My father in law has been a resident at the Villas for over two years. During the past two years the amazing staff have embraced him like one of their own which as you can imagine takes tremendous amount of anxiety off a family. For a resident who is going to be 96 you can only imagine the comfort that he feels from all of the attention that he is receiving. Over the past two years he had a number of health and wound issues nonrelated to the facility that have required a significant amount of attention by the nursing team. This has been addressed not only timely but by constant updates to the family on the status of his wound care and health status on a regular basis, sometimes daily, sometimes weekly. The wound program led by Joy has been amazing, attentive and proactive in facilitating wound healing. The wound program includes daily monitoring, treatment, weekly wound rounds with a Nurse Practitioner, and nutritional assessment with the Registered Dietician. What a relief for him not to have to leave the facility for any additional treatment. The entire Nursing Team including Laquasia, Joy, Sue, Becka, and others treat him like their own family member. The nursing team are continuously monitoring him and are accessible and responsive to any questions or concerns we as a family have. My father-in-law is not an overly social person however the activity team led by Kristin get him up and engaged and “smiling” which is by no means an easy feat. The Villas does an amazing job with their big events including a Luau last month complete with a “hula dancer” and this month Octoberfest for the residents and families which included arts and crafts, petting zoo and face painting which was enjoyed by all. My father in law is not the easiest however he goes into the dining room and the dining staff immediately meet his nutritional requests with constant attention. Overall, as a family we feel that we have made the right choice in choosing The Villas as a home for our family member and couldn’t be happier.

We placed my grandpa here towards the end of his life; we honestly believe it was thanks to The Villas and its staff that we had him for another two years. He was a grumpy man but never once said he was unhappy there. And if he was happy we were very happy.

The Villas of Manalapan was very nice. It was top-notch. They have everything there. They have a lot of things that you don't even have to leave the premises. The doctor there, they do your blood work. But, you're talking about a sum going to almost $8,000 a month. They have every bell and whistle. It is a little newer, so we're talking about crystal chandeliers and marble floors, and that one was beautiful. The independent living was nice. It was like, you're in your own apartment. We didn't see the memory care because that was on the third floor, but the assisted living, apartments were beautiful. They do your laundry, they clean your room, and the kitchen comes with a refrigerator. One of them came with a heating element, and it came with a microwave. But you don't need it, because, in the dining room, they have something that's called grab and go that you can go into the dining room and get food 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And then on every single floor, there's what they call a country kitchen, it is a large kitchen that is equipped with everything: a microwave, a coffee maker, a large refrigerator. It had food in there. It had a huge, huge table that could fit 10 to 12 people. So you come with your family and you don't want to sit in your apartment because it's small, you could have a little birthday party there. You could order food and sit there. Every floor had a living room and it had games like Air hockey, and games that if you came with your grandkids, or if you wanted you just played with a resident. It had a library, and a theater like you were going to the real movies. It had a gym, it had a salon, and it had happy hour every day at 4:00 pm and real alcohol. And you got wine with your meals, you were allowed one drink and had entertainment. If you could afford it, that's a nice place to live.

The Villas is fairly new. I think it's under five years. It's immaculate. It has a beautiful setting. It's a beautiful facility. It has every amenity you can probably think of. But it comes down to the individual. Like my mom is 92, so how much of that is she going to be able to utilize? It's great for somebody that might be a little bit younger than her that needs assisted living and that can get around because there are multiple areas of entertainment and that kind of thing. There's a spa and everything. It's a beautiful place. It has all that. However, I didn't get that warm, fuzzy feeling as I did over at the other place. The one unit that we looked at had a small college-sized fridge, and then the other one had a full-sized refrigerator and a two-burner stove, but I think you could only use it with certain types of pots or something. The rooms are immaculate there. Everything is beautiful. The setting is beautiful. The staff was great. However, I don't think she was as warm or as endearing as the others. She gave me a great tour. She answered all my questions. She was very thorough, very explicit, and very forthcoming with all the information. But I don't think she was as endearing as the staff from the other place.

We toured The Villas and the place was gorgeous, it's beautiful. They only had one available apartment and it was very tiny, that's the reason we didn't go with them. The staff who gave the tour was wonderful, she was very nice and took us to look at a couple of different apartments. One of the ones she showed us wasn't available, so I didn't understand why she showed it to us because we weren't going to be able to rent it anyway. Everything there was immaculate, but it wasn't going to fit our needs. One of the things we were impressed with is that they have an on-site clinic, and a doctor comes in. That would have been ideal, and that was one thing that I liked. They provided meals, they had a library, a gym, and a pool.

