I am in Aston Gardens At Pelican Pointe. I think I am fine where I am. What I like the best is the residents. We have a wonderful time. The people are very friendly. We do a lot of things together. We have a huge selection of food, too. In the evening, we have three main courses. There are two at lunch. If you're not happy with those, there's another page of meals that you can choose from. Ther are sandwiches, salads, or other things. There are lots of choices.
There are many activities. There are card games, swimming, exercising, movies, band concerts, symphonies, and artwork. People on the ground floor have gardens, and they can do that. I actually have an orchid garden on my lanai. There is so much to do that I can hardly keep up with it. The staff members here are wonderful. It's not a young community. It's been here for 20 or more years, and there are things that maybe could be done.

We went to Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe and we were blown away. It was top-of-the-line. It was like being at the Ritz Carlton. It was beautiful, very modern, and clean. We were very impressed. Of course, it was pricy, but it would be well worth it.
We were looking at independent living, but they have other wings that are assisted and memory care. I liked everything and there was nothing I didn't like except for the price, but you get what you pay for. It was nice because there are different buildings and so if you wanted to go to the main dining or whatever, they had drivers to pick you up and it was very easy to get around everything. The staff was very friendly and nice.
They offer everything, casino trips, bus trips, going to stores, a lot of activities during the day, music, and bingo. You name it, they have it, and probably if they don't have it, they would get it if you wanted it. That's the impression I got. The rooms were excellent. They were almost 1000 square feet, like a one-bedroom with a den or two bedrooms and your own separate eating area. It's absolutely beautiful. You can eat off the floor. It was great.

I moved into Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe, and it's excellent. They are very kind, supportive, and friendly. It's a really good deal. I would recommend it. I have a two-bedroom place, and it's very nice. They have several different choices. They have activities all the time.

Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe is in Venice, and I have friends and relatives close by. They have all three facilities, and it's easy moving from one facility to the other. They have four or five-star ratings already. They only had appetizers at that time, and they were fine. They had a gym, a salon, a card room, and a library. They had all the facilities that you need. It's near the hospital and malls. They have a van that takes you around.

We toured Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe. It was very good, very nice, a bright place, fairly new, and it had a big pool. The rooms were spacious, had large storage space, with lots of windows, and we liked it a lot. They had other levels of care. The atmosphere was very nice. They serve two meals a day, and they have a nice kitchen with appliances so you you can make other meals. It's very homey. They have a pool table, card games, they bring people in, and they have a really full calendar. They have transportation to doctors and wherever you want to go, and their amenities are all inclusive.

Terrible Food. Poor Services in the dining room. Decor is dated and worn.

Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe is where we want to go. The apartments were very nice and a good size. It's very comfortable. Everything about it was nice. We really liked it. It's beyond my expectations. They had a lot of amenities, like two swimming pools, an exercise room, and a barber shop. The dining area was very nice and very clean. The staff was very nice. The food was very good.

Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe was the one my mother was interested in. She would've loved it, but my dad said it looked like an old ladies club. I saw people playing bridge. The staff was excellent. We had lunch there, and their food was excellent. They gave me a doggie bag for cookies for my dad to bring home. My dad said it's too many women, but I like it. It's very nice.

My mom moved to Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe about a year ago. She's happy there, and she likes it. They have line dancing, Bingo, mahjong, and social dances. There are 2 meals a day, and each resident has their own kitchen.

After looking at Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe, we were interested in looking at the one in Tampa. My general impression was pretty good. This one in Pelican Pointe was a much nicer facility, but the location is a little too far away for us. It was a good, short visit. I noticed the lack of exercise facilities.

I visited Aston Gardens. They had independent living with kitchens in the rooms. They had activities, a library, computers, art classes, and a number of other things. They had a bulletin board of different activities every day. The scenery was very pretty.

Aston Gardens had several buildings all apart from but close to the common building. We had an OK but not outstanding lunch. They had a wonderful, large pool in an area that was not busy. The staff who showed us around explained the various programs and showed us the activity rooms. We saw art and exercise rooms, which were pretty similar to the other places I've visited.

I visited Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe and I like that very much. The atmosphere was very nice. It was very friendly and positive. People have fun there. I have friends there. The only thing I didn’t like is if you can’t stay in indepnedent living, you have to leave to go to another building, which is quite nice, but that’s a move that would be hard for my aunt. I wasn’t interested in that. I like the dining room. It was a little dark but it was nice. The rooms were very nice, but I don’t like the fact that they have a big kitchen. I like the staff because the staff was very nice, and they have worked there long-term, which is very important.

I ate at the Aston Gardens, and the food was wonderful. I was quite familiar with the place because I go there every other Tuesday to hear a lecture from the professor that comes down from Tampa. So I was kind of familiar with the surroundings, and I did visit them one other time. They have independent living and assisted living, and then memory care, so they're quite bigger than the others I've visited. When I went, though, they were booked up and didn't have a guest room or anything to show me. The dining facility was beautiful. I know they have bridge groups and lectures, and they go to a lot of shopping and take you to your doctors' appointments. They seemed very accommodating, and they were more expensive than the others. They have a beautiful clubhouse and a beautiful dining room with chandeliers.

We have not found anything negative about Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe. It is a wonderful place. I would recommend it to anybody. It is large. They have 300 apartments in 5 different buildings. The food is good. They have all kinds of activities.

