Warm and Comfortable

Everyone is very welcoming and lovely. The atmosphere walking in is homelike. There were people watching a movie and the smell of popcorn was in the air when I first visited. All the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. The courtyard is full of greenery and there are beautiful plants all over the patio.

Helped my Dad so much

When we needed an assisted living facility for my dad after a stroke, the Opal at Lakes Park came highly recommended, and I’m so glad we chose it! The management and staff were genuinely concerned about my dad, and I never found that he was neglected or needed care. My dad was able to make friends and participate in activities, and it was great to see him enjoying life at the Opal.

They took very good care of my mom. Staff is like family and treated us with respect and dignity. There wasn’t a time where we came to the community and there wasn’t something going on. My mom loved going to the lunch outings.

Mom is happy

Most of the staff is friendly and patient. Facility is clean, nursing staff changes meds as needed. Mom seems to enjoy the food. Not a lot of activities.

Staff! Great people. The facility administrator is the reason the facility was chosen. Now the Corporate CEO, [name removed], makes over 6 million. GREEDY! Does not pay any staff enough. They work hard.

Brookdale Fort Myers Review

Things they do well at: They are great at working to fit into families budget. The director is very friendly and helpful. Areas for improvement: Everyday staff could be more friendly, they could try to get to know the resident and make interactions fun, pleasant and like family.

Attentive staff

Brookdale Fort Myers Lakes Park is very clean and also has a "homey" feeling to it. The staff have all been extremely friendly and attentive to my loved ones needs. They address and resolve any questions or concerns quickly and in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend Brookdale to other families looking.

Daughter

My mom has lived with me for 5 years. When she came to Lakes Park she was welcomed and right away she felt like she was at home. She actually told me she loved me for the first time in 5 years. Don't wait they will love you for it.
