Tarantino Properties, Inc

My sister and I visited - good visit with lots of information provided by Erin. She was able all questions (on July 24th). Good value at 2 bedroom - 2 person set up. We will keep on our short list as this process develops for our parents. The rooms and general hallways, etc were nice.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for our loved one. This was a nice looking, clean community, and all of the staff seemed very friendly and knowledgeable. The community was separated into an independent living building, and an assisted living building. We liked the layout of the assisted living, it was a single floor and easy to navigate, but I think the residents there were a bit too far along in their care needs to be a good match for our loved one socially. We had a chance to try a meal in the dining room, and the food was very good. It also had a very lively, social atmosphere.

They didn’t address the memory care issues. This community has residents who are earlier in the progression of the disease and it was my second choice. If they could have helped with memory care issues, this would have been a better choice for us. I’d rate them highly across the board.

I've been pretty happy with it. It's relatively small. The price point was good, it was clean, friendly. The food is adequate, we don't really participate in the activities.

Visited facility on Sat. Feb. 1st and talked with Liz and Lola, memory care director as well as met their activity director. Liked the facility and staff were really friendly and did seem to know all the residents. It was a former nursing facility turned into memory care about 15 yrs ago. Liked that the assisted living and memory care did functions together which from my experience doesn't always occur.

Great for the money. They are updating apartments beautifully.

It's been good! It's been a little bit difficult, trying to get used to a schedule. I really, really like the way they have their meals so it's not so much like a cafeteria, more restaraunt style and they have a bistro in the evenings. The food is very good. They have a housekeeper that comes once a week. Communication with the maintenance could be a little better, sometimes you have to ask more than once to get things done.

They are going through a huge transition, and they are improving greatly. I think any complaints and issues are already being handled and improved. They were the best fit for our budget. I'm pretty happy overall. I'm thankful for A Place For Mom, Dale was great, this was a tough transition for us.

It's very clean and they're extremely friendly. The care is very good. They have activities all day long, all the time. They have a little bit of everything from bingo and cards to playing the piano and you name it. It's going well so far.

It's very, very clean, my moter is very particular about that kind of stuff so that's one of the first things she noticed is the cleanliness of things. The whole area, the grounds, inside and outside is very clean. They're very friendly and very attentive to the moods of their clients because it can go up and down during the day. The care is not excellent but I haven't had any issues. She's just trying to find her niche right now, it's an adjustment for everybody but there are definitely several activities throughout the week and then they have outings once a week. Everyday they for sure have a different thing they do, they go to walmart or the grocery store, then they'll go to a museum or go somewhere in the community. This location was really good and for the money, she got more square footage. Eventually, she's going to have to have hip surgery and they have a physical therapist on site so we wouldn't have to take her somewhere else.

Just got new carpet. Nice theater with comfy chairs, beauty salon. Variety of floor plans.

I liked it a lot. I didn't choose Greenhaven Estates partly because a lot of their activities were heavily casino or gambling games oriented which I knew was something that my mother would not be interested in. Also, my mom likes to sit out on her patio and the patio on the first floor is walled in so I thought that was not really what she would enjoy. It was really sort of minor details that made the difference.

The quality of the meals I would give a 5 but the service of the meals I would give a 3 and that's because they're in the process of remodeling their dining room. My mom's had some problems with seating and service. Other than that it's been absolutely perfect. She's really enjoying the activities. She plays bridge and they do bingo once or twice a week. They do senior chair exercises - she's really enjoying them. I like the location, for me. It know that's different for everyone but for me the location is a real plus. I like the fact that each apartment has an interior courtyard that if faces and all the courtyards have a different theme. One has the pool, one has a putting green, one has a garden area. There are a lot of trees and shade. It makes you feel more homey.

It's pretty nice. The value was really good. She got in when they were offing a special. They're redoing their dining room area so they cut quite a bit off their monthly rent. Her one bedroom is about $1200 a month. They are still serving meals even though they're redoing the dining area. To me there are plenty of activities. To my aunt, she doesn't think there are enough but I think it's just because she doesn't participate. They don't have as many common areas as some of the other places we looked at.

I knew the price wouldn't be comparable to what we needed. I had a friend who was there but it was jsut too far from my other brother. It's a very nice place though, the upkeep was very nice, the dining was very nice also.

My aunt is there. From what I understand it's a very nice place. Her granddaughter is very happy with it and has no complaints. Whether my aunt is happy there is another story but she's being well taken care of. It's a good situation for her and the place is good.

It was very good. I have a friend whose mother is there and she's very happy. That's why I went to look at it for my father. It's a larger place - larger than the place my father is now.

I can say my aunt likes it here, she's really happy with terrace.

Liked the facilities and grounds. Meals looked appetizing. Amenities met all our needs.

It was lovely - very nice! It was two story, that was one of the drawbacks and the staff was a little bit more attentive at the other Colonial Oaks we looked at. It was also too far away from where my sister-in-law lived.
