My mother has been at Venetian Gardens for 6 years and she could not be happier. She is surrounded by caring, supportive people who work in management, food services, bus drivers, health care, exercise classes, housekeeping, repairs. All of the VG personnel are outstanding and we could not find a more caring senior community in Florida!

I can sleep well at night knowing my mother is safe at Venetian Gardens. The staff is always checking in on her and have called in medical staff when they were concerned for her health. I would like to see more activites for mom that take her away from town. Things like theater, concerts, shopping at UTC. Also, as folks age they need a bit more stimulating activities. Maybe chair Zumba!

I am very happy living here. My sister and nephew found The Venetian Gardens for me - moved me here - the right choice. They also put my condo on the market - now sold and closing complete. I was unable to take care of anything for various reasons. I am now doing quite well on my own - beginning to walk on my own and some use of my right arm. Pain is lessening. Communal eating still is a problem but I keep working at it.

Lovely surroundings. Excellent staff - friendly & helpful, if a little under staffed. Food is certainly sufficient. Atmosphere is positive, even though we all have aging health issues. The pool is a big plus, although not used much. I love the independence this facility allows. I feel privileged to be here.

I have lived in this community with my wife, and since her death, alone. I found both to be very satisfactory. The staff is excellent and friendly. The food is no more institutional than one could expect, in most instances better than normal for large volume cooking. The facility is comfortable and well maintained.

I'm into my 6th year here. I've enjoyed the programs, the friendships, the caring staff and the wide choice of activities. I expect to be here till they carry me out. I checked out a lot of independent residences in the Venice/ North Port/ Sarasota area before I made my decision. This was my first choice and still is.

I definitely recommend the Venetian Gardens to seniors looking for an all-inclusive retirement community. They provide three meals a day which are good, as well as the service. The servers are friendly and really enjoy working here. All smiles!

I chose to live here because of neighborhood proximity to my daughter. Excellent personnel - managers & activity director are efficient and try to maintain a good standard for all workers. Housekeeping staff works very hard keeping building vacuumed & cleaned. Landscapers maintain flowers & bushes, grass cut. Food is OK and menu tries to include meats, fish & poultry. Thanks to all!!!

The glue that holds this community together is the paid staff. They are very professional and yet caring and sensitive. I believe this encourages the residents to act the same way to one another. It is the best possible outcome for a population in advanced age. Much better than I anticipated!
