Most everyone at Portside at Grande Dunes seems happy. They have a good Church service there onsite each week on Saturday, mom and Frank seem to be very happy. The staff is continuing to push them with physical therapy of some type pretty much every week day which is so good for them. They have many options for physical therapy too
Portside is one of the nicest in the area... I looked at 7 or 8. It is a little pricey but similar to others I visited.
Food sometimes good they are trying to improve. Some of the menu items are not healthy or not good. Friendliness and activities very good. They don't recycle yet not good. . will work on it. Staff is good. Facility attractive. I would like to see more people in Independent living who are not on walkers.
Portside at Grande Dunes community is a wonderful place staffed by caring people, we would give them all 5 stars. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to others - my 90 year old mother-in-law is very happy there. There is also a 10% discount for military service.
I am currently a resident at Portside at Grande Dunes and most everything has been great for me so far. The move in process went smoothly. The staff is great. The meals give good alternatives if you don't want the listed entrees. The other residents here are okay, but some tend to be very cliquish. Overall, I would recommend Portside at Grande Dunes to others.
My Mom has been living at Portside since November, 2022. We've seen constant turnover across key management positions, poor food service quality, and two price increases. It's a beautiful building, but maybe their wage schedule isn't right for the area.
Care & food did improve. The management does listen and will improve the issues (if you talk to upper management). Make sure they are certified and or trained properly to assist for certain conditions. Like my mom was wearing a back brace after a back up operation and they were unable to put this brace on properly and none of them said they had ever been trained.
We are enjoying Portside, the staff that deal day to day with my parents are wonderful, kind, empathetic. While the medical staff are good, they are not easy to get ahold of so I haven't enjoyed that as much. The front desk people are wonderful and nice with my parents, the dining room staff have lots of patience! We have enjoyed the food here, surprisingly. The homemade soups are very good. My father is dying, but we will be keeping my mom in the same lovely two bedroom unit. It's large and airy.
I would tell others looking into Portside at Grande Dunes to ask questions and speak to directors about "level of care". Based off of our experience, I would recommend the facility to others.
