Sunshine Retirement Living LLC

This would be the best place for my parents, but the cost is too high. Everyone seems friendly. Residents appeared that they liked it there. A red flag raised up while we were leaving. I asked a resident if he likes living here, and he stated 'I would be careful'

We found the managers (the Marlowes) to be warm and helpful. My mom-in-law, who is a very picky eater, likes the food!

This is a wonderful place! The residents are great and have been there for a long time and they seem to really enjoy thier life style. It's a good choice for someone who wants some independence but also needs social activities

Nice & clean. Very large & open community spaces. Some apartments have an interior front door with a back door to the courtyard. Others have the front door in the courtyard and a patio/private yard door. Less expensive due to no health care.

Nice community. Very friendly. Staff available to answer questions. Managers live on site. CONS: Location. Hot weather. Third party sourced out for residential additional needs.

This was the location we selected for my loved one, and we're pleased with it. It's a nice looking place, it is an older building but they obviously take very good care of it. I liked how it was a single floor, I didn't want my loved one to have to worry about stairs or elevators. The staff were very knowledgeable and knew just the right questions to ask to be able to provide more personal care. They were much more flexible in terms of their care philosophy than other communities we looked at.

They had great food, fantastic food! It was a nice place, it used to be an old hotel, it's like 5 stories, and they have 2 actual chefs. The dining room is just beautiful and seats like 130 people. It's independent living, not assisted living. They are a good group of people over there.

Value is pretty good. My mom is living there, and she has been pretty happy with them. She goes to the YMCA three times a week for swimming and she likes that quite a bit. I like that they seem to be very attentive and know all the residents. She has a washer and dryer in her room, which was a big plus. She's in independent living and she gets three meals a day, but doesn't always go down and actually eats them. She doesn't particularly like the food, and that is her one complaint.

I thought this place was nice. They tried several times to get us to come and try the food. Apparently they heard about the food not being so great at other places and they were bragging about how good their food was. We never got a chance to try it though because my mom didn't want to be in Ogden.

Harrison Regent was a little older. They were nice but I liked a few other facilities a little better. If my mom decided she was going to live in Ogden we probably would have gone with Harrison Regent but she decided she wanted to stay in Salt Lake. We liked the availability and the cost and the professionalism of the staff. I was very impressed with that.

I hate to be negative but when my mom first moved in we had some issues with maintenence, like to get the orders done. She had a problem getting the cable hooked up and Dunwoody is responsible for that because cable is included in the rent. I haven't eaten in the dining facility but twice and that was when we were first looking but she has had some complaints. When you ask for something that's different from what they're serving, it takes them a very long time to get it out. Her and the people who sit at her table have actually left without getting anything because it's taken so long to get it out. They do have a management meeting, they have had meetings with the residents, I think twice since my mom has been there and that has been brought up but I don't know if they're doing anything about it. They were competitively priced compared to a lot of other places and they do offer assistance on an a la carte basis and you pay extra for that but they offer it in house.

My Dad is really the one living here. I visit every couple of weeks. Clean place. Lots of activities. Nice people running the place.

Every one is very friendly and residents do what they can to make you feel welcome.

Looks lovely. Located outside perimeter. Walkability?

This came in a real close second. the people were very friendly and very nice, the facilities were very nice. It was larger which is not really what we were looking for and we felt it was also a little remote so if you didn't have a car or if they didn't do transportation, you we're going anywhere. We did take my dad to see it though and he liked it.

The only reason I give them a four is because getting them moved in was very difficult because they only have one elevator and it was very tiny and you could only use it at certain times. But since then I think it's been pretty good, they seem to like t but I think it's too far away from family and they say they don't get to see family enough. They like going to dinner, but they're old, they're in their 90s. They like the food, I haven't heard anything bad about it and I think the care is fairly good because they have somebody that comes in and vacuums once a week and someone that changes the linens and they can hire a girl to come in for 13 dollars to do their laundry every week.

This is more independent living and they did not feel comfortable in my dad wife living there because she needed more assistance in getting around the place.

I saw 4 places and Las Brisas was the nicest of the places. The cost is not cheap but they cover everything - food, clothes, laundry, meals. We weren't even here yet and they invited us to come for Mother's Day brunch and they had lobster and some other things. It was very nice. I don't know about the activities. They haven't had too many. It's a very nice place. I only have good things to say.

It is a wonderful community. My loved one really likes living here. They have a really nice dining area with some good food. The staff is very friendly and they have lots of activities for the resident who wishes to participate. They are conveniently located for me. They seem to really care about the residents. They involve the families as best as they can and even allow you to volunteer. They do need to update the carpet in the hallway and they could also use more exercise equipment. But overall it is a very good community that we are pleased with and would recommend to anyone.
