We have had my mother there for 6 months so far and have nothing but good things to say about Sarabella. They have looked after my mother incredibly well. All the staff are very friendly and helpful and the menu is wonderful. My mother is very happy with the food. They have a wonderful activities department and have so many different programs on offer. I couldn't recommend Sarabella highly enough
Great place very clean s staff was accommodating. They had an event going on why we were there good participation, residents and staff. I definitely recommend this community. In addition, the concierge desk is very accommodating.
I visited this community because i pass their sign very day on my way to work. My mom was home alone and wasn't eating well. I finally decided to stop in on my way home the other day and was so happy about what i saw. Residents doing spin class when i entered the community and a very nice young British man that answered all my questions. My mom is moving in next week.
The facility is beautiful, brand new, hurricane strong, and many services in-house: cleaning, laundry, meds, Dr., PT if needed, 3 meals a day, activities, small library, salon appts., van available for trips to stores, church. Can't say enough good about them! The only thing I wish they had is some sort of liaison person/position there to help with issues that arise that my parents need help with at times.
I thought Sarabella was amazing. The place was spotless. It was newer, bigger, more modern - all of which I loved. But those things weren't to my loved one's personal preference. She was looking for a more comfortable (to her) environment.
It's beautiful. The people are very friendly. They are sometimes understaffed. My loved one likes the food. We picked this community because, it ws close to the house, it was brand new, and they offered a discount.
I really really liked Sarabella Senior Living. This was definitely our second choice - we liked everything that we saw. The staff were all wonderful but unfortunately the location was too far from our family.
Our mom lived at SaraBella for 8 months. Staffing was a revolving door: at least 7 nurses, 5 activities directors, and a perpetual turnover among aides/med techs. We often encountered residents unattended; on many visits, our mother was sitting in wet and/or soiled clothing. Staff were often on phones: cell phone policy appeared unenforced. Nutrition/hygiene were troubling. Fruit was initially withheld from memory care; one staff member in the kitchen suggested we’d need an MD's note. "Fruit cost too much," he claimed.

Staff is left unsupervised and are not trained to do their jobs. They sell you a bill of goods, then can't deliver. You would think with the high rents they charge, you would get at least a decent meal and occasional entertainment. This place is lifeless, so we moved on to a well managed facility where the staff are experienced and friendly. Life's too short to stay in a miserable place.
