Royal Megansett Nursing & Rehabilitation Description
Royal Megansett Nursing & Retirement Home is the crown jewel of the Royal family, the first property purchased by James Mamary when he started his company in 1997. And what a property it is! Royal Megansett sits on a bluff in North Falmouth overlooking Megansett Harbor and Buzzards Bay beyond. Originally an elegant seaside hotel, Megansett retains the charm of that era with an impressive “great room” upon entry, and sweeping views of the water beyond a beautifully manicured lawn. Megansett boasts 28 private rooms, and its third floor apartments are dedicated to assisted living residents who enjoy the best views in the building, and a restful, homelike environment, allowing residents to relax and maintain their lifestyle among friends and devoted caregivers.

Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Many reviews highlight the love, kindness, and dedication of the staff at the facility, with particular praise for the long-term commitment of the Director of Nurses and the overall team. The views and the facility itself are described as outstanding and beautiful, contributing to a warm and welcoming atmosphere for both residents and new employees.
However, opinions on the quality of care and services provided are mixed. Some reviewers express gratitude for the exceptional care and compassion shown to their family members, noting that the staff treats residents like family and that the facility offers a sense of extended family to those under its care. The location, overlooking Megansett Harbour, is also highlighted for its calming effect, and the facility is recommended for its friendly staff, complete menu, and well-prepared food.
On the other hand, there are concerns regarding the quality of food, with reports of meals consisting of canned soup and toasted cheese sandwiches, which were not only unappetizing but also potentially problematic for residents with dietary restrictions. Additionally, one review describes the facility as "a wolf in sheep's clothing," suggesting a discrepancy between appearances and the actual quality of care.
Despite these criticisms, many reviews recommend the facility for its great staff, phenomenal service, excellent facilities, and the compassionate and caring nature of the team. The retirement apartments are praised as a valuable option for seniors seeking independence with a little extra care. The overall sentiment is that this is a highly recommended facility for those looking for kind, caring, and effective care for their loved ones.
