I recently had the pleasure of helping my aunt transition to her new home at The Camellia, a step that she, a fiercely independent lady, initially resisted due to the significant change it represented. From our very first visit, the warmth and welcoming nature of the staff began to ease her concerns, subtly assuring her that this could indeed be a delightful place to live. One of the facility's most accommodating features was their ability to house both my aunt and uncle in the same room. This gesture significantly helped in maintaining a semblance of their normal life, making the transition much smoother for them both. Their daily life continues to thrive at The Camellia. The dining room has become a highlight of their day, not only because of the excellent food but also due to the social interactions they enjoy with fellow residents. An added comfort is knowing that even when one of them feels under the weather, they can still savor a good meal together in the privacy of their own room. This flexibility is invaluable, ensuring they continue to enjoy their daily routines without interruption. I highly recommend The Camellia to anyone looking for a facility that respects its residents' independence while providing the necessary support for day-to-day living. The staff's dedication to creating a nurturing environment that celebrates the individuality and independence of its residents is truly commendable.

My grandparents love it here! They've made so many new friends, and this place is never boring for them! Happy hours, weekly shopping trips, and so much more!! Thank you for taking such good care of them!
My mother and step father had their identity stolen by a staff member who accessed their credit card and checking account information. Several thousand dollars were taken out of their bank accounts. The evening before my mother passed away, an empty syringe that had contained her oral morphine was left on the countertop in her room, which is a medical violation. Additionally, later that evening one of the attendants walked past me in the lobby area reeking of marijuana smoke. I was horrified to find numerous cockroaches in her room as well. The security here is laughable. The front doors do not work properly and can simply be pulled apart to open. No one ever checks the sign in sheet to see if anyone has signed out. There was a large stain on the floor next to my mother's bed that indicated that something had spilled onto the floor and been half heartedly wiped away and not properly mopped up. Only after I said something did the spot get properly cleaned. Had my mother not passed away on Christmas morning, my family had decided we were going to move her away from The Camellia. I do not recommend this facility in the slightest.
Residents are very happy. Great activities, food, and care. This is a great place for your loved one.
Very nice facility and everyone here goes over and beyond to make sure residents get the special care they need. I definitely recommend the camellia at gulf breeze.
