I'm writing this review on behalf of my aunt, who has been a resident at Westminster Palms for over five years. She lives in independent living and absolutely loves the community and surrounding area. The transportation services make it easy for her to get where she needs to go, and she attends daily workout classes, which she really enjoys. She also raves about the food! We truly can't recommend Westminster Palms enough.

Westminster Palms is the perfect community in the perfect location. We are right across from the Bay with a beautiful waterside park and beach. Most apartments have a view of the water. And we are just a stone’s throw from downtown restaurants and museums. The Palms has a warm and friendly environment where residents and staff plan and enjoy activities together. There is always plenty to do - physical activities, lectures, special dining, volunteer opportunities, trips, and so much more. But you can always plan your own quiet time. I moved here 10 years ago with no local friends or family. I was instantly befriended and included. That is the typical experience here at the Palms.

Great Place to Live!! My husband and I moved to Westminster Palms four years ago into an Independent Living apartment with stunning views. We are delighted with our decision. Why? Beautiful downtown setting near Tampa Bay, short walk to Beach Drive restaurants, the Pier, and waterfront walking/bicycle path. Excellent food, incredible leadership and staff. Extensive activities & exercise/yoga options plus bus trips to restaurants, the Arts plus day trips out of town. And great neighbors!

Each meal is thoughtfully prepared, offering a variety of delicious options that cater to different tastes and dietary needs. My husband has enjoyed every bite! The activities at Westminster Palms are engaging and varied, providing residents with countless opportunities to socialize and stay active. Whether it’s arts and crafts, exercise classes, or movie nights, there’s always something happening that brings joy and fosters a sense of community. We’re also grateful for the lovely room that overlooks the dog park and baseball fields. The view is not only beautiful but also uplifting, allowing my husband to enjoy the sights and sounds of the outdoors from the comfort of his room. Overall, I cannot recommend Westminster Palms highly enough. The combination of exceptional care, great food, fun activities, and a wonderful environment makes it a truly special place for our loved ones.
