As someone who has spent a great deal of time in assisted living and memory care communities—both professionally and personally—I can honestly say that The Cottages at Belleair has some of the happiest residents I have ever encountered. One of the things that makes this community so special is the incredible opportunity residents have to spend time outdoors on their beautiful, fenced campus. I truly believe there is something incredibly beneficial about being outside. Whether it's the positive effects on our nervous system, blood pressure, or simply our overall emotional well-being, I know I always feel better when I'm able to feel the breeze, listen to the birds, and take in the blue sky and trees. The residents at The Cottages enjoy that experience every day in a way that is unlike any other community I've visited, and I believe it has a meaningful impact on their happiness and quality of life. The staff I've worked with have been wonderful. The level of compassion, patience, and genuine care is evident the moment you walk through the doors. Jawanda and Crystal are absolute rockstars. Their hearts are fully invested in the residents, and it shows in every interaction. They create an environment where residents are treated with dignity, warmth, and respect, and where families can have confidence knowing their loved ones are truly cared for. The Cottages at Belleair is a truly special place, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a memory care community where residents can thrive.

This is a memory care facility.

The Cottages is a well-run memory care community with a strong, compassionate team. Their commitment to dignity, safety, and resident-centered care is clear. Abby Farmer, Admissions Director, is professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Families are well supported throughout the process, and the community reflects a thoughtful approach to memory care.

Easy to get to place. Friendly and informative staff. Very secure areas for residents. Area we walked in looked and smelled clean. Residents looked happy and were friendly. Each had own private room. Lovely , clean garden areas for residents, looked inviting. Didn't pay a price to visit .

The Cottages At Belleair is a cute assisted living community. I enjoyed my tour with Abbie. The 7 cottages are updated and each has a well-shaded front porch area to enjoy sitting outdoors where the grounds are quiet, filled with beautiful oak trees and well-maintained. If you are looking for bedrooms with shared common areas this is the place to be. When I told Abbie my mother would need rehab first, she even recommended a couple of nice nearby rehab centers for mom.

Cottages at Belleair does a great job of welcoming its new residents and providing a warm, friendly environment for them and the families/friends that come to visit. You can tell the staff cares about everyone, and that does make a difference in the care and comfort they provide. Our family appreciates you all at Cottages - Keep up the good work!
