How much does Tuscan Gardens of Delray Beach cost?

Tuscan Gardens of Delray Beach does not publish rates on its state record, and we do not quote facility prices. CareScout's 2025 survey puts Florida's median for a private one-bedroom in assisted living at $66,000 a year, about $5,500 a month.

The AHCA profile lists no Medicaid program, so plan on private pay, long-term care insurance or VA benefits. Florida's Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Long-Term Care program (SMMC LTC) can pay for services in an assisted living facility that contracts with the resident's plan, but not for room and board; see the SMMC LTC guide.
