Review

The Moorings at Lewes is a highly regarded and relatively new assisted living facility that exudes an upscale charm. Located in an affluent area, the community boasts larger and newer accommodations, but with these distinctions comes a higher price point. The monthly cost reflects the exclusivity of the location and the luxurious offerings provided to residents. During a tour of the facility, it became evident that private rooms were preferred by many, including one individual who expressed a clear preference for such accommodation for his wife.

The dining area at The Moorings also garnered praise for its elegance. With its hotel-like ambiance, it created an inviting atmosphere where residents could enjoy their meals comfortably.
