Confident about Mom’s care

The Legacy at Highwoods Preserve is a nice assisted living home located in a quiet neighborhood in the New Tampa area. My mother is 102 years old and now needs assistance with daily living tasks as well as support with her medical needs. I am happy to share that The Legacy has provided quality care for my Mom for one year now, therefore I can confidently attest to their reliability. Staff are kind and helpful. They look after my Mom with a group effort to assure she is well cared for, safe, healthy and happy. Delicious home made, hot meals are served with a smile 3 times a day. The facility is always clean and well maintained. Management is personally assuring that all concerns are addressed. I highly recommend The Legacy to anyone who needs assisted living support.

Legacy at Highwoods Preseve

We chose Legacy of Highwoods Preserve mostly due to the facilities proximity to me. So far we have had excellent care, staff are friendly, there is a nurse on premise, great activities, and it is very clean. On the meals, there are very little fresh fruits served. I would recommend Legacy to other families.

Constructive Advice

Since the new director, is on place, Legacy is moving in a positve direction. The staff is great, except they are short staffed. They need seperate employee to do laundry. The cleaning crew, which is one person upstairs is awful. When I visit, I clean my moms room and it is disgusting. He needs coaching.

Positive experience

My loved one is very happy here at Legacy at Highwoods Preserve. I love the way it is laid out, the common areas are very compact. She loves the staff, they are all very sweet to her and she has been happy with the care as well. [name removed] the manager has such a happy and encompassing demeanor. He knows everyone of the residents name. Everyone knows her name and acknowledges her when they see her. I would definitely recommend Legacy at Highwoods Preserve to others looking.

This is the 4th senior community that we have been involved with. It's by the best one. They don't use 'fuzzy' math when billing, the caregivers are kind and patient, people follow through on maintenance requests (hanging pictures, etc.)

Happy to have a home

We are completely satisfied with Legacy at Highwoods Preserve. I was very impressed with the staff in the beginning, specifically [name removed] the director. I liked his availability, forthrightness, and he did a good job making me feel comfortable with our decision and that has not changed since we have moved in. It has been a great experience and we are glad we found Legacy.

NO PLACE LIKE HOME (at the LEGACY) per [name removed]!!!

If you are looking for a cozy atmosphere for your loved one look no further than the LEGACY.... My mom has been there over 2 years and I cannot say enough for the director and ALL the staff employed at the LEGACY. There is always something to keep all the residents engaged. THE LEGACY is a smaller community, and you have a feeling of a family not a HOTEL. I have recently visited a friend's mom in one of the new communities and although the community was BRAN NEW, the feeling, and treatment you receive at THE LEGACY was just not there. I would highly recommend THE LEGACY for your loved one!

Disney World for the Elderly

My mom is a resident of The Legacy for 2 years. She moved in just before COVID so we did not get to experience THE LEGACY as we know it now. Things are getting back to normal a bit and I find THE LEGACY to be an amazing facility. The director, and all the staff really take pride in operating this facility. I visit my mom everyday, so I see everyday how wonderful this facility is. If you are looking for a place for your parent, I would HIGHLY recommend THE LEGACY, it is like Disney World for the elderly!!!!!

I found Legacy at Highwood Preserve to be comparable to the other places we toured. They seemed average. We picked a different community because we preferred the location of the room within the facility.

Wonderful Facility and Wonderful Executive Director

Although I'm a vendor at this property, I found the facility to be immaculately clean and it smelled wonderful. The staff and particularly the executive director, [name removed] was amazing. His attitude is focused on the well-being of his residents, their families and the employees and staff. Highly recommended. BTW...lunch was delicious. Jonathan A. Steiner Air Esscentials.

Visited a friend

This senior community is tucked away within a preserve off Bruce B Downs. You’ve probably passed it 1000 times like I have. Well now I have a friend at the Legacy. The peace and quiet is really something I didn’t expect. The care is very terrific and everyone knows my friends name and all the things she likes and dislikes. The food is apparently amazing. I’ve seen the menus but haven’t eaten here yet. According to the residents it is as good as it looks. Two thumbs here

After visiting other communities, I chose The Legacy. The executive director is always available for a chat, abs he truly loves helping people. He treats all of the residents like they were his family. I have had several meals there, with the latest being their Holiday Party for the residents and families. It was a wonderful experience, with great food and really great entertainment.

The residents at this community all seemed very happy and comfortable when we first visited. The people who work there are very caring and knowledgeable in the way that they really know all the residents. They know everything about our loved one and that was the thing that impressed us most. The rooms are very beautiful, and our loved one is very happy with the food.

Legacy At Highwoods Preserve

So far, our experience has been good. We did have some issues with billing in the beginning, which was fairly costly to me. It is a nice, high end place, which is what I wanted. The only issue is there is a lot of turnover in the staff, which means the same people we moved in with are no longer there. The new management really seems to be in charge of things and have done a good job with keeping the residents safe during the Covid-19 pandemic. They are good about communicating with us about my husband's care and let me know if there are any issues. The food is a little underwhelming. They do try to encourage my husband to participate in the activities.
