The staff at Emeritus has been wonderful! They have included us in the plans for my dad and have made accommodations to meet our individual needs. They have made this transition easy and comfortable for our family. The place is immaculate and decorated to feel like a home not a facility. They make you feel like they care as much for your love one as you do.

There are only about 25 people there so there is more individualized care, and they are able to be more attentive. They also have a larger percentage of men, than most. When you walk in it's very homey, it's not institutionalized, You don't see linoleum everywhere or buckets of mop water. Their attitude toward their patients is wonderful, they tell you not to bring valuables or family heirlooms because they know that the residents like to wander into peoples rooms and see something that catches their eye and they take off with it, this way they are they don't mean to but it happens, this way they don't have to worry or tell them no all the time. They have all kinds of activities for them to do. I came in the other day and they were bowling in the living room. They had somebody from the animal park come and bring some animals in, they let me bring my dog to see him. It was such a good fit for him, it looks a little bit like an old fraternity house. He says he really does like this place. If somebody is looking for a cruise boat kind of experience this is not it. I like the size of the place. It was an old mansion originally, and they haven't cut the rooms up. And when I go in there are people sitting in the dining room having tea or eating and not at just certain times, they are able to be a little more flexible with things like that. You get the feeling they actually know your loved one here.

They are doing a real good job. So far they are trustworthy, that is a switch. They have been very good, no complaints. It's cleaner, my wife didn't smell anything. We are really pleased.

My uncle lives here and i just recently visited him for christmas. This is a very nice place. Everything is pretty new and the staff are plentiful and very kind. Everyone seemed to be having a great time. There are a lot of activities for him to do. We helped decorate the tree in the lobby and then watched a movie together. They have a nice garden outside with a putting green which was cool. hope this helps.

I absolutely love The Cloisters of the Valley, where my aunt has lived now for about two weeks. In that time we have come to know the countless people who work there, who help her in so many ways. She has caregivers, nurses, visiting doctors, a beauty salon, a very helpful handyman, a wonderful executive director and her assistant and the activities director, to name a few. Residents are provided with daily activities, from exercise classes, to live music performances, bible classes and church services, games, slide presentations and many more. I just hope it is still available if/when I need assisted living. She has a lovely private room (about 11X17-one of the "smaller" ones) with a sliding glass door to her patio, and which looks out onto a beautiful garden. Throughout the interior of the building there are gorgeous paintings, furniture and other decor. I've eaten in the dining room and the food was great as was the service.

That place was nice. The people were nice. The openness was very appealing. Food is a big thing and the dining room was upscale and cheerful. That was really nice.

My wife is there and they're doing a fine job for her. It's a lot of money. I was shocked to tell you the truth. I've had my parents in facilities before and I was surprised at how much more expensive they are now but my wife needs a whole lot of care. That part of it is very good. I think the patient care, she needs a lot, and I think they're doing a very fine job of that.

It's a real upscale place. Dad isn't happy there but we're hoping that he'll eventually settle in. They only take 100 people and it's all memory care.

Great place and my loved one are very happy here. In these communities you need to feel very welcome and from what I have seem Vista Gardens is very welcoming and they bend over backwards to accommodate. If you think there is something that shouldn't be they will correct it if needed. The resident seems very happy here. The community is very new only about 1 1/2 years old. They seem like it was built very thoughtfully because the sun just streams into the community very nicely.

They are a big facility where your parent could get lost easily. I'm not necessarily saying that big is a bad thing but in the case of an Alzheimer's patient, I don't need them wandering around. I had special needs so my situation was a little different.

Really nice place. Like that they have in house physical therapy, to help her balance and strength. Apt very clean, new carpet, fresh paint, and even new flooring in the bathroom. Moms going to love it.

I can give them a 5 for cleanliness and friendliness without a second thought! I am cheap so I would always like things to be free so for the value, I'm going to say they did a great evaluation and they're great, but I'm cheap. My aunt just got there. She is somewhat paralyzed so she really can't enjoy the activities as much as I wish she could. I chose the community because it offered all ranges of care. The place is extremely clean and well designed. The food is very good with many, many choices at each sitting. The director was very nice. They do the medical evaluation very quickly - just the physical evaluation needed a little bit more. We want a wheelchair saddle so my aunt doesn't slip out of her chair and a floor mat in case she slips out of bed. She only arrived last Tuesday night so to be honest, they are doing very, very good.

My mom is moving in tomorrow. I know there are places that might me a little nicer, but this is really nice for the money. It's reasonable and comfortable for us to afford. It's clean. There are places that are cleaner but there are places that are a lot worse and they say they're doing some renovations so that might change in the next year. For care, they're giving us the help my mom needs. The have some activities, not a lot. I don't think my mother, in her condition, needs a lot of activities.

Beautiful facility. The atmosphere is friendly and welcome by all the smiles from residents as well as staff. Staff members say hi and introducing themself. As we walk thru the halls residents seem happy to be there. When Maria, Director of the Memory Care, took us to see the area the residents there hug her and asked her if she was coming to stay. Maria's office is right in the middle of the Memory Care area and all the residents seem to be well taken care of by all the staff. Fees are a little on the high but I can see why. Great location and not in the middle of traffic.

I visited this site. I met with director and she showed me around. The staff seemed friendly and attentive. If I can get a room at this place at the time that we need it, this would be my first choice.

Loved this one, but we cannot afford.

Its a very nice facility. The rooms were small but very nice. It has a rehab center there for the residences. Its on a very busy corner just off the freeway. Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Very nice

The tour with Brookdale Oceanside was very good, the staff who gave the tour were wonderful. The atmosphere here was dark and depressing which is why we went with another Brookdale facility that had a totally different feel to it.

The staff members really stood out to us they were just always so friendly.
