Reviews of Discovery Commons South Biscayne
February 2025
Brad the ED here is so committed and meticulous about everything here. He goes way above his duty to make sure everything is taken care of. Staff is, for the most part, very good and caring of the residents. Nurses, Kerrie & Travis in memory care take time to listen and help with your loved ones. I wish Travis coukd be there every night (2-10).

Melissa's tour answered every question we had. She is knowledgeable, professional and caring.

We had short notice to find an assisted living facility for my step father, but didn't want him to go just anywhere. We wanted to make sure he would be in a safe environment with good care. Discovery Commons fits all of his needs. Melissa Bestor helped us every step of the way answering all of our questions. I highly recommend you speak with her if you need help finding a safe place for a loved one.

Toured Discovery Commons South Biscayne during a Chamber Leadership day. The staff were very friendly and informative. It was clean and smelled fresh. All the residents seemed happy and some were enjoying sitting outside. We got to watch a demonstration of how dementia affects a person and their ability to complete simple tasks. It was a great hands on experience.
April 2024
I recently toured Discovery Commons South Biscayne and was very pleased with what I saw. From the moment I walked in, everyone greeted me with a smile. All the common areas were well-maintained and the residents seemed happy. It was nice to see how caring the staff were to the residents. It's definitely on top of my list for my grandma to move to!

Discovery Commons memory care unit goes above and beyond with so much love, concern, and patience. It's amazing to witness. Each and every resident has a different set of issues that must be dealt with. Our family commands them for their services to our elderly community. My dad has found some happy moments and that makes us, his family smile. Thank you Discovery Commons.

Brad and Melissa: Speaking on behalf of our Goodier family, we thank the Discovery Commons family for the wonderful care our mother Norma received this past 20 months. From the first day being introduced by Melissa; Mom, Tonya and I felt the compassion and wonderful environment in the facility. The entire staff was so kind and caring for Mom and she genuinely became attached to them. A special thank you to the nurses especially Debby and Sally. Debbie has a special gift and is one of the most caring people I've ever met. The aides were always attentive and patient with her. The dining room staff was always so patient with her as well. Again, we thank all of the staff from the bottom of our hearts for her care! Marc Goodier

Just the beginning of our journey at this facility. Everyone seems genuinely concerned about meeting my mother's needs. They have all been very friendly and willing to answer any and all questions asked. Lots of staff moving about in this facility and they all look happy and content as well as the seniors that are living there. It's a beautiful facility and my hope is that my mom has many enjoyable years there.

I was blessed to have this facility for my mom. My mother, Beverly Stackhouse lived there for almost 5 years staying in the memory care. I can’t say enough how wonderful the staff was and the caring, respect, and yes love for these sweet residents. I would like to thank Kathy, Rho, Judy, Kelly and the rest of the staff. Beautiful people. I tell many friends if they need a home for their love ones, Discovery Commons is a wonderful and caring place. My love and respect to all. Nancy Gajda

Discovery Commons is an answer to prayer! After a sudden change in my Dad's health, he wasn't able to remain at home alone. Because Discovery Commons is an ECC (Extended Care Community), he is able to receive greater care and attention with the higher level of license that the facility holds. This has allowed Dad to remain somewhat independent, and have his needs addressed appropriately. Melissa Vanderbilt-Bestor, the Senior Lifestyle Counselor, is fantastic to work with! She is attentive, communicative, trustworthy and patient. She genuinely cares about the residents, and she is a wonderful ambassador for Discovery Commons and senior living.
December 2022
My husband was welcomed at Discovery Commons memory care unit with a birthday party! Melissa Vanderbilt-Bestor was amazing to work with during this process. She was always there for me. Very helpful during a difficultime for me. She has been a shining star during this entire process.
October 2022
My mother -in- law needed a place to live after rehab. My wife was talking to a contract aide who travels from place to place + she said get Mom into Discovery Commons in North Port because the food is great, the building is brand new + the staff is friendly + caring. We took her advice + she was right. Much thanks to Melissa for all her help.
September 2022
I would like to personally say thank you to Melissa Vanderbilt-Bestor for her compassionate approach when touring with families who are having to place a loved one in a community with a focus on memory care. Melissa can guide families to understand what their loved ones are going through and that understanding brings a whole new outlook. Sometimes in the most difficult of times, you can leave knowing that you found a place that your loved one will be understood and cared for. Thank you Melissa and your team!
September 2022
Melissa was very caring and made us feel very comfortable. She understood what my Mother was going thru and addressed her concerns

Discovery Commons South Biscayne is such a beautiful community! The residents , staff , and management really make the community feel like home and are always positive and kind!
June 2022
The admin staff here are absolutely wonderful.. and the whole move in process went smooth and well. We moved my parent in about 3 months ago. Bridget who is the head nurse here is absolutely horrible. Doesn't hold staff accountable for their actions. She is uncaring and is cold to residents and their families. Thank you to Deborah Spear, Brad, Julia, and Judy who were the few people who made this process easier to bare. I would recommend this community once new nursing staff is put into place.

