I'm at Royal Palms. The staff is excellent. The food is very, very good. The apartments are extremely nice. There's nothing here that I don't like. There's lots of entertainment, lots of games, and lots of activities for the elderly. There's transportation if you need it. I don't need it because I still have my own car, but it's nice to know that it's available. The rooms are cleaned weekly, and they do a very good job of mopping and cleaning.

I'm at Royal Palms. The staff is excellent. The food is very, very good. The apartments are extremely nice. There's nothing here that I don't like. There's lots of entertainment, lots of games, and lots of activities for the elderly. There's transportation if you need it. I don't need it because I still have my own car, but it's nice to know that it's available. The rooms are cleaned weekly, and they do a very good job of mopping and cleaning. They do a very good job of maintenance. They offer all kinds of card games. They have an activities director. I don't take part in all of them because I play a lot of canasta. But they have dancing exercises, and they have an exercise room where you can ride bikes if you want to exercise on your own. They have all kinds of things for holidays and parties. Every holiday is recognized. For the money, I'm getting very good value. I like everything about this place. I have a little dog, and I requested a ground floor, which I have. I can walk my dog out the front door, I can walk him to go out the halls and walk in the back. I can walk him myself, but if I get disabled, there are dog walkers that I can hire to take him out, too, so I know that he'll be taken care of. This place has an excellent variety of food. The food is tasty, and you do not have to wait. On holidays, some people have their families, and they can make reservations. I can go at 4:00 and get my dinner, which is an early dinner, which I like.
We (my mother, aunt & I) moved in recently and just LOVE it. The staff are friendly and caring. The residents are friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing. There are tons of activities to do and tons of amenities. After 37 years of owning a home, it’s great to be able to call and report any issues to maintenance and they’ll take care of the repairs.

I have worked here for almost 7 years and to me this is my second family. The residents are amazing as well as the staff. There is always something going on. I wouldn't want to work anywhere else.
I went to Royal Palms a couple of times. I looked at some rooms that they had available and apartments. They're wonderful. I never saw happier people in my life. All the people there seemed extremely happy. They had great staff. Everybody knows each other. It's like a family. It's a very lovely environment. I've heard really good remarks about the food. Somebody said they make the best hamburger ever and the menu looked great. They've got two choices, even at dinnertime, which seems very nice. They're all friendly and amazing. The staff was awesome, so friendly, and just over the top. When you walk in the front door, it reminds you of one of the finest cruise ships you've ever been on and it's immaculate. It's beautiful. The entrance is gorgeous and all the rooms are appointed and taken care of very well. They put nice floors in and brand new carpet. It's very lovely. I couldn't find a bad thing to say about them.
I went to Royal Palms. I would not recommend it to anybody. It was way more expensive than the other facility. They would throw you out if you can't pay your rent because it's a rental. It was very shabby, and I didn't like it. As soon as I walked in, I wanted to leave. The apartments are very small and not modernized. Nothing was modernized. I didn't tour the whole place because I was so turned off by it. I did see parts of the place. I saw an apartment, and the hallways had stains on the rugs. The elevators were old and just really dilapidated. I did not want to live there. They need to improve everything.
My mother stayed at Royal Palms. She loved it. It's a beautiful building, and it's well-maintained. The staff was wonderful, very good, very friendly, and very helpful. She always raved about how good the food was. They had cards and little parties. They did a lot of things prior to COVID, but it's all been halted. They had beautiful flowers and beautiful fountains, and it's all well-maintained. The value for the money was good.
The Royal Palms in Largo was beautiful and it was very nice. They had screened balconies, they had a nice pool, and it was also very, very big. It's very attractive, it looked very clean and very well-kept. The staff, Kimberly, who showed me around was excellent. The dining area was very nice. They have a speaker in everyone's room for when it's time for you to go down to dinner which I did not like. Because there are so many people there, they have to stagger their meals all the time to get the right number of people to the dining area. Once you get a big facility like that, you're going to need to do that. I didn't really like it. I remember that the place was in a really nice area though.
