Recent reviews for independent living in Cana

The Cabana at Jensen Dunes in Jensen Beach, FL

4.3
It was positive but intake staff did not do a very thorough job making sure all documents were in order and when a DNR situation arose this created a crisis. My dad ended up passing away from Covid contracted during his stay - total time in Cabana was less than 2 weeks.

Brookdale Stuart

4.9
Brookdale Stuart is a smaller community so they can really focus on and get to know the residents. A lot of the staff has been there for many, many years which says a lot to me. They are so caring, kind and helpful, we definitely found the right place for our mother. They are truly angels on ...
