My family and I have had a family member here for over 10 years. Fortunately for us, almost all the staff we started with still works there. That is saying something for any business. Their activities are exceptional, their activity, director, and other workers go above the call of duty. The place is well managed, always clean and the food is delicious. We are confident when we go out of town that our loved ones will be taken care of exceptionally well. I can’t say enough for Allegro Fleming Island. My family and I are very fortunate that this facility is so accessible.

I'm a new resident, some minor staff issues to begin otherwise it would be 10 stars. However, there is one staff member that goes above beyond for everyone. Her name is Margo. she ensures we all are safe and she is so nice helping us with anything we may need and addresses our challenges as no sweat. I/ We all simplay love and appreciate her.

Went to Vist my Aunt Gladys. Beautiful set up. Nice little efficiency Apts. Clean smelling and pretty decorator. Lovely dining area . Lots of activities. One of which my aunt runs.

My mom has been at Allegro for 7 years and thoroughly loves her life there. She had an immediate sense of family upon moving in. Brenda Basham and her entire activities crew do a super job making sure there are a variety of activities to please all residents. Mom loves being busy and always is on the go. Truly a wonderful senior living community!

Beautiful community with friendly staff. they always goes above and beyond to take care of their residents needs.

I love this place for my father-in-law! Erica has been outstanding as the Administrator, addressing every concern we’ve had with care and professionalism. She does an exceptional job, and we couldn’t be more grateful for my father-in-law, Mike, to be in such a great facility.

I lived here for about a year now and I love my apartment. My friends come each week to play canasta with me in bistro. My experience with Erica, Aimee and the other members have all been positive. No where is perfect but I like it here however the food problem.

I have to say that the decision to find independent/assisted living for my dad was not a hard one. What I thought was going to be difficult was finding a suitable place with vitality, programming and caring people to become a part of my dad’s life. We looked at 3 places in Boynton and left feeling unfulfilled. THEN we found Allegro and from the time we walked in WITHOUT an appointment, we were greeted with smiles and a senior housing advisor came to meet us right away, sat down and chatted for about 20 minutes answering all our questions and then gave us a great tour! My dad and I left feeling 100% certain that this was the place! Since that day he was invited to stop by anytime, have a meal there, we exchanged contact info and ANY questions I had were answered in a timely manner and we truly felt cared about. Each and every staff person we have met since my dad joined the community was sooooo welcoming and many knew his name as we were moving in! The residents of the community are friendly and mirror the attitude of Allegro. We are all so happy. Dad is making a great transition. At every step in the process there are experienced and caring people who are top notch. I never thought it would be this easy. Thank you Allegro!

My mother has lived here for over a year now and absolutely loves it! I know many of the staff members, and they are all amazing! I can not give a higher praise to this Allegro community.

The best ALF in the area. Strongly recommend it. Valet parking, high security. Wonderful place to retire. State of the art facility.

It’s very clean here and fun activities.

My Aunt lived there for 4 years and it was such a wonderful place. She recently passed away and they were so helpful with everything I needed to get done. Such a great team there. They took such good care of my Aunt and I was so thankful 💗

Alto Senior Living exceeds all expectations! The compassionate staff, beautiful environment, and exceptional care, especially in the memory care unit, you can see how families feel truly supported. It's a warm, welcoming community where residents thrive. Highly recommend!

This facility is top notch! The staff is attentive and caring. I felt very comfortable with everyone that cared for my aunt and kept her safe during her stay.

Chris, Evan, and Scott are wonderful to work with and do a really great job of making residents feel special. Their nurse, Lauren, also deserves special recognition because she is hard-working, ethical and is always going above and beyond for her clients. The building is also just lovely.

I have toured many assisted living communities in the Bergen County area in recent months. Allegro in Harrington Park was, by far, the most attractive community I visited, and it sits in a beautiful natural setting. The residents seem very friendly, and the recreation/activity offerings are terrific. Both Chris and Evan have been extremely helpful and patient during the process of exploring Allegro as an option for my parents.

