Thank you for taking the time to leave us this review. We are happy to hear that you're finding so much to do at Merrill Gardens and enjoying your time so far.
Merrill Gardens ChampionsGate has exceeded my expectations that I wanted for my mother. I'm beyond pleased!!!
Mom has been living in an apartment at Merrill Gardens Champions Gate Memory Care, for 4 weeks now. So far so good. She seems to be happy and says she has been well taken care of. Helps put my mind at ease. So difficult to try and do everything for her at home, when I am still working full time.
Location is awesome, beautiful surroundings, great atmosphere, nice, comfortable rooms, many staff on site , very pleasant!! Very accommodating - special needs/hospice.
Great new place, just opened Dec 2017. Beautiful facilities, many options for dining, physical activity and social events and gathering. Rooms nicely sized and very inovative, client oriented pricing options. Highly impressed !
The food is not good and the food service is worse than that . It takes over an hour to get your food in there. Last week it took one hour to get a hamburger. An hour! That is totally insanity! And on top of that, I saw a water bug yesterday !

I am rating the facility based on my interactions with the staff and observations. I rated the food and activities a 2. The Glades is undergoing another management company change. I understand this is the third management company in 5 – 6 years. Is this typical? I am hoping, as is my Mom, that the food will be better under the new management company. We are disappointed that the facility does not have a choir or Bridge club, as they stated when we signed on. They seem to have a lot of activities, just not the ones that my Mo... read more

I was unaware that my mother would need a physician's approval prior to her acceptance. We were far into the process when this was brought up. It took weeks to set up the doctor appointment, and this delayed her move-in date. Also, the corporation operating the Glades is changing in April, so more changes to come!

We understand how frustrating this can be, and appreciate your patience throughout the process.
