Westminster Point Pleasant in Bradenton, FL

5.0
Westminster Point is the best in the area based on the total value and what you get. You get what you pay for. Room sizes and community layout are excellent. The food is excellent. The services are great.

Sarabella Senior Living in Sarasota, FL

3.9
Its hard to get a hold of someone in memory care to ask questions or take care of my mom. Also, we just moved in a couple months ago and all of a sudden the rent went up [fee removed] per month which is not acceptable for us. We would never have chosen Sarabella if it was [fee removed] a month.

Cypress Springs in Bradenton, FL

5.0
The move in was great. Bought the place furnished. The staff is friendly and housekeeping is weekly and does a great job. I would recommend this facility to others.
