Bradford Square is a friendly active community. Lots to do. Centrally located in Naples, Florida.
I was very surprised on my second visit with this establishment after my original visit with my wife was not good. Perhaps the guide did not explain all the good features properly. today, I am extremely pleased with this situation with only the food Quality in question. I am not sure itis due to the change of food that we encountered, but now it appears their is hope for improvement with a new Chef. Sat. & sun. are difficult days to assess with the past wekkends not worth commenting on.
Looks like a wonderful place to live!
My 91 mother has been living at Bradford for over a year and it’s by far the best place for her! I love that it’s all one building and they are inside to get to anything. It makes me feel like she is safe. It looks and operates like a cruise ship with a lovely dining area that serves incredible food (recently got a 5 star health rating). Their activities director goes above and beyond to make it fun and lively! Her one bedroom apartment is spacious, full kitchen and full size washer dryer. Mom was at another independent care facility before that was more expensive and didn’t provide this level of amenities.
I loved Bradford Square Retirement Community. I loved the structure of the building and the interior, and it has a much better layout of everything in the apartment than the other place. It was very nice. They have a nice walk-in closet. There was a very intelligent designer that made up the apartment, making use of every square inch. That was so nice. You walk in and you just say, "This is the one I want." The whole place is beautiful. The people are very nice. The staff introduced me to the head manager and we had a nice little talk in the office, and then she took me on a tour. It was lunchtime and she said, "I would like to have you go in and have lunch and sit with one of the residents," and I did. She told me a lot of things too. I was treated royally. The food was so good. They have waiters there all the time and they don't let the water glass go down more than halfway, and then they fill it up again. Everything was topnotch.
