The organization; friendliness; creativity; excellent staff; medical support; well maintained; & gorgeous view of the Bay from my room; & so much more. The front desk is very busy with most capable managers at the helm. Our dining room is surrounded by windows, looking over the Bay. The kitchen & servers are so helpful. I think the food is well-balanced for seniors. We are very fortunate to have such caring caretakers who take time to understand our needs. I have only praises for this community.

Brookdale Bayshore is a beautiful community for seniors right on Tampa Bay and I am so glad my grandmother chose to live here. We recently moved her in and she is loving her daily walks on Bayshore Boulevard, her waterfront apartment and views of the city. The staff are friendly and make each interaction so personal as they assist the residents. After visiting for a few hours, we truly felt like family here. The food is very good and you can order a la carte. The head chef even came out of the kitchen on our visit and engaged with those in the dining room. We also witnessed a group tour returning from an excursion where the staff had packed lunch and taken residents on a mystery tour of Tampa. Everyone was so happy and looking forward to the next outing. The staff took extra care to link my grandmother up with other residents that shared similar interests and ensure she settled into her new apartment. Even one of my grandmother’s friends has followed her here. My extended family enjoys visiting my Grams here and she loves her new lifestyle!

I consider myself very lucky to live here at Brookdale Bayshore. For the past five years, I have made many new friends and we enjoy many planned activities such as daily exercise, outings, and music several times a week, Happy Hour with live entertainment and appetizers once a week, bingo, book club just to mention a few. I have found the staff, including the front desk, maintenance crew, nursing staff, and personalized living to be very helpful at all times. Also, the chefs work very hard to provide good, wholesome meals for us residents. The servers are very polite and always helpful. I often find myself looking out the window at the water and enjoying the beautiful view of Tampa Bay and I consider myself very fortunate to live in beautiful South Tampa.
