Overall Review of Residential Plaza at Blue Lagoon

Reasonable pricing comes through
Cost is described as reasonable, and pricing appears slightly below regional benchmarks.
Several reviewers say the community is worth the money or priced reasonably, and they felt it compared well with what they expected when choosing a place for a loved one. The listing pricing also runs just a few percent below county and state levels across the unit types shown. A couple of families also connected that value to the overall care they received after move-in.
