Assisted Living with a Pool or Hot Tub in El Cajon, California

"I toured Lantern Crest Senior Living. When we went there it was just almost magical. It was so incredibly beautiful. The staff was just amazing. We just went on this tour and we thought, "Oh my gosh, this is the best place. This is where we want him...."

"I visited the Westmont of La Mesa, and it's the one I like the most. I like their rooms the best. The apartments had appliances and they had a full kitchen and cabinets. The person who gave me the tour was great and she did great. They also have beau..."

"I toured The Montera and I was very impressed with the community itself, their reception of me, and their willingness to talk about anything. They took me around the facility. We toured the dining room and all of the social areas outside. Connie show..."

"Monte Vista Village was very, very nice. I was very happy with the tour. I loved everything. I love the studio the staff showed me, but I think I'm more interested in a one-bedroom. The closets are big. I did meet a few residents, and they were very ..."

"Paradise Village is a nice community. There is lots of parking. It has green grounds park-like settings where you can take your parent out and have a picnic. If they're interested in golf, there's a putting green. If they're interested in swimming on..."

"We toured Belmont Village Sabre Springs. They were generous enough to let us stay for lunch, which was a big and interactive experience. One of the residents invited us into her apartment so Mom could see how people live. It's important to see how pe..."

"I chose Vi at La Jolla Village. It's total care to the end and I won't have to move. I want to get one spot and stay there till I die. It's independent living but it goes into assisted living in the same facility, same building, and same room. You do..."

"The rooms are terrific, the staff uniquely committed and engaged and the food is excellent. My parents went there from Mass, after 55 yrs of marriage with my father as a burned out caregiver for my mother's parkinson's and their admissions/support ..."

"We toured Oakmont of Escondido Hills. It was very nice. The only difference is that the one I'm in now is closer to where my son and his family are. I really like it. It was one of the few that we looked at and it was very clean and spacious and ever..."

"I thought Redwood Terrace was amazing. I liked their core values, and I thought it was just great. They had something like cocktails and conversation and it was like they had some snacks, beverages, cocktails, and mocktails and whatnot. The coordinat..."

"We went to Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea. We were very impressed. We made an appointment for the tour and the gal that took us around was excellent. There are no separate areas. If you go into your independent care and then you find that you're ..."

"Westmont Town Court was much nicer compared to the other places I visited. There was no smell at all in terms of urine smell or anything else. Even though they have carpeting, somehow, they keep it up so that there's no smell. They have like a patio ..."

"I toured Las Villas Del Norte. It's a wonderful place. They don't have any carpeting or anything like that to absorb some of the sound, for my ears I couldn't handle it, but they had just a wonderful time. It is high quality. Everything about it, the..."

"My parents are moving into Brookdale San Marcos. One reason we chose it is that they offer respite care, which is kind of like a temporary situation. The other factor is the staff there is just amazing, super nice, and very accommodating. Everyone we..."

"My mother has been at Monterey Trellis for years and we couldn't be more happy since she is happy and very content with the life that she enjoys.. Our father passed away back in 2009, so it is a great relief to have the same folks that took care of ..."

"Our tour at Covenant Living at Mount Miguel was very good. We enjoyed it. The staff was very nice and very attentive. The facility is OK (not super, but they're fine). The rooms were pretty good. They were pretty nice, fresh, and comfortable. They of..."

"The most important factor to me in finding a place for my elderly friend was the staff. I don’t care how beautiful a place is or how great a view the apartments have if the staff are not caring and attentive too all the needs of the residents it’s w..."

"Wesley Palms San Diego Retirement Community was nice, but they didn't have anything available. They had a mile track around the property, which my father likes. But if he needed more assisted living, he'll have to move to another building. Everybody ..."

"I chose The Remington Club for my mom because it's closest to my house and the price is right. They kind of offer everything. I liked it because they had some rooms that had doors to the outside, not only to the hallway inside, but doors to the outsi..."

"It is a fantastic community. It's beautiful, it's new, bright, and very well-laid out. The person who gave us the tour, Bailey, was very energetic, knowledgeable, and courteous. She did a great job. We got to enjoy lunch there, and it was very nice...."
