn't want to go down to the dining room. I thought that was a nice amenity because every once in a while my father-in-law might not want to leave his room and just have a sandwich delivered. We just thought the all-around picture was very nice. The staff was wonderful, very accommodating, and everybody was pleasant and happy. When we walked in the door the young lady who greeted us at the desk was actually very bubbly and very nice. All the employees we saw were in good spirits, said hello to us, and welcomed us. We're quite impressed with this place.

Our experience with Lori, Hattie and all the staff at Grand Villa of Englewood has been great. I can’t say enough about all they have done! They have been a God send. The staff continues every day to work with and for the residents. They all are very dedicated to the residents and truly look out for them. They are constantly coming up with activities and outings for all to enjoy. Especially during the pandemic – wow, they have gone out of their way to keep our loved ones safe and also provide a balance of activities during a very difficult time period. They have been so creative in keeping communication open and available during the pandemic. Thank you Grand Villa for all you are doing! Keep up the great work!

Our experience with Grand Villa of Englewood is not so good. My wife has an awfully small room there, but it's clean and decent. The facility is pretty nice. They've got a dining room, people come in to do haircuts and beauty stuff for women, they've got quite a bit of stuff. Their location is fairly close to main roads there, it's a quiet location, so I guess it's pretty good.

I went to Grand Villa of Englewood, and that was very nice. I would give it a 5, the staff was great, and it's probably the best of the places I went to. The rooms were very nice and clean. The dining area was average. The atmosphere was nice and comfortable.

Grand Villa of Englewood looked alright, but the walkways were open to the outside. They were covered, but if you had to walk from your room to the dining room, you'd be outside, and I would be afraid of rainstorms or when it's chilly outside. The room looked fine, but it's small. The staff during the tour was good and attentive. The dining area was nice, but a little dark. The food was good. They had a main room and a craft room.

Clean, well laid out with areas divided by need. Apts for those with limited need independent/some assistance. Separate facilities for memory care and significant assistance. Dining was all enclusive with a large variety of foods and snacks. Prices competitive. Most important the personal I spent time with are genuine. caring and kind

Kudos to the nursing staff and resident care aides! What a fantastic caring group.! The resident care director works closely with her team to provide exceptional care.
As I visited a friend at the facility During meal time as I usually do, The nursing director was talking to residents and serving the meal with a smile. Where else would you see management staff assisting with meals, bedtime rituals . Not too many places. Grand Villa has gone through a lot of changes but I have seen nothing but caring individuals who work as a team to care for each and every resident.

The room my grandmother was in has mold in it, and its had mold for about a year and her room is not the only one, and they kept stating that the problem has been taken care of, it most certainly has not, we are extremely disappointed we have had to come to this to get justice for the problems that hav happened, the staff is not at all great, feels like I meet a new executive director every 6 months, in-fact I have, I think were on executive direct number 5 with in 2 YEARS.

I really liked Grand Villa of Englewood. I liked that it is like a compound. The staff is extremely enthusiastic. They don't have enough key staff members, but the recreational director has a goal. She made that place. There was just a life to her and she made it fun. Whatever she did, there was a life and a fire inside her and she made a difference. It seemed there were less staff members, but they were incredibly welcoming and warm. They were genuine. I would love to see my parents go there. The price was awesome. It was less expensive and the rooms felt like going into an old hotel. They have a pool where they do water aerobics, a gazebo area, a small courtyard area, and a small theater where they can watch movies.

This is not a typical assisted living facility. Most everything (except memory care) is on the ground floor. All the living units open to the outside, onto nicely landscaped courtyards, The residents can walk under cover from place to place, The environment is open, secure, friendly and inviting. It struck me that the residents and the staff were genuinely happy to be there, The rooms were reasonably spacious and the common areas were very nicely done, comfortable and a nice extension of the residents ‘ own rooms. This facility is well designed, staffed by caring professionals where the residents were happy to be living there.

I stayed in Grand Villa in Englewood. It's an older, gated building with a nice courtyard that you can walk around in. The memory care unit was highly secure. The staff was very good. The staff and the caregivers were excellent. The dining area was very nice, but you can't order what you want. They make what they want, and that's it. They had Wii bowling, card games, exercises every day, bingo in the evening, movies, and trips. I was paying less but I had a small studio. The price was comparable to other places but the care was lacking at some things. They didn't have enough help.

