Merrill Gardens at Solivita Marketplace

The residents are a very nice and diverse group of people. They have lots of amenities and I feel that the community runs very well. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

Most important Ball Game no TV gee not a priaraty Breakfast this morning Cold pancakes drinkable oatmeal, not what I expected for the money.

I would tell others that they make it easy to get in. They take the stress off during the move in. There are a lot of shopping centers, grocery stores, and a library close by. The community as a whole is worth your investment.

We toured Merrill Gardens and it was a great tour and nice facility. The only reason we did not choose it was because of the location, it was too far away from where we live.

They make you feel at home from the first day you get here. Everybody is very friendly, very helpful. If you can't find something to do , then that's your own fault. Because there's something going on all the time. Twice a week there's Bingo, there's Word Web, everyday there's exercise, and pool aerobics if the weather is permitting. We've been starting to play board games like Rummikub and Skip Bo in the activity room. That's available every day until about 4:00. There's crafts, barbecues and cookouts at the pool with entertainment. Every week we have happy hour, often by the pool with entertainment. Wednesday nights we've started having Game-bouree. If you want to sit in your room, that's fine. But you can't say they don't offer things. On Fridays, they have a bus that takes you to Publix, Walmart, Walgreens, or Aldi. Those are all just a couple of miles down the road. They'll drop you off and come back to get you. I came here of my own volition, because I wanted to be in an active community. This one was well within my budget, and the best rate I have found. It's such a good value. I would highly recommend them to anybody.

Sometimes the food is really good and sometimes the food is not, for example we had lamp chops for dinner and it was amazing, but for breakfast it was served a little cold. The offer a wide variety of activities, they have a pool a gym and plenty of exercise classes. I have a huge one bedroom, with a kitchen, living room, a huge bathroom and huge walk in closet and a screened in patio. The price is okay but i do like living here. I have house keeping come once a week, and i have my own washer and dryer.

They've been great, even during the pandemic. The food suffered a little bit for a while, but is coming back up in quality again. They are a great value - in comparison shopping , the size of the apartments are very spacious, and the accommodations themselves are beautiful. The landscaping is beautiful, and there's a great dining facility, even though it has not been open yet. The location is very nice. It's very close to a small hospital, which makes care convenient, and it's also close to the marketplace for shopping. Merrill Gardens is off the beaten path, away from the high traffic areas. So you feel as if you're in the countryside, but there's plenty close by. My loved one was very happy with the nursing and medical staff there. The director of nursing was outstanding.

We chose Merrill Gardens because of the value for the money as well as the location was convenient for family. they were really willing to work with my siblings and I to get her in here as quick as possible. She is in a studio apartment and I thought it was perfect for her. It reminds me of an over-sized dorm room. They keep our family informed of everything, there is always an email or a phone call so nothing is a secret. I would absolutely recommend them to others looking.

The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to take care of my loved one. I would definitely recommend this community to others

The community is a good facility, they have services like housekeeping and laundry you can get. My husband and I would like to live there if we have the oppertunity. I would recommend this community to others.

I highly recommend this community for your loved one. In fact I would want to go here when the time comes. The staff and the things such as activities for the residents stand out to me. Merrill Gardens has a cafe, and choices of foods. The community is comfortable, updated, and clean. It is fairly new. During the pandemic the staff has been really good, at keeping us updated on our loved one. They have been very attentive with the residents, including our loved one.

We chose Merrill Gardens at Solivita because of the location and the price was in our range. The apartment sizes here are pretty spacious, they do also have variety based on what you need. I have eaten here and the food is good. I like the fact that this community calls the residents every morning to check in on them. If they don't answer, someone goes to knock on their door to make sure everything is ok. I would recommend.

Compared to different areas around Florida, Merrill Gardens value is pretty fair. The overall organization is nice given that this is a larger community. Our loved one really enjoyed the food at first, but since COVID everything has changed. The meals are now being delivered to their rooms, so the quality of the food per our loved one has gone down dramatically. Our loved one is living in a two room apartment, and it is perfectly spacious for her.

Exelent place

My mom just love her new home. She loves the food. She loves the other residents. It is very cost-effective. The staff is very caring. They really focus on the needs of each individual resident. They could add more variety in the food choices.

Moved in March, now it's June and I'm looking to move out.

The memory care is great, and private. The community is clean and bright and does not smell like a nursing home.The staff is helpful. They have a nice garden area in the back. It could use some help with the landscaping. Prior to the quarantine they had lots of activities and went on outings weekly. They have taken very good care of my father in law and our whole family.

This is a very beautiful, clean facility. They offer assisted living and memory care units. We were impressed with the staff, as they seem to be very attentive to the residents-even when no one is looking, and the residents seem very happy. We would definitely "drop in" (without an appt.) at a few different times of the day, just to check up, but we would do that anywhere before making a decision.

Very inviting. Staff and residents are happy and positive! Beautiful place. Too bad their assisted living med techs can’t administer insulin due to the facilities licensing.

Mom has only been here a little over 2 months. But both of us are pleased. The apartments are open with nice layouts and large bathrooms. The balconies are screened in. They have a new heated pool too. One thing we like is there are not set hours for meals. The kitchen opens in the morning and closes in the evening. So you can eat whenever you like during those hours. There is always something going on in the common area's. Residents playing games or just socializing.
