Community Reviews
Thrilled to be There
reviewed on: 12/09/2013 by DaughterMy mom is totally pleased, thrilled to be there. Excellent establishment. Lots for her to do. The building is beautiful and it is in a beautiful community. There is a lot there besides just her building and she has access to the other things. It's a huge complex, everything from independent living to skilled nursing, and the doctors are there too. She is in the assisted living, and she is in better health now than she was when she was admitted. The view from her room is awesome. Everyone is very friendly! The staff and residents love being there. I would highly recommend this place. It's part of Shell Point. If someone is looking in Southern Fort Myers in FL they should check out the Shell Point. There are several other places, but besides The Springs they all have a lengthy waiting list.

reviewed on: 03/24/2014 by AnonymousIdeal as far as assisted living goes. We visited just as an Irish dancing group was about to do an onsite concert. The front patio was FULL! Rooms, lobbies, grounds and hallways were impecably appointed. All staff and residents were very pleasant and accomodating. Floorplans were decent, although I am learning that all asst. living is smaller than you expect. A large number of special activites spaces including a pation and pool, picnic/grill area, craft room, media room, cards and games room, etc... Very encouraging to see the level of activities!
Anytime Dining
reviewed on: 12/11/2013 by Son-In-LawIt is good value for the money. I think that the big thing is the anytime dining and the friendliness. Everyone was very cordial. The exercise program is what my in-laws have really gotten into as far as the activities go, but it seems like there are quite a few available. If you want transportation, it is excellent. Anything on campus or on site is free. If you have to go to an offsite to a doctor or something that is a couple dollars.
The Springs--Clean, Friendly and Affordable, too.
reviewed on: 03/11/2015 by ElysiaMom is a professional complainer :-) but The Springs has been fabulous working with her and us to insure her safety and well-being!
Average
reviewed on: 12/06/2013 by FriendIt was nice, but it didn't compare to Calusa Harbour. I don't really remember anything specific about it; it was totally average.