I cannot say enough good things about Allegro senior living at Harrington Park. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the entire staff goes above and beyond to make sure every resident feels like part of a big family. The care provided is exceptional. The caregivers are not only professional and highly skilled, but they are also genuinely compassionate and attentive to the individual needs of each resident. They treat everyone with dignity and respect. There are plenty of activities and social events to keep the residents engaged and active in all levels of care. It's clear that the staff here truly care about the residents’ happiness and quality of life. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their loved ones.

A very caring environment for my mom The staff is very likeable

My Dad is 88 and has been at Allegro Parkland for exactly 2 months. He did not want to be there at first, but after 2 months he is VERY HAPPY and grateful to be at Allegro Parkland. He has a super comfortable room, a lovely patio, the food at Allegro is a 10/10 (the cuisine is superb), the other residents are very nice, and the staff go above and beyond in tending to their residents. Rebecca and Debra answer all your questions and help make a smooth transition, Fernanda is the most on top of it nurse and handles everything masterfully, and all the staff from Sharon to Alfredo to Sophia to Kerrean to Vijay to Winnie to Jeny to Maria… I really am in awe at how great Allegro is and how lucky my Dad is to be there. We saw a few other facilities and I didn’t want my Dad to move at any of the other places, but when you step into Allegro Parkland you are stepping into a place you truly want to live. Thank you so much, Allegro Parkland, for being such a perfect place for my Dad. I will continue to sing Allegro Parkland’s praises. I’m telling you - this is an amazing place you would be lucky to call home.

Had a great meeting with Julie at Allegro yesterday to discuss how they can support our clients. Was very impressed with the facility, their process and, most importantly, the care that they show their residents and families. It was on display as I toured the facility, and saw how the staff, including Julie, interact with residents in a positive and caring matter. Won't hesitate to recommend Allegro to our clients and their families!

Julie is an amazing resource. We did not know where to start and she has been a soft place to land, so thankful for her.

I am in the process of researching options for my mother‘s future care. I called Allegro and made an appointment with Julie Brendle for a tour of their facility. When I arrived at Allegro, upon walking through the door, there was a welcome card posted with my name on it. Clearly they were prepared for my arrival. I was quickly introduced to Julie who has a very warm smile and sincere presence about her. We sat in a quiet room and Julie listened carefully as I relayed relevant information about our family’s process over the last few years. She asked insightful questions and truly listened to my concerns about our situation. I could write many paragraphs, relaying my positive impression of their staff and facility. I will suffice it to say that the facility is beautiful. The residents appear to be engaged in life and happy. Staff seemed present and truly concerned about the well-being of those around them. Julie gave thoughtful information that seemed to really come from the heart. I felt understood and better educated about my many options going forward. I don’t know what my mother‘s choices will be at this point, but I feel confident in Allegro should she choose to pursue dependent and or assistant living. Many thanks for the thoughtful consideration I received today.

I have been looking for a place for Mom here in St Augustine and visited Allegro. I walked in cold off the street and was provided an in depth tour with Julie Brendle. I could not have felt more welcome! She is awesome! The facility is truly lovely with everything my Mom will need or want for her future home. Everyone seemed so happy, from the employees to the residents. That speaks volumes! I'm moving Mom in next month and am feeling so good about our decision.

I moved both of my parents into Allegro at the end of 2020 (during COVID)--it's been almost four years later and when I look back it was one of the best decisions we ever made as a family. Not only is the facility clean and beautiful but every single person that works there is the best of the best...especially the nursing staff. They truly care and they truly put their heart into taking care of our loved ones. Both of my parents have stage 4 cancer along with other chronic conditions but they have thrived here because they get great care and all of their needs are met. The proximity to TGH is a blessing. Between the two of them, there are quite a few medical appointments -- but the Allegro driver takes care of transportation. There have been a few times that they needed around the clock care and/or emergency services and the team at Allegro took care of everything or made new care plans -- the communication is always outstanding and transparent. It is wonderful to know that you can trust them. I can't begin to express how thankful I am for the peace of mind they have given me. I love knowing that there is a great community of caring staff, a great group of other residents and so many activities and outings. Because of them, I get to spend precious time with my parents... instead of trying to be their caregiver. My parents love the ability to remain independent (even when receiving all the assistance) and I enjoy the peace of mind. I researched and toured every place in Tampa. Just a little advice....call the facilities you are looking at after hours and see if anyone answers. There is a huge difference with Allegro because they have a professional, knowledgeable staff...they have someone at the desk and will answer 24/7 -- they will take care of anything you need. I have been out of the country and worried about one of them, called at 2am and they sent someone to the room to give me an update. If your loved one is having an issue, they get someone to the apartment immediately and they communicate. I could go on and on...but dealing with ill and aging parents is hard -- Allegro has made the journey easier on me.

