Recent reviews of Independent Living in Broward County, FL
4 / 5.0

We chose Pacifica Senior Living Forest Trace because I thought they had more to offer and it looked a lot cleaner. I just thought it would be a better fit for my mom compared to others we saw and it has turned out to be so. Mom has a studio and it works well for what she needs.

5 / 5.0

We have had no complaints at all. They always send me pictures of her doing activities and they say she is very active. The staff are very good communication, they are always updating me and sending pictures of different things. I would recommend Courtyard Plaza and already have.

4.3 / 5.0

The staff is very helpful and friendly. The apartments are nice. The residents are diverse and friendly. There are actually a good number of men. The price is reasonable for what you get. My mother is happy there, and she has made many friends. She has had no complaints.
