Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie

Elaine

Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie was a very friendly and very caring place. It's very homey and the dining room has cloth napkins and linen tablecloths. They have a library and laundry rooms on each floor and they check every day to make sure you're OK. They have people that will put up the shelves you bought if you need them and they're willing to help whatever you'd like them to help you do. They have lots of things to do, like bingo, shuffleboard, water aerobics, games, puzzles, and a workout room. Plus, it's quite beautiful. I saw a one-bedroom and it looked like it would be very comfortable. It's also very clean and I think it's going to be wonderful. We were invited for lunch and the food was good.

My friend is in Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie. It's an independent living facility which can go to assisted living if needed. She's good where she's at now. I don't know much about the facility. I've been there once to visit her, and I'm going to go again this weekend. It's a beautiful facility. It is just really impressive. Now that things are opening up and most seniors have been vaccinated for COVID, they're beginning to have more activities and so forth for the residents. My friend is in a small, one-bedroom apartment, which is very nice. They have a library on each floor, including a large-print library. It's well run. I know they have three meals a day. I feel hesitant to put a rating on the place, the reason being my friend is extremely fussy and no place is going to satisfy her completely. I can only go on what I saw when I was there. I don't know anything about how quick they are to respond if there's a problem or if the food is that good. I met the staff only at the check-in desk. They have two main entrances, there's a desk at each entrance, and they have an electronic check-in procedure that actually takes a photograph of your face and matches it when you sign in. They seem to be very courteous and willing to answer questions. I haven't eaten there. My friend's very fussy. She likes very light California cuisine with weird kinds of lettuce and that kind of thing. They have a Mississippi night where they could have their choice of ribs, shrimp, and all sorts of different kinds of cuisine, and she seemed to enjoy that. I think they probably do pretty well with the food. It's just that she's so fussy. It's very clean and very well kept. During COVID, when everything was shut down, they didn't have gatherings, but now they are starting to have them again. I know she goes to art class, and she plays a couple of games -- Rummikub and something else. I really don't know what all activities they have going right now; I just know that they've started up again now that most everybody has been vaccinated.

I saw the Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie. I've dealt with the head gal there, and she's awesome. The rooms were nice. I thought the food was fine. They gave you a menu, it's kind of like going to a restaurant, and it was good. There's nothing to complain about. It's a very beautiful place.

gone and happy to be.

A very nice concept. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Activities are varied and a lot of fun. The only deficit is one of the residents feels she is in charge and the rest of the residents do what she says and makes it so a lot of residents do not want to participate in activities. The former director let her run the facility as she wants no matter that she bullies many people and causes them to go to other facilities where they are all equal. She is definitely guilty of elder abuse.

We decided on Harbor Place. The apartments were lovely, spacious, convenient, and met all our needs. They have a variety of activities, outings, and it's a nice, social atmosphere. They encourage friendships and relationships, which is important. The dining area was very nice, the service was good, and the staff was lovely. The fellow residents we dined with had nothing but nice things to say about the place. They have a beauty shop, a little gift store, a pool, card rooms, movie rooms, and a library.

Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie was a very beautiful place. I liked it. They had little apartments. When you walk in, there's a bathroom to the right, the bedroom was straight ahead, the little kitchen area to the left, and a little outdoor balcony. They were small, but nice and had just enough space. The food was excellent. The staff was very informative and very helpful. They had an arts and crafts room, a lot of activities going on, a lot of trips to go shopping, lunches, and day trips. The grounds, the lobby area, and common areas were beautiful. My friend was very happy there.

Visitor

I know two ladies who are at Harbor Place, and they're very happy there. Their one-bedroom apartment seems small to me, but my friends seem quite happy with it. There's a lot to do. They have Wii games, bridge, mahjong, movies, and bingo. There is also a bus that would take people to different places. My friends think their food is good. Another thing I like about Harbor Place is its location because it is right down close to where the shops.

Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie was a nice one. They persevere very well trying to get you to come there. It is very nice, but we are very happy where we are. We weren’t there very long, but it seemed very nice. We ate there once, and it was alright.

Our experience at Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie was very nice. The apartments were nice except for the kitchen, which was inadequate. They had a lot of programs and lectures which we, as outsiders, were invited to, so we attended a couple, like one on nutrition. The staff was very helpful. I was impressed with them.

I visited Harbor Place, and the people who showed me around were very nice. They had very nice grounds and everything was beautiful. The apartment was set up very nicely. I can't say anything negative about it. Everything was there. I've been there three or four times and it's lovely. It's like walking into a beautiful hotel with a big courtyard in the middle. It's away from the main traffic area which is good and the rooms are nice with high ceilings and balconies on some. They have two meals a day and a nice menu to choose from that changed every day. I could take my little dog with me. There's covered parking, and a little deli where you could have lunch on your own, and a little gift store where you can get aspirin or toothpaste if you run out. They were very accommodating. In one three-story building was all independent, and in a separate building is the assisted. There's also a building in front where people go for physical therapy. There were people playing cards in one room, and they had a nice pool area, workout area, and a big ballroom area. They do a full buffet breakfast with everything. For dinner, there's always fish and another special, plus the regular menu, so you have a choice of two specials or the regular menu. It was beautiful. The value was certainly there.

Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie is a beautiful facility with nice grounds. They had lovely apartments, beautiful dining room and library. It was very lovely, very nicely done. The lady who assisted me during my visit gave a lot of information. It sounds like a place where if my father needed to go; that’s where he would go. They have dances, all kinds of arts and crafts, and card games. They take the residents to the beach, shopping mall. On certain days, they have outings. There’s a lot of activities going on.

What I liked about Harbor Place was that if you needed to go in for a rehab, they had a facility right across the street; they weren’t so separated. They could easily go across and see that person rather than them being so far away. It was very clean; the rooms were nice and laid out well. It was definitely a true aging place.

I was interested in Harbor Place. I happened to live two lights away from it, and my doctor also gave me that name. I visited it. The whole place was nice. They had activities like they played cards and swam. I liked the location. I thought the apartments were very nice. The few people that I met were very nice. I thought it had everything that I would need. The dining area was very nice.

The visit at Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie was OK, but I didn’t care for the woman who was leading us around. It didn’t have many amenities. It was a little dark, but it was clean. The rooms are small.

disappointed

I recently visited Harbor Place to look for a place for my father. It seemed ok but I noticed that a lot of the residents in the assisted living had private aides or nurses with them. I spoke to a couple of residents who said that they were advised to get "Additional" help to make sure that all of their needs could be met! I am sorry,but, if I am going to pay somewhere between $4000.00- $ 5500.00 per month and you can't provide all of my fathers needs, then you should not be in the assisted living business. When I spoke up about it, they really just lost interest in everything else.

Harbor Place was very nice, and the rooms were nice too. The food was good; I ate there. The people were very nice as well. I would rate it a 4, not a 5 because I am the kind of person that would prefer my laundry in my apartment, not downstairs. They showed us some of the rooms, they play cards, and other things.

I didn't get to see the rooms in Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie when I went in to talk to somebody. She basically told me how much it was and that it would be anywhere between $4,000 and $6,000. When I kind of blinked my eyes and I said I couldn't afford that, she didn't even bother to even show me anything. She just kind of brushed me off. She didn't even act like she wanted to work with me or try to give me any ideas or anything. So, I said, "Fine. Okay, thank you. Goodbye".

I thought they were great. I know a few people that have moved in there, and they love it. It was clean, and the food was extremely good. It's just a whole different atmosphere, and I liked it. They showed us all kinds of recreation rooms; they had a lot going on. If I was moving in now myself, I would definitely go to Harbor Place.

