I recently toured your community. The place was very clean. Rooms were light and bright due to the beautiful big windows. Employees were cheerful and helpful. I may visit again soon.

Best independent senior facility in Venice, FL

Venetian Gardens is a wonderful facility where the staff really care for the residents, the food staff listens to residents in what they like and don't like and remember from meal to meal, and the value for the money is excellent. I will to recommend this facility to everyone I talk to. I brought one of my mother's friends over for a visit and now she is moving in! I love this place.

We made an announced stop at Venetian Gardens by Sky Active Living and were pleasantly greeted by the manager. She was very nice and helpful in providing us information and a tour of the facility. It is definitely a place we will be revisiting when the time is right.

My experience is I'm very happy with my choice

I would answer 5 to all the questions as everyone has been very helpful and kind. There are so many things to do. I would definitely recommend. I realize it isn't the place for some people but they have the choice to make for themselves.
