Assisted Living Communities in Honolulu, HI

"The Plaza at Waikiki was very expensive but very nice. The apartments were nice. Everything was nice. The staff was very friendly. Everything went well. The food was very bland, though. The residents looked happy and not bored because it's in a resort area. It's a very nice community, and we're quite impressed with it. The thing that was so impressive was the barbecue area. It was very nice. The dining area was nice, nothing exceptional. What I didn't like about the apartments was that you couldn't open the windows. The people were really nice and very accommodating. The rooms were well designed and there was more closet space."

"Hale O Meleana was new and pretty. Everybody seemed very nice. It was very, very quiet. They kind of emphasize resident privacy. We thought it would be better for somebody who was maybe able to get around a little bit more on their own. It was clean. The staff was nice, informative, and very friendly. They had classes and outings and an outdoor courtyard. Overall, it was very nice. It was just very expensive, not somewhere that we would put our mom, just because it didn't fit her."

"My aunt is living in Manoa Senior Care. They’re very family friendly, and it was the right fit for my aunt. For activities, they work with the school and the students come in and work with the seniors. The residents stay in the community-based care homes. The food is home-made cooking, they get it fresh from the local farmers."

"As I toured the facility, it was quite evident that I was the youngest person there so although it was very nice, for now, I have decided to stay at home."

"Good Samaritan Society-Pohai Nani is beautifully landscaped and beautifully maintained. It's renovated regularly and repainted. They're taking care of the place well. It's incredibly beautiful to look at. It's cool and windy. We have nice people here. They are just casual. I have friends coming to join me from inside to eat our lunch. Lunch today has choices of several things. Also, we have an art studio, a theater, exercise classes nonstop, and a floor with a mirror for dance classes. We got it all."

"The staff at Aiea Heights Senior Living is really good. We didn't get to see my mother's room though. We weren't allowed in because of COVID, but she says it's clean, and she's happy she has her own room. They don't really have amenities there that are usable right now. There is an outdoor area, but they don't get to go out and use it right now. She doesn't like the food. She said it doesn't have any taste and I think it's just because they have to be low salt and low fat and everything else. They have an activities/recreation person there. I think they've done arts and crafts, and I know they do a lot of exercises. Sometimes, they have people that come up and do some ukulele group/singing entertainment, but they have to stay outside, so they all gather by the front door and the entertainers would be entertaining outside in front of the window. There's a nice living area with a nice view, but there's not much else for them right now because they can't really go out anywhere. It's mostly just the living area that they go to, and their own room. Communication has been good, anytime she's needed anything they'd give us a call, or text me, or let me know. Sometimes they let me know that she needs more medications at the last minute. She likes the staff. The staff has been very nice to her, so she really enjoys being with them."

"Kina 'ole Estate Elima is a beautiful estate. It's very spacious and open. It's totally designed for taking up to eight residents there. Each resident has their own room, and their own bath and shower, which is very large. They also have activities that they schedule throughout the day, anything from arts and crafts, to hula, to games. They also go on excursions. They cook all their own food there for the residents. Visitors are allowed. The residents we talked to were extremely happy and even wanted to share their rooms with us so we could see. It's designed for wide open spaces and activities. The staff members are all caring and kind. With regards to food, they cater to not just a set menu, they are able to adjust for the residents."

"Lunalilo Home was very charming. I'm local. They have more local people, and workers were involved with the Kupunas. I really liked that. I found that it was a more family feeling place. They showed me where their dining hall was and their cultural hall. The people were all there. They were doing exercises. They showed the walking facilities and places like that. They were doing chair yoga or chair exercises. It was an older place."

"Wilson Senior Living is a beautiful facility. The staff and food are great; they actually have an on-site chef in a beautiful kitchen where you can watch the chef cook. They have their own salon, and you can pretty much do anything there. My mom was only there for three days during the day, not overnight."

"My mom is in Legacy Villa. The food is not very good, so I have to bring her food. It is just that it has ethnic food that she does not like. They are giving nutritious meals, but it is not the kind of food she likes. The rooms are very nice, and the staff is good. "

"The least I like about Ilima at Leihano is the cost. They had a salon, a nice big courtyard, and a swimming pool. They offer activities throughout the day. The salesperson was very thorough and answered all my questions. The facility was really clean. There are restaurants and parks nearby. What I liked about this place, which was a selling point, was that they allowed pets."

"My mom has moved into Dignity Senior Living at Oceanside. It is a wonderful place. They take very good care of my mom. It is really well run. My visits are very good. The nurses are very kind and considerate. It is great; it is wonderful. They have arts and crafts, painting, jewelry making, movie nights, and shopping. They have a bus that takes them to town to go shopping. They take them to the hairdresser, and they have manicures and pedicures. They have everything going on there. I wouldn't mind moving there. The nurses are lovely. The dining room is very nice, very clean, and lovely. If you're local, the food is great. They have lots of everything. The place is immaculate; it is very clean."
