Community Reviews
grandma finally moved in
reviewed on: 05/07/2019 by Rudy Ramon Jr.My grandma has been living at this community for a month this past Monday. I initially stayed with her the first 3 nights. She had managers coming into her apartment to greet her, staff coming by to clean her apartment and even residents introducing themselves. A month later, everyone here remains genuine, devoted and true to their word. Everything [name removed], [name removed] and [name removed] promised has been delivered upon even 30 days later. This team is consistent!
Best in San Antonio
reviewed on: 10/24/2015 by AnonymousI have a family member at New Forest and could not be more pleased. The facility and grounds are well kept and clean, even with construction going on. The staff is not only friendly and helpful, but participate in the fun events they offer. The director, Randy, interacts with all the residents, including my mom, and seems to never forget a name. That is impressive for such a large property. It is so affordable that you might think you would have to sacrifice quality, but I have not found that to be true at all.
Peaceful Transition
reviewed on: 03/31/2019 by AnonymousI have known of this community for many years now as I have had several tours with Michael. I have always noticed their personalized engagement with the residents which is what sets them apart from other communities I have toured over the years. Carolina and Susan were very helpful in the recent transition of my mother, this team is very detailed. Every question I had was answered and any sense of doubt that my mother had was eradicated. They all seem sincere from the director to the wonderful lady in the business office, Lisa. I look forward to having my mother here!
No cooking or driving
reviewed on: 10/23/2015 by Patricia FitzgeraldI attended an open house our at NewForest Estates, I was not ready to move in yet when my best friend of over thirty years informed me she was moving back to San Antonio. I informed her that I had the perfect place for her to move into. She loved her new apartment and the help. When I was ready I also moved in and I have been here one year. I love to eat my meals with my friend and I am glad that we do not have to drive anywhere to see each other. I am safe here and the best part is I do not have to cook! The staff is nice and helpful. There is transportation outings if I need to get anything.
