The Best Senior Living Communities in Los Altos, CA

"I toured The Forum at Rancho San Antonio. It's a clean facility with many amenities that I would be interested in. The staff was very knowledgeable. She knew what she was talking about, and I was impressed with her. It would be more what I was looking for in an independent living facility."

"I was at Vi at Palo Alto for rehab. It was so fantastic. It was like being on a cruise. They were wonderful. All the physical therapists, the caregivers were very kind. I had my own room with a great view. The food was fantastic. I was in a wheelchair, but they invited me to the piano. They had a piano. Everybody got together listening to the piano. I'm also a vegetarian. They noticed that I wasn't eating very well, so they asked the nutritionist to talk with me. They were making me special meals of brie sandwiches and all that. They even brought me wine for dinner. The nutritionist, Joanne was a jewel. She came to my room and wanted to know what I would like to eat."

"My wife moved to Atria Sunnyvale. The facility was nice and clean, and everything was well organized. The rooms are fine. I was impressed with the gentleman that gave me the tour. He was very thorough in explaining everything about how their program worked, how they did things, and so forth. So he took the time to show me around."

"My aunt is at Crescent Oaks Memory Care. It's a nice place. I like everything about them. Their program director is really good because she's always got parties going on and she decorates everything for them. They have such a good time with all the activities. It's clean. Everybody seems to care. And most importantly, my aunt says that she's happy there and everybody's nice to her. When we had her in another place, she hated it there. But at this place, she has never asked to leave and she says she's happy there. They have a lot of activities and a lot of parties for every occasion. They have a once-a-month big birthday bash. They have people that come in and play piano or they have a karaoke singer that comes in and sings. Yesterday they had a big Christmas dinner, and they had a harp player playing Christmas music. The program director has everything decorated beautifully. There's a beautiful tree that the guests got to help decorate. It's just so nice there. I haven't eaten there, but my aunt eats everything off her plate, and she's a picky eater. It's all really good. I haven't found anything to complain about. The only thing I'm sorry about is the people that have to be there regardless. That's the only thing that saddens me when I go there. Everything else is just great. They're well taken care of, and so I think when something is like that, it's worth every penny."

"Meadow Gardens of Menlo Park was our second choice and I loved it. The outside of it was very pretty. There were multiple outside areas that the patients had access to, and they were very nice. It felt very welcoming. It was a small facility compared to some of the others, but it had that homey feeling. It didn't feel like an institution. The staff was wonderful, knew everything about the place, answered all of my questions, dealt with all of the issues, had solutions for everything, described the programs, just knew everything, and was very well informed. The dining room was very nice. When I was there, people were just going to eat. They had a small dining area and a larger dining area which seemed flexible and nice. Some of the people were eating in different places and they all seemed pretty happy with it. The rooms were very small. The shared rooms were very small and there wasn't even room for anything but a bed and a nightstand. The shower was down the hall versus in the room, but it was very nice. It was a bit dated, but to me, the most important thing was the program. The particular person that I was looking to place needs stimulation. The fact that the programs were good, I kind of overlooked some of the other stuff. I got a real positive vibe from them. I think people were happy, and they were busy. The whole facility was open within the gate and secured facility and it had open grounds. The facility is open to the clients so that they can go in and out."

"Silver Point Plaza was an old facility that needed updating. It did not meet the needs of my dad, but the staff seemed to be very friendly and eager. The place was clean and provided activities. "

"The Parkview RCH#2 is very nice, and the people are very nice. It's assisted living, and my wife moved there. She is currently out again because she's hospitalized. They provide activities like taking them out a little bit. Most of the elderlies are in wheelchairs, so they put them out in the backyard and do some light exercise or things like that. They make them comfortable. The residents get 3 meals a day. If they have a favorite food, they can ask for their favorite food."

"My mother-in-law will be moving into Belmont Village Sunnyvale. Tim, the sales guy, was very detailed. He asked a lot of questions as to what my mother-in-law's needs were. And I felt that because he was so detailed in trying to understand what her needs were, her needs would be met much better. They had a chef, so their menu was so ample and there was such a variety of food. I went into the dining hall, and I saw that there were a lot of seniors interacting with each other at the tables. They all looked happy and they were eating well. The quality of the food looked very good. They said we could join my mother-in-law any time, and it was $10 a meal for us. It was just so welcoming and warm there."

"I like Chateau Cupertino a lot because when I was there, they had all kinds of decorations, it made everything very homey. They had decorations everywhere. I like the homey-ness of that place. The person who was with me during the visit was very upbeat; she explained everything. It seemed like she was more upbeat than the other one. I like this place more because it felt more homey. The decorations made me feel a little bit more happier."

"I'm very interested in Villa Serena Retirement. If the seniors are considering a place to go, they have beautiful one-bedrooms, and some of them are far larger than other senior communities. You could get a large one-bedroom if you choose, and you could have a small kitchen in your unit, whereas at the other units, they don't give them that privilege. I highly recommend that place, no matter what happens. That is number one on my list. If I had the funds right here in my hand, I would take that in a heartbeat. I would put the money there because I'm so impressed. They have a beautiful garden, and the dining room is so beautiful. It's outstanding. It doesn't compare to any others. Another plus is that they give the seniors a panic button. Like if you happen to fall or need help, they come to your aid. They also have a van that takes you on tours if you need a ride to go to the city or what-have-you. You can't beat that. You get free cable and utilities. Everything is included. It's lovely. The staff was exceptional. The tour was beautiful. They had access to secure parking. I thought it was broken because I ended up parking and driving through there, and I had no idea that it was secured. Then I mentioned it to the director, and he said it was working, but they're going to update it, so that's great to know. Plus, he said I can have two parking stalls if I want to. I could have my travel van and a vehicle there. The director offered me a free meal to come there anytime I choose and test the quality of the food service that they serve there, and I said, 'Sure, I'll be delighted.' Their menus are exceptional. The dining room is exceptional. The facility is top-notch and very clean. It is impressive. Even though the outside of the building looks old, it doesn't compare to once you walk in. To me, the appearance of the outside could be updated. I feel like it could use some paint, and they need to redo the parking structure there, but other than that, the indoor is lovely."

"I toured Oakmont of Redwood City. They were all great. I would have been happy with any of them if I needed a place. Everyone was prepared when I got there. They have multiple movie rooms. They had a room for after-hours food where customers could help themselves to after-hours sandwiches and snacks and things. They had a rooftop garden area and it was nice with lots of seating for clients. They provided lunch for me and it was very good."
