Assisted Living Communities in Kapolei, HI

"My father will be moving into Hale O Meleana. It was a really nice place. I liked the layout of the rooms. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about senior living. The rooms were very nice. They showed the common areas and the dining area. They had a beautiful courtyard. My mom really liked the food. They have transportation and laundry services, but the apartments just had a microwave and a refrigerator. The place was very well-maintained."

"enjoyed the visit. food was excellent-and tailored toward the older population. the facilities were clean and bright. "

"Kalakaua Gardens is a good facility right in town. It offers every level of care from independent down to totally dependent. The dining area is beautiful. The menu was quite nice. It had very nice choices and things like that. They had PT and OT. The staff was very nice and was a lot of very young people. The common areas were very beautiful all throughout. They have quite a few areas and smaller little sitting areas. Everything is self-contained in the building. They have a patio and things, but the other places had a yard and things like that."

"I visited Manoa Cottage, and it was good. The staff was very helpful. "

"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. "

"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."

"I have acquaintances that are at Good Samaritan Society Pohai Nani, and so I just went with them as their guest over a year ago. Overall, it's a pretty good place. They were a casual place. They have facilities for everything, like for exercising, swimming, certain classes, and trips that you can go on the bus to wherever you need to go. Also, they have scheduled meal times. There were just a couple of things that I was not real fond of, but that's just me. One of them is that they have a dress code when going to meals. To me, it's a little much because I prefer a more casual approach to dining. It is just a minor thing. They have an area for people who become ill. It's almost like a hospital area, where they have nursing staff and doctors that come in. The problem is it's very limited and a lot of the people that are in there are Alzheimer's residents. It tends to fill up. If that's one of the things I would have been counting on, it would be something that was a problem for me. Their apartments were a comfortable size, assuming it's for a single person. They have actual little apartments, separate for a husband and wife. They'd be in their own little home. They have kitchen facilities and a separate bedroom. They're not just kind of a big open room with everything in it, and I liked that better. The staff was very nice and very helpful too. The people there were mostly local people. A lot of them were acquainted with each other because they're about the same age. It's a pretty friendly place overall. The dining area was very nice as well. The food was pretty standard, but it's very good food. However, they just have the same menu every week."

"Dignity Senior Living at Oceanside was in a very nice setting. The facility was nice, spacious, and clean. There were daily activities and meals, and they take them to doctor visits, but mostly they would prefer to use their in-house medical services because the doctors would be in town, which would be an hour's drive. The coordinator who showed us around and the RN who came and interviewed Mom were very cordial and very professional. If the place was in an area where the family could visit, it would be our first choice."

"Wilson Senior Living has all facets of care from Independent Living to 24 hours Nursing Care. I visited this facility and was really impressed with the high standard of living they have maintained. They strive to create a home-like atmosphere where you and your loved ones can feel secure. The warm, well-trained staff works closely with the residents to provide the utmost care and comfort. The facility was always clean and well lit, with plenty of staff around. During one of my visits I saw numerous seniors attending a seminar, which seemed to be about current events. Nearby Hospitals include Castle Medical Center, Hawaii Medical Center East and Kaiser Permanente Moanalua Medical Center and Clinic. There is an oversized elevator accessible from each floor as well as two carpeted stairwells. The facility offers all kind of assisted living facilities at much cheaper rates. The lush green environment offers a real natural environment full of love and peace. The pets are also allowed inside the facility which is a good news for pet lovers. Awesome place to live. "

"My father moved into Kina 'ole Estate Elima, Ltd. So far, it's so good. I think he's adjusted well to the location. The decision came down to the size of the facility. My father didn't want a lot of people. They only have eight residents that they're caring for. It's all kinds of care. He's taking his medicine every day, eating every day, drinking properly, and getting some exercise. It's been good. The staff members are excellent. It's all private rooms. They have a small yard and a walkway that walks around the perimeter. They have a small fish pond. The residents can go outside, which has a tropical feel to it. The living area has a bunch of chairs, a large TV, and small dining tables. They have a schedule of activities every day. It varies depending on the schedule posted on a monthly calendar. My father eats three meals a day, and he wasn't always doing that while living on his own. It's ideal for the type of care that my father needs."

"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."
