Get directionsI’ve toured several places in the Sarasota/Venice area and Sarabella stands out above them all. It’s a comfortable place that feels more like home than a facility. The staff I have observed obviously care about the residents. When you see staff calling residents by name as they greet them while walking down the hall, see servers remembering little things about resident’s preferences while taking their meal order time after time, hear residents praise those who care for them, you know Sarabella is doing things right.

I was told many times that something would happen, but that wasn't communicated to the right people and so it didn't. The yard is beautiful, activities are great, staff is very friendly and food is very good. The only downside is a lack of communication between care admin's and their respective staff. Potential residents should ask for specifics for what their own personal care plan will look like and then hold them to it!!
Business response:

We appreciate your honesty regarding communication between care admins and staff, and we are actively working on improving this to ensure smoother coordination. Your advice to future residents is valuable, and we encourage open dialogue to ensure that each care plan is followed closely. If you have any further suggestions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We're always here to make your experience the best it can be! Denise Kircher, Executive Director
The community is beautiful, bright and open with luxury outdoor areas to experience. The staff are friendly and always smiling. They have up to 7 activities a day to choose from and they even hosted their own Summer Olympics. The food is also good and I love all the different ice cream flavors they offer. It has been a great experience so far and I’m looking forward to the holidays. I’ve heard they go all out for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

All 8 would be a 5! The only issue we had was that dad had a very hard time adapting to a new schedule. At 97, he expected the staff to adapt to HIS precise schedule. Once he had a written schedule and he accepted that the staff had other residents that needed help at the same time, he was a little more forgiving. I'm sure that he was very grateful for all the help he did have! The staff was wonderful! I didn't know how they deal with some of the residents in a day to day basis. Amazing.
Business response:

I toured Sarabella very clean staff was very pleasant overall great experience. the courtyard is amazing great view. Also the food looked delicious. Concierge was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Greeted right away when entering the community.
This place is amazing and feels like home. The staff are so friendly and the community is beautiful. There is a lot to do inside and outside here and the grounds are beautiful. The food is made fresh every day and their homemade soup is excellent. I am so happy I'm here for the holidays and all the fall decorations are wonderful. I can't wait to attend all the holiday parties.
The front desk greeted me with a smile and was very helpful. As I was touring every staff member spoke to me and asked if I had any questions, they would be happy to help. The inside and the grounds are kept up very well. There was no smells. I did have a change to speak to residents and all seemed very happy to live there.
I reluctantly moved into an assisted living on the recommendation by my daughter and doctor. Since moving in I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. The meals and menu are always tasty. The activities are varied and entertaining. They have entertainers in most weeks to sing/ dance/ play music for us. All of the staff are amazing and will help in anyway they can. They even have a shabbat service on Fridays and special holiday menus. Overall a wonderful place to live! I would recommend it to anyone.
It is new with excellent facilities , and they have helpful staff. I would recommend to other families.
