While searching for a place for my mom to transition to as she ages we were recommended by numerous people to look into Azalea and we were all very impressed with both the facility and the staff. It felt like walking into a comfortable and welcoming home. Wendy, Kaitlin and everyone we met with were all extremely helpful, honest, and kind. We decided on choosing Azalea for my Mom and felt extremely relieved and comfortable with our decision. Thanks for all the help and honesty while making this difficult decision.

I had the pleasure to tour Azalea Estates on 9/4/24. I was so pleased with the beauty and clean surroundings, friendly employees and Residents that I met during the tour. Katelyn, Marketing and Sales, took me on the tour. She is a lovely lady, that gave a thorough tour of this Beautiful Independent Living Apartment Complex. I am considering the possibility of getting an Apartment in this Complex within the next year.

My partner and I moved to Azalea Estates about the beginning of April, 2024. To understand GOOD it truly helps to know BAD. We moved from a retirement community in Durham that is very poorly managed. The Executive Manager at the retirement community in Durham is, generously speaking, incredibly inept and the Management Company there is despicable. Azalea Estates is the complete opposite. I read a review from someone that appears to be disgruntled former employee criticizing the Manager at Azalea Estates (Windy) as being narcissistic and concerned with keeping the occupancy at 100%. Experience tells me that review is inaccurate based upon the writer's bias and ignorance. The manager's job is to make sure that the train is in full operating order (staff works properly and the facility is well maintained) and that it runs on schedule. She's not hired to be anybody's friend or babysitter. As middle management, she receives pressure from the parent corporation from above and pressure from the residents. That's never a comfortable position. In order to make the trains run on time, the revenue from the occupancy is the essential fuel that makes this happen. In closing I can only say that this retirement community is exceptionally well run. The facilities are well maintained, the food is extremely well prepared for communal living, and the staff is fantastic. A thermodynamic analogy would be that if management did not expend a great deal of energy running this place, entropy would dictate relentless decay. Congratulations and thanks for a job well done by Windy and Chris. Ken Gordon

I work here through another company. All the housekeeping and kitchen staff are always so nice. I can't give much detail about the management or the administration side of things if you're reading the post for that. It's a beautiful building inside, several engaging activities available for active seniors in this building. I see lots of people walking their dog, it's dog friendly.

Beautiful place. The staff us friendly and will help with all your questions. No buy in and rental is month to month with 30 days notice of intent to vacate. Three meals a day with restaurant style approach. Rooms have cook tops with no oven. An oven is available for use in the bistro area.

My late Father moved into Azalea Estates in December of 2020 until December 2022. While he was a resident at Azalea everything was excellent. From the layout of the apartments to the lovely decor throughout the community as well as the Managers and staff to the food in the dining room, this community was stellar. Big thank you to Peter, Mary, Ashley, Wade, Bruce, Matt, Sheila and Ralph for making my Dad's two years here enjoyable ones.

I've worked in communities all over the country similar to this one, but the team that runs this property has everyone beat. From Tampa to Santa Barbara, coast to coast, the vibe here is what other places hope to achieve. An "at home" feel, among friends, and fine dining. They have a LOT of activities and a really good activities director who obviously loves his people. There's even a little putting green and a movie theater! If you want to hang out in a library they have that, as well as a fitness center. It's well decorated, too. Pet friendly Laundry on site.

I have been exploring options for retirement living in the Chapel Hill area and have had a wonderful experience in working with Azalea Estates. Kylie has been very helpful and flexible in this process. And a friend of mine who went to visit there also had very positive things to say about Azalea Estates.

This building is definitely 5 star. Not only is the building brand new, but the mangers Peter and Mary are truly outstanding. All the small details that matter went into this building and it's specifically designed for seniors. Peter and Mary are outstanding in house managers with the insight and experience that truly benefits the residents. You'll have lots of activities options, exercise rooms, movie theater, arts and crafts etc. You can even get additional personal care services at a fraction of the cost of traditional Assisted Living. Get in when you can, because this place is truly 5 star.

Walked through today with my 85 YO mother. We went in and she was calling it a "rest home" we came out and she was calling it a resort. I am not sure she is convinced to leave her house of 45 years, which she needs to for safety reasons, but this certainly helped.

Kylie provided the most incredibly welcoming tour of Azalea Estates including a delicious lunch on arrival. The living space is beautiful and everyone most gracious and friendly. Check out the incredible movie theater with authentic popcorn machine. I wish I was old enough to live there!

Beautiful place that will make life secure for older adults who still want to maintain their independence. Great gift for extended family knowing that their loved one will not be socially isolated. Manager lives in house & available for emergencies.
