I liked American House Sarasota because they had a pond and it's a beautiful place. The apartment had a full kitchen. They had a menu in their dining room that you can eat off at any time. We went up for dinner one night and the chef was good. They go out on trips to other restaurants in the area, too. They cook to order, which is nice because you would know that it's really hot and it's been thought about. There's a pool and a garden where one of the residents has put in a butterfly garden all on his own. So, it had lots of outdoor opportunities. You can walk around the pond. They also take you to doctor appointments and grocery stores. The lady that toured us was energetic and positive.

The apartment that American House Sarasota showed me was nice-sized and had a great view. They didn't have a garage, but they had covered parking and carports. They didn't have a lot of storage, which I might need, but they have a pool and that's important to me. The place was very nice. The staff I met were also nice. They were very pleasant to deal with. They listened to my needs and offered what they could offer me.

We toured American House Sarasota, and it wasn't updated enough for us -- it felt a little too "elderly." They are lovely people. We had a lovely tour guide, and she was great. We looked at an independent villa on the lake, and it was a lovely location. They said it was going to be upgraded in about a month or two. It would be gutted out and updated because it was very outdated. The landscaping outside was terrible. It was all weeds, and there were no palm trees or flowers; it was really not nice. We have nothing against elderly people; we are there ourselves, but most of the people whom we saw walking around were using walkers and were a little older side than we are. We want a more active community. The person who accompanied us was very friendly, she knew what she was talking about, and she was pleasant. The dining room looked like it was very crowded, with a lot of people eating with walkers. The place is situated nicely as far as the way the villas are set up, but it was very old. They really needed to update it to the present time.

My mother is in Sarasota. The staff is very good. It's been a very good experience. The rooms, the amenities, and the activities are excellent. I like everything about it. It's just what she needs. The dining area is very nice, and the food is very good. They have a pool. There are too many things to list, and it's all great.

It was farther from us, and we want to avoid the Bee Ridge area because the traffic right now is terrible. There was nothing bad about it, the people were pleasant, fairly unremarkable, and sort of forgettable. There were no views from the room, and my mother in law would not look at the parking lot. It’s more urban and there were not a lot of grounds. It looked clean and homey, but not grand.

I visited. It had all the activities I was looking for, but there was something missing. I was not clear on where the entrance was, and when I walked in, I wasn’t greeted right away. Then, the person I was supposed to see was tied up even though I had called the night before and in the morning before I went and still I had to wait. So, I did not feel like I was a priority. I did see some apartments that I liked. They had studios to two bedrooms. The pool was outside, and it was not enclosed.

It is an excellent community. It goes above and beyond the call of duty. The room is about 300sq. ft, and it is set up quite well homey. The food is excellent. They have bingo nights, bridge nights, trips to various places around town, and mall visits. My mother doesn’t have a car anymore; she gets driven to wherever she wants to go.

It was a very nice facility. We saw the one-bedroom apartment, and it was very roomy. The staff was very nice and helpful. They had activities like bingo, arts, and crafts.

It was just absolutely gorgeous. People were around. There were activities going on. It was just a friendly beautiful place. They have a 7-acre lake, and all of the units face the water. It was just beautiful; you would never know you're in the middle of the city. In the lobby, they had a jewelry show going on. A day before, they had an art show going on. It was lively. It looked like you're in a Marriot Hotel because they had open floor plants. It was clean. It was bright and cheerful. We were very impressed. The rooms were nice and large. You had a little patio. The people on the second floor had a lanai. We looked at a two-bedroom unit. The main master bedroom was beautiful, bright, and sunny. It had a large closet and a nice bathroom. The facility did have a small kitchen. There, they would give you two meals. The dining room was beautiful. Everybody was very friendly and polite.

My partner and I have been here several times. She has a long time friend that is a resident there, and it’s a lovely facility. The woman has a two bedroom apartment. We have been there for dinner several times, and the food was excellent. The service is very good, and the staff was very nice.

We have decided to move my mom here. What we found for her is an independent living apartment. They were much more spacious than any of the other apartments that we saw in other community. That was one of the reasons why we chose it and also, there is no buy-in fee and we also like that. We tried their food and it is like restaurant dining -- lots of choices and nicely prepared. They offer a lot of activities like bingo and movies. They have a card room, exercise room, as well as physical therapy on site. They also have a free Wi-Fi in the building.

It is a very lovely facility. The staff was very helpful and very pleasant at the time of my visit. They have little cottages that have a lake view. They also have a building that is like a one-story connected apartment building around the lake and it is just lovely. With regards to their apartments, all I can say is that they have utilized every single bit of space in a very creative way.

The place was very neat. The housing was very nice but it was too small for us. We would have gone as a couple. There wasn't much staff around when we visited the place and it seems that there wasn't much activity for the residents there also. We never actually saw anybody interacting with any body else.

We saw this community and my husband liked it, but I didn't care it. They had assisted living and everything right there, but the big area where they congregated had some kind of smell to it, and I wasn't too crazy about that. Their dining room area was quite small too.
