My grandfather lives here and we couldn’t be happier with the facility! I love going to have lunch with him ❤️

I have nothing but great things to say about the Colonnade of Northdale. I have been in many buildings in my profession and the team of people in this building are OUTSTANDING! The empathy, care, compassion is something I truly appreciate as I have a mother in memory care elsewhere. I often think if I had the opportunity to move my mom to Florida - Colonnade of Northdale Memory Care would be her new home. She would be safe and cared for as she deserves with a team/ family around her. 🤗

Gorgeous Community and Great Team!

Attentive, caring and knowledgeable staff - all of them. Caregiver to patient ratio is excellent. Experienced specialized therapy available. Colonnade Northdale staff excels at open communication with compassion and understanding, particularly in the face of difficult decision making. Grateful our Mom is “home” with such wonderful care.

What an incredible experience I had with the Sales Team and Executive Director at a true hour of need. Michelle, Alberta and Lisa made the transition from one ALF to the Colonnade @ Northdale seamless. My parent loves being at The Colonnade. All the staff have made him feel more than welcomed, they have made him feel at home, as if he has been there forever. Liz and Sonja have been wonderful. There are more staff to recognize, but not enough time. Suffice to say, your loved one will be well cared for at The Colonnade @ Northdale. Thank you everyone.

Everyone was welcoming except one person at the front desk "N" She looked like she was sucking on lemons and was very unhelpful. Someone should give her some PR lessons or at least not put her at the front desk.

Very clean, no odor. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place!!

I recall visiting this place several years ago with both my folks and it was my memorable. Fast forward a few years later and it was the best choice ever. The facility as a whole is very family oriented and they care deeply about the residents, family members, and work together as a team. They literally go above and beyond in various circumstances and learn each resident well with clear communication across the board. Unlike previous communities, the one thing that strikes me the most with this community is the access to the executive director-Lisa Marie. She is a text away for questions, concerns, comments, compliments, complaints, or anything. My mother has been in memory care for over a year and she had adjusted well with the amazing supportive encouraging staff who have learned my mom well and left me in comforting, supportive ways. The recent renovation in memory care makes it feel very modern and a touch of class. Thank you for the super experience and supportive and safe environment!