We had lunch at Aston Gardens, and it was excellent. The dining area was extremely nice. We had no qualms about the place. It was easy to go around. They had medical facilities that they provided. They had transportation. The apartments were very nice. We only saw one, but it was big enough for use except that the lanai was very small. Other than that, the kitchen was beautiful because most of the people there still had the old-fashioned electric rings on the stove. They activities like swimming. They had a putting green there. We were really excited about it. We could go there without a doubt. However, the day we were there, the policy was that men had to wear long pants in the dining room after 4 o'clock, which did not appeal to me because I did not even own a pair of long pants. I found out a week later from friends that we referred there that that was changed and they could now wear shorts at dinner. You could have a continental breakfast and a dinner or a lunch, not both, but there was enough food for the people. You could take a doggie bag up and have it that night if you wanted. It was very close to a public supermarket. You could walk there.
The staff was very nice. We had a good feedback from other people we knew, and they loved it. From, what I had seen, I would recommend it to others. If you were walking from the outside into the building, the door would automatically open for you.

My parents were in Aston Gardens before. It was very nice. The staff was just fine, but it was independent living, so there wasn't a lot of interaction.

We visited Aston Gardens. The people were very well informed, very friendly, and cooperative. They were very helpful with the inquiries. The facility was extremely well set up. It was beautiful, and it had beautiful grounds. It was very nice because it had the three levels of care -- independent living, assisted living and memory care. The apartments were very well planned out. We had lunch, and the food was excellent. They did a wonderful job. It was a very good experience. They had a wide variety of activities, and they also offered transportation to doctor appointments and churches. The daily calendar was very well put together. It is a very superior facility.

I like Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe. It’s clean, and its location is excellent. Some of their residents were asked to be ambassadors and talked to us about how wonderful the facility was. They serve three meals a day. I also like the fact that you can have a small dog, and you get a first floor place.

We like the Aston Gardens. It was so beautiful. They do have covered walkways to apartment buildings. So if it is raining, you could walk and not get wet, but if you don't want to walk to the main building where the dining room is, they'll come with a golf cart to take you to the front door and drive you back if you don't want to walk or if you can't walk. The dining room was absolutely elegant. The food was delicious. The waiters and waitresses were very polite. The apartments were gorgeous. You have a kitchen nicer than my kitchen now, e.g., granite counters, all the appliances you could possibly want, and nice cupboard space. All the units have a small lanai. Each unit had its own washer and dryer, and that is a great feature. The hallways were well lit. They have a beautiful swimming pool, a beautiful outdoor Jacuzzi, and beautiful palm trees all around. Aston Gardens was gorgeous.

Services here at Aston Gardens are excellent. My apartment is spacious yet cozy. The housekeeping staff is courteous, pleasant and mostly effecient. The dining room is a beautiful place to enjoy various food served attractively by attentive staff. There are many enjoyable activities, games and lectures to keep me busy and interested. As needed, there is medical help, transportation to my doctors, security and a "fix-it" squad as well.

Among the things I enjoy in Aston Gardens the most are the camaraderie and companionship with everyone, the activities, food, and the carefree lifestyle. Here, we have no home to take care of and things are done for us. What more could I say? I existed in Georgia. Now, I am living in Aston Gardens!

After looking into fourteen independent living complexes, we chose Aston Gardens as the one that met our needs the best. After living here for nineteen months, we still believe that we made the right choice at the right time. We have made many new friends, have partaken in many activities, and have felt at home. We recommend living in this place and be surrounded with a caring and friendly staff.

My father was in independent living at Ashton Gardens. Ashton Gardens was great. He had a wonderful apartment with a nice kitchen, a microwave, and a dishwasher, which he never used. He also had washer and dryer in the apartment. There was a lot of entertainment. The dining room was luxurious. Everything was really wonderful. The relationship between the residents and the staff was very good. The only thing I didn't like was that if for some reason a resident couldn't get down to dinner, they charged $7 to bring up the food up. If he can't make it and you have somebody to go pick it up, it is $4.

Aston Gardens is clean and friendly, but the food is absolutely terrible. It is bland and tasteless, and they do not have provision for any special diet. It has many amenities that I really liked, but I cannot live there because of the food. They have a pool, fieldtrips, and companionship. My friend who lives there is very happy.

I visited Aston Gardens, and it's a very nice facility. They have a wide selection with regard to their apartments. We did not eat there, but we saw their dining room, and it was very nice. They have activities, and they gave very good information on what things were going on. They have game rooms and pool. They also go on short trips. Overall it was good. I have no complaints about the place.

I drive by Aston Gardens at Pelican Pointe all the time. It was a nice-looking place. They also have assisted living. It looked nice and I thought it would be a nice place to live. The rooms that I saw were nice; however, the people that showed me around didn't really impress me like they wanted us.

I looked for many places for my relatives in Sarasota County and Aston Gardens is by far the best. It is clean, well-run, staffed by experienced professionals, and everybody looks well-taken care of and happy. The
dining room is lovely and elegant with a friendly staff.
If anything needs repairing, someone is quickly at the
door. It is a quality place and the price is right.

Aston Gardens is very new and upscale. They would have buses to take them shopping and to their doctors. But you could still be independent and have your car there. They had big, big units. They had a nice dining room, a bar, a little library and an exercise room. They have a calendar of events with classes and field trips. It's one of the best around the area.

I visited Aston Gardens last year and was very impressed. The apartments give you the feel of independence that makes the residence feel comfortable. They have a very nice dining area that gives the feel of a nice restaurant more than a cafeteria. All the staff members that I encountered were very friendly and sincere. I work at a local hospital and have spoken with many residence and they speak very highly of this facility. I found it to be very clean with very cool Mediterranean architecture. There was a very nice pool area and several residents were pool side. The layout of this facility makes it very easy to move from one building to the next. There is a real sense of community here. While I was visiting a relative, 2 different people came by to check in since my car didn't look familiar. This made me feel like the place was very safe. They also had fence (and gate) around the complex and visible security.
