I can't say enough about Water's Edge of Lake Wales. I needed respite stay for my mom so that I could address her affairs here in Florida to prepare to move her to Kentucky. Rena was great, just like talking to someone from home. She was so helpful and made the process so easy. Janay was so kind when she came to do her assessment her and my mom talked like old friends. I went in early to set up my mom's room, and Cassandra was so pleasant made me feel at ease right away. Kristy in activities came often to encourage my mom to participate and that is such a intricate part to my moms well being. Brandi was so sweet and would cut up with my mom it was great to see them banter back and forth. Violene went out of her way to see to all of my mom's needs. Stacey and Kayla's caring and compassionate manner put me at ease and I know my mom appreciated their time with her. I KNOW I haven't mentioned everyone that was instrumental in my mom's stay but everyone from the food service staff to the maintance man painting the baseboards was so nice. Everyone acknowledged my mom and would smile and say hi to my mom, walking down the hall. I visited at different times during the day and was very impressed with my moms appearance, her room and the staff eager to tell me something she did or said that was funny that even made their day. To have the staff say they don't want my mom to leave that they want "to keep her" made my heart full. Oh how I wish this facility was in Ky near me I know she would become a permanent resident. So if you are in need of a place for your loved one THIS IS THE PLACE. I know I am a nurse and was a DON of a Nursing Home, no place is perfect and no one will take care of a family member like you would but Water's Edge is pretty damn close. Thank you so much I can't tell you how much you have assisted me in this very difficult time of major change for my mom, Just a godsend.

I can’t say enough positive things about Water’s Edge. From the moment we visited, the staff made us feel welcome and cared for. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the facilities are top-notch—clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed with residents' comfort in mind. There are always engaging activities, social events, and opportunities to connect. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, warm, and enriching place to enjoy retirement!

I am sharing this review as a community partner as well as a family that has had the pleasure of experiencing the wonderful staff at Water's Edge first hand. Both of my grandparents moved to the community about a year ago, and it was such a wonderful move. Throughout the passing of my Papa at 90yrs old, and leaving behind my Nana, his wife of 75 years, the entire team offered so much comfort and support to our family and to my Nana. The wellness director is incredibly thorough and maintains an open-door policy with her families, this is not always the case in communities. Missy, the community's sales director, is top notch. She serves potential residents and their families from a place of compassion and knowledge. She will ensure that your loved one has the best quality of care possible, holding her team accountable to the services she represents in the sales process. I couldn't be happier with my Nana being a resident at this community and highly recommend this community!

My 80 year old friend describes her living situation “as good a 4 room suite at any fine hotel.” The food is excellent and you get to eat with others, or not. It’s all about being independent but with help and watchful eyes. I hope to retire to this place one day, it’s beautiful and filled with retired professionals who have really lived nice lives. The gardens are beautiful and flowers plants everywhere. The pool is warm and clean and has a lift for handicapped/wheelchair. Shopping center with Publix is literally around the corner two blocks. This place has activities, happy hour, music, library, comfy lounges, card games, fitness!! The staff is very nice, the concierge desk is well trained and watchful. Everyone seems happy, chatty and friendly. Yes I WOULD place a parent or relative here at Waters Edge. I would love to live here. It reminds me of cruising with fancy food and organized activities, or simply wandering around admiring the decor, art, library, lounges with big butter soft leather chairs. Card rooms, auditorium with various entertainment and a butterfly show! Resort living. They clean the apartments once per week, if you have a single or a couple elderly parents that you are helping care for, consider this place. It is very nice and the price (considering nearly everything is included) is less than you think. Christina L. Friend of DD.