The Villas was very nice. It's a recent build, so it's beautiful. The amenities were lovely. It was a very nice experience. It was very small. We were told that they had availability, but when we went there, they had this one teeny 500 square foot unit available. The other units were very nice, but very tight as well. They had a couple of outside units with outside access and it felt like zero security. Their only security was, "You're supposed to go to the front desk," and that's not security. It had an external door, so if they left it unlocked, anybody could walk in on your loved ones. Especially my grandmother, who is in the beginning stages of dementia, it felt very unsafe with that type of access. Otherwise, it was very nice. The woman we spoke to was very nice. You had to take a COVID test when you got in, so it felt like they had very good protocols, but it wasn't a good fit. The dining area was very nice and wide open, so it very much felt like a huge restaurant. It didn't really have that cozy feel, but it was a nice area.

We toured The Villas, and it was a pleasant enough place. However, the people that we encountered were quite a lot sicker and more disabled than we are, and it just didn't have much of a very cheery atmosphere. I'm not saying that it was an inferior facility in any way. It just wasn't what we were looking for. The person who took us on the tour was very informative, pleasant, and friendly. I don't think we met anybody else except maybe the person behind the desk. We didn't talk to any of the professional staff at all. We just kind of walked around for an hour or so and got a generalized look at the place. They had movies and some card games and probably some lectures, but I wasn't engaged enough to pay very close attention to them. It looked perfectly acceptable. Certainly clean, well-maintained, and attractive.

The Villas was really a beautiful place. It's new, so it's not dated at all. The place was spotless. Everything's very fresh, clean, and shiny. The rooms were beautiful, and all the amenities were gorgeous. The outdoor areas were beautiful too. They had a great looking dining room and a movie studio. Cindy was great. I've been in contact with her since, and she's been very helpful. They're willing to work with me with the prices. Their food is amazing, and they said they cook everything fresh. They don't do any frozen or processed foods. They also don't have a meal plan. She said they individualize it for each resident with the help of the dietician for the optimum health of the resident; that's what I'm hoping for.

My aunt will be moving into The Villas, and I like the setup of it and the new construction. It was very fresh and new. Everything wasn't old and outdated, and I love the decor of it. Mike and Cindy were both wonderful and very helpful. They answered all my questions. They were great. Mike and Cindy were the two people whom I went with to see it, and then I took my aunt. She loved it. They have a movie theater, a beauty salon, and they have a library. They have a lot of different open, quiet sitting spaces, or community space for everyone to enjoy. They have a happy hour every day. They will do trips when everything opens back up. They have beautiful grounds and amenities; the grounds are beautiful. The set up was nice. We saw where they serve the meals, and they have a chef there. They don't do a lot of farm-to-table food.

The Villas was very, very nice. They're only beginning to get residents because they opened right before Covid. They had to shut down again. Right now, there are 25 residents there. They hold a maximum of 95 residential apartments. It was very nice, but right now it's very quiet. It's very clean and very quiet. They have not had Covid issues at all. It's one building that has two wings, and I think it was 3 floors. There was a floor below ground level that had the activity room and things like that. They have different floors. One floor was assisted living and another floor was independent living. We didn't try the food, but they gave us a box of cookies which were very good. The staff was very nice and very pleasant too. They were very accommodating. They had a game room where they played cards, Scrabble, and Monopoly. They had a little stage where they do entertainment. They haven't had that a lot though because of the virus. They had a bar downstairs where they do a happy hour every night or every afternoon.

My mother is a resident of The Villas and I have only good things to say about it. Every time I see my mother see complains to me that the food is so good, I'm getting fat and need to go on a diet, and my mom is thin, with a big smile. I love that complaint since it's actually a compliment. The place is only a few months old and it is beautiful, the people who work there really care about the residents, they take good care of my Mom and are always giving me updates. Since Covid19 everything has changed, but, I know my Mom is safe and in a good place. Yes, they are and have been on lockdown, no one goes in or out and although I miss my Mom I'm so happy they put this in place before they needed to do it. She is in a place where she still can go out of the room and see other residents since they have all been in lockdown together and she is safe. We Facetime with her every week and get to see her thru a glass door once a week, it's not as good as in-person but we get to see her. I would highly recommend The Villas if you are looking for Assisted Living or Independent living.

My mom has been living at The Villas since October 2019. She was very reluctant to move to such a place but, the moment we walked in she fell in love! Not only is it new but also beautiful!! She feels as if she’s living in a 5 star hotel. I, of course, was concerned about her care and the staff. We have found that both are on a level far exceeding expectations. The staff is loving and kind always having a smile and kind word for everyone. The quality of care is first rate and even in these very hard times has proven to be wonderful. Our entire family is delighted that we have chosen the Villas as my moms home.

The facilities are without question "Five Star". Our Mom was one of the early residents in this brand new facility with which no expense was spared. The food and amenities with Movie center, work out room, library, salon, etc. are all outstanding. But above all else, the staff at The Villas is exceptional! Caring, responsive, and loving to residents and their families alike. To say my family an I have great piece of mind knowing our Mom is at The Villas, with the most wonderful people caring for her, is an understatement. Top Shelf!
