The Goldton at Lake Nona

I attended a Meet & Greet at The Goldton and was really impressed with the direction the community is taking under new management. They shared updates about the Speak2 system coming soon, which will help prioritize response times, improve staff-resident interaction, and make it easy for residents to ask about daily activities and menus. I also love that I’ll even be able to talk to my mom through it. There’s a clear focus on updating spaces, listening to family and resident feedback on activities, and improving the overall resident experience. Nichole, the Executive Director, is very present and accessible, which says a lot about the leadership and culture here. My family and I are excited about what’s ahead and are looking forward to the re-grand opening event.

The Goldton has been a wonderful place for dad. The staff and the attention to each resident is the best we have found in the area. They truly care about each resident and the staff is incredibly responsive and available whenever we have had questions. The concierge, Johnny, is always there to answer questions and keeps everyone smiling. It’s an incredibly welcoming community and the facilities and activities are top-notch.

My family is incredibly grateful for the care and compassion we’ve experienced at Somerby Lake Nona. My mother is in the memory care facility, and my father resides in the independent living community — and we truly could not be happier with the level of support they’re both receiving, physically, mentally, and emotionally. As caregivers, this has been a major transition for our family. I had to learn how to separate being a daughter from being a caregiver, and my father had to navigate the difficult journey of separating the role of husband from caregiver. The team at Somerby has embraced each of us — not just my parents, but our entire family — with an incredible amount of patience, empathy, and love. The facilities are pristine, the staff is consistently compassionate and responsive, and there’s a clear commitment to the well-being of every resident. From the thoughtfully planned activities to the nutritional care and personalized attention, every detail is handled with care and professionalism. We toured multiple locations in both New York and Florida, and Somerby stood out by far. It’s rare to find a place so well-run and warm — and for anyone exploring the next step for their loved ones, Somerby Lake Nona is an absolute must-see.
