My mom moved from independent living there to assisted living at Amira choice now Legends. She likes being inside the building. All of the people have been extremely nice and helpful and sweet. My family is very happy and my mom is making lots of new friends. I am so grateful to the wonderful woman who helped us get my mom moved and the social Director there who is very nice and helps elderly people make new friends. Love the desk girls too. They are super friendly and helpful. Update: I Love This Friendly Retirement Community. I just spent two nights and 3 days there making sure my 95 year old mom was ok because she had a short hospital stay as her blood pressure spiked. My mom and I came back and everyone was so sweet, especially the director of nursing and her staff were very, very helpful and nice and super accommodating. They are friendly and truly care about your parent in assisted living. Very organized in nursing dept. The dining room staff was so sweet and friendly, that is why the residents love going to breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The chef is very good. I never met him, but the food was perfect! They keep the place super clean and have workouts four days a week before lunch for the residents. Great exercise teacher. Every time I put a basket of trash out in the hallway, it was gone immediately. The cleaning staff is so good. The front desk girls are adorable and friendly. That is why they have a waiting list and my mom has lived here in independent, living and assisted living. Soon she’ll be 96 And I feel so comfortable having her stay there all the people, including the residents are the sweetest ever! Legends of Sarasota deserves five stars! I had fun visiting my mom!
My mother is on the Memory Care side and she loves it. The facility is very clean and the only smells you get are the aroma of good food. They have a lovely common area decorated like something out of New Orleans or Main Street Disney. This fun common area is filled with long tables containing coloring or puzzle projects for the residents and a large fake tree which reaches to the baby blue ceiling.
The staff is amazing and take great care of mom. I visited several memory care clinics before selecting this one, and this was one of the cleanest and loveliest. The prices are very reasonable depending on which level of care is needed. There is an Assisted Living side which can be visited by the MC residents if they are accompanied by someone. I recommend this place if you or a loved one needs either Assisted Living or Memory Care.
A little over a year ago we finally made the decision to move to Independent Living at Amira Choice. For several years we checked out many senior living places but we knew, one day it will be here.
We have so many dedicated and competent people at Amira and our life is a happy one. People are kind and very friendly and our knowledgeable Chef is spoiling us many times.
I miss my large garden at our former house but we have some pots on our spacious balcony with view towards our beautiful pool with water aerobic twice a week.
Having changed ownership a few times since my mom moved to this facility I can honestly say the current management is the best yet. The facility is lovely but it is the people that matter and the staff are wonderful and attentive. They’ve become like family and I rest very easy (now!) with my mom living there. She loves her friends -
residents and staff, and has her perfect mix of social time and “alone time” - whatever she’s in the mood for. She’s a reader and she inspired a special library hang out right outside her door. Her balcony is her absolute happy place! There were some rocky times with the other management but it’s been smooth sailing since becoming Sagewynn.
Mom has had a wonderful experience, especially since The Goodman group purchased the facility. Nursing staff is incredibly loving and caring; administrative staff is caring and responsive. Mom has made wonderful friends with staff and residents. Our family is comforted and grateful knowing that our Mom is so well cared for.
