While the staff member conducted their duties with a surface-level professionalism, their tone and behavior were condescending , dismissive, and bordered on openly rude. At one point in the conversation she stated "How did you even get in here?". It's important to mention there was one man sitting at the front desk when I checked in on the tablet, She of course wasn't. What concerned me most, however, were the subtle but unmistakable racial undertones in the interactions--particularly in the difference between how I was treated compared to the other guest.

My husband w/FTD moved to Auberge at Bee Cave. I found the staff to be loving, hard-working; and…read morethey listen with a willingness to help. Meals are delicious & staff seemed organized when feeding & giving meds to residents in dining room. First full day at Auberge I visited my husband. I located him in the activities room, in his wheelchair w/his head hanging low. He was unresponsive. A staff member approached me & advised he had been in this state for a long time. Nurse was called & he was rushed to the hospital for a 2-day stay. My Husband was given wrong medication which had been discontinued. Auberge advised this was not their fault but the pharmacy's fault. My husband was sent back to Auberge and perished several days later. Heartbroken! I paid over $7000 for the first month. Upon my husband's death, I was advised there will be a refund of some kind. Apparently the Contract I signed states an Additional 2-weeks will be charged when resident dies. My refund will be less than $2000 which means I'm paying over $4000 for a 1-week stay minus the 2 days in hospital. I understand mandatory two weeks charge upon death if resident had a lengthy stay, BUT my husband was there for 7 days (minus the days in hospital cause by, in my opinion, improperly medicating)! Unhappy!! Experience from Friday, 8/30/24 through Friday, 09/06/24.

The best aspect of The Auberge is hands down the staff. Between the Administrative staff and the care givers I know my mom is well cared for and looked after. They are patient, attentive and provide stimulation for all of the residents throughout the day. Her room is always very clean and her hygiene is of upmost importance. Before moving my mom to The Auberge at Bee Cave, she was living in a different Assisted Living community. I struggled with clear communication and follow up because my mom is nonverbal. The staff at The Auberge Bee Cave is very sensitive to this condition. They all are very communicative and anytime there is a question or an incident they call me immediately. It is such a relief knowing that my mom is safe and in a caring community that truly looks after her needs.

Watermark's management since 2019 has brought consistent, high quality leadership and practices to…read morethe facility. And that has been true during 14 months of COVID19 restrictions and a once-in a lifetime winter storm that robbed most of the city of water and power for days. It is remarkable that the Watermark team was able to continue with so little disruption to residents. The current staff earn really high marks for both caring and skill at what they do - even in challenging circumstances. Crises notwithstanding, the Watermark seems to work hard to be a real home for residents on both the Assisted Living and Memory Care sides of the facility. The two program directors are tireless in thinking up an endless array of outings, celebrations, games, lectures and demonstrations for all interests and abilities (e.g. pub night, mystery dinner theater, Jamaican Independence Day with a steel band, Dancing with the Stars, fishing excursion, Lake Austin boat trip to see the eagles and Senior Games athletic competition at UT). There is a lot available every day, but no one is obliged to participate. Shopping and dining outings were scheduled weekly before COVID and there are frequent special events where family and friends are welcome, including live music Happy Hour every Friday. Our loved one was in Memory Care and we have been thrilled to find that it is also about active living and learning and fun! No one is pushed, simply invited to join in at whatever level they can. Our sister was up, dressed and busy every day with games, exercises, and creating things. Moving into Elan/Watermark, after living alone, turned out to be a wonderful life changer. It gave her an instant set of friends, things to do and a reason to get up and stay awake every day. This was much more than we hoped for and it made the last four years of her life very positive, happy ones. Linda B.

I find it to be a "Great Grand Place!!" The apartments and overall feeling of beautiful and well-designed buildings (and decor) are exceptionally well-done. It is very airy with a big open feeling. The food and service goes beyond what I expected. All staff are so kind and knowledgeable at Grand Living, and that could not be better for a new place now less than six-months being open. It's good to be here! And, I wish to live at GL for many more good months and years to come. From: Maggie "Bird" at Grand Living

I visited Grand Living at the Grove in early February to schedule a tour for a potential new…read moreresident. The Sales staff and Executive Director were very helpful. The Grove is different than other luxury communities in that if a person moves into Independent Living and experiences a decline in health necessitating increased care (Assisted Living or Memory Care) the additional services come to the resident, and the resident does not have to relocate to a new apartment in Assisted Living or Memory Care. This is a very nice accommodation! Also, the Grove employs their own "Nursing Staff" who can attend to residents when there is a fall, skin tear, etc. The resident does not have to go to the doctor or an ER to get checked out. The nursing staff comes to see the resident in their apartment. The Grove is centrally located in Austin and has several restaurants within walking distance of the community. The streets are well-lit, and the sidewalks are new and wide enough to accommodate individuals who use walkers or wheelchairs and there seems to be plenty of parking. Many more pluses in the services offered in this community. Well worth stopping by to see if this community is fit for your family member or loved one.

Plenty of cabinet space and drawers. The kitchen also has a large double stainless steel sink and faucet. The wall across from the kitchen has a large closet for storage and also a full size GE washing machine and dryer. The living room has plenty of room for a large recliner, a grandfather clock, a 65 inch Samsung TV and a large double door cabinet where I have my 27 inch iMac computer. Between the recliner and outside wall I also have a 36"x36" pedestal table, where I have a large hammered copper lamp with shade. The two walls forming the corner behind the recliner and grandfather clock, have two large glass windows covered by Venetian blinds. Moving through the lockable door into the bedroom there is room enough for a queen sized bed, and a three drawer cabinet with lamp. The outside wall has a large window covered with Venetian blinds. Sliding double doors lead into a closet with plenty of room for hanging shirts, and with shelves that hold baskets for socks, and underwear. Under the shelf on the right there is room for a large four drawer cabinet where I can store pajamas and a large collection of various shoes. A single sliding door leads into a spacious bathroom, complete with a shower, toilet, and lavatory. There are two spacious cabinets and drawers next to the shower. Another reason I picked this third floor apartment is that it is located next to the fire escape stairs. I never use the elevators because I like the exercise I get walking up and down the stairs. My apartment is also located at the very end of this wing of The Reserve apartment complex. Consequently I don't hear or see any of my neighbors. Thanks for your time and attention.

I have felt very protected since Covid 19 started with all protocols enforced. No place is perfect; not even at home.