My mother has lived at Allegro for 6+ years, and absolutely loves it. What's not to like? Allegro is in an ideal location in South Tampa. Mom has the following services: her bed made and turned down daily; 3 delicious meals delivered daily; weekly cleaning and laundry. She has no stress, which I think is why she's lived to 93! And there are plenty of activities-Mom and I particularly enjoy the wine tastings! And the holiday galas. Allegro may cost a bit more, but it is absolutely the best assisted living facility in Tampa. I wouldn't want Mom to live anywhere else.

I want to give a special shout out to BREE she is a waiter in the kitchen, who waits on the residents. I have witnessed first hand how incredible she truly is. Her attitude is always great, her customer service skills are awesome she takes her job seriously and most of all treats the residents with the up most respect.

Very professional staff, I really enjoy working with them.

(8/02/24) My mother is in the AL at Allegro, and loves it. The facility seems more like a hotel than a senior living facility. The staff is so caring, and the happiness and well being of the residents is clearly their first priority. Annette, who assists my mother quite often, is so wonderful! It’s the people that make the place special. (Edit 11/19/24 - Just had to add an edit to note, once again, how marvelous is the staff at Allegro! Particularly Annette, whom my mother relies on so much, and is just SO GOOD at what she does. If you are looking for an IL/AL facility that truly cares about their residents, I urge you to check out Allegro.)

Great place to live. The staff is very helpful and very nice which makes a friendly and warm environment.

I started attending an Alzheimer Support Group hosted by Allegro. The environment is always beautifully maintained, clean, fresh and inviting. The staff welcomes one with a smile and encouragement. I do not have someone living here, but when I am there residents are doing activities and are smiling. They also have Parkinsons Groups as well. Each occur monthly. They don't just offer the facility for meetings, they are there to listen and learn from caretakers. Rebecca also offers up beverages, fruit and deserts. It is a caring and compassionate feeling I get when I go. Should I need senior living care, I would give them look. I have been told they have not been sited with deficiencies in the past 3 years! Great job!

The folks at Allegro are awesome. Our mom is 102 yrs old and has lived with us for over 25 years. few months she developed a UTI. We had no idea what or how o take care of her. A friend recommended Allegro.. We meet with folks and immodestly moved Mom into Allegro. They take such good care of Mom....it is just wonderful to have found a place and community like what we have found at Allegro. Thanks to all the kind caring folks at Allegro!!!!

Before we finalized the decision to move my father here, I looked at many local options. None of them matched the light and airy feel, the fresh smells and casual elegance of Allegro. Allegro is a beautiful place. It looks like a cruise ship. The amenities are second to none. The restaurant is open 7am-7pm and makes each dish to order from a menu that changes daily. The staff knows each resident and are well-trained, receptive and kind. The place is clean. My father is safe here. He really likes the food and is often sitting in one of the lounges reading the newspaper or chatting with other residents. There is a library and a theatre, garage parking, patios and decks and even a little park adjacent to the building. the grounds are clean and landscaped. The rooms have high ceilings and large windows. AND it is competitively priced. I am here to see him almost everyday.

