Shell Harbor Retirement Community

Wonderful Resort-style Community Home for the elderly. I was amazed!

Beautiful all-inclusive retirement community. Excellent meals, activities, movie theater, banking, salon/barber service… Come take a tour and a complimentary meal. Tell them “Peggy sent you”

My mother is currently a resident at Shell Harbor Retirement Community and everything is great! She rates this facility at a 5 for everything. We would recommend this facility to family and friends. We're extremely satisfied with everything here at Shell Harbor.

My wife and I love it here. The food is excellent. And one can order room service, but beware, it's almost never delivered exactly as ordered. Missing items. You're better off going to the dining room. Sometimes though room service isn't just an option. I wish we had chef Jeff's phone number. I'm sure he would correct the situation.

I love it here!! The residents are very nice. They watch out for one another. The managers are quick to implement improvements. And the apartments are beautiful. Pets are welcome. It's a beautiful place to live.

Wonderful management and staff!

Shell Harbor Retirement felt like being on a cruise, but then you can just go back to your own house. It seemed like a good environment. I would live there myself. I liked how everybody was so nice. I liked the staff's knowledge of the facility and their joy for the facility. They believe in what they're doing. I think that they paid attention to detail when they were building the facility and wanted to provide the very best for the residents there. They had a gym, a very large dining room, a great theater, an outdoor fire pit, and even a pharmacy with pharmacists who would do individual packaging for each day's pill for free. It was just good.

We are in a 2 bedroom apartment- it is bright and big and has wonderful storage space. The parking is easy. The food is very good - we are in transition right now getting a new chef. They have a lot of activities provided for the residents and they add more all the time especially if residents show interest. It is a very friendly atmosphere and I would definitely recommend Shell Harbor to others looking.

I toured Shell Harbor Retirement, and by far, it's the best. The tour was very well organized. The people were very friendly, not just the staff that work there, but also the people who live there. We looked at a two-bedroom apartment, and it was by standards of two bedrooms. It was very spacious, and it had walk-in closets, which is a nice feature when you're moving into a place like that. Most of the other places we looked at did not have walk-in closets. They have a nice dining room. They have three meals a day. You could pick and choose obviously not to go to all three. You can have room service delivery of meals. It would be like living in a fine hotel where you have room service, and you can have valet parking if you want it. They can bring your car around when you want. It was a very positive tour. It's so new and everything was spiffy, painted, and shiny. It's raised for a level four category for hurricane, which is comforting. They have a big diesel generator to give them basic power that you would need if the power went out, so they thought of everything, and it's a well-designed place. We ate lunch there, and it was very good. We looked at the menus and they had very nice selections for lunch, dinner, and breakfast, and they're very well done.

I'm at Shell Harbor Retirement. It's a brand new facility. It offers very gracious community activities. It's well-staffed. Excellent food is one of their specialties. There's a spacious kitchen and it's well equipped. The entire unit is brand new and meant to be comfortable with great closets. The only thing I'm sliding it on is the lack of a pool.

We found Shell Harper is the best place for my father-in-law. They have everything any retired person needs and still keep their independence. They opened last year so everything is brand new and clean. The staff is very friendly and available 24 hours for the residents' convenience and emergencies. My father-in-law couldn’t be happier anywhere else.

We toured Shell Harbor Retirement. It's very nice, brand new, nice-looking, and nice layout. The interior is beautiful. It does not have garages; it has carports. We looked at a two-bedroom. It was nicely laid out. Some had balconies, but the ones that we looked at did not have balconies. The staff was very good. They showed us around. It's a beautiful place. It has all the amenities. It does not have a swimming pool; that's the only amenity that they didn't have. They have three meals a day, and we don't think that we need three meals a day. They have plenty of activities. They have a theater room, and a church group was in there having some kind of meeting. They have movies in there at night. They have an exercise room. The place was very clean. The bedroom that we saw, no one had ever been there. It was brand new.

Shell Harbor is very pleasant and very friendly - which is very important. They could offer more activities, but they have housekeeping services once a week, and a washer and dryer in unit. If you're not up to it, they'll do your laundry for an additional fee. They'll deliver any meal to your door for no additional cost if you don't want to go down to the dining area. I have cable and internet and the apartments are beautiful. I have a 2 bedroom 2 bath, with a full kitchen and lots of storage. There's free parking with plenty of spots in the lot, and covered parking is available for a fee. There's also a valet service to bring your car up for you, and if you have a walker, they'll help you in your car. They offer transportation M-F to appointments and stores. We especially like that if you move to independent to assisted living, you're allowed to stay in your apartment with caregivers/aides who will come in and help you. That extra help does come at an additional cost, but that's the case with other communities as well.

I love it here! It's a wonderful place. It doesn't pretend to be assisted living. It's not - it's independent living. But they have arrangements for emergencies. And if you get sick and you need more help, you can hire for it. That helps them keep their prices down, and then you only pay for what you need. I love my apartment. I have one of the smallest ones here, but it's very nice. I can't say enough good things - and certainly for the price - no question. Everybody I know feels the same way. We say to each other "Aren't we lucky to be in such a wonderful place?" Everybody is very friendly and talks to everybody. We eat together and go to happy hour together. There's also transportation to go to doctor appointments within a 10-mile radius, included at no extra charge. You get three meals a day and utilities all included (electric, internet, TV, phone, etc.).

They're very welcoming and very helpful. And they're there to help you with anything you need. The apartment is nice. It was new when my loved one moved in, so it was very clean. And it's a nice size.

I am very happy to give Shell Harbor my highest review. Initially, my dad did not want to leave Merritt Island but after visiting Shell Harbor in Rockledge and talking to several friends that had moved in (rave reviews: “It’s like living on a cruise ship”), he was ready. The entire staff could not have been more helpful. The facility is brand new – it opened on Sept. 1 – and the facility, apartments, and grounds are beautiful. The live-in management team – Paul and Hala Nichols along with Justin Estrich (Sr. Living Consultant) are available to assist in any way to help with the move-in and beyond. Every effort is made by the staff to accommodate the needs of the residents. The dining staff from the chef to servers could not be more helpful and the food and food choices are plentiful and always freshly made. There are planned activities every day and many social opportunities if wanted. A beautiful gym, sauna, salon, and pharmacy are also onsite as well as a concierge team (led by Chris). They offer transportation and have a hospitality suite for guests. The amenities go on and on and if you are a senior or have a senior in your life, you owe it to yourself to check it out. My dad is safe, happy, and loves his new home. I couldn’t be happier knowing he never has to eat alone again. I highly recommend Shell Harbor.

Hey everyone this is an incredible Retirement Community that just opened in Rockledge. The food is delicious and the amenities are unbelievable!!! If you are looking for your forever home please consider this place!!

Beautiful property! I am so comfortable knowing my mother lives in such a vibrant and caring community.

Wonderful place for mom and grounds are lovely.
