Oakmonte Village at Lake Mary Valencia

5.0
Excellent facility. Wonderful staff. Amazing experience. My step father moved in within 2 weeks and has received top care ever since! We are so lucky to have found such an amazing place. Thank you "Aplaceformom" for helping us locate this facility.

Encore at Avalon Park in Orlando, FL

5.0
Living in Puerto Rico, it was important to me and my siblings to find a place that would provide the best care for my mother. Having her live at Encore has provided me with peace of mind while living overseas that mom is well-taken care.

Overture Dr. Phillips 55+ Apartment Homes in Orlando, FL

4.9
The community is well run and safe, this is a healthy environment, and it's just like a family and we take care of each other. They have a heated pool for exercise and are trying to keep going with social distancing activities. I would recommend this community to others
