PositiveResort like experience!
It is a 5 in each area! Like staying at a five star hotel. Room is spacious and clean, food and it's availability almost 24/7 is good with themed dinners, happy hour daily, usually with guest musicians, pontoon rides on intercostal, lectures, yoga, craft activities, and staff is kind and attentive.

CriticalNot what was promised - not enough assistance
When I moved my parents in I was told they would assist them. They do not appear to assist them with the daily problems they experience. Be cautious of salespeople who over promise.

PositiveMy mom lives there.
Shes been there since [date removed].Leads a very active life now.Sometimes hard to get ahold of.Does chair yoga, strength training and games.Shes in better shape than most people. Food can be a little inconsistent. Mom is in independent living and helps her neighbors.
★★★★★
PositiveMeridian is a wonderful facility. I was welcomed warmly and given a great deal of info and an insightful tour. It’s definitely at the top of my list for my husband.
★★★★★
PositiveThis property is really nice. The staff is amazing and the views are great. It looks like a wonderful place for my father to end up and that’s where we are hoping he might go after he’s done with his physical therapy. I really like Kirk. he is easy to work with and genuinely wants you to be happy with your decision whether it’s to go with Meridian or someplace else five stars in my opinion.
