The facility was unbelievably clean. When residents were down for meals, the staff would pop in and tidy up, clean up the room. The staff was professional, but friendly. Being a smaller facility, it made the resident and us feel like family. The food was very good. Our friend did not like the regimented times for the meals. But we understood the reasoning. It is an 85 yr old bldg, but has the feel of walking into an old hotel. The screened in porched has a beautiful view of Phillips Park golf course. Nice to sit out there for fresh air.

Couldn't be happier
We could not be happier with the care our friend is getting. The staff is wonderful. The nurse/administrator is a true angel. It is an older building, but it is beautiful and clean!!!! Like walking in to an old hotel. The porch has a beautiful, view of the local golf course. A great place to relax. Our friend's needs are meet with great care.

Review for Sunnymere
The staff has gone above expectations on the care for my Dad. It feels like home and not senior community/assisted living. The communication has been seamless, and the staff is so responsive. They stay on top of everything from medication refills, doctor appointments, transportation, and personal needs. I highly recommend Sunnymere to anyone who needs care and a place to live.

[name removed] and [name removed] are amazing! Both helped us in our dire time of need. The faculty is nice, charming, and always willing to help. We like the daily cleaning schedule of the room. When we are unable to get a hold of our loved one, we call the main number, and they are always so kind in assisting us with reminding our loved one to charge her phone. We definitely recommend Sunnymere to anyone looking for supportive living.

We chose Sunnymere because it was more reasonably priced. When we looked into the facility online it had a five star rating with a 2 star price, so we liked that. The room sizes here are adequate for the needs. The best part about the community was the love and support from the staff members, you can tell they really do care. We had a great experience with this community.

Lovely place !! I really like the staff and residents. Very open and friendly. I would have to discuss with my mom if having to share the restroom would be a deal breaker and having the showers down the hall. But it’s on the list as a good choice.

I met with [name removed] today. Had a great talk. I really like Sunnymere. The three residents I spoke with were very helpful and I could not only see my grandmother living there but I could see her being friends with these ladies. I feel like I should look at other places - but I got such a good vibe from Sunnymere I think it might be her new Home. I'll look st the other two websites and see if it is worth a visit or not.

This is a hidden gem with great views of the golf course. The people living there seemed very happy and were friendly towards my mom. She lives in Aurora but I'd like her closer to me, otherwise, this would have been our pick for her as it is close to where I grew up and close to Copley for medical appointments. I will tell others who ask that it was warm and inviting - I just wish it was close to me and my kids,

Accommodating staff!!
My loved one has been at this community two separate times for short stays and both times she was very satisfied with how things went. I was very comfortable with the quality of care the staff provided her and had a peace of mind that she was in good hands during her stay. We are going to be moving her in permanently here shortly and we are really looking forward to it.

Friendly staff, residents and homey atmosphere
My grandmother moved in here and she likes it a lot! I'm really glad we chose this community for her. She's winning a lot of BINGO! She talks about the food all the time. We chose them because the environment had a homey and good feel. The residents are very diverse and have a lot more female residents. So far we are pleased with our choice.

Review of Sunnymere - Aurora, IL
The facility is small, quiet, and charming. The grounds are beautiful. It is very small housing, less than 30 residents currently. Our concerns were safety in Tornado and fire situations. We didn't feel that our mom would be able to climb the stairs in an emergency. It is a very old building.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Illinois regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Illinois regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Sunnymere 9.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