Allegro Richmond Heights is a marvelous place to live for a variety of reasons. This facility provides just about everything I need on an ongoing basis including three very good meals a day, housekeeping services, maintenance, medicine distribution, and many outings and activities. In addition, the facility takes residents to medical appointments when requested. The employees at Allegro are always ready to help the residents. Whether it is the Care Staff, the Med. Techs, the kitchen/dining room cooks and servers, the housekeepers, or maintenance personnel, Front Desk Receptionists, or the Management Team, the courteous and responsive staff is always willing to do their best to assist and care for the residents. There is also a plan to enhance effective communication between employees and residents. This strong effort features regular meetings at which residents are given the opportunity to suggest changes and offer compliments. These meetings are conducted using both formal and informal formats. Allegro is maintained beautifully and provides every resident a wonderful environment to really enjoy and appreciate a superb as well as meaningful life.

Around 2 years away from this place. But awesome team at Allegro. It was definitely an amazing experience. Love all you guys!

First 2 weeks in an so far, so good. There are kinks and schedules to work out, but Laura K. Laurie, Kim are always ready to help out. Special shout out to Adrienne, Kae and the dining staff for great service and kindness to my parents.

Hi everybody, I have been in Allegro since March 2023 not quite a year yet but I am very happy here. In fact today we had a birthday celebration of everybody that had a January or February birthday, which included me and it was awesome. The service was great. The food was wonderful. Everybody did something to make us all have a wonderful day. I really appreciate those extra efforts that they make here at Allegro and it’s not just one employee. It’s all of them.

My grandmother lived at Allegro for 15 years, and this place had such a positive impact on her life. The activity programming facilitated so many ways for her to get to know other residents and lead a great social life for not only herself but for the entire resident community. The staff has always been so supportive of my family , and I have countless memories of holiday brunches and parties enjoyed there. As a young child, going to Allegro was always something I really looked forward to not just because I loved spending time with my grandmother and her friends, but because I loved the events and activities and getting to know the friendly staff. Thank you Allegro for all you do for families!

I wanted to share some thing about this community and I absolutely love it. I spoke to all the residents here and they love the food, the atmosphere and everything about this absolutely breathtaking & lovely community. Laurie Jordan does such a phenomenal job running this community. If you’re looking for a senior living community, this is the place that I would pick. Tallahassee charm. Don’t miss out on this amazing experience at the Allegro.

I love the Allegro brand! I have been to a handful of them in Central Florida and surrounding areas. Smiles are big, hearts are kind and the care is compassionate. A definite must see if you are looking to level up and live a “resort” lifestyle. They even have a pool :)!

Very beautiful facility. Staff is extremely attentive and considerate. Michele was informative, helpful, and a reassuring person to consult with regarding these type of life decisions.

We have had great care for our clients that we have referred to Allegro. The staff care about their residents and make everyone feel like family.

My mom has been in the Ensemble memory care community at Allegro for almost two years. While no one wants to get an Alzheimer's diagnosis for their parent, much less the news that they need to transition that parent to memory care, we have been so happy with Allegro and the care and support the community has provided for my mom. The team at Allegro really goes above and beyond to provide enriching and fun activities for the residents to help them live the fullest lives possible. There is genuine kindness and caring from the staff as they help the residents take care of their personal and medical needs. And the team supports families through a very difficult period with regular family nights/ programming and including interested families into the activities alongside the residents. We consider the team at Allegro to be like a second family and are grateful for the care they provide for my mom.

My aunt has joined the Ensemble unit and she and we, her family, are so happy!! The staff is so caring and helpful. When we walk through the door, it feels like family! So grateful for Julie!!!

Our Aunt lived at Alto in both the Assisted Living and Memory Care units. Julie, activity director for Memory Care, is so great! Lots of interaction, activities and celebrations. My aunts dog was also welcome on the floor to visit and say hello to all residents. He loved to visit, meet new friends and still be a big part of her life. Mike, activity director for Assisted Living is wonderful also! Our family attended most of the family nights and they were so fun, Oktoberfest especially! Many thanks also to the women running the front desk, the nurses, Chef Dave and Elizabeth in the kitchen too!