I recently moved my 93-year-old mom from Fresno, CA to The Springs at South Biscayne, North Port, FL. I was greatly assisted by Mr. Steve Barboe, Senior Sales Consultant, who has absolutely done everything to make this a smooth transition for mom. My mom lived in a single-family home she and my dad built 43 years ago. Not easy leaving all that behind. Mom couldnt live alone anymore and she opted to move close to me; Im in North Port too, where I could best assist her in her twilight years. From the entire business staff, medical staff, cleaning and maintenance staff, kitchen staff, one would be hard-pressed to find a better place. There are an abundant number of fine assisted living facilities in SW Florida, but The Springs at South Biscayne is a facility you should seriously consider for a loved one, friend, or to just pass along to persons having to make these hard decisions. It is my moms home now and most importantly she likes it. Assisted living facilities dont always have great reputations, but this facility is not like others. Its new, clean, and very nice. Apartments are decent size and as my mom will say, the food is very good. Thats a real plus for our loved ones. Mom can order from a menu and if the daily choices arent to her liking, then she can have a burger, soup, BLT, chicken or egg salad sandwich. And ice cream whenever she wants. Mom really likes that. The medical staff closely monitors all residents and does everything they can to keep mom healthy and strong. If you dont believe what Im writing, check it out yourself. This is very important to me as this is my moms home and her life. Speak with Steve Barboe for assistance and hell work with you however he can. If my mom should ever need memory care, which I hope doesnt happen, The Springs has a very highly rated onsite memory care facility as well. Putting a loved one in an assisted living facility isnt easy, but Im pleased where my mom is at.
October 2018
I met Melissa when my husband was in an emergency hospital situation two weeks ago. A friend contacted Melissa from the Springs and explained our situation. Melissa called me immediately, explained how her facility could help us, met with me several times, and continued to assist and guide us through the entire process of registering my husband for this facility. The time she spent connecting hospital requirements, assessments, ambulance services, room set-ups, etc is immeasurable. She was and is professional, absolutely pleasant, and up-beat at all times. Her persistence, dedication, and love towards our needs were a wonderful comfort as weve made the life changes needed for my husband of 58 years. Thank You Melissa, for who you are and what youve done. Blessings Grant and Cathy Lerch

The management at staff at the Springs at South Biscayne are second to none. Ive seen them no action, and they have all been well trained. The Executive Director, Jennifer Kennamer puts the priorities of the residents over everything else. For example, last year during Hurricane Irma, she had her stiff get all of the residents from their apartment to the hallway, as that was the safest place to be. She had staff on all three floors entertaining them with jokes, song singing, etc., to help ease their fears, and she had deli sandwiches, cookies, bottled water, chips, and continually visited each floor personally to make sure all the residents were doing fine. That is just one example of how Jennifer cares for her people. I have many more, but that one will be sufficient for now. I would recommend anyone looking for an assisted living community for a friend, family member, or themselves, I would definitely refer them to the Springs!
March 2018
The whole family accompanied us when my dad went to check it out. We were pleasantly surprise as to how nice it is. Melissa has gone out of her way at every turn to help make my dads transition an easy one. He likes his studio apartment very much and the staff is friendly and helpful at all turns. Our family highly recommends the springs

When my brother in law resided at The Springs, the staff was very cordial and extremely helpful. The chef, Michael, provided delicious meal for the residents.
June 2017
Walking through the main entrance, we were awed at what we saw. Bright and well decorated. The staff were all so helpful and smiling. Residents that we saw all seemed so happy and told us the Springs is where we should be..The dining room was large and welcoming. Linen tablecloths and napkins - not paper like other residences we have visited. The food was a gourmet delight. The Springs was more like a 5 star hotel. So many activities to keep the residents active and enjoying life. I could go on and on describing this place. Thanks to the helpful tours by both Bill and later Steve, we plan to move here, soon