Went on tour and loved the entire community. The independent apartments with outside entrances give a real sense of having your own apartments. The assisted living and Alzheimer's building are very well kept and secure. The staff was caring and engaged with the seniors and families. I met the new resident nurse in charge and was so impressed. When mom is ready this will be my top choice.

I visited Grand Villa of Englewood. It was very pretty, and everybody was very friendly. I had lunch there and sat with some of the residents. However, I did not care for the independent living. The rooms were fine, but it was like a motel. The doors were on the outside, so if you wanted to go eat, you had to go outside, walk around the building, and go in another door. If you're in assisted living, then the doors were all on the inside. The lady who showed me around was having an extremely busy day. She had four people coming to take this tour, but even being that busy, she was still very nice and very accommodating. The staff members in the dining room were lovely, too. They had a birthday party there for a lady who was 100, and it was a very lovely experience. They seemed to be enjoying the lady's birthday as much as she did.

I liked the layout of Grand Villa of Englewood. I liked the grounds and the green space that they had that the other two I visited didn’t. There was a pool, and each section of the facility had its own little courtyard and green space; that made the decision for me. The thing that stood out to me most was the entrance, all the plants, the green spaces, the pool, and the courtyard areas. They just seemed to have, especially for people who like the outdoors, a lot of more space like that than the other two places I toured.

My mother-in-law moved into Grand Villa about a month ago. I like that the doors open to the outside so that is like they have their own apartment. It does not feel like a hospital or a nursing home. They open up to beautiful grounds, but at the same time, the design of the building is square and secured, so she cannot wander away by accident or get lost. They renovate each room when each tenant moves out. Her room is has pretty much brand new floor, new walls, new bathroom, and new kitchen. It is big. It is much bigger than the other place that we looked. The cost is much lower. However, they do not give out paper communications to each of the individuals as to what is going on. It is posted on the board, and my mother-in-law does not always remember to look at the board for the activities; if she had a copy in her room, then that will be good. They serve three meals a day, and the food is good. That staff knows everybody's name. They interact and talk with them. They stop and interact and talk with us. It will make you feel more comfortable because you know the staff cares enough to know everybody's name.

We love Grand Villa. It is very comfortable and very much like my mom is living in her own apartment. The people are very friendly and accommodating. The price was less expensive than where she was before, so there was not much about it that we didn’t like. So far, we are very happy with it. She has a studio, but you can separate the bedroom area from the general living area.

Grand Villa was renovated, so everything is brand new. They're taking care of Mother, providing her meals, and helping with her medicine. The few staff members I met were very friendly. The director was very nice and there after hours just to make sure everything was right. They had live music two nights a week, bingo, game night, movie night, and a swimming pool. She's very happy.

Grand Villa was an older facility and not as polished. The staff was wonderful. They were very gracious, patient, polite, and no complaints or anything. It just seemed like an older facility, and it wasn’t for me but for a friend. We had lunch, and it was very good. Like I said, it was an older facility and maybe not as gleaming as a newer place would be. I think it was adequate ,and my main complaint would be that compared to some of the other facilities we looked at it was older and just didn’t seem to have the gleam and shine of the newer places.

We found Grand Villa of Englewood for my mother-in-law, and we were very pleased. It looked nicer as opposed to others. The people were nicer, and it was close to us. They had a lot of activities, like bingo, bus rides, exercise class, and music. The dining area and the food were very good. I would recommend it to my friends.

Grand Villa of Englewood was very nice and accommodating. We had all of our questioned answered. It had a main dining hall where everyone had to go to eat, and we didn't think our friend could adjust to that well. The room he would have been in was like a hotel or motel room that was facing out to the side walk and not in the interior hallway. He would have been OK with that, but we would not be OK because he would have gone out in the rain to walk to the dining room. There was a covered walkway, but still, you would get wet when it rained. There was a nice a pool. The place was a little further from our house, but the nurse’s station and all of the medical staff were right there.

We really liked it. It seemed very nice, and I liked that it was more open-plan. There seemed to be more stuff to do for high-functioning people, and I liked that there is a progression that if you get sicker, they can go into more help. They have a movie theater there. Once they decline, they won't have to move; they just move in to a different area. Everybody was really friendly, and the grounds were very nice. We saw the dining room, and we liked the layout. It felt more like going to a restaurant, and my dad liked that.
