"I can’t commend Laguna Estates enough. They moved in my mom at the peak of Covid (May 2020) and they made her feel so welcome. The entire staff has been so friendly and attentive. My mom passed this last Tuesday and everyone has been incredible. Comp..."

"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 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 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..."

"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 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..."

"My husband moved to Oakmont of Escondido Hills. They're very attentive. It's clean. It's fun, lots of nice people, and he's made good friends. The dining hall is fabulous. The meals, everything, just no complaints. They have physical therapy for him ..."

"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..."

"Seacrest Village at Encinitas Leichtag Foundation Campus provides exceptional support. They have the whole spectrum of care. We are in independent living right now, but in the future, the care we need is right here on the campus. The staff is very we..."

"We liked Meridian at Lake San Marcos. It was probably the best of the places we looked at. It had a lot of amenities, plus it was a lively and fun place to visit. Some of the places seemed a little somber and darker, so we enjoyed the atmosphere ther..."

"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...."

"I toured Carlsbad by the sea and it was my favorite. The food is excellent, it’s just a lovely place, and it’s right by the ocean. I even signed up for it, but I backed out, because it was very expensive. It had everything. They have an outdoor and i..."

"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..."
