Discovery Village The Forum

Good morning Mary, THANK YOU & your team for making our 6/9/26 NFMAA Board meeting so amazing!! The surroundings are large and tastefully arranged. The food supplied was amazing and very well enjoyed by our attendees. WOW! You folks sure utilize your options for meetings in a very nice, welcoming location. Again thank you to everyone. Greatly Dee (President) N. Ft. Myers Arts Assn.

We couldn’t be more grateful for the care my aunt receives at Discovery Village at the Forum. The memory care team in particular has been outstanding. They show so much compassion, understanding, and respect to every resident. It’s clear that the staff genuinely loves what they do. The environment is warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for comfort and safety. Every time we visit, we see residents engaged, smiling, and treated with dignity. It means the world to know she is in such good hands.

I am thrilled with the recent staff changes, the new people working here are just wonderful, helpful, considerate, friendly, just a pleasure to be with. Special kudos to Marsha. She is a gem! It's a beautiful Facility with lots of benefits, including transportation as needed, two meals a day with scrumptious food, many activities, movies, individual games with smaller groups of people, general bingo every day. There's no lack of things to do here. And the rooms are really beautiful and quiet. Free cable and Internet. The area is really peaceful, not in the heart of Fort Myers where it's noisy and trafficky , it's very low-key. There is a Publix right nearby, Pharmaciesand shopping at the forum that includes Home Depot, target, Michael's, and a bunch of other Restaurants and shops , All about a mile away. There are nice places to walk outside around the buildings, it is very dog friendly so you meet lots of little pooches when you walk around. They have a bar and lounge with music every Monday afternoon. They have birthday parties every month. They have a gorgeous pool With tables and shade that almost nobody uses but if you like to swim you will have it All to yourself. They have a piano in the lounge that you're free to play if the urge comes up. They have singing groups and trivia. They're welcome visitors to their guests, and I am one of them. I always feel welcome and people are always happy to see me. I chose this place for my brother-in-law, and I'm really happy I did. I live nearby in Pelican Preserve Retirementcommunity which works out great because it's so close. So if you are a senior and have relatives that require more of an independent living situation, you can have a similar set up with Pelican Preserve and Discovery Village. It works great. In fact many people from Pelican Preserve end up moving to Discovery Village.

About a year ago, I needed to relocate my uncle to be closer to family, and Gigi at Discovery Village at The Forum made the entire transition smooth and stress-free. She was always available to answer questions and took the time to go over every detail of the contract with my sister and me. We never felt rushed or pressured at any point. Even a year later, Gigi continues to be a great resource—always helpful, responsive, and genuinely caring. She’s truly an asset to Discovery Village, and I’m so grateful for all her support!
