What families are saying about independent living in Tybee Island

Recent reviews for independent living in Tybee Island

Okatie Pines Retirement Community

4.9
I would definitely recommend Okatie Pines Retirement Community! The staff go out of their way to be helpful. There has not been a need for the staff to communicate with us yet, so I'm not sure about communication with the family. The meals, I would give a 4 out of 5, they could be improved.

The Social at Savannah

3.7
We cannot rate the care services because we are in the independent living center. What we like the most about The Social at Savannah is the management and the people as a whole.
