I toured Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea. The staff was wonderful on the tour. The thing I liked least was the price, but everything else was good. They had a library, a gym, and game rooms. They had classes and all of those things were very appealing. The staff was knowledgeable. They can answer all your questions. They were able to give you a really good tour and a feel of the community there. We had lunch there, but the food was bland. It's hard to eat and it was not good.

We went to Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea. We were very impressed. We made an appointment for the tour and the gal that took us around was excellent. There are no separate areas. If you go into your independent care and then you find that you're going to need memory care, you stay right in there and they bring the memory care people to you. You can get a studio or one-bedroom, or you can even get a two-bedroom. They had a gorgeous swimming pool. The staff sat with us first and went over things, and then she gave us a booklet to bring home to look at more, so she was wonderful.

My parents chose Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea. They're on a waiting list. The first impression was positive because, when my brother and I walked in, we didn't feel like we were walking into a hospital setting. It was a very open entry, like an upscale hotel. It had a concierge desk. It was very airy and bright. They had upscale furniture. People were there, talking, laughing, and reading. It was the first place we saw where there were people conversing and having a good time. They had a beautiful dining room right off the entry, where they have a chef and sous chef. The menu changes. If my parents choose to have a fixed menu, they also have that option. It is built in a rectangular shape so that if my mother gets lost with her memory issues, she won't get lost very far. I like that the hallways are very wide, open, and lit. It was an extremely clean place. Everything was beautifully cared for. The tour personnel sat down with us, discussed finances, and discussed my mother's situation and the care that they could give her. They have up to 7 hours a day of care for memory people to slow the degradation of their mental capacity. The activities change all the time. It's very enriching, from games to crafts. The apartments were spacious. The two-bedroom apartment is a little over 1000 square feet, which my parents are waiting for. It comes with all the appliances. If you need to go to assisted care, the only things that are removed are the stove and oven. They had a pool and a rec room. My dad was thrilled that they had a very nice library. They had an area that they called their sports room. It had a big screen where they showed all the games live.

Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea was fine. It was new and clean, but not what I was looking for. The director was very, very nice. She was helpful. It was just not what I was looking for. I didn't feel comfortable. The environment wasn't appealing to me. I saw two people sitting on chairs in the reception area. They were very elderly. The staff was really good. It looked clean and well-kept.

Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea is one building, so I have seen the independent living and also the assisted living; they're the same apartments but just have different services. It is a sunny, open, cheerful place, and it's welcoming. I visited a one-bedroom apartment of about, goodness, seven or eight hundred square feet. It's very well designed and laid out with a large open living and dining area, with a bedroom to the side. It's fully equipped with a small but usable kitchenette and washer and dryer. It was very good. I especially liked the floor plan; it was not chopped up into small units. It was open, which was very nice and flexible. The one who assisted me during the tour was Therese or Theresa. She was a fine representative, very informative, and candid about what they had to offer. And what was attractive to me is the experience for the independent and assisted living people to be integrated. They do not put the assisted living people off in a facility of their own, but with different dining and different activities, it's all the same. It just simply differs in what services are provided in the rooms, and Therese was very good in explaining that. I didn't eat there, but I saw the dining area, and it's a pleasant, open place. I looked at the menu, and frankly, it's pretty typical of some of the places I've seen. As far as the types of food, they have salmon and the pasta every day available, and then there are various interesting sounding meals daily. I observed the calendar of activities and excursions, field trips that they offer, which were varied and attractive. It's very very nice, and as reflected on the price, it's one of the most expensive ones.

I went to Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea and I loved it. I just can't afford it. It was lovely. I liked it very much. I got to see one lady's apartment and it was the smallest size. The apartment was a little bit too small for me, but I probably could have done it. I couldn't do anything because I still haven't sold my house, but I like the place because it had nice wide hallways, was very bright, and had light colors. I talked to several residents just passing by, and everybody was so friendly. The tour guides were very wonderful, too. I was really impressed with the place. I didn't try the food that day, but the dining area was very nice. I thought they had it arranged that everything was spaced out accordingly to the Covid situation. I think they did a very good job. It was very well organized. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. It looked perfect. I'm hoping for a miracle because I would love to move there. I really felt very comfortable there. It's one of the few places that I felt strongly about truly. I just really enjoyed it.

