Renaissance Village Murrieta

My favorite is Renaissance Village Murrieta. I like the surroundings. What I like best was the residents seem to be very happy and engaged. They could have their meals when they wanted to and not at a strict time. I liked that they had access if they wanted a snack, such as a sandwich, pudding, or a bottled beverage. They could go get it themselves. They have outdoor areas where they could sit. They allow pets, so they can bring their dogs. It just seemed like it was really geared towards the residents. Their movie theater was quite comfortable, but not sterile. They had art rooms. They had access to physical and occupational therapy in their really nice gym. There were a lot of details that were geared towards residents living healthy and maintaining mobility and independence, but still there were private apartments. I toured the assisted living, and then we did the memory care. There's the ability for Dad to stay as long as he can in the assisted living side with Mom. There was no detail unmet. Having cared for someone one-on-one in my home with help coming in, everything was built in. The staff seemed very, very caring, and the residents seemed very, very happy. Some of the residents were having a late breakfast. There were quite a few of them out there dining and sitting at tables with two or three people at a time making friends. You could tell there was a good social network, and that I like. They really encourage that, especially for their memory care residents. The place was beautiful. The rooms were very clean and very nice, but they were not sterile. It's homey.

Renaissance Village Murrieta was very nice. The lady that showed me around was very informative and not pushy. Their apartments were a lot larger than the other places that I visited. They have a movie theater and they could take the residents out. It looked like everybody was thoroughly enjoying themselves. They were willing to work with us no matter what and we were very pleased with them.

Renaissance Village Murrieta was beautiful and brand new. We toured it twice and Maria took us around and was outstanding. They offer lots of services and all the units were very spacious. The staff was incredibly friendly and cordial. When we were there, they had live music going on and their activity schedule seemed to have an awful lot. They had a great exercise area and beautiful common rooms, too. The only thing my mom did not like about it was there wasn't enough green space and outdoor activities. It felt too much like living in an apartment with no open space.

The girl that gave us a tour around Renaissance Village Murrieta was very nice and very knowledgeable in answering all the questions that I asked at the time. Plus, she gave me a little insight about the different levels of care, should I need it in the future. The place was just very nice and that would be my number one selection. Everything was up to par. It's new and I was very happy with what I saw. I wouldn't mind living in one of those apartments.

Renaissance Village Murrieta was a little corporate, a little large in its scale. Everything was impressive, clean, and neat, but it seemed a little sterile, I guess, and empty. I don't know if they were low on people, but there just didn't seem to be any people there. The staff was very nice, but very new, and didn't really have many insights about the property. She was friendly. The facility was large, clean, stately, and a little cold.

We went to the Renaissance Village Murrieta. My uncle liked it a lot, so he put a deposit on one of the rooms. He chose it because they had single apartments, he did not want to share a room and they had a single apartment that was the perfect size for him. He wanted lights, a lot of light in his room, so he was able to get a room that had a big picture window that looked over a pond and was more than happy with that. The staff was very helpful, she listened to his needs, and she showed us a few places. She just was very accommodating. There were several rooms like the theater room, living room, TV room, billiards room, and of course, the dining area. Everything had an elevator for upper floors and lower floors, no stairs which are good because he's not steady on his feet. It was very clean. It was very orderly. People seem happy. They were smiling. And the thing I liked about it the most was you had to wait at the door until someone came to ask you and they took our temperature and they made sure we were wearing a mask and that we had our shots. It had a beautiful piano playing that's on like a loop, and that was very comforting, that it wasn't just quiet. There was lively music and they said that they had happy hour on Tuesday night, they said that they had a bistro for snacks after breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was nice that he could just go in and get a piece of pie or get some water, bottled water, or soda, or whatever it is. They had a salon for extra haircuts, which is fine. He'd have to pay for a haircut anyway, but he was just very pleased. He was smiling, he's happy.

My mother-in-law and I toured Renaissance Village Murrieta, and it was wonderful. The person showed us all the rooms, the apartments, and the rec rooms. They also showed us the dining room, the physical-therapy room, and the theater room. They showed us around outside, and they had a little dog park there. They have a little snack bar too. It was just a wonderful experience. She has an amputated leg, so we went to see the assisted living. The dining area was huge, very nice, and very clean. My mother-in-law cannot wait to move in.

The community layout of Renaissance Village Murrieta was great. I liked that they had the possibility of my parents living together. My mom currently has a diagnosis of dementia, so she needs some extra care. It seemed like the activities were great, and my dad actually was very impressed with them. We saw multiple apartments and the main area, and we thought they were really nice. They have a movie theater, a game room, and lots of other amenities. It was all well put together. The apartments were quite larger and were nicer than what I had when I was younger. It's near a major street, just right off the 15 freeway, but you couldn't hear the noise at all. The building looked very new as well. I think it's only about fifteen years old, so it's a very nice building. Overall, it was very impressive. I only met one person, Anne, and she was amazing.

We visited Renaissance Village Murrieta. The lady that helped us, her name was Eileen. She was very good. She showed us all the rooms. They have the cottages, and then they have the main building. She showed us rooms that were available. I did not care for the cottages because they were too small, but the main building was nice. However, I left with a cold feeling. I did not see any patients around. I did not see any patients in the dining room, the lobby area, or in the hallways; that kind of bothered me. The lady was very nice, very knowledgeable, and super nice to my uncle. It is just that I got a cold feeling from the building and the fact that there was nobody up and about. They had a movie room, dining room, and a gym. There was one person that came out that was getting on the shuttle to go out, but that was all we saw.

Renaissance Village Murrieta was a lovely place. It is very clean, it has very nice people, and it has really nice grounds and amenities. My grandmother loves it, and the tour guide was very helpful. They have lots of amenities, and the rooms are really nice and clean; it was really well done. I saw the studios. She said we could come back and try the food there.

I would call Renaissance Village Murrieta resort-ish. I was very impressed. I would live there. Everybody was excellent. We saw the residents and they were perfectly content. They had things to entertain the residents, and that was impressive. They had games, like group games, and they were playing like kick ball in their chairs. It was very clean and very nice.

Dean

Renaissance Village Murrieta was really nice. The room was excellent. The interior was spacious. As far as activities outside, there wasn't a big space. The whole ambience was really nice. However, you like to have some places where residents can go outside and do more activities which they didn't have a whole lot. Well, the staff was really good, and the place was new.

Renaissance Village Murrieta is fine, the staff is very friendly, and helpful. The building itself is very upscale and nice overall. I saw a 1-bedroom and 1-bath, and it was fine. They have all the clubs, groups, and activities, but just on a smaller scale compared to my current community. It's a brand-new place and was probably 25% occupied during my visit. I would strongly consider it, except it's too far away from my family.

Renaissance Village Murrieta was very nice. I personally liked it a lot. It was very clean and the presentation was nice. The rooms were pretty nice too. They offered a studio and a 2-bedroom. The staff is very professional. They had a playground that the young kids could come and play on and a nice theater. It was one of my favorites.
