My mother has been a resident for over a year now, and I have been tremendously pleased with all aspects of the Manor. The facilities are clean, modern, and welcoming. The staff has been kind, caring, and helpful. Whenever there has been an issue, and there hasn't been many, it's been resolved quickly and efficiently. The administration and staff have gone above and beyond to make my mother's stay enjoyable. Highly recommend!
My mother is currently a resident at Luxe Senior Living at Jupiter and everything has been great for her at this facility so far. The staff is always alert and helpful. Communication with the family is very good. The move in process was effortless. The meals seem to be good and healthy. I would 100% recommend Luxe Senior Living at Jupiter to family and friends.
