Bradford Square Retirement Community 

Naples, Florida

We have found our experience at Bradford Square to be night and day compared to the previous facility we were living at. The quality of meals here is wonderful, everyone is very friendly, and we have just had a great experience so far. It is everything you could want from a place like this.

Bradford Square has been a wonderful place for my dad and mom. They lost their home during Hurricane Irma. They decided at that time to move to a Senior Living facility. Here is why it is so great: 1. Wonderful Managers - Erika and Shawn are amazing Managers. They are caring, great listeners and consider the residents as family. They also hire a staff that feels those same sentiments. 2. It is beautiful, bright and well maintained. The rooms are a decent size with lots of windows. 3. The food is good with lots of variety. It is cafeteria style, many options for meals and no waiting for food to come out. You can be there as long as you wish, or come down for a meal and leave for whatever is next. 4. Staff, Residents, Managers are friendly and kind. I highly recommend Bradford for your mom and dad. They are a great crew and a blessing to our family. Way. To. Go. On loving on the elderly...seeing them...and caring!!

Bradford Square Retirement Community is perfect for me. I have a beautiful apartment. They do everything, and we have everything and anything, so it's great. The food is very good. I haven't been able to go to the dining room because I can't get around too much, so they deliver my meals to my apartment. The staff is fantastic. I have no complaints. We have a gymnasium, a general store, a movie theater, a swimming pool, and a dining room. I have a full kitchen in my room. They have everything when it comes to activities like bingos, movies, horse racing, and card games.

Bradford Square Retirement Community only has independent living. It's all-inclusive, except if you want to add services. I visited over ten communities and this was by far the best. They truly care. We had a problem with the air-conditioner and one of the owners noticed it and he had somebody there in less than five minutes. It's very family oriented and they treat people like their own. The rooms have full kitchens, washers and dryers within the units that are very easy to operate, and grab handles in the showers and in the bathrooms. They have housekeeping that comes in once a week to clean their rooms and change their linens. They have many, many services that are available. The rooms are very well kept. They have lanais, so they can sit outside and at least get some fresh air, and they have doors throughout the community, so the residents can walk outside. Their screening process is thorough, but simple, not to make it difficult for people to visit their loved ones and for them to be coming in and out. There are three meals a day and they have the option of having their meals in their room or having their meals in the dining area. Right now, because of COVID, they have a salad bar, but they have somebody that's serving them and anyone who has difficulty or anyone who can't carry their plate, they carry that to the table for them. They ensured socialization. When I walked through there the residents were always waiting for dinner and always out there talking. They have a soft serve ice cream machine, and they're all sitting out front eating ice cream. By the end of the short visit, the concierge woman knew my name. The staff is fantastic. They also have on-site managers that live there themselves. They respond to calls for help 24/7. They work in the office, they know the residents, the residents know them by their first name, and they actually live the experience themselves. They're younger, and they're fantastic. They eat the same meals as the residents do, and they have the same amenities as the residents do. There's variety in the food, and it's good. They take care of people who also have dietary needs. The facility is very good. It's like a cruise ship. My mother has been playing bridge, and they've had plenty of activities. It's a good community for somebody who's semi-independent or independent that has family members who don't live in the general area that can't visit them on a regular basis. They offer services there, and if you need something, they help you find it, whether it's groceries or medication or whatever. They go above and beyond.

I have several friends that live at the Bradford and they all rave about the staff. They all talk about the fun and good food and they all recommend it as a great place to live. One day soon I'll call it home too.

We have been looking at all the senior and assisted living facilities in Naples for more than a year and toured or visited most several times. When we finally make the move, Bradford Square will be our first choice! Everything from their food to their events have been the most consistently good out of any place we go. Definitely the best around.

Love this place and people!
