Both my brother and I love Gwynned Estates! My 90 year old parents have lived here for 2 years. The staff is so caring and kind and professional. The grounds and building are lovely and well kept. My parents started in independent living and recently moved to memory care, and they are thriving. If either of them needs to move to nursing care in the future, that is also available, and the price doesn't change - it is the same as when they were in independent living. Very warm atmosphere and everyone is helpful and smiles and says hello. They have been extremely thorough with keeping the residents safe and tested weekly during the pandemic. I have lived with them in their apartment twice for a week at a time (they are miles from me, my brother lives 20 min away), so I have had lots of interaction with residents and staff. We interviewed many places before finding Gwynedd for them. 100% recommend. A+++ Star!

We were visiting somebody at Gwynedd Estates and we went to her apartment; it was very nice. This lady was more independent, like she drove, and it was more like a one-bedroom apartment. She brought her own furniture, and she had a little sliding door to go outside if she wanted to. What I saw was very nice, she's very comfortable there, she enjoys it.

Gwynedd Estates was very well-run and nice. Everybody was hospitable, but it is a CCRC, and the entrance fee is not refundable. The units were also rather small, so I wasn't interested.

Gwynedd Estates is very nice, and I am very impressed with what they do. The rooms come in all sizes. I know a wealthy couple who bought two units and put them together, and it is very impressive. I also saw a smaller room which I myself could not live in. I like the fact that you can get what you want depending on your ability to pay. The staff is very good and helpful, and they care about the people. The guard at the front gate is always friendly and nice. Whenever I go there to visit, I do not see a lot of interaction among the residents. The residents there tend to isolate themselves. I was able to try the food at the bistro, and it was fine.

The whole atmosphere at Gwynedd Estates was nice. The staff was friendly and seemed competent. The apartments were a little small, but they're nice. I had lunch, and it was fine. There were a lot of activities.

Gwynedd Estates is close to my home. It's very clean, the staff seems very attentive, and it's really affordable. They also offer activities for the residents, provide transportation to the mall or the grocery store, and they even have a doctor on site and a bank on site.

My grandparents lived at Gwynedd Estates for almost 20 years, and considered it one of the greatest decisions they ever made. The staff is not only friendly and professional, but took an earnest interest in their lives and well being. In my grandfather's final weeks, they could not have been more caring and helpful. Towards the end of his life, we literally saw them as fellow family members and will never forget the incredible job they did to make my grandfather's last days so comfortable. The on-site hospice staff spared nothing in their care for him, and when he passed they continued to support our family through our period of grief. At the funeral for both my grandparents, members of the facility came to pay their respects. When it is time for my wife and I to find a comfortable place to retire, we will no doubt do everything in our power to move in to Gwynedd.

My grandparents have both lived at Gwynedd Estates in Ambler Pennsylvania for over ten years. It is a beautiful, sprawling campus with large apartments each containing two to three bedrooms, a full kitchen, and two full bathrooms. The buildings are kept immaculately clean and the facility is sound proof so that residents can always enjoy a peaceful, quiet time. The facility's staff are consummate professionals and they take the time to not only get to know each resident on a personal level, but they also take the time to become friendly with their loved ones and friends. The dining hall looks like a five star restaurant and the food is amazing. The facility enjoys a close relationship with the neighborhood medical facilities and hospitals. Residents may access free transportation to these facilities at any time, plus there is a very capable medical team on site 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. I hope to have the opportunity of living at a place like Gwynedd Estates when it is my time to retire.

What a beautiful facility inside and out; this sits on acres of lovely landscapes which offer trails, and just simply lovely views! Once inside there is a nice warm feel of community which is so important. There is a huge range of activities which I was lucky enough be be witness to...on the inside you can find anything from computer rooms to art rooms, and in good weather there are even a good game of horseshoes to partake in. There is a homey feel to this community, and an admistrative staff dedicated to make sure people feel this is truely their home. There is plenty of friendly, caring interplay between staff and residents. I was very impressed upon my leaving the facility on late evening....to find a staff member sitting with a resident on the porch simply sipping a drink together. As I engaged in a short conversation, I realized this was after hours, and simply a nice, human gesture from this worker. Lovely facility, professional and nice staff. A wonderful choice for those in seach of a top notch community. I would highly recommend!
