My brothers and I have been very impressed with The Beacon for our 91 year old dad. It is a beautiful facility with excellent care. He requires hospice care now, and everyone has been gracious and supportive and kind with my father and our whole family. We are beyond grateful.

Review for The Beacon at Gulf Breeze
I gave my neighbor the information I received from A Place for Mom and he was able to quickly get his mother entered into The Beacon. Another friend who had been sitting with [name removed] before her move, and I visited with her once she was settled. We were delighted with the lovely facility and how happy [name removed] was to be there. We were welcomed by every staff member we saw as we visited and toured with [name removed] in her wheelchair throughout the facility. I have recommended A Place for Mom to all of my friends. Thank you for providing such a positive experience for those of us who may have need of elder care services in the future.

Finally, a community that ticks the boxes for cleanliness, openness, and friendliness, where residents are treated......
I'd give 5's across the board. The staff knew mom by name by the second day. The dining experience is lovely. Cost for all assisted living is a bit of a shock, but based on the facility and level of service The Beacon's at Gulf Breeze' rates aren't out of line. Finally, a community that ticks the boxes for cleanliness, openness, and friendliness, where residents are treated with dignity.

Recommended to others
Everyone on staff that I dealt with at The Beacon at Gulf Breeze was extremely helpful. The move in/out process was extremely smooth and the staff was helpful in making it as convenient as possible to my schedule. Communicating with everyone was easy and my questions were answered in a timely manner. I encountered one housekeeper during my husband's stay. She seemed to be quite thorough. She also made it clear that she would only clean once a week. I always wondered if she was the only one cleaning in the Memory Care unit. The hallways and common areas needed attention daily that they didn't get. Overall, The Beacon at Gulf Breeze is a lovely facility that I would recommend to others.

Perfect place for Mom
The Sales Manager, [name removed], is very easy to work with and will help facilitate your loved one's transition to Assisted Living. The med techs and the dining hall staff are great and attentive. The cleanliness and friendliness are very good. The staff and the value for cost are great. I would definitely recommend The Beacon at Gulf Breeze to those looking for an Assisted Living facility.

Review for The Beacon at Gulf Breeze
They need more staffing. There is not enough for the number of residents living there. Dining area needs a good cleaning and tables that don't wiggle. It's too dark in the dining room. Devoid of any type of atmosphere. The food is totally gross and at times unrecognizable as to what it is. I have noticed that sometimes a staff member would roughly place the plate of food in front of the resident rather than serving the food. It was as though they were feeding animals, not human beings. Sad.

Uncaring Facility
The staff tires to interact with the family but often the voicemail box is always full, and it is diificult try to get someome to return your call. The food is not bad, it seems to be okay. They offer a lot of activities. The price of care services increases for evey little thing, that your loved one needs. Look into other places for your loved one, prior to choosing this community. In addition, they have a huge turnover in upper management.

Dad’s care
The Beacon was the perfect choice for my dad. Everyone was kind and accommodating; within a week the staff knew him by name and sight. They encouraged him to get involved in their activities and always made sure his medications were given accurately. The room was kept clean and the facility was always clean and inviting!

A place for mom to call home
So far I have been very pleased with our experience at The Beacon at Gulf Breeze, it is definitely a facility that I would recommend to others. The staff are very helpful, accommodating, and informative. The second party companies that they use for physical therapy, home health, etc. have all been amazing to work with. It is expensive because the price is al a carte. This is a night and day difference from the last facility that we were at, it is a great place.

Eye Opening Experience for The First Time Loved One Going Into Memory Care
I would recommend you find another community. The quality of care and the staff ratios are awful and these are some of the reason I suggest another community for your loved one. They didn't have activities for memory care residents. The only thing they did was watch tv.

With this community we walked in and there were fans in the foyer. The roof goes to the top of the building and it was really hot. The rooms were also not designed for ease of movement.

Frequently Asked Questions
about The Beacon at Gulf Breeze

The Beacon at Gulf Breeze offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Beacon at Gulf Breeze 9.3 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
