The staff at Acclaim at East Beach makes family feel welcome. The move in process was a bit rocky, but has improved. You pay extra for housekeeping, but its worth it. The food is okay. The menu doesn't change much, great fish tacos and a Cobb salad to die for. We would highly recommend Acclaim at East Beach to others.

I tell my friends, I want to live at Acclaim. We picked this community, because they have more activities, that my loved one would engage in. Travel to grocery stores, outside activities provided. Place is bright and airy. Makes Mom happy. Always something to do to keep her busy. I would recommend to others for sure.

hardworking staff, overall satisfied, a positive experience

My only remark is that there is not enough staff as many have left. I do not know the reasons but the remaining staff works very hard to keep the residents happy. It is obvious that they are understaffed however. I would still absolutely recommend Acclaim at East Beach to others looking.

Acclaim at East Beach, plus 65 community - outstanding facility.

The staff are very supportive and friendly - they are outstanding. The facility is very clean. There are many vets here and it is next to the Little Creek Navy Basse. The restaurant is good and has a great selection on the menu. There are many scheduled activities. It is expensive, but I thought worth the money. They are building an assisted living building next door. It is worth the time to check out!

Review for Acclaim at East Beach

It's a brand new building, up to date facilities, view of the marina, easy walk to the beach, couple of restaurants within walking distance, and 0.5 mile to HRT public transportation. Flexible choice of meal plan, not locked into having to pay for fixed meal plan, residents can dine and charge without having to subscribe to meal plan, daily nutritious continental breakfast without extra charge. Cook breakfast available for a charge ($5-$7). Three large elevators, beautiful theatre, indoor pool for water aerobics, and gym for exercises & yoga. Bar area for residents to socialize. Frequent visiting artists to perform for residents in the theater. U-Tube movies in the theater for residents. Assistant Living building adjacent to the Independent Living building in the process of being built, ready in 2024 for residents who need more care to move into. 24 hours concierge's services. Night concierge check on residents with special needs like heart problems, several times in the night. An outdoor pool to be built situated by the marina. (Expect to be ready in late 2024.) Residents can join (with fee) as members.

Buyer Beware

The maintenance team has been good at fulfilling any requests. The meal prices compared to the portions is higher, than I think should be charged. They have a good continental breakfast for the residents. The residents have the ability to cook in their apartments, as there is a full kitchen in the apartment. The community provides a shuttle for the residents to use for appointments and more within a 10 mile radius of the community. It would be nice to have the ability to go into Downtown Norfolk for residents to be able to see specialty doctors. The pricing is more than I thought it would be, and I would make sure that you are able to afford all the costs. The Activities Director quit on the spot, and there was supposed to be a new Activities Director coming into the community, but haven't seen them yet. [name removed] is a real jewel for the residents and community. Also it would be nice to have the community listen to the resident's ideas for field trips, activities, and changes within the community.

Happy sister

My sister chose Acclaim at East Beach because she said the virtual tour was amazing and blew the others out of the water. She said the gal was super friendly and introduced her to another resident. The apartment sizes are ok, she is in a one bedroom and it is a good size for her. She is short and some of the cabinets in the kitchen are higher than expected, but the kitchen is really big and nice. The placement of the washer and dryer is weird- it is in the living room. They are a little bit disorganized on the timing of the activities - but they are learning their ways - it is a newer facility. The food is really good, but they have not really changed the menu since she moved in. I think they could use more variety, but the quality of the meals is amazing. I would definitely recommend Acclaim at East Beach to others, my sister is happy.

Acclaim - a great place for seniors. I would highly recommend.

They're really a great organization. The staff are very friendly, responsive, and hands-on. It's obvious that they care about the elderly and want to make things exciting and safe for them. It's a really a great community. The food needs some work - it could use more selection. But I think they're aware of that and working on it.