I can’t express how amazing this facility is. I looked at ten places before finding this community for my mother. She started in assisted living but we knew eventually she would need memory care. The staff is outstanding. They treat my mom as family and is extremely caring. The food is great. The nursing staff is truly the best. They have activities all day and they will encourage all to be involved. My mom was shy and they helped her make friends. This facility is very personal. I was at ease knowing my mom is safe, being well cared for and having fun. Thank you!

If I could give 10 stars,I would!! The staff are fantastic! I have a relative at Alto. The facility is beautiful. The staff are ALL very engaging, and attentive, from the top on!! Shout out to Elizabeth, Alexis (Amazing!!), Diann, Gette, Sydney, Mike, Cynthia, Jacqueline, Jeffrey, Chris, And so so so many others!! Every single member has been super, and that includes Chef and cleaning staff toooo!! Thank you for everything, you’ve ALL made my brother’s transition very smooth. ❤️

I love Alto Overland Park! Beautiful surroundings and beautiful people. Activities Director has a real pulse on what the residents enjoy and has additionally fosyered a group bond that is very enjoyable to be around! I feel blessed to be involved.

We have enjoyed and continue to look forward every month to the joy of performing for those wonderful residents at Alto Overland Park. We love to see (and hear) the residents sing along to our music. We so much appreciate the help and support we receive from the staff - it's like visiting family. Can't wait till our next monthly visit.

Great building great management out working team staff

From the moment you enter the lobby you can feel the warmth of a home. Beautiful music plays and the fireplace beckons you to come and sit for a while. That’s just the beginning of how you’ll feel here, just wait until you meet the caring staff who are constantly collaborating on the events and adventures you’ll experience here!

We placed my Dad in Alto Stuart the beginning of April 2024 and we have been so please with the facility. The staff is so kind and caring. The are very attentive. If he does not go down for a meal someone comes up to check on him. They are constantly checking in on him and that gives us piece of mind. They go out of their way to make it like home. We are so happy we choose Alto.

Our experience with Alto Stuart had been overall wonderful. Kaitlyn Oteri, the Executive Director and Elizabeth Olsen, Head of Nursing in particular have been so very supportive and attentive to our sister’s mental, physical, medical needs and working with us with complicated financial restrictions. They have gone above and beyond on working with our family to get the best and most tailored care for our sister. We feel there genuine caring and interest in making this the best experience for our sister. Also, kudos to Araceli at reception for her warm and welcoming first impression as we enter Alto Stuart. Finally, Lorraine’s steadfast social interaction planning keeps the community alive and engaged. Thank you for everyone at Alto Stuart for making this difficult transition in life hopeful and yes, even joyful.

From the moment we toured Alto Stuart, we felt comfortable and at home. The facility itself is updated, stylish, clean and radiates warmth. The entire staff - housekeepers, dining staff, aides, nurses, facilities staff, and administration - was helpful, warm, caring, and attentive. Any questions or concerns we had were immediately addressed. In the initial days of moving in, Alto staff helped my family member find dining mates that cultivated new friendships. The food was diverse and tasty -- and the activities were plenty. I only wish we hadn't waited as long we did for my family member to move in.

Such a beautiful community in a great location. I love visiting here. The staff are all very friendly, and the onsite therapy team are wonderful.

I come to play games here every week :) the residents are happy and the facilities are beautiful. The staff are simply the best!

I truly don’t know where my sisters and I would be without the excellent care at Alto. Our mom has been there for seven years, and even through covid, Alto did a phenomenal job of caring for her! My sisters and I often marvel at how incredibly kind and caring the aids are. The nurses are fabulous, the activities directors are incredible and even the front desk and administrative staff is just wonderful! We are so grateful for Alto!

Things run fairly well when staffing levels correct.

Alto-Osprey Tavares Florida provides a lovely place to live; but we know that no matter where a person resides, true happiness and satisfaction comes from the inside. We all have to find our own "happy spot"; but Alto management and staff do all they can by giving excellent care, planned activities, entertainment, and meals to each one. Thank you!