We found Belmont Village for my aunt. So far, it's working out well, except that she doesn't understand why she's in quarantine, but that was kinda predictive. They're great, super helpful. It's very nice, pretty good, and most of the rooms that I saw were about the same size. The studio fit her queen size bed perfectly and some other furniture. She's mentioned that food is good. I haven't tried it myself. I don't know, but she really likes it. They have a lot of stuff that she hasn't been able to participate in any of that yet, so I don't really know. They have a swimming pool, several courtyards, and an outdoor garden area that felt very nice.

We went to Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea. The location is not very appealing to me. It was OK, but nothing special. There was a one-bedroom that was bigger than the rest, but nothing special. You had to go to the bedroom to get to the bathroom, and I didn't like that. The facility is not in a pretty area.

Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea was wonderful and very clean. They sent me something in the mail to go to a seminar. I went to that and was treated extremely well. They had these wonderful cookies and ice cream. Afterward, I had a really good tour of the independent living. It's like a 5-star hotel but really expensive.

Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea had the more interesting lectures for me. For a Saturday morning activity, they were all around and playing a word game. It was one of those things that you can do as a group. It would have been fun for me. It’s right off of a freeway, so to me, there’s nowhere to walk. You can look across the street and see nature, grass, and trees. It’s an old building, but they’ve done it over beautifully. The furniture was really interesting, and they put a lot of money and time into the surroundings and the building itself. They had a little coffee bar which was very cute, but it was more expensive, and I liked it the least. It was more money for less as far as I’m concerned, and there was hardly anybody around. Nobody looked that happy.

Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea was very nice and very suitable for us. It would be fine. The activities were all good. Their pricing was about the same as other places, though they are a buy-in. It looked satisfactory to us.

This facility is nice. We also love the couple who plays for the happy hour. I think their group name is The Musicstation. They are the best of all the entertainers who plays for happy hour.

We liked Belmont. It was near her friends, and they had a special program for people with early dementia. The people were great. I would recommend this place.

Belmont Village Cardiff by the Sea was very large. They had a lot of facilities that would not be used by my parents and they were very expensive. They had a swimming pool and a huge exercise room, and it was more institutionalized. They were about $2000 to $3000 a month more than the other places. They had a saleslady that took me around and she did a good job.

Belmont Village Cardiff was fabulous, and they have everything you could possibly imagine. They even have a swimming pool; however the rate for a room which is actually smaller than the one she has chosen with the other facility was twice the amount almost. I can certainly appreciate the fees because of the services and the amenities that they have.

Belmont takes pride in all they do! From the care they give to their own residents, to the local communities. I have sent many of my patients to reside there over the years and have heard nothing but positive reviews from all. Take a tour and you will see first hand why they are so amazing!

We have just begun to look at communities and Belmont Village will definitely stay on the list of places to seriously consider. The amenities provided at this community are outstanding -- they even have a mobile physician service, and are quite creative about the outings and programs offered, such as a series of lectures by retired professionals. The décor is nice, the whole place feels warm and inviting and spacious. It was so nice to see photos of the veterans who were among the first residents. They actually have 1 bedroom apartments in small, medium, and large sizes. All are beautifully laid out with plenty of closet space and even washer/dryers! The kitchenettes have stove, oven, sink and full refrigerator

Belmont Village had both facilities for senior and assisted. The place was very pleasant. It also had a small community feel that I liked. The location was right for me and it would be easy for friends and relatives to visit. They had several different sizes and prices of rooms. They had dual rooms for assisted living and senior living. They had three different types of apartments for senior living. I liked that I had a choice of what I would want. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was quite good. They had a gym for the senior living and an exercise program for the assisted living.

My first visit to Belmont village was a Hawaiian themed Luau. Their were quite a few people there with live acts such as hula dancers. The food was good, not 5 star but it was definitely something I could eat everyday and better then my university cafe. My second visit was for a thanksgiving day lunch. The service was very good for this event, lots of waiters going around keeping their eye on water as well as providing good clearing services. The food was again fine, I expected it too be a little bit better quality then it was but the food wasn't that bad, and they probably served something better later so I didn't really get bothered by that. My third event was for easter and it was much less serious than thanksgiving. Less employees working about and it was a brunch as well. Overall my experiences at Belmont have all been great and each time has been satisfying. I know my Grandmother is receiving all the care she needs for her Alzheimer's.