My sister moved to Harbor Place. She has a very nice comfortable room with quite adequate facilities for her needs. It has two bedrooms, a kitchen, a family room, and a terrace. She's very happy there. The staff is excellent. The few times that I have stayed and eaten there, the food has been excellent, and they are quite happy with the food themselves.

Harbor Place was a really good place. That's where my mother is in right now. Everything is just absolute premier. She has been there for two years now. This place is like a home where everybody feels very comfortable.

My mother is living at Harbor Place for two and a half months. I am happy because it was her decision and it is working out very well. She is in a good size room with one bedroom and closet, a small kitchen with decent size living and dining room and with a lovely large bathroom. She was familiar with the place because before she moved there, she had been visiting the place to play bridge as the facility allows people from the outside to go in and participate in their activities. The staff is wonderful. They answer our questions and give us great information. Since my mother moved in there, every day she talks about how happy she is to be there. She is very busy. She goes to her exercise class every day. She loves the meals. In fact, my son and his family come over there and we have a lovely dinner in their dining room. My mom loves everything about it and we are very happy.

Living at Harbor Place would be wonderful for a people like me. It would be like living in a beautiful hotel or a five star resort. However, it was too big for my dad and he would not be able to navigate that. I thought it wasn't geared for old people. I also didn't see a single resident when I was there.

I place my Aunt at Harbor Place at Port St. Lucie and it is an absolutely phenomenal place. It is like a five star hotel. When you walk in, it does not have an odor. My Aunt had an apartment and they clean it every day. They change her bed and wash her clothes. The staff is phenomenal and they take good care of their people. When my Aunt cannot make it for breakfast, they bring her breakfast in bed. They know everyone by name. The food is great. They have activities for every hour or every hour and a half from nine o'clock in the morning until six o'clock at night and every holiday, they have a family dinner.

I visited Harbor Place for myself and it is very nice. Their staff is very good. They also have all different things that you can do and participate in. I ate there once and the food was excellent. They have nice apartments. There are a few different apartments there but I thought it is a little expensive.

This facility should get high marks for being an excellent location with good competent caregivers. The biggest complaint I have is how it treats these valuable personnel according to my uncle who is both a resident and a witness. Staff work all through night without decent food to eat or even a break. I know I wonder how competent anyone can be without eating, or working for 8 to 10 hours without a break. Accidents and poor judgement can easily be attributed to either of these disturbing trends and when you combine them it is a recipe for disaster. My uncle has seen CNA's stumble through shifts in no condition to really take care of others when they are so lacking rest and fortification themselves. It is an accident waiting to happen and a labor complaint ready to be filed! Ms DR. Martinez

The location and everything about Harbor Place made me decide to live here. I also like the general appearance and layout of the entire facility. The staff members are all helpful and they are very caring. My apartment is very spacious and comfortable. We have 3 meals a day and snacks. I enjoy playing cards with some of the residents. I'm very happy and satisfied living here.

When you forst arrive at the facility it reminds to of a hotel. It is a 4 story building with beautiful landscaping. When you walk into the assisting living building you tend you get depressed. everyone looks depressed and it smells like old people and a doctors office combined. I kind of felt bad for the people living there some of them looked so sad. The staff was nice, though some of them looked likethey didn't even care to be there. But the building is nice and taken care of on the inside and out. Though i can't really say that about the residence.

What I like about this facility is the arrangement of rooms. In addition to this, I also adore the apartment itself where my mom stays. The surrounding is very clean, it has a lovely water feature, beautiful landscape, a porch and lots of sitting areas. The staff is very friendly. They even gave me their cell-phone numbers, returned my calls and were always expecting me. I've also met with people who are members of the health team like the director, person planning the menu and others. One instance when the workers were very helpful was when I faced difficult challenges with my mother's insurance. Another thing I like in this facility is the multi-steps of care. It varies from independent, assisted, memory care and others. It has also a place where residents can stay until their remaining days so it won't be a hassle moving them to another one. Furthermore, it has a nursing service available 24/7. My mother doesn't care about the food; I think this is what they need to improve.
