Innovation and newness are a hallmark of life at Port Credit Residences. This was one of the first GTA communities to employ the Brain Gym program, which helps train seniors in improving their memory and handling stress. The program even throws in some physical exercise. The availability of the community's nurse practitioner was also a Toronto first, when the building opened in 2011. Visiting "therapy dogs" are one more aspect of life at Port Credit Residences that make this community stand out.

I want to thank Katherine Mayers and her team for a wonderful tour. What a great building, offering all levels of care, and the food is amazing.

Our family had a tremendous customer-service experience with Aysha and the rest of the team at The Shores. Aysha has been extremely patient & kind as our Mother struggled to decide where to move. In the end, Mom decided she wants to stay in Etobicoke, and we hope she will land somewhere equally warm & welcoming.

My mother and I went for a tour recently at Port Credit Shores, and we absolutely loved it! The facility itself is very well kept with modern yet elegant touches throughout. As we walked through the recreational areas, I almost felt as though I was at an all-inclusive high-end resort! Residents seemed refreshed, happy, and at ease. Those we had an opportunity to speak with had only great things to say. The several activities offered allow residents to live an active lifestyle and nurture relationships. Katherine, who is the Community Relations Manager we had the pleasure of dealing with, was very informative and helpful. Residents seemed to gravitate toward her warm energy and positive presence. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would highly consider this home for my parents!

Moving into the apartments was quick and easy. The staff was very helpful and courteous. I'm all settled and comfortable here.

Wow, what an incredible place to have your loved one live! I was looking for my mom and was so impressed with Shores! It was absolutely beautiful, but more importantly, every person I came into contact with were amazing. In particular, Bradley was a tremendous help to me in providing answers to all my questions and really going above and beyond to help me with my decision. You can tell he is a genuine person who really cares about helping you find the best fit for your loved one. Ultimately, I decided on a place closer to mine and my sister’s homes that may fit her needs better in the future, but it was such a difficult decision! Thank you, Bradley, and every other gem I came into contact with at Shores of Port Credit!

The Mother’s Day brunch was lovely. I ate items I would not have normally chosen and enjoyed them tremendously. The food, staff, and establishment are all top-notch. Thank you :)

I have dined with my Mum and Dad on numerous occasions. The staff is wonderful and flexible with meal requests. Kirollos has done a wonderful job, especially given dietary and budget limitations and residents’ critiques.

Port Credit Residences has been life-changing for our family. My mom is hard to get on the phone because she is always attending an event, an exercise class, a painting class, going to the theatre to watch a movie, playing Mexican train - she is SO busy!!! And most importantly, she is so happy. Which means we are too. We attended the Mother's Day Brunch, and I am still full! What a delicious meal and obviously carefully considered and prepared. I always enjoy coming to the residence to see my mom, and she is thriving.

My loved ones came to Port Credit Residences for the Mother’s Day brunch. The facility was clean, and the staff was very welcoming. My family told me I missed out on an incredible meal hosted in the dining room. They said the Head Chef put on a spectacular show, Margaret was warm and welcoming to my family, and Jackie was exceptionally sweet and kind. Thank you so much for making the day so amazing and memorable for my family.

I had the pleasure of staying at Port Credit Residences for a 10-week Respite stay, recovering from major surgery. The staff and management were all very friendly and inviting, and the facilities and amenities were very clean. The Residence has a very large gym and a swimming pool that really helped with my recovery. The dining room is very upscale and clean, and food was great and had lots of variety. Overall, I had a great experience and highly recommend.
