Recent reviews of Assisted Living in Gulf Pines, FL
Brookdale Destin
4.1

My only negative comment is that the management, while doing a lot to help my Mom and we're very grateful to them, were a little pushy about trying to get my Mom to stay there, rather than leave and go to her home in Wisconsin, where she is now and is very happy. I understand they need and want permanent residences but they were a little hard on her.

I'd say that families need to know that the base rent charged is not the only monthly expense. Depending on the number of care points assessed, this additional cost can be an unpleasant surprise and isn't talked about much. As far as The Beacon at Gulf Breeze is concerned, it is a good facility with caring staff throughout the organization and I would recommend it to others.

The Arbors of Gulf Breeze

They do have social activities but I think that it would be great if they did an orientation for the new residents to get used to the community and have someone that they can speak to if they have some issues. It would be nice to meet monthly and check in with residents for any new things, issues or good things that you want to share. The administrative staff work very hard and are very pleasant to work with. We get information in pieces and it would be nice if more communication was there.
