Best independent senior facility in Venice, FL

Venetian Gardens is a wonderful facility where the staff really care for the residents, the food staff listens to residents in what they like and don't like and remember from meal to meal, and the value for the money is excellent. I will to recommend this facility to everyone I talk to. I brought one of my mother's friends over for a visit and now she is moving in! I love this place.

We made an announced stop at Venetian Gardens by Sky Active Living and were pleasantly greeted by the manager. She was very nice and helpful in providing us information and a tour of the facility. It is definitely a place we will be revisiting when the time is right.

My experience is I'm very happy with my choice

I would answer 5 to all the questions as everyone has been very helpful and kind. There are so many things to do. I would definitely recommend. I realize it isn't the place for some people but they have the choice to make for themselves.

To be honest the price And, it seems more like an apartment building in that the residents are very, very independent. Yet, there is meals and light cleaning and laundry. So best for someone who is very, very independent and able

Needs improvement

I think some of these are harsh, the first 4 months were not as bad as now....food is really bad and the administration says it will get better, but it doesn't.....the cook just doesn't know how to cook. There is no one here at night, and we are told that 24-7 is not going to happen. We love our apartment, but both the outside and inside are in poor condition. Renovations are supposed to start around [date removed], but we have been told that for months....only time will tell.

Best thing is the other residents---they are friendly, bright, and engaged in life, unlike the last two residences I was in. Worst thing is lack of healthy food choices. Food is good but doesn't work if you have diabetes or a heart condition.

I believe the staff is helpful and kind. My family member doesn't need a lot of activities but they have enough to keep her occupied. The facility is nice although not super modern.

Venetian Gardens by Sky Active Living review

The amenities are just like [facility removed]. The food is better. We are going to be renovated very soon. I think biggest problem is communication between management and residents. A lot has to do with being independent living. Also some residents are not truly independent when they come into Sky Active. Keeping help is difficult as well.

Independent, not Assisted Living.

Numerous staffing problems / turnover because they are overworked. Building starting to show signs of aging (like residents) Management could do better on landscaping. Some residents are too frail for independent living. Entry requirements? Management doesn't keep simple lists like residents who have vehicles and license plates. Has to go around and ask who owns car X? Overall, a good place to stay when you have nowhere else to go.

Our family's experience at Venetian Gardens was overall very good! The staff, facility, meals and room were great!.....

The dining room was good, just needed extra flexible hours and options. Not always strict time sit down. Seems there is never any staff around at times to ask questions too. They have had some staffing changes recently. My mom does love her apartment and the place!! In her opinion it is a 10! Our family's experience at Venetian Gardens was overall very good! The staff, facility, meals and room were great! Clean and a happy place.

Nice place to live

New management in last year. Upgrades will be made. Pleasant location. I looked at 2 or 3 floor plans and all seemed good. Mine is 1 bedroom with kitchenette (full size refrigerator) a 3 door pantry and 2 closets in bedroom so I feel very good about the space. It is 549 sq ft.