We are amazed in how much EVERYONE has done to help my mom during her adjustment period. Everyone has gone above and beyond in making it a smooth and reassuring transition. We couldn’t ask for more. From the best of meals, to the best of activities, to the best of the staff engaging with the residents it has been incredible!!! When I say the staff engages with the residents it literally means everyone. They really care for and about the residents. It’s so heartwarming to see so many residents happy and smiling and enjoying themselves.

I am so much more at ease knowing she is there!!! My mother was living in a different ALF, wish I could say which one so others would avoid the horrible experience! AI finally decided to move her to Alto, thank God I did!!! She is happier than I have seen her in a long time. The staff checks on her throughout the day and night , everything she needs is there from doctors to hairdressers. The daily schedule could be compared to that of a cruise ship! If you have to make the decision for a parent or a loved one, choose Alto you will not be disappointed!

Not enough words to express the peace of mind our family had while our mother resided at The Osprey Lodge (Alto) for over 3 years. Outstanding caring staff, cleanliness, food service, activities, etc.. Thank you All!

We love working with the team at the Alto! Mahi and Casandra are two of the best people in the business and I would trust them with the care of my loved ones any day. They have a beautiful community, happy staff members, and very fun activities.

I had another visit to see Diane and we had a great time. The staff were very accommodating and helpful without being intrusive. Wish I was there full time.

By far the best staff and residence around. Was in simsbury previously and was unhappy. Moved closer to family and moved to Harbour Chase now Alto at evergreen walk. My father has since passed and I miss the people and staff of Alto Evergreen Walk.

Great workers, Great hospitality, fun activities for residents.

My mother moved up from Long Island NY into Alto Senior Living just over 1 month ago to be closer to her family in South Windsor. She absolutely LOVES everything about this community! Her apartment has exactly what she needs. Its a new community, only a few years old. The apartments are well lit, safe and very spacious and also have amenities included, including laundry, housekeeping,maintenance, cable, internet. All the meals are prepared fresh in the restaurant and are delicious! We often have meals together here and the menu is so diverse and made to order. Daily specials and a great kitchen and dining staff. Our teenage kids love visiting grandma and getting to eat at the restaurants here too. The options for activities here are endless. From art sessions to daily happy hours and fire pits, to movies and cards, and can't forget about bus trips to events around Connecticut, mom is more busy now than she has been in a long while. The in house salon is exactly what she was looking for to get her hair and nails done whenever she desires. She calls her new home "Bougie sleep away camp for seniors." She has connected with and made many new friends in just the short time she has been a resident here. I can't leave out the amazing nursing care and assistance that is given to mom at Alto. She gets all the attention she requires for her daily needs from a dedicated and caring and knowledgeable nursing staff that assists her with all of her medications and really listens to her needs and concerns....plus any help is always a button push away.The physical therapy/occupational therapy department has to be commended for their incredible work as well. We looked at several local assisted living communities and the choice was easy once we found Alto.

My dad moved into Alto Johns Creek over the summer. As a geriatric care manager and PT, I knew it was the right move for him, but as a daughter it was still a very stressful decision. The caring staff at Alto made the transition for all of us a breeze. I never doubted that he would be safe and well cared for. He has continued to thrive and is enjoying his best life at Alto.

Alto Johns Creek is a beautifully designed community with warm and welcoming staff!

We have been with this facility since it opened and my mom has flourished in the memory care. The facility is beautiful and even though there has been change in management I am optimistic that my mom will continue to receive quality care

Brand new and absolutely beautiful community. All the staff are wonderful.... Would highly recommend for anyone looking for assisted living or memory care for their loved one.

Just had Easter brunch there today with my Dad Terry and it was wonderful. What a beautiful presentation the food was excellent and a wonderful staff to make it a super experience. My Dad is very happy with Allegro it was definitely the best choice. Thank you

We moved to Allegro Fort Lauderdale 5 months ago and we are delighted. This is a very upscale community in a great location. The number of activities is awesome. The meals provided are excellent especially the soups that are better than in a cruise ship. We have a 2 bedroom 2 baths apartment which is very comfortable.
